ok, so I lied...

Ashlyn after a hard day of gardening! Woo hoo! early bed time!! Ok, So, I'm not really sure why all my pics got out of wack so bear with me... We had a crazy weekend and week. I decieded that it was too pretty to be inside painting so I had to be out doing my landscaping. It was great! We had soooo much fun (ashlyn & jak were BIG helpers) We went and bought flowers, mulch, ice cream, new planters...all that good stuff to make the outside look better. I am so glad that my kids are independent. They helped me so much, Ashlyn even spread grass seed!! That makes me not have baby fever! I love the fact that if Jak wants popcorn...he makes it himself, if ashlyn wants a snack, she does the same. I am so thankful for my beautiful children! It's funny because I have those days where I want to pull my hair out but when they are gone, jonathan and I miss them so much it's not even funny!! Enjoy the pics, Like I said, sorry they are out of wack....
Just goes to show that no matter how many toys you buy...the want the box!
Ashlyn and Jak started getting their first allowance, A clean room fit for a princess!!

I love Spring! This is sissy helping her new best friend Sara (our neighbor) plant all her flowers. She even got to hang out with sara while mommy, daddy and jak went to the store! She felt so big!
This is sissys cinderella dress, she likes to wear it around the house
I LOVE IT!!!! he actually LOVES to do dishes too!!! Bribes work.....he loves it too
Even princesses have to do chores...in thier dresses
After a hard day of gardening, vaccuming, sweeping and playing theres nothing like Vanilla Wafers and a spongebob sipper to knock you right out!!

Yeah, so the plaster in the back shows that I didn't paint....but Ashlyns new dresses from Burlington make her feel like a million bucks!! Burlington is baaaadddd.....so inexpensive, so cute...beware!! Just ask my mom, we bought one of every dress in 6X I think...
Ashlyn and pappaw for Church. He loves is little lady!!
oK, Back to the garden pics...This is the flower pot that sissy fixed up. Her new garden gloves and hat were a must for her manicure and pretty fair skin! (can we say Princess)
He just wanted to dig...not plant...typical boy for ya I guess! He's my little man, Uv Him!

Sara and sissy planting flowers. They had so much fun!! Ashlyn just loves Sara, after church Sun. she ran over there just to show off her pretty dress. Bubby followed suite but wouldn't let me get a pic cause he was ready to change clothes and get dirty!!

Well, that has been our past few days, I did get my laundry room done...almost...I ran out of paint so a few more spots to finish up and all thats left is the living room, foyer and hall!! Fran Evola with Real Estate Unlimited (my realtor) will be sooooooo happy, since we are wayyyyy past due to have it on the market!!

Ok, so, big plans this weekend...Morrrrre Painting! Trying to get everything done in two days, I am going to try to have it on the market for Monday so be looking for new pics of my hiz-ouse and tell your friends to buy it. I can't let mom and dad beat me! Watch out momma...here I come...yeah right, gimme another month...then it'll be done!! haha I think my realtor will kill me if I don't get it done soon. I have to face her at my weekly BNI meetings and tell her "almost". She is so patient! That's Fran Evola with Real Estate Unlimited, she will be so proud if I finally meet my goal....that was supposed to be met 4 months ago...yeah, I'm a slacker! Hopefully it will sell quick. It's actually got some great features...such as: Big fenced in back yard with a field behind it, HUGE walk in closet in MB, big bedrooms, vaulted ceilings, 2 car garage, lots of storage, big laundry room...It screams "buy me"

welp, I'm done with my name dropping and advertising.....after reviewing, i realize that....Gotta give it up for my peeps!


Seriously, tell them , I'll give more info at a later date.

Well, it is quiet

So, Tuesday nights are always a rush becuase my in-laws always help us by watching the kids so that I can get up at 5am and be at my weekly meetings at 7am. We get home, Jonathan usually has dinner made and ready to eat, we get baths, pack up bags, and head back out the door. Well, things went as usual tonight except we had "Let's play with mommy's camera" night....so, here are some of the pictures that the kids took. (Some are from yesterday when I was blogging and they were running around taking pics)My lil photographers! Ashlyn and her little kitten Baby Cleo


Don't we look sweet!

