Lashes... anyone?

Shallow post warning!
I was watching Rachel Ray the other day and they had a plastic surgeon on. He started talking about this brand new product called latisse that you just apply on the bottom of your eye lid by your lash line and it in8-16 weeks you grow thicker, darker and longer lashes! Sounds like a dream come true to me!

"Ski-ning"

Ok so I have been a lazy blogger lately but my kids have been sick for weeks it seems. We finally got away last weekend and went to Ruidoso to go skiing or ski-ning as Ryder called it. We all had so much fun. Jamison went a few times with Grandpa and then just took off and started skiing on the harder hills all by himself. Kason had some lessons with Grandma but then we had an "accident" getting onto the ski lift and he was a little scared after that. Ryder loved it and went with Jared. And seriously, this is my kind of skiing. Man made snow and 60 degree weather, no cold toes!! Here are some pictures of the fun! We also went to a tubing park the next day and the boys LOVED it. Even Tanner went down the "baby hill" and would not get out of his tube. I pulled him around for an hour! We plan on making this a yearly tradition!





I took the boys on the gondola ride up to the top of the mountain

Living Room Remodel

I still need new carpet laid and my wall hangings all put back up, but here is my new living room so far. I like it, I am just not sure about the fireplace being darker brown. Maybe it's not the right shade?? Any opinions?

IT'S A GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After having 4 boys, a male cat, and a male dog it is finally a GIRL. Introducing the newest member of our family "foosa" as jared is calling her. Isn't she cute?? She is Echo's puppy and since i just LOVE dogs why not have another one (ha). I am finally not the only female around the house!

Blankie Love

When i was little i loved a blanket, his name was "blankadine". He was blue and pink knitted and how i wish i still had him :( Seems like someone has taken after his mommy when it comes to blankets. This little boy carries his blankets around everywhere too! But, he is a picky blankie boy- only the minky blankets will do. Sometimes he carries 2 or 3 around with him. When he is upset he asks for "din dee" He even found a drawer of my sewing fabrics with scraps of minky and carries around the scraps too! I love my little blankie boy!

The First Snow... (well sort of)

A few days ago the boys woke and and began screaming, "it snowed, it snowed!!" They were so excited they rushed to their rooms and begin putting on their winter coats, gloves, and hats. Then they rushed outside to play in the snow. They have been waiting and even praying for it to snow so they were so excited. It was more like a "light frost" but some had accumulated on the trampoline so they got on there and made snowballs. It was gone by 10 a.m. but they were sure happy about the "first snow."
