Thoughts for today...So Far!!

Hello everyone, just thought I would "blog" about my day and stuff that I got going on.  Yes, because my life IS that interesting! LOL  Just Kidding I'm not that conceded :)  But we got this thing started so I'm gonna use it!  Well yesterday was a good day, despite the fact that my kids are getting sick, so is my Husband and as much as I want to fight it, my throat is a little sore too :(  Did have a once in a life time thing happen....We got stuck by the President of the United States, Mr. Obamas Motorcade!!!  I was probably 20 feet from the man and still, I wasn't impressed.  I made a post similar on FB and boy o boy did I start something.  Almost everyone was me though, so thats good!! LOL  We all have opinions which is what makes this country so great right!!  Well after the traffic jam, we went to dinner at P.F.Changs and all I have to say is Mmmmmm!  I would like to say that P.F.C is another restaurant that I found that let me bring in McDonalds Happy Meals for my kids.  Thats right you read it right, we had their food and my kids had Happy Meals!!  I know that they won't eat anything on the menu, so I don't even fight it!  The staff thought it was a GREAT IDEA in fact, and so did the table next to us.  She said she was going to tell her daughter about our little trick so that way her and her husband could go out to eat more often!  I say who knows your kids better than you, and you do what you gotta do so that you and your husband can still have a GREAT TIME!!!  Which we did :) 
Thats it for now so.........YAYA everyone!!!

Birthday Weekend!!

I can not believe that I'm beating Mrs. Ashley to this post.  She is going to say it's because she was busy with all the weekend festivities, but I'm here to tell you it's because her son turned 10, that would be TEN, or I could say a DECADE, no I think just saying 10 is good, she herself has turned OLD and SLOW!!  LOL 
I look back to the day he was born and think HE was the start of us going from Friends to Family :)  (Awwww Moment)  It is true though!!  I would like to say thanks for a GREAT weekend and I can't wait to see some Pictures!  CONRATS Kyle on making the big 1-0!!

YAYA

My First Post!!

Well I'm excited because this is my FIRST POST!!!  Let me start off by introducing myself, I'm Laura, a PROUD member of the YAYA's  for what is goodness, 10+ years!  Man I just made myself seem old! LOL  This is my Family, my Husband Dennis and my kids Hailey and Corbin.  They are 3yr old twins and boy do I stay busy.  I try to keep myself grounded by having what I like to call "Me Time", which includes playing around with Photography, (tying to get a better shot then Ashley) lol and Selling Pampered Chef.  I love the product and what it has been able to do for me AND my family.  I cant wait, because soon I will be posting about how you can win FREE stuff and holding little competitions...Fun Fun :) 
I also want to use this blog to talk about my kids, maybe vent about my husband, and really just have Girl Time with anybody who needs it.  Our 3 families certainly have adventures and I cant wait to tell you all about them.  So until next time........

As promised, here is the first card i made for the anniversaries. This one was for Kimmy (had to be a cake). I used the Wild Card Cartridge for this one and some stickles. She liked it, so mission completed!



This card I made for Laura, and I didn't use my cricut for this one, which was a little odd for me. It turned out cute and she loved it all the same. Sometimes you gotta just change things up!
