I am Legend

I had to be the first to say that I caved and just finished watching I am Legend. I put everything I had into this years drama and in return I received 2 free movie passes. We shipped the kids off for the night and then argued whether to see P.S I love you or I am legend. Needless to say I lost. For the record.....I do not go to the theater to watch scary movies. I would much rather sit in the comfort of my chair with my blanket just under my eyes and my knees curled up to my chest. Instead tonight I sucked it up. I sat right in front by the bar with my knees curled up to my chest and my jacket curled up under my eyes. I jumped so many times, I screeched so many times and I can honestly say that I was not the only one. All I can say is I do not want to turn out my lights and I made my body guard check every nook and cranny. Yes I am a woose but even my body guard admits that there were parts that were scary. All said and done the Unmentionables give I am Legend 4 batman symbols out of 5.

Vamoose!

O.k so here is the scenario as it happened in our house last night.

Mommy and Daddy are eating Pistachios and getting ready to watch a movie. In walks Ginny, Malakai and Keegan.

Ginny: Can I have what you have daddy?

Daddy: Here Ginny, now Vamoose!

Keegan: Can I have one?

Daddy: Of course Keegan. Here now Vamoose!

This whole time Malakai has a confused look in his eyes but a smile on his face.

Daddy: Here Malakai, here is one for you as well.

Ginny: Daddy! I want the same color that they got.

Daddy: Of course Ginny because that is the way things go around here! Here, now
vamoose! Vamoose! Vamoose!

Malakai: (With a smile on his face) Daddy, it's not a MOOSE!

And that concludes yet another funny moment out of Malakai's mouth. Stay tuned more to follow.

Laughter is the best medicine!

Here is a moment that made me smile. I had to share it with the rest of you. May this moment enlighten you as it has us. Have a great night and take some time to enjoy your own special moments.

The calm before the storm

We found this title the most appropriate seeing as that is exactly what it is. First let me tell you about the calm.

The calm was just that...So good for us. All the food you could eat, all the drinks you could drink. Time relaxing in the sun. Fun on Private beaches, swimming with dolphins, dance lessons, pool basketball, beach volley ball and so much more.

What we learn't about the calm....It is good to get away with your significant other to really touch base once and awhile. I learn't things in our relationship that I could improve on and things about myself that I had no idea he treasures. I learn't that over the years I have grown. Years ago if I had gone on stage and my pants had split I would have cried and never had shown my face again. "Yes you heard me right. My pants split on stage." All I can do is laugh and chalk it up as my most embarrassing moment.
We learn't how much we treasure each other and how we need to dedicate more time for just us more often. We learn't that we really need to hire our own maid and personal chef.

Now for the storm. I ended up catching some bug the day before we left. I was so sick I could barely walk. My parents were 1hr late picking us up from the airport. It took no time at all for the kids to get started on their bickering and tattling. While we were gone Erin slacked off in school and hid out in the bathroom with her friend so she didn't have to go to gym. Malakai's new phrase is "Holy Crap!" And there is now 4 scratches on our brand new counter top.

What we learn't about the storm....It is good to be home. I am now feeling some what better. Kids will be kids and they will eventually love each other. Erin is now going to be grounded for 2 weeks. Malakai will be brainwashed with a new phrase.. maybe one like Jesus loves me! As for the scratches, stuff happens. Our kids are alive, they are well, and they survived a week away from mommy and daddy. As for mommy and daddy we are rested, we are united and we are ready for the many storms to come. At least until next year.

Butterfly's in December

It is official. I am full of butterfly's. 2 1/2 hrs until production and I am going crazy. 8 hrs until our flight leaves and I am nervous about that more then anything else right now. Then there is 14 hrs until we land and then I can say AHHHHH! We are done. We are here. Our kids are at home. RELAX!
