Here's a few things that are going on around here lately:
-Oaklyn was looking out the front window and crying her eyes out because "there are so many drugs out there." I'm guessing they learned about drugs at school. Combine this lesson with overly-tired red-headed syndrome, you get a tantrum about drugs in the world.
-Dan is now in his 30s. :) That officially makes him OLD.
-Londyn's hair fits in piggy tails officially.
-We have decided to hold Connelly back and not send him to kindergarten next year. This has been an extremely hard decision, but we've come to the conclusion that he would do better as the oldest in his class vs. making the deadline by 4 days and being the VERY youngest.
-Jousting on horses still exists. It's actually really fun to watch. Oaklyn had to dance at this medieval festival, and I felt like we were watching Sir Ulrich VonLichtenstein from Guilderland.
-Londyn has decided that tantrums are great...her mom disagrees. Molars are not fun for anyone in the house.
-When the water coming out of your tap is brown, it makes you wonder what you've been drinking for the last year.
-Having a pool across the street absolutely rocks until your kids decide to disobey...then it's just there to taunt you AND them.
-Sending Dan to Boston was one of the most fun things I've ever worked hard to earn. (I earned every penny doing pictures, making tutus...etc). This was his birthday present. He's going to visit his best friend who is at dental school there.
-I'm afraid I have sickness called r-itch...I just redecorated, but I WANT TO DO IT AGAIN! I'm afraid this will NEVER go away. Can I decorate your house?
-On a more serious note, I've had some neat spiritual experiences this week that I'm grateful for.
-My best neighbor friend had her TWINS this week. They are doing great and will be in the NICU for a few weeks.
-I had a nervous breakdown about clutter being in every corner of the house. We are officially CRAMMED into this place.
-I thought I had killed one of my household plants so I stuck it in the corner of the garage until I had time to take the dead plant out and re-plant something else. Come to find out...it's TOTALLY alive. Turns out all it needed was a break from me.
-I'm ready to hop on the motivation train again after I took a short break from my diet. Onward I go.
-My kids officially won't eat anything that I cook. We have good weeks and bad weeks, this one is a bad one.
-I'm so happy SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE is back on.
-I am still two weeks behind on LOST. I have to admit I am in a total crossroads with this show right now. I LOVE/HATE it. I think it's a bad sign when I don't have much of a desire to finish the season with only two episodes left.
-Putting away laundry bites. I like cleaning it...but I do not do well at putting it away.
Well, I know these were all random thoughts! Hope everyone is doing good.

We should make a girls night...and watch So You Think You Can Dance!! I think we all watch it! --And if we stay you can totally decorate my house!!
I too am having a war on clutter at my house. It looks clean-until a closet is opened. Then watch out! I think if I had any plants they would need a break from me. I loved this post. It was fun to read.
Love all the random thoughts!!! I can't believe you EVER hate lost! I LOVED this season!!! I couldn't get enough of it! I can't wait to see how it all ends!
I didn't know SYTYCD is back on! I love that show, too!!
I'm glad I'm not the only one dealing with clutter. THough I must admit, my house is probably the most clutter free it's been in a while. . . I still have a lot more to go through!! I'm determined to get back on my "Flylady system" this summer!! It REALLY works!! Check out www.flylady.org for more info!!
Love ya, AD
PS...kudos to you on earning the $$ to send Dan to Boston! I want to have a special to earn $$ to take Nate to the George Strait concert next month!! Would you hate me if I copied your special idea to earn the $ for it?!? I hope not!
Hang in there...things can only get better! Isn't it fun being an adult (and Mom, wife, etc.etc.).
Love ya tons!
Mom U.
The season finale of LOST is worth it! One of the best episodes yet, trust me, you want to watch it!
I loved your random thoughts! Dave is really excited for Boston. I'm so glad that he and Danny can go together. It should be a fun boy's weekend. Hope you guys are doing well. We miss you!
There's Jousting at Young Living farms in Mona! Saw it last year during Lavender Days, going again this year!
Liked your post!! I need to know what's happening in your life! You can help me decorate my basement..I have no idea what to do down there!! I hear that you might have something to decorate soon!
I despise putting away laundry! I can wash and fold all day long, but please don't make me put it away. GAAAK.
Oh, I live next door to my parents, and they have a pool, so I feel your annoyance there, too.
You always have fun posts, Brooke. Keep em coming!
