more hat hair

Hat Hair

It snowed the other day and we had some serious hat hair going on. . . and I got a long awaited camera for christmas so I need to practice on someone.

professional bike rider!!

So she did it! First try with little help. . . she has officially ditched the training wheels. She has some crazy balance skills that she probably didn't get from me. I was pretty amazed she just took off.

So far potty training is still in #1 place for the hardest thing you will have to do with small children.

later. . . hopefully sooner. . . I know I have pretty much given up on the blog. . . this is for kassie who asked. . .ha ha.
Do you like what the neighbor across the street is doing with his grass??? awesome right??? I would go mow it but I have nowhere to put the grass until we get a yard waste container. . . oh the joys of living in a planned community with close neighbors.

Toy Story bluray/dvd combo's

ToysRus has toys story combo packs for $16.99 ea. when you buy both 1 and 2. . . but it is even better because they each have a $10 off coupon to make them 6.99 each. . . and if that isn't good enough the combo packs contain a free movie ticket worth $8.50. . . which in my book equals a sweeeeet screaming deal. I called ahead and had them hold me one of each at customer service!!

And if you live in Utah and love RodWorks as much as me, you will love that www.citydeals.com has a $25 gift certificate for $12.50.

I spy with my little eye. . .

Sorry, I couldn't help but do a "what is wrong with this picture?" post. I was driving the other day with the camera in the front seat with me at a stop light, and saw this. . . I was laughing so hard to myself. . . obviously not something you see everyday. The kids in the back wanted to know why I was laughing, and I couldn't bring myself to share it with them, but I will share it with you. I apologize if anyone finds this offensive or if you are friends with them. . .ha ha.

Fabulessly frugal really is fabulous!

My sister led me to a couponing blog www.fabulesslyfrugal.com and I it is right up my alley. I think it may be one of my new favorites. They are based out of Idaho, but the Northwest region is usually the same with grocery store chains.

Check out some of the deals they share this week starting 3/03 at albertsons:

Fruit snacks: .10 cents a box . . . .you heard me! and there is more. . .I am just too lazy to list them all. later

aaahhhhh the New Year!

Christmas break was soooo great. . . I really needed it. I feel renewed and ready for life again. I feel good even though it is grey and rainy. . . I am trying to get my house organized one small step at a time. It really does make me feel more in control of my life when things are in order. I read a good tip in a magazine about organizing one thing a day. . .such as a kitchen drawer or a closet, etc. By the end of the month that is 30 things and that is progress so that is what I am aiming for with baby steps.

I also joined a volleyball league for the first time in six years. . . I think it will be good for me. I really do love playing sports and it makes me happy. It should be fun, we start this week.
