We got Elfed!

Thanks for the cute idea Autumn!


We got elfed! Check it out. I seriously couldn't stop laughing. SO funny! Jeremy was quite proud of himself. I thought Kasen was the best though.

Who do you think was the best?

Traditional Campbell Family Thanksgiving

Every year it's the same routine at my mom and dads house. We all come over, the kids play together. They are actually playing nicely here, fun!

The boys all get together and yell and scream because the Detroit Lions are losing AGAIN. I can't remember the last time that team won on Thanksgiving, yet we watch the pathetic game EVERY year.

My mom in the kitchen cooking. This year I actually helped her! I am growing up! Aww! I made my mother in laws Frosted Cranberry Salad. It went over pretty well. It also made Jeremy feel like he was at home. Tender.

My dad pausing the Detroit game to carve the turkey. He really didn't need to pause it, he wouldn't have missed anything exciting. They lost!

P.S. we didn't eat that pink part of the turkey. Don't worry!

The AFTER turkey exhaustion. Dang that Tryptophan! Gave the kids a bumpy train track to play with!

The desserts! My mom apparently had intentions of inviting a whole army over for dessert. 7 pies for 6 adults! I felt sick by the time I went to bed!

I am so grateful for my family, and all the traditions that we have. I had a wonderful thanksgiving, but am ready to stop eating turkey sandwiches as leftovers!!! Til next year!

So You Think You Can Dance

Last night (Monday) my family went to go see So You Think You Can Dance! It was so dang cool!! Jeremy met us up there since he drove over straight from work, the rest of us drove up in my parents car. It was at the Sports Arena in San Diego.

We went to dinner beforehand that Black Angus. The wait was forever long because the restaurant is basically in the Sports Arena parking lot so people were going over there for dinner first, then going to the show. There were people EVERYWHERE! We came out from having dinner at about 7:45, the show started at 8:00, and the place was a ghost town! It was the pre-show rush! Really funny.

To my surprise, thanks to my brother having the job that he does, we had FRONT ROW tickets! (Sorry Jenny if this post will make you sad). We saw the dancers up close and personal. It was so cool. I had so much fun! SO much fun! If I like the dancers as much next year, I will go again! Jeremy wasn't too enthused about being there, but he was a good husband and went because he knew I was excited about it. Thanks, Jeremy!


I had to try and lighten the picture since I am no longer allowed to use the flash when Jeremy is in the picture.

Seriously!?

Yes, that right...you see that green pie on my floor? Well Kasen thought that he wanted some, so he opened the fridge, I wasn't paying attention like I should have been...I was watching Americas Next Top Model. Grr...He tried to carry it over to me and surprise surprise...dropped it! All I can hear is him saying...

"Its all over my blankie! It's all over my blankie!"
Im still not looking and I asked him "what's on your blankie?"
"The PIE!"

Well that certainly got my attention and I looked over the edge of the couch and saw the pie face down on his blanket! All I could do was laugh! I tried SO hard not to because I wanted him to know he was in trouble for getting it out of the fridge, but I just laughed. I think I would have been a little more upset if it had gone face down on the floor. I just picked his blankie up and scraped the pie off into the trash can and threw the blankie into the wash.

My Gratitude List

I have been challenged by my sister in law to write 10 out of the normal things that I am grateful for. I am going to write 10 things I would never say I am normally thankful for.

1. Air conditioned cars-boy is it a bummer not having a/c in your car.
2. Waterproof matress pads- sometimes Kasen will still leak out of his pull up at night, I am so grateful it doesnt get all the way to the mattress.
3. Leapfrog Letter Factory- this movie is the reason Kasen learned his letters and the sounds they make. Best $10 spent!
4. Glasses- I would be blind and naseous all the time if it weren't for my new glasses.
5. Lactose Intolerance Meds- If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be able to eat some of my favorite foods.
6. Cameras- I know that even through words I would never be able to capture some of the things I do with my camera
7. Happy Meals- without those chicken nuggets, french fries, "blue soda" and ranch, Kasen would die of starvation
8. Tivo- I dont have time to watch all the shows that I do at the specified times they are on.
9. Chapstick- I couldnt go anywhere or do anything if I didn't have my chapstick!
10. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse- gives me a 20 min break to do something for ME

tagged....7 weird things about me

So I decided that I would enlist in some help on this blog. I know that the things other people think are weird, would most likely be normal to me. So Jeremy wrote this.


1. I sleep with my legs crossed. I lay on my back, one leg with foot on bed, knee up, and the other leg crossed over, like a guy sits when they are sitting, not sleeping.

2. Having too many windows open on the computer stresses me out. If people leave with windows open, I always have to go find them and ask if I can close their windows before I can do anything.

3. Ever since I was little, my mom has fed me pickles, smothered in cream cheese, wrapped in ham. I can't stress enough how dang tasty these things are. I ate A LOT of them when I was pregnant with Kasen. Don't knock it, til you've tried it!

4. I can't ever just sit with my feet flat on the floor. I either have to be sitting on one leg/foot or have my legs crossed. But I CANNOT have BOTH feet flat on the floor. That's like breaking some sort of leg rule or something.

5. I don't like to be downstairs by myself after everyone has gone to bed. It freaks me out. If Jeremy is going to bed, and I am not tired, I will still go to bed with him because I don't want to be downstairs alone.

6. When I was pregnant with Kasen, I was standing in my bathroom after getting out of the shower and caught a man staring at me through my bathroom window (I lived in apartments). Ever since then I always feel like people are staring at me through the windows. (#5 and #6 might have something to do with each other)

7. I have massive age issues. I annoys me to no other when people tell me "you're young", or "you're still a baby", or when they say "try being my age" This issue might have something to do with being the youngest of 10 kids. I bet you half my brothers and sisters don't realize I am 27, and still think I am 12. GRR!! Just writing about it gets me all riled up.

That's it. 7 weird things about me.

I TAG:

1. Nichole
2. Autumn
3. Crystal
4. Sarah

Like Father, Like Son...

Enough said.
