What Is On Michelle’s Phone Tuesday

I have been MIA the last 2 or 3 weeks of this awesome link party thrown by Jessica over at The Lowe Family News and I am mad, very mad at myself. 

To make up for lost time I will unload it all on you guys today and I promise to narrow it down to the bestest of the best! 

I missed the 2nd week of this party because I was still recovering from a trip to Tuscaloosa, Alabama with my friend Brenda.  We went to watch Alabama football!!  We had a great time, our boys won the game and we had an even better time afterwards partying it up like we were college students! 

Many thanks to my great husband for staying with the kiddos while I played. 

 

I’ve been busy with the kids.  I got to enjoy Thanksgiving lunch with Dominick at school and went on a field trip with Marissa and Bailey.

Alex brought a bouquet of flowers home for no reason at all....I love him!

Getting four kids dressed and ready {by myself} to see Santa ended up being a major ordeal.  After loading everyone in the truck and locking the house, I realized my keys were sitting on my kitchen table. 

Luckily a window was unlocked so I had to tear up a window screen {which due to it's great quality took me 15 minutes to tear the screen so I could rip it out of the window} in order to get in my house and get my keys. 

Lastly, we had a weak moment and bought a new puppy!  We have one wiener dog and thought it would be a great idea to get another {what were we thinking?}.  She is so cute and yummy!

What Is On Michelle’s Phone Tuesday

I’m a genius...ok not really but this hot mamma Jessica is a genius! 

Recently she started posting blogs to chronicle her phone picture taking addiction.  This is right up my alley since I usually have my phone camera, my regular digital camera, my DSLR and my Flip video camera within a fingers distance away at all times. 

I told her I wanted to copy her posts but I did not like to be a copy cat so I suggested she have a link party to celebrate her brilliant idea and low and behold she having a link party so we can all share our life events via our phone pictures!  Be sure to join the party here, you are guaranteed to meet some great people. 

Let’s get on with the brilliance:

I am beginning to understand why my children hate taking pictures with me.  While traveling to a haunted train/house I tried to take a picture of me and some of the kids.  After 4 attempts of me trying to not look like I have a double chin I finally gave up and realized my arm was not long enough to get all of us in the picture without me looking like a goon. 

In the fall/winter I usually darken my hair.  Please focus on my hair and how my eyes pop instead of me not having any makeup on....thanks. 

My suburban is even more fabulous with the addition of sun visors that aren’t really sun visors but 10” TV screens.

We threw our annual Halloween party and had a bonfire which could have burned down our garage and an oak tree...luckily no such things happened and we had a great evening.

Two days ago I celebrated my 1st wedding anniversary and we pulled the cake top out of the freezer.  It was actually still very moist and tasty. 

Christmas is nearing and the kids are starting to get in the spirit.  I am starting to see lists like this laying all around my house.  My favorite is #5 (“suitable” lip-gloss  - since we don’t allow our girls to wear makeup) and #8 (the “can’t be boring” part). 

That’s all for now, well there is a lot more, but this is a good summary.  I will be on the prowl looking for pictures for next week’s party!
