Random Mae

So Mae has decided that she is a big girl and needs to get her hair done like mommy, We were over at Kylee's house getting my hair done and Mae just kept saying "Kyee paint hair!" So Kylee pretending to do her hair for a second and Mae was so happy!

Mae's little friend/cousin just turned 2 and had a little princess party and here Mae is all ready to go!

This girl really enjoys cupcakes way to much!

Balloon Fest!

Here's my cute grandparents that I believe started this tradition! Every year on the fourth of July we get up real early and go to the balloon festival!

Here's my mom holding Mae watching the balloons inflate

Aunt Jo Jo giving Mae a lift

Bye Bye!

I'm not enjoying this at all! Ha ha

The Whole fam, minus Cody, who was just to lazy to get his butt out of bed, my dad even went! I don't know the last time that happened! Next year we will get Cody there!

Cute uncle Cayden is so fun!

Getting All Grown Up

Little Miss Mae has decided she is all grown up!
She is to big to go potty on the little girl potty, "No mom! Big Potty!"
We can no longer take bathes because mom and dad don't take baths, "No mom! Shower!" In fact, she likes to shower so much that I can't even get a shower in without her! She hears that faucet turn on and shes a running! " Mae Shower too!"

The last few weeks we've started doing a family date night. We'll go grab dinner and then if Mae is nice through dinner we go to Red Mango and get Ice Cream. And Mae is pretty peticular about what ice cream she gets! We thought we'd get her the yellow ice cream with fruity pebble topping, but no, she gave that one to dad and took the bigger ice cream. Next time we got her the pink ice cream, "No Mom! This one! Ok!" and she took my ice cream. And there was no trading back or having bites from her ice cream! It was pretty funny! So we go with the original yogurt ice cream with chocolate chips!

Viva Las Vegas!

We took a little getaway last week to good old Vegas! Mostly we just hung by the pool, and went out to get some terrific food! My kind of vacation!

Maytag Blue Cheese Truffled Potato Chips from Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill, INCREDIBLE!!

The last time we were in Vegas we tried out Diablo's, I think it is a tradition in the making! Spectacular food and even better Margaritas!


We were also able to get really good tickets to Mystere! We were on the 2nd row! Although I can't really tell you what the story line was, I was captivated! It was absolutely incredible!

Heaven Sent

These tasty little treats have gotten me through a lot! A bad day can be turned upside down but one of these "Little devils" from Dippidee..... hmmm delicious!

Before & After!

I'm so lucky to have a handy husband who goes along with my fun decorating ideas! So our bedroom, I've never really loved it... our furniture was all stuff we had from before we got married. We did get a fun comforter but that was it. So we decided to paint! EVERYTHING!

We painted the walls and all of the furniture! I even painted the walls 5 times! First 3 coats were done and I decided I hated the paint, so back to the paint store for grey clouds! Still didn't quite nail it but I still think it looks pretty good! And eventually I think I'll get a white comforter for my bed but we already had this one and it looks alright!!
So the bathroom! ahhh... the bathroom has never been what we wanted it to be. We had this beautiful spa like bathroom in mind... ya not so much. It just didn't get there.I think we finally achieved it! Ha ha I think Cody's just thinking it will help the house sell but I'm glad we get to actually enjoy the bathroom we envisioned while were here!

Retro Night!

My Cute friend Cara is moving away to Texas, so we got together to have one last FUN, Crazy night!

Wickedly Wonderful!

Arriving for the experience of a lifetime!Here we are in our seats, goofing off waiting for the experience to begin!

You can kind of see the set in the background, it was amazing! The entire show was absolutely incredible! I couldn't believe it had been 3 hours by the time it ended I was so enthralled it seemed like no time at all had passed! I can't tell you how much I loved it! It was so fun!! Thanks to the wonderful ladies I was able to go it! It was a blast!

Easter Egg Fun

Mae had so much fun painting Easter eggs! She painted each egg by hand with a paint brush and she did over 2 dozen eggs. And was still saying " More egg! More egg!" It was so fun!


The 3 glittery ones were the only ones Cody and I were allowed to do, once she realized we were stealing eggs it was all over!

The obsession begins!

Today we were getting ready to go, Mae was all set but I told her to hold on cause Mommy needed to get her purse. "Purse, Purse, Mae's purse?" She started hopping around the kitchen asking for her purse. So I pull out her new Easter purse and she gets so excited, puts it on her arm and walks to the door. She carried it like that all through the store! One lady thought she was so cute she even gave her a nickel to carry in her purse. It was so cute! I guess I've taught her well!! Shoes and purses are a girls best friend!
