Land of The Living!!!!

Yes, we are all flu free and my surgery went VERY well!

I promise to start and catch up on the blogging as I can now start to sit at the computer for long periods of time......**winks,giggles**

I need some feed back though.

Please click on the bottom of this post where it says: Leave us some love and leave a comment as to your wanting details of the surgery or not.

I have a lot of both sides and need some feed back so I know if I should or should not post details....

Thanks and hugs and kisses to you all!

FLU ANYONE!

Yes, I'm behind and it's the flu's fault!

So here we are January 5Th and so far 2009 has been celebrated with some enemies called RALPH AND DRAGON POOPS! (::YUCK::!!!)

These are NOT really our friends nor do we like to keep them close (as they say keep you friends close and your enemies closer..) **giggles**

Both kids now have the flu! Preston started with it on New Years day morning....

HAPPY NEW YEAR! :::NOT:::

He still has it and ralphed all over my bed this morning:::::(don't you just LOVE how I share with you)***winks***giggles***and tears too!

Then poor little miss Ella came home from school today and started with the Dragon Poops and has moved onto our frien-emy Ralph......

So we have had a LOT of tears, panic, wining, you name it. It's been experienced here in the WIGHT HOUSE!

Now most of the panic and some of the tears I'll have to admit have been mine. I'm beginning to freak out a little. My surgery has been scheduled for this Friday, January 9Th. So as you can imagine I do NOT want to get SICK nor do I want to go to the hospital leaving my babies behind being sick either!

Thank goodness for Mom's though. My Mom is coming bless her heart tomorrow to watch the sick kiddos so I can make my Pre-Op Appointment with my Dr. and Jeremy can come with me. What would we do with out MOM'S!

I better go and tend to my little munchkins. Jeremy is at the gym and Sue is out buying me some much needed supplies.

I'm not sure if or when I'll be able to blog next. Since the kiddos are sick and my surgery is Friday and I'm trying to catch up on things.

Sooooooo until the next post.....pray for me!

Please send our frien-emies away quick!!!!

:::***winks, giggles, tears, and much needed rest***:::

XOXOXO

HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A WONDERFUL NEW YEAR!

MAY THIS YEAR BE PROSPEROUS AND FLU FREE FOR YOU!

I don't wish our frien-emy on any of you......

Way Behind!

Here it is December 30Th and the New Year is just around the corner and I still have so much to post about..... Where does the time go. I'm making this short as I'm not feeling too well I think I have a little touch of the stomach flu. YUCK! I've only eaten saltine crackers today and am way tired......

So I'm not going to down load the camera (sorry Mom and Taryn). I'll try and get to that tomorrow.....*winks*.

I did promise a photo of the snow on the mountains behind the house though. So here is a photo that I snapped on my cell phone from the Target parking lot the other day since I forgot the camera **giggle**.

I did update the background on the blog per Miss Ella's request. Enjoy! **winks and giggles*

We had a GREAT Christmas and hope you all did too. Much love and as our kids Great Grandma Claire put it you only have 360 days until next time......ugh. Seriously it's fun and especially the stage the kids are at now.

Christmas Eve!

As I'm sitting here typing away I have many creations going on in the kitchen. Oh my gosh I don't think I've taken pictures.... I better go do that so I can show you all some of my creations....Cakes, cookies, Christmas scents, and the list goes on....

Tonight we celebrate Christmas with my family. I am part Norwegian and we celebrate on Christmas Eve. So it's off to the parents house to celebrate with: Mom, Dad, Sister Erin, Brother-in-Law Todd, Nephew Bryce, Niece Taryn, Jeremy, Ella, Preston, and myself. I'm sure it will be a late night with lots of yummy food, treats, laughter, and gifts.

I will try and take a photo of the tree but I'm warning you it's a beautiful tree but the decorations are not so much. It's been really hard keeping little man away from the tree. I thought this year we would be good but not so much. He keeps re-arranging them or throwing them behind the tree or who knows where. I did find a couple in the toy box.....Oh, well boys and 2 year old boys will be as they feel fit....***giggles*** I've really learned to pick and choose my battles when it comes to some of these things.....***he, he, ha, ha*** all you can do is laugh at times....

I better jam I hear the timer going off and I don't want to burn anything!

Merry Christmas to you all.

Love

~XOXO~

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY APRIL & JAY COBB!

Today we would like to give a BIG "Happy Anniversary" shout out to April and Jay!

"HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!"

I'm not sure how many years today is but I couldn't let today go by without wishing them all the best. April and I have known each other our entire lives. How you say can that be possible.... Well her parents and my parents were really good friends and April's Mom Carolyn and my Mom Donna were pregnant with us at the same time. It just so happens that April was born February 1st and then 12 days later I was born on February 13Th.



We have been friends ever since and keep in touch where ever we are and no matter what's going on in our lives. I feel like I have another sister. That is an older sister....**giggles** Seriously though she is a very important person in my life and she married a very nice man named Jay. They now live in Utah and have three beautiful kids.



I wish we lived closer to each other and could celebrate your Anniversary or I'd watch the kiddos so you could go out and have a good time with the Hubby.

Happy Anniversary and enjoy it no matter what you do.

Love you

~XOXO~

Waiting to see Santa the big Ho, Ho!

Here are some photos of the kiddos waiting in line to see Santa or as he's called Ho, Ho.

Look at those smiles!

It helps to have your tong sticking out you know.....

Ella always has a beautiful smile. Mr. Man checking out the girls behind us.....doesn't he look like he's trying to play it cool! Just too stinkin cute! *giggle*

Mr. Man I know this will get the girls attention.....it did. **giggles**

So stinkin cute! Always a smile on her face.



Finally, we get to sit on Santa's lap and look at Preston with grump face..... Oh, well they are still just too cute! I LOVE them so much!

RAIN ANYONE!

According to many it's been tooooo long since I've blogged sooo....

My computer guy whom I call my hubby has my computer working so within the next couple of days I promise to start to post some photo's. Until then I'll update you on some of my rambling thoughts of the weather this week....

Here in the Resort Country we have had some very, very, cold and interesting weather. It's been between 45 and 55 degrees during the day. Can you imagine when it was as high as 110 or so during the summer...*giggle*

We have had a LOT of rain this week. It's nice to have rain but not when it's an over kill and doesn't have a chance to soak in and help but rather destroy anything in it's path.

Wednesday we had rain like no other rain before. It NE~V~ER stopped the entire day. We woke around 6:00 am to rain and went to bed around 11:45 pm with rain. I even pulled out my rain boots (they are super cool too black with white polka dots on them)***giggles***

This cold and rain is so incredible we even have snow on the mountains behind the house. Yes SNOW! Can you believe it! **giggles** There has NE~V~ER been snow on these mountains before! I will try and take a photo tomorrow to post for you all to see.

It's a white Christmas here in the OC!!!

I better jam and I promise to post photo's soon since the ol computer is up now.

Hugs & Kisses
XOXO

Hope all of Santa's little helpers are almost done!
