FOUR.......TEE!

I must confess......... I married an older man. I mean....he practically robbed the cradle because he is so much older than me. Today, he has one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. Yep, you guessed it.........He turned FORTY! But just because he is an old man does not mean that I love him any less. In fact I love him more!
Today at work, somebody gave him a headstone as a present. I guess that I will just have to take mine back and find him a different present!
HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY KENDALL!

p.s. go broncos!

Organic Adventure!!

So....I have made the decision to only buy Organic foods. Why you might ask?? Well, it is a long story. To start off, Madison and Avery have a autoimmune disorder called Alopecia Areata. Basically the disorder is whenyour immune system attacks your hair follicles and causes your hair to fall out. Pretty sucky right? Not much is know about the disorder and there are no know cures. Right now, Madison is suffering what we call a loss. This is her 3rd loss. Avery has had 3 in his life time to. I as a mother have been in duress of this for the last month wondering what I can do to help. I have though and prayed about this a lot. I keep going back to the Word of Wisdom......I follow that right???? Well, I guess when I look at it I could be better. The phrase; "IN SEASON" keeps popping out to me. I mean let me explain it like a tomato. I love a garden fresh tomato. I have been know to take a salt shaker out to a tomato field and just eat away. Now..... a tomato in a grocery store is just nasty to me. Eww...they taste gross....nothing like a fresh tomato. I guess that the difference is that a garden fresh tomato is not laced with chemicals to make it grow bigger or keep the bugs off. It is not pick green and had chemicals put on it to ripen it up. I just have a strong feeling that it is the chemical and hormones and pesticides that are put on non organic food that are causing the problems with my kids. I call it my personal revelation that I have been praying for. Now, you would think that going organic would be fairly easy, but it is not. I mean have you seen the cost of organic meat?? YIKES!! But, I have made a commitment to treat the source of the problem and not the symptoms. Now four members of my family are on board with the organic, two are not. I do not see what the big deal is but Dyllon and Avery are fighting me big time. THE BUGGERS! They keep telling me that they won't eat it and that they need MAN FOOD. I think that they are food morons! I was really proud of myself on Sunday for making an all organic meal. We had roast chicken, potatoes and carrots and a fresh fruit salad. It was so good.........but Dyllon and Avery would not know because they were fighting so much about organic and telling me how stupid I was that I told them that they were not welcome to eat at my table. So there! I am so mean! I hope that they do not starve, because I am not buying anything different for them.

When you look at the pictures do you see nasty and gross food? I really do not see a difference. I have tried to explain to them, but they are denser than a bran muffin that has been sitting out for 3 days! Anyway..... I am excited to go on this new adventure. I mean really you can just make about anything using organic ingredients that you can using other ingredients. Hopefully, we will start seeing some new hair growth for Madison soon.

Oh.....and while I was looking for pictures if organic foods I came across this picture of ORGANIC COKE! Won't Kendall be happy! Now, I can just find organic DR PEPPER!

14 and counting..............

Oh my.........can you believe that this girl is 14?????? I can still remember the day when I found out that I was pregnant with her. It was a snowy day. I was not feeling well........Avery was about 4 months old. Kendall was outside shoveling the driveway.....seriously it was about 8 feet high around the garage. It just kept snowing and he kept shoveling that year. I took a test...............I passed it I guess be cause I got a +. I called Kendall in and told him. I think that I stressed him out because you should have seen him shovel after that!

For her Birthday, all that she wanted was money. So that is what I gave her. I think that she was disappointed. So later in the day I took her to the dentist because she was complaining about her tooth hurting...................and they pulled it for her. HAPPY BIRTHDAY AUSH!

She also had the youth etiquette dinner on her birthday! We made her go..........we are so mean! I did take over a bouquet of balloons, a happy birthday tiara, a confetti gun and I put candles in her brownie sundae and took it in so the whole youth group could sing Happy Birthday to her. I am a super awesome mom to embarrass her like that!

Go Here......

What did you say???

This is Nolan.........

This is Brody.............

They are three. Sometimes they say the darnedest things. They were playing with Thomas and friends trains and Nolan turned to Brody and said: "Hey..........don't touch my boobs!" I just about peed my pants laughing so hard!

Stalker

Last night was sooooo exciting! I learned that I have my 1st blog stalker! I know.....Cool huh! My friend Tina says that her friend thinks that I am the funniest person that she has never met! Her friend probably said that I was the funniest looking person that she had never met. It is probably just a big misunderstanding! Well.....anyway! WELCOME BLOG STALKER! I hope that I can continue to make you laugh! It is a lot of pressure though!

Happy Birthday Avery!

Today Avery is 15. Well, if I am being honest......he was 15, 4 days ago. I did however create a draft on his birthday to fool everyone into thing I was an awesome mom and posted this on his actual birthday! Some things about Avery: He is a friend to all. This boy has so many friends that it is scary to have a birthday party. Really it seems that I buy a present a week because one of his friends is having a birthday! He is awesome at any sport that requires a ball. He just has raw natural talent. He is super stubborn. He only will wear one kind of shoes: VANS! He is a good student and works hard in school. We LOVE him! Just thought that I would warn everyone that he will be getting his drivers permit anytime...............you have been warned!
