Really?

I'm pretty sure he forgot his pants! Not sure what he was trying to accomplish with this "fashion" statement, but it wasn't good on any level!!! Oh, the things you see at the beach!

I'm almost 30 and lets just say, I'm very blessed with my "assets"! I've always had 'em, don't mind them, most of the time, and wear flattering things that depending on the occassion, flaunt them in the most respectable way!!! I have changed my fashion over the past few years now that I'm a married woman and a mother and it is NOT acceptable to be showing your stuff too much! I don't think that some of the people we saw on the beach got this memo. You know the ones I'm referring to - besides the grandpa in the above photo ! Now, I know I don't have the same body I did in my college days and even if I did, I'm not sure that I would run around in a string bikini - I wouldn't go so far as to say, that at my age, even being a mother, if I could, I wouldn't wear a modest two piece, but nothing that has barely there nipple covers and has shoestring straps!

I was embarrassed for these women that I saw and I didn't even know them.....grandmothers wearing the tiniest bikini you ever saw!!! High cut legs, or really low rise string bottoms leaving absolutely NOTHING to the imagination with either strapless - yes, I said strap LESS tops or itty bitty triangle tops - I'm sorry but after a certain age, you need SOME support! The one that I knew was a grandmother (because her daughter and grandson were there with her) was also wearing daisy duke denim shorts with a way too small tank top showing off her tummy! I found out later that she was a stripper - yes, the grandma - So I guess she thinks she looks good!

I hope I survive

In less than 2 hours, Little Hauss and I'll be on our way to the beach! We have to make a stop on the way to pick up my mother in law from work but from there we'll only have about 4 1/2 hours or less until we are breathing in the salty air!

I will NOT be taking the laptop with us. This is going to be a REAL vacation! Family, Fun, Sun, Sand, Water and NO internet - I hope I can survive a week laptop free! I am so excited though, I can't stand it! I'm a little sad that Hubby can't join us and will be stuck here working and such while we are soaking up some rays! Don't feel sorry for him yet....he enjoys the quiet time and he's even got a day trip planned on Saturday to the hills of Charleston, WV. Hopefully he wins big in his card games!

A few other things before I forget -

First of all, I passed my test!!!!!! I got the letter in the mail yesterday!!!!! Now, onto the next and final test - probably in June!

Second - We finished our audit at work yesterday and passed with flying colors! The actual audit process wasn't difficult because we were so prepared, but it was mentally exhausting. I worked over 35 hours in 3 days! My brain was mashed potatoes and I went to bed before 9 last night!

Third - I chopped my hair again!!! I love my new do! Check out the new profile pic and you can see!

Happy Easter to everyone...I'll fill you in on all the beach events when we return!

Eggcellent Fun

Last weekend we went to our Church Spring Festival and had a wonderful time hunting easter eggs, juming in the bounce house, and playing with friends!

Little Hauss was very excited about his easter egg hunt! This year they divided the parking lot and grounds into sections based on age, so every child had a fair chance of getting plenty of eggs! Well, we were a little late, so we missed these instructions and Little Hauss was too cute when he started picking up an egg in the wrong section - I told him that wasn't his section, and he sweetly placed the egg back where he found it! Wouldn't want to get caught snatching an egg that wasn't in your designated section - especially at church!

Here are some visuals of our beautiful day!

Finally - a family photo
Fun in the bounce house

Cool orange and yellow easter egg!

Found one!

I think he has a mouthful of candy!!!!

Locked Out

This is what happens when you grow up and try to become repsonsible. You get married, buy cars, and have babies. All of these events come with documentation. All this documentation needs to be kept in a safe place - like a safe deposit box. Simple enough. Fairly inexpensive for the reassurance that all of your personal information is kept locked up tight!

That is until you LOSE your keys to get you in that safe place!!!!!!! Aaaaaggggghhhhhhhh!!!!!! Hubby says don't freak out. Apparently he forgot who he married almost 7 years ago!! I'm beyond freaked. Now, I wouldn't be as freaked out if I didn't NEED to get into said safe deposit box! That wonderful cruise we booked requires passports to board which requires certified copies of birth certificiates which are in box with no key!

This will consume me. Well, it will consume Hubby who will use his alone time this weekend to look for lost keys! I will be drinking lots of alcoholic beverages on the beach while Little Hauss is playing golf or fishing or whatever he does with his Papa! I am so ready for this vacation!

Blast from the Past

I love movies. I have tons that I can watch over and over. I have a good friend who is the same way. She had a great collection that was lost a few years ago in a move and has been slowly replacing them. Mostly she uses Netflix but sometimes you just need to have your own. Since I will be working non stop on this Audit next week and then heading to the beach, I will miss her birthday on April 13. Normally we don't do gifts with our group (we are too busy having cocktails), but I couldn't resist this one! One of her favorite movies is one of mine as well, so I couldn't pass it up when I found it on Amazon - one of the best websites ever!

You know you've seen it, loved it and danced along with it - I don't see how you couldn't!

Personal Ad

Married mother of one seeking bright yellow ball of fire that sits high in baby blue sky surrounded by few clouds and a slight breeze. I love long walks on the beach, picnics, watching Little Hauss play at the park and wearing flip flops. If interested, please respond asap! Long rainy days are making life barely functional.

Goo Goo Gah Gah

Oh, babies are in the air and I love it!

THREE sets of twins - yes, you read that right!!! I have a friend who has a little boy and girl turning ONE today, another friend recently had a set of girls, and someone else I know had a boy and girl about a week ago! On top of that, I have SIX friends having babies between now and September!!! This is so exciting! I'm hosting 2 more showers and just attending the rest! This is really making my fever spike! I just have a few more months and then we will hopefully start trying (HUBBY: DID YOU GET THAT?????)

I'm in party planning mode already. Even though the shower I helped with last weekend was easy peasy at the Country Club, these next two will be more low key at the house, but I love it! Its so fun doing invitations and deciding on the food, decorations, etc. I love to come up with menus and drinks for the event as well as games or activities! But best of all is the shopping!!! I just melt when looking at itty bitty clothes and toys!

So much fun is coming our way - Cant' wait!
