A weird/embarrassing experience

When I woke up this morning I just didn't feel right. I didn't feel sick, things just seemed off somehow. I got ready for the day and headed into work to take care of a couple things (today is supposed to be my day off). As the morning went on I could tell I was getting sick. I hurried through my tasks and went on my way. I needed to stop at walmart to pick up a few things on my way home.

I grabbed a cart and slowly wandered my way through the store. I picked up a new toothbrush, a paintbrush, and various other items. As I shopped I starting feeling even worse, it was almost as if I had drank a whole bottle of Nyquil, I felt so drowsy. I had made my way about 3/4 of the way around the store and was headed to my last stop. My plan was to make dinner tonight and the only item I knew I didn't have at home was some sage.

As I made my way over to the spices I looked down and realized I was driving someone Else's cart! It was so bizarre! There in front of me was a cart full of another persons groceries and a purse! I immediately looked around but didn't see my cart anywhere. How did this happen? I was so confused! As I looked around I thought surly I would see the owner of this strange shopping cart nearby. No such luck. I wandered back through the store trying my hardest to remember where the switch might have happened. I eventually ended up in the movie section where to my relief I found my cart! I asked a couple of women nearby if the cart belonged to them, but it wasn't theirs. I didn't see any other shoppers around so I parked the cart where I had originally left mine and made my way back to the spices.

At that point I knew I needed to get home and go to bed!

All In One

I know the Superbowl was last week, but we took this picture to put on the blog, so here it is! It was fun making the cake, and the football in the middle is brownie. It was an awesome game!
I was going for the Cardinals, but all in all, it was still a fun game to watch. We watched it at Eric's parents. Before the game we played a game called Buzz on the PS3, it's a trivia game, that is very entertaining!




The next picture is of course Vinnie. He was in one of his happy go lucky moods. Just happy and content. We were trying to get a good picture of him and Eric so you could see how tall he really is, but we weren't able to, but I still love this pic of him and Eric!






And finally this weekend we are tending 'Ghost' until Monday. Her parents had to find her a new home because someone turned them in for having too many dogs. The base is very strict about only being able to have 2. They had 24 hours to decide which of their 3 dogs would have go. She will be going back to the rescue they adopted her from, and I think she'll get adopted fast because she's an absolute sweetheart! I can't imagine making that decision! Anyways, tomorrow we're going to see the new Clint Eastwood movie, we'll let you know how it is! In the meantime we hope all is well!

It's been awhile

I figured we should put up a post since it has been awhile! We have both been very busy lately. Eric has been filling in a lot more at work and will be working as manager for the next month. He's eagerly awaiting the next trip he'll be able to take! I have been working a lot as well. There is not much new to report here. We just hang out with our kids, and are still watching movies like crazy. Hopefully we'll have something soon for a new post!! =o)

Happy to be inside

We got quite a bit of snow today and it was FREEZING COLD outside when I got home from work. I could tell by the scratching at the back door the kids wanted to come in really bad. Vinnie was definitly happy to be inside. (Make sure your sound is turned on) -Eric

Time with Mom and Dad








We had a great time while Mom and Dad were here. Our family spent a lot of time together playing anything from Rock Band, to Twister, or Phase 10. We also got some down time, and were able to eat, relax, and nap (as Dad shows that he can always sleep anywhere!) We had our family pictures taken on Monday and are anxiously awaiting to see them. Mom and Dad leave tomorrow, the time has gone way too fast! Of course, the weather will be fine when it comes time for them to leave! We are very happy that we were able to see them as always! As for New Years, we don't really have any plans except to relax and ring in the new year with our kids. Happy New Years!

Christmas


Christmas came and went way too fast this year! We spent Christmas day at Eric's parents house. We had a really fun day. We received a bunch of great gifts, ate way too much food, and played lots of rock band. Layne even joined in and played guitar for a song!
My parents were supposed to fly in around 7:30pm Christmas night but their flight was diverted (because of the snowstorm) to Denver about 10 minutes before it was supposed to land. It was so frustrating to drive clear down to the airport in that blizzard just to have to come back home without them! Luckily they were able to catch a flight early the next morning.
