Hedgehogs with BIG GUNS!

Cameron and Cooper had a sleepover last night. Pretty sure Cameron wanted to be like Coop with the glasses. So dang cute!

Phoenix 2010

Annual girls' trip to Phoenix highlights:

1. Paige elbowed me in the face while getting off the plane.
2. Jenica got a 'heat rash'.
3. I ate an entire jar of pickles at the pool.
4. Jenica made some amazing German pancakes.
5. 44 ounces of Coke several times a day probably has all the essential vitamins covered.
6. We saw Valentine's Day and Bounty Hunter and ate our own body weight in popcorn.
7. Jenica and I stayed up till 2:00 am watching Overboard and quoting it word for word.
8. We are pretty much horrible at Beatles Rock Band.
9. We were given the stink eye by a guy who runs a snooty boutique and told we didn't know how to dress ourselves. (This coming from a guy who highlights his hair, tans in a tanning bed and wears True Religion.)
10. Jenica made us homemade salsa and ranch dip.
11. We often found ourselves absorbed in our iphones playing endless rounds of Words With Friends.
12. We went to the Easter Pageant at the Mesa temple.
13. Paige and I broke a bed.
14. Paige and I fixed a bed.
15. Paige and I broke a bed again and again and again.
16. Jenica let us raid her makeup and closet.
17. We laid out at the pool for hours every day.

Jenica is pretty much the best hostess ever! I miss her like crazy but it's so much fun to go visit every spring. She always takes good care of me. She let's me play whatever crappy music I want in the car and sleep on her bed with her. She lends me clothes, does my makeup and makes me breakfast. There are not words to describe what a great friend she is!!

I need to give a shout out to Paige too. Paige is one of the easiest people in the world to be around. We always find ourselves laughing to tears. She is the kind of friend that you can either talk for hours or have silence while we read our Us Weekly.

Paige, Jenica and I have been friends for more than 22 years. Our history overlaps so much that we are sisters. I feel so blessed to have them in my life! So excited for March 2011 in Phoenix!

excuse me

Last night I was helping the boys do homework when I smelled something very suspicious.
Me: "Why does it smell like poop over here?"
Adam: "I just tooted. I even said 'excuse me' and it's not working. It still stinks."
