Spoiled rotten

Ok so usually the boys get to pick what they want for breakfast and I make it. Today when I asked Croix what he wanted he said: pancakes,eggs,ham,bacon,hashbrowns! I asked him, what do you think this is a resaraunt to which he replied"Yes and don't forget the OJ" While he was eating he proceeded to tell me the mornings would be alot easier if I could just make him a menu!!!!!

FOREVER!!!!

Man it's been forever since I've benn on here. I think I forgot all about it! I've been rediculously busy. We moved to a new house on Alexander and Rainbow. Croix moved schools,he sad cause he doesn't got to school with Vic's kids anymore. I have been helping dad set up his new business here in town. So he has been going back and forth between Tucson and Vegas. When he is in town he stays at our house. I love it,except he gets up way too early!!!! Mess finally went back to work so I have her girls Mon-Fri. I love them, hate getting up at 7!!!! Thats like two hours too early for me.

Croix's face is finally starting to heal thanks to copious amounts of mederma for kids!! That stuff is not cheap. Hopefully we will get him some new portfolio pics soon so he can start doing his modeling and movie auditions that he loves!! He also loves playing baseball and tends to use anything he finds as a bat and ball!

Chaiz loves having his cousins to play with everyday. He is such a mommas boy that I still can't get him to stay the night at Nanas or aunties. He follows his brother everywhere and drives him crazy!! He asks everyday to go to school but only if hes in Croix's class!

Shawn is still working hard at Big 5 waiting for his final promotion to making the big bucks. Helping dad on his day off. He hates having a day off cause it's too boring. So he goes to work with dad and does 10 hours of hard labor. So weird,who wants to work their butt off when they are not being paid!!!

I still love my margaritas and playing volleyball,can't wait till the next tournament in Utah to go play! Just got a cool new kitchen appliance,cause I'm a freak and love all the different gadgets!!! I'm addicted to food network!!

I'm planning our halloween party for saturday. Still trying to find fun food.

Please log on to www.lvmpd.com click on sex offenders and put in your zip. Please check on the safety of your kids

very disturbing,beware!

Some people know for the last 2 years we have lived in Tracy California. If you have been watching the news you probably have heard what happened to Sandra Cantu. Well she lived only a few house down from where we lived and Croix used to play with her everyday after school. We lived in a small community and most of us would let our kids go to the little park and play together. Croix had his phone and would call every 15 minutes to check in so I never really worried about him.

If you don't know the story Sandra is an 8 year old little girl who fot kidnapped from right outside her house on March 27, 10 days later they found her dead in a suitcase in a ditch. 2 miles from her house!!! They have now arrested a ministers granddaughter who lived 2 houses down from her. The womans name is Melissa and they say she has always had mental problems and been in jail a couple times.

Now I'm sure everyone is thinking why would I put this on here. I just want everyone to know that no matter how safe you think your neighborhood is, you never know who is living next door. You can go on nvlpd website and click on the sex offender link and it will tell you every registered sex offender within 10 miles,their picture,where they live, where they work. 18 sex offenders live within a 2 mile radius of our house on decautur and 215 south.
Croix goes to Don E hayden elementary 27 sex offenders in 2 miles.

Please look out for your kids!!!

uuugghh planning

I hate planning parties let alone a wedding!! We are getting married on Aug 8 on a paddle boat on the Colorado River. That part was easy its the planning of the reception that is hard. Luckily we are having it at the Edgewater Hotel and Casino so their wedding planner is a big help. Can't we just get married at the Elvis Chapel of Love???

Loving Life

I have to say I love my life,when your biggest worry is that your Rachael Ray pots and pans have taken over a month to get here then you know things are going pretty good. I know I am such a lucky girl, my kids are very well behaved and except the occasional heartattack from Croix and his crazy stunts the boys never give me any problems. Shawn works really hard to provide us with everything we want. I have to say that me and my boys are spoiled rotten.

So my new favorite thing is ordering all the cool stuff I see on the food network,and I have a lot of cool kitchen gadgets. So for christmas Shawn ordered me the Rachael Ray pots and pans. I have had to call three times because they haven't gotten here. So after two sets of free spatulas and a free years subscription to her magazine they finally got here, 47 days after they were supposed to be.

I know its something petty to complain about,but I really wanted them:)

Alright so it has been awhile but I have been ridiculously busy. December was a blast. Vic and I took the kids down town to hand out food and McD cards to the homeless, the kids asked a lot of questions and learned a lot. We went to the cabin on Mount Charleston with everyone and played in the snow and opened lots of presents. Christmas was fun, the boys are completely spoiled and they know it. Croix got pretty much everything that Tony Hawk (his favorite skateboarder) makes. Clothes skateboard,ramp,shoes,helmet pads. Chaiz got his first skateboard and bike,luckily he hasn't hurt anything yet. Knock on wood!!
Croix finished soccer and just started basketball this week. He is a little unhappy that for the first time he is not the best player on the team because he plays with 9 year olds. He has started getting more calls for modeling and stuff and has his first movie audition tomorrow, a DISNEY movie. We are all crossing our fingers he gets a part.

I have started playing on a womens volleyball team in UT again. And if anyone knows how bad it hurts to play again after a year. I am still in pain 5 days later!!! But its awesome and I am so glad to be playing.
