Extreme Home Makeover






I am in this MOST AWESOME online group called extreme home makeover. It is like a class with a support group. We all chat, and get lessons and in 10 weeks your house is supposed to look bad!@* and streamlined, well I am in week nine, and let me tell you, it TOTALLY worked. I have all the laundry done, the house gutted of C R A P. And I am only a little worse for wear. I highly recommend it if you have some de-cluttering to do. I am now going to join the Make Today Matter group, with the same people. I drank the Brook Noel Kool-Aid, and it is delicious.

My gene pool made this




I think it is safe to say that Brock comes from my Gene pool, he is bright, funny, and knows how to really make people laugh. I told him to go get ready for school. He sometimes takes of his night time diaper & forgets to get some pull-ups & pants on (minor detail) but, mostly he does this on purpose because I laughed so hard the first time, now he will do this every now and then. But the kicker was his hat, and brushing his teeth. Then when he saw me with the camera, he did what came naturally. Completely unconcerned about being half bare a*! naked, he said, "take a picture of this" and promptly stuck his suction cup toothbrush to his head ( his father taught him that, which is a whole other boys will be boys thing) he was so delighted, he completely forgot about his first joke, being pantless joe. I was laughing so hard. Oh, my sweet, funny doodle.

Your Song....

Pete and I never really had a song, reading my friends blog, she and her husband had just finally found their song.
I laughed, because at our wedding we danced to "Let's stay together" by marvin gaye. I love that song, but in never really fit us. We were just being polite, I mean ultimately you can't slow dance to much by DMB, which is our favorite band.
Well, we finally found our song a few years ago. It is perfect for us. The words are all about us, it is different, the sweet guitar and awesome singing brings it home. What is your song???
Love..my life Santana Matthews
