I've been a slacker :)

Nothing new has happened around here, we are still boring as ever! My parents took the kids out to Whitney Pockets on Friday for a little camping trip. They were in heaven (the kiddos), dirt + 4 wheelers + rocks + no mom or dad around = FUN! I headed out on Saturday evening to spend the night and planned on staying most of Sunday out there before heading home. My mom had Mon and Tues off of school and so they were going to stay until Monday. Well Sunday when we got ready for our ride it didn't look to sunny and before too long it was raining. It's a good thing ole Mikey has a coat fetish because we all stayed warm with his coats!!! Anyhow, after our short ride we headed back to camp and started packing up. My dad was anxious to get home... It cleared up once we pulled out but it was too late. But the kids had a great time and it was nice to get out of town for a bit!

We had a great Halloween - the kids loved knocking on the doors and holding their bags out to collect candy. We went to a couple of the neighbors houses, then to a couple of friends and hit Grandma & Grandpa's circle! We were home by 9 and I was asleep by 9:30!!! We hope everyone had a night full of fun and good candy!

Thursday on ELLEN...

*Zac Efron*

*Nick Jonas*


Another great show with AwEsOmE prizes!!! Yes, Zac Efron was on the show... along with Clint Eastwood and Nick Jonas. We got to take home the XBOX360, $100 target card, a pink controller and a dog tag necklace from Nick Jonas. Kirstin is moving up in the talk show world (she was a go-go dancer on Regis & Kelly), she was a constestant for Zac or Smack - she was gaga over Zac and he's beautiful eyes! She was on cloud 9!!! Here we are with the goods...

Wednesday on ELLEN....

*Jennifer Love Hewitt*

*Kellie Pickler*

*Mario Lopez (surprise guest)*

*We made it in an Ellen pic*


Oh My Goodness... I don't even know where to start! We saw ELLEN, danced with her (well kind of by her), sat in the FrOnT row and we even got a wave from her. We had sooooo much fun! The employees liked us so much, they asked us to stay for a second taping! We scored a Kellie Pickler cd in the first show!

*This is how she rode most of the rides!*

*Horrible pic of me but this was on Splash Mountain... caught the moment!*

*Kirstin & Steph*

We had so much fun on our little girls trip away! We left Saturday and it took us a while to get to our destination because I had to stop at Mervyn's and we stopped at the outlets. Sunday morning we hit Disneyland and stayed for most of the day/night. Brooklin was excited to see all the characters but didn't know about the rides. She didn't really like the roller coasters at all - she would put her hands over her eyes for the entire time and peak through on occasion! We broke her in early and put her on the Matterhorn and later we took her on Splash Mountain - she didn't want to get wet and she did! I think we did the Jungle ride about 4 times and Winnie the Pooh about 4 times! We were able to meet some of the princesses; Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Ariel and Aladdin. We saw most of the characters twice... we had a lot of fun but we were pooped out by that night. Brooklin fell asleep before we even got on the bus and when we got back to the room she woke up and said, "How did we get here?" It was quite cute!
Day 2: we started at California Adventure and hit a few rides, had lunch, watched Brooklin get soooo tired and lay down in the middle of a bridge. About half way through the day we headed back to Disney to catch a few rides we missed. We also did Downtown Disney and hit Build a Bear!
Day 3: Brooklin and grandma stayed at the hotel while Kirstin and myself went to ELLEN! We had such a blast... we are definitely going back again!
We ended up getting home around 3am and everyone had to work in the morning, so we were running on empty! I think it's finally catching up to me today... I'm ready for a nap!
