Oh My Shibberdegibbertdoopoop!?!?
Friday night was a bad night mixed with insomnia and not feeling well. At 5AM, Alayna came in asking where her “Big Planet” game was. When I asked why in heavens name she was up so early, she said that Kayla’s alarm had gone off for seminary. I guess when Kayla went to her slumber party, she forgot to turn it off.
Then I had to get up at 6AM to get Tyler up because he had the Showchoir Sweetheart tour all day. I saw Alayna downstairs on our nice couch with a huge bag of buttered popcorn (Tyler brought it home from the movie last night. He and friends went to Star Wars 3D without me. Rude!) I explained that she CANNOT have that downstairs because 1) that’s new carpet and 2) that butter will leak straight though the bag to seep grease into the nice couch. So, I took it back upstairs and tried to go back to sleep.
I woke up with a start of another migraine at 8:30 on a Saturday!! Grr! So, I started cleaning the house while Bob and Alayna took a load to the garbage dump and did the grocery shopping. Guess what I found on our nice couch?? The stupid bag of buttered popcorn and the greasy butter had seeped through into the entire arm of my couch. I was almost in tears. When she got home, I really laid in to her about how upset I was that she deliberately disobeyed me and ruined my couch! Her response? “Well, at least I didn’t cut it with a pocket knife”! Huh?
She went on to tell us how Tyler thought his iPod was lost in the couch so he cut the bottom open and tried to get it. So, Bob and I turn over the couch and sure enough there is a HUGE hole cut out!! Are you kidding me??? Bob and I ended up flipping the couch over and over. We could hear it ringing in the couch and couldn’t get the dang thing out. We finally had to unstaple the whole bottom to get it out of this small spot. Ugh! Bob got a splinter and I cut my finger on a staple. Argh!
Then the girls were supposed to be back from the slumber party to go help Bob set up for the ward party, but they showed up 2 hours late because they overslept. (Isn’t that what usually happens at a sleepover?)
*And no I didn’t take any pics because it broke my heart 
Show Choir
Tyler had his 1st showchoir performance of the year. He did a wonderful job and knows all the choreography, which probably comes easy to him since he watched dancers from the time he was born! His group also did the Sweetheart Tour yesterday where they performed at the mall and retirement homes.
Did you Know?
Bob and I had our 19th anniversary of the day he asked me to marry him. Friday, February 10.
Odds and ends
This week Tyler also had a band concert and the girls had New Beginnings for YW.
You will be shocked to know I have started a supplemental blog to post about things I try at home. Most of the ideas and recipes come from Pinterest. Its dorky, but in the world of dorks, I could be Queen. I pin everything I like on Pinterest, but there are things I actually want to try. I wanted a place to show what things I try work and what doesn’t, so feel free to follow along or not. It could be entertaining…

Not sure what to say here. So sorry. Do you have a warranty on that couch? The lady that sold us ours said EVERYTHING was covered except cat claws....that my kids could cut it with scissors and they would replace it, no questions asked. Ugh! What a weekend!
Oh man I am glad my kids aren't be only ones that make me want to pull my hair out. That is unbelievable. Sad I missed the ward party, but am so proud that you went!
Nina- i told the kids that when we move someday I am taking nothing but my birthday suit cause they ruined everything else!
Angela- I was literally dragged to the party and immediately installed my buffers. I have issues...
