Cool Mom Points!!!!!

Last nite we went to Mariah and Carl Reynold's house for a gator game party. It was fun. We got home after midnight and settled to sleep at 1am. So today is Friday. Payson got a 100% on his spelling test wednesday so he doesn't have to take it today. Gabs has a substitute b/c her teacher is a gator alumni. Sooooooo....translation? Mom gave the kids a skip day today. Yeah, I'm cool. I'm awesome. I made the kids repeat---"who is the awesomest mom in the whole planet world?????? "YOU ARE!!!!!!"
I did 4 haircuts during the game, which I usually enjoy. However everyone was yellling and jumping up, I almost stabbed a few of my clients! I seriously did! I like socializing and 3 of the 4 didn't talk much. Anyways, It was fun. Mariah had plenty of room for everyone , good food,and we even played a few games of slamwich while we were there. It was weird tho b/c it wasn't until the ride home I asked Vanir who won and he said the gators. No one even said anything. I mean these guys were loud and jumping around and no one yelled when they won. Or maybe I just zoned it all out by the end of the game. I brought the camera to take pics and put them on of the blog, but i was cutting hair and never got around to it. Oh well. I love all these get togethers. Can't wait to have one of my own!

Rockin' New Years Eve Party at Downey's

This party was so much fun! (of course it always is b/c all of my childhood friends are there) Gabby and I took the stage with our rendition of "Popular" from wicked and we brought the house down. Then, by request, and a little pushing, Amy and I did our 15 yr old "interpretive dance" to "Love of a Lifetime" by firehouse. (we learned this dance from our counselor at EFY a looooong time ago.) We have decided next year Amy and I will make up our own to a new song. Only b/c of the constant demands of our fans to bring them sonething fresh next year! Well, we have to please the fans so.....it shall be done. (amy just had a baby a few weeks ago so we never were able to practice)

This party has a mongolian BBQ which is excellent, but the line was long this year. (you make the chx, or meat, in a wok and add whatever you like) So it takes time. There is also round robin ping pong tournament, Rock band on the PS2- the teenagers like to play that, a trampoline, bounce house for the kids, a DJ, and a whole lot of people from 2 wards. (we just had a ward split and we are all still in denial and we all come to each others activities now) You get the idea---FUN!!! oh yeah, i forgot, karaoke too. I actually never got to go, I was up and it was a quarter to midnight so we paused and i never did it. Gosh, I probably disappointed alot of people! :) Maybe next year. Well, if you go on facebook you can see 15 minutes of the whole party with the Dj rapping, me "bustin a move" all over the place, the lines for mongolian BBQ, amy and I's interpretive dance, the works. It's hilarious. But usually when the Limas are around, it always is.

I have a few New Years goals that I am working on. Wish me luck.

1. make my bed. i have done pretty good on this lately.

2. read my sciptures daily.

3.be more positive.