Mommy's Baby-Daddy's Big Boy (uncle Butch & Papaw's too)

Ashlyn made me do it...

Ok, so back to the previous blog. There will be a chili supper for Rick Hogue Saturday the 24th from 5pm to 7pm then gospel singing from 7-??? Main Cross Baptist Church in Charlestown. This family is very know in the community and they could use all the prayers and support that we can give them.

Last but not least, the Blonde moments jar-

Ok, so, if you color your hair and it's REALLY Blonde.....don't try to color it brown because it turns green. Then, in return, you must become a red-head. (Not saying that is a bad thing by any means...I just don't do good as red) Keep that in mind when buying box color...I've about sworn off coloring my hair completly due to that fact...but I can't resist change!!

Think I'll get on to bed...at least maybe I'll get some sleep instead of hearing "mommy..I'm hungry" in the middle of the night. I'm still convinced that they just like to wake me up!!

My Oh My, Look how time flies!

Ok, so Sunday started off to be awesome....then went nuts! It started at church on Sunday, Brian didn't preach because he took a well earned break so Rich did the sermon. It was awesome. Some of the ways that he preached reminded me of Uncle Sonny being on the pulpit. I think it was all the jokes! He had me captivated. Not to mention the people that were there...we were packed!! I love going to church and seeing so many of my friends.

After church I took Jonathan home so that he could change clothes and head to the farm while the kiddos and I went to eat at Jerry's with mom. I was so excited...I got a 1/2 day all to myself!! SHEW! I ended up going to Henryville to meet up with some friends from high school. Jennifer Hogue (I can't remember her married name..sorry), Jennifer Shepherd & Erin Lush. We went to see Hogues dad because he has cancer and he's been asking about all of his "girls". It was so good to see Rick but when I got home it really started to hit me how hard it must be for Jen and her mom (not to mention her 2 kids) to have to go through him being sick. It also made me think of my grandpa, his cancer, my mom and my kids. Please remember Rick and My g-pa in your prayers. They really need it! It absolutly amazes me what this disease does to people. Breaks my heart. Here are some pics....Sorry Jenn....

I'll have to finish the rest later...kiddos are wanting food and attention...

It has begun..

I've Done It!! I actually got my kitchen painted this afternoon! I didn't think it was ever going to happen. I do have to admit that my Uncle Butch gave me alot of help. We had a good time and it really didn't take long at all. Tomorrow: Laundry Room! Hopefully after I get that done I can get the Living Room/Hall and we can put a For Sale Sign in the front yard!! Woo Hoo! I hope it sells quick, I am ready to move to the "farm" (its not really, buts it as farmy as 'm gonn get). Jonathan and the kiddos were out there all day playing in the creek. They love to be outside! I think Jonathan enjoys it more than anyone. Uncle B.J. usually goes out with them to so they enjoy spending time with him too. He is a great uncle! Alexander told him that he was Batman and Bj was Robin! I think I should moniter their missions thoroughly.

The Kitchen has always been red but we went a tad bit darker and did a satin finish (it was flat last time, long story)

This is Ashlyn and Alexander at the property

I decided earlier that I need to bring up the "Blonde Moments"Jar....Jessica and Mom will love these! Yes, updates of just how blonde I really am and the stupid things I do...and admit to it!!

So, I've been driving Jonathan's car for a few days, its fun, 5-speed so a little tricky in heels (Blonde moment in itself) but after getting back in my explorer I didn't think that it would be complicated....lets just say that on my way to see a customer I reached down to shift gears maybe 5 times, slammed on my breaks 3 times while driving down 62,(Thank goodness no one was close behind me) with my left foot thinking it was a clutch, pulled to the wrong side to get gas...i can't help it!

