This is hilarious!! Happy Thursday!

Reality television

We all know by now that reality television is my version of crack (well, that and Dr Pepper), but I have to admit some of this stuff I've been watching lately is just plain Crazy with a capital C. First, let's talk about the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Danielle. Danielle's thugs in waiting to "protect" her from the Manzos. And the craziest of all, Kim "G" dancing on that pole. Ewww. Second, this crazy train that I am watching right this very moment, Toddlers and Tiaras. For one, I will never be a mom that is ok with the fake tanning, flippers (fake teeth!) or fake lashes on toddlers. Then the behavior of all these folks involved. Unfortunately, I am not talking about the children. Will these shows be the classics on TV Land when our children are adults?

Life Lesson

I have learned a little life lesson over the past year or so that I have been reminded in the past fews days of it's truth: When you don't engage, people become enraged. This is referring to all those folks out there that love to live with the drama in their life. When you refuse to engage in their behavior they truly become enraged. As life marches on I keep reminding myself that these are people you cannot reason with so (no matter how tempting it may be) just to not engage them and they will move on.

Am I still a blogger?

I have to admit I just haven't been feeling bloggy lately. Life seems to be going at a frantic pace and some days I feel like I am just trying to keep my head above water.

Perfect day

What are the elements to a perfect day?

1. Sitting in church with your oldest child's head resting on your arm. Or better yet, listening to her sweet little voice singing the hymns with you.

2. Brunch. Need I say more?

3. The lovely ladies and I going for a ride in the car and singing our hearts out to some Taylor Swift. Birdie even does her little hand motions with the songs to give them that little extra something! After "Fifteen" goes off she tells me, "I am Taylor Swift!!".

4. Sitting on my front porch rocking my sleeping Macho Man and watching my lovely ladies and Hubby play in the yard.

5. Taking in some country music eye candy while watching the ACM awards while eating one single, small scoop of strawberry ice cream.

Perfect.

My family

Me and all my lovelies Easter evening. I look tired, but don't care as this is the first picture of all 5 of us in months!!
