My New Facebook Profile Picture

That willie warmer is so cute! I'm gonna have to pick one of those up for sure. I love the sweater idea too. We should have a friends Christmas party and wear ugly sweaters or jumpers and Keds like my mom used to wear. We could be so stylin' for the holidays. I will be in town Dec. 17th thru the 27th. We really need to all get together!

A little Christmas Cheer! A Penis/Willie Warmer for your Love

Ok, so first off I have to say I love the website Etsy- I think they have such cute things. So Nick and I have this terrible tradition we started that we give each other Ugly christmas Sweaters to wear on Christmas Day- so I started searching for some and ran across this wonderful little gift for my sweetheart! Seriously, I almost died laughing thinking that somebody not only came up with this idea, but then actually made them. I say we give kudos to this girl by sharing this with all our friends and keeping her busy for christmas. When is Everyone coming into town?

Love to you all

So I had to have my wedding ring cut off of my finger on Saturday. Maybe I will post a picture of my beautiful finger. I took a slap shot to my finger tip at my first time back to ice hockey in almost two years. Owe! it hurt so bad but I couldn't cry because I was playing with all boys. Speaking of wedding rings... Do you all have the same ring you got married with? And, do you ever take it off? I would never take it off for anything (except for the last trimester of my pregnancies which actually makes for about a year if you add it together). I gasped when the guy cut it off not only because it was a total relief of blood that was pressurizing in my finger but also because I looked down and saw my little ring laying there broken in three pieces.

What do you do?

What do you do when you find yourself at the grocery store with three crying kids?

Answer: Start crying yourself!!

That was me at the store today. I think everyone was wondering," what was wrong with HER and HER KIDS! ARGH!!

Feeling Old!!

I don't know if y'all know this but my husband loves old school rap. The underground stuff- not the catchy stuff we used to listen to in high school, or what's played on 92.5. Q-Tip from a Tribe Called Quest was at the Gallivan Center last night and Nick wanted to go. I was up for going- something to do instead of sitting on the couch, sounded nice. We arrived downtown- and there were a few hundred people- not too many- not too crowded. It was nice- good people watching, but then the crowds started arriving, and my personal space was being crowded and it hit me- we are old!!- look at all these young things walking around in their "coolest urban attire", getting as close to the stage and the speakers as they could- wearing high heels and standing for hours on end. I used to be one of those girls- going to concerts- hanging with the crowd- not caring how loud, the music was, and how close people were standing next to me- feeling that vibrating rhythm resonate through my bones. What happened to me?? I am tired of standing, I am sick of cigarette smoke wafting around me, my head feels as though it is going to break open, and if one more person bumps into me, I might scream! At what point do we cross that line and become our parents?? Actually, I don't think either of my parents would be caught dead at a rap concert- but you know what I mean. When do our insides and our brains decide, Damn! I am too old for this!? I was glad we went, it was fun, but my aching head, pounding ears and bloodshot eyes this morning made me think- Wow, I can't deny it anymore- I am old!!

Private

Should I go ahead and make the blog private and send invites out to our friends? It seemed like everyone thought we should make it private when I asked. What do you all think?