Ok, so I go to take pics of a building for a project at work....I get in the car to take a look at them and all of them had blonde streaks going through them....It took me probably 10 mins to get 4 pictures, I'm going to invest in scrunchies!!

yeah, so, I don't like wild animals, round my house we shoot skunks and opossoms....I'm standing in moms kitchen when my cat Trouble comes to the door and starts scratching. The door is glass and he's going to town, so nautrally in my mommy voice I ask him whats wrong...A RACOON! Munching on poor Trub's food....I freak out...mom grabs a broom and starts to yell "shoo", (Iasked her where the gun was and she said the broom would work ok) so she saves the day as I am able to escape safely to my vehicle. stupid...I had a scary experience with a coon one year when I went on a trip with Carla Rhodes. I'll never be the same! J/k

Those are just a few that I can think of, I've worked hard today and I think my brain is shutting down... More to follow!

Goodnight, Me wuv ou, from Alexander, who just walked in the room!!

DUH!!!

Ok, a part of me is afraid to admit it....but i am so blonde. I couldn't remember my name and password to get back on my blog and I still don't know how I did it but...here I am!!

The next thing I have to figure out is how to get pictures loaded...so out of date!!

Well, not lots to talk about really. I have baby fever with everyone coming up either pregnant or giving birth. I got to see Baby Blair Kaelin yesterday. Sue came by to order her announcments and her kids are just precious. She was defitnally made to be super mom! Mom keeps telling me that "This to shall pass"(back to the babyfever) I guess that I do fp inally have to admit.....I'm over it!!! Last night made my mind up. Jonathan called and said that Ashlyn's kitten Baby Cleo was MIA and I needed to come home so that he could go search for her. After he goes out in the pouring down rain to look for her...Ashlyn goes to her room, opens up her pajama drawer to get ready for bed and there sits Baby Cleo. Just sleepin in her drawer. I just shook my head. I didn't know what else to do so we just laughed. Krazy Kanes.

Ashlyn is so much like her mother...watch out....we went shopping the other day and she loves to pick out her own outfits. We ended up going to the new Burlington Coat Factory and boy that was a mistake.....FRILLY DRESSES! I called all my friends (yeah that would be MOM and Jessica) to tell them they have got to check this place out. Ashlyn is just little Ms. Princess. Wanted matching shoes and all. Pics will come.

Alexander on the other hand is just the opposite. He hates to shop and wants to wear costumes all day every day. We did however make him smile when he got new skateboard jammies and a new Spidey outfit. It is so funny that he never wants to wear real clothes. Just costumes. Boys, Boys, Boys......He is something else. The thing I love about him is he is such a mommy's boy! Constantly hanging all over me, wanting me to hold him, giving me kisses...my lil JAK JAK!

Jonathan is on his outdoor kick. Since mom and dad bought the property that is where you will find him and the kiddos. I was at work on Tuesday and got a pic on my phone and all 3 were knee deep in the creek. Talk about funny! Both of my kids love that kind of stuff!! They don't get that from me! Jonathan is so good with doing things like that with the kiddos. Memories they will never forget. I just can't wait to move out there so we don't have to go back and forth. It would probably get rid of the mud in my vehicle problem I am having. Oh well.

Well, hope you enjoyed my blog today. I wonder how many people read this?

Finally up with the reality

Woo Hoo! I finally got it!
Well, today I decided that I would get up with reality and make a blog or a my space page. I thought it would be fun to share what goes on in this crazy world of ours. Between Ashlyn running around singing and playing dress up to Superman saving the day. You never know what will happen around here. I am not sure if the kiddos are too fond of my new idea. They have been running crazy while I try to get into the world wide web....maybe I should go check on them....
Ok, back to blogging...you can all thank my Director, Beth Spencer for this. Everytime I get on her blog and JAK sees pictures of Bella, he asks where his are.....My reply is, sorry Jak, mommy doesn't know how to do that.....or, the pics are still in the camera! NOT ANYMORE! Watch out ya'll, you never know what's gonna happen at the House of Kane.
You'll have to check back to see......
Lots of Love!!
