ETHANS B-DAY

I WANT TO START OUT WITH I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY POSTING AND CANT GET MY WRITING TO BE BY THE PICS SO SORRY!

SO WE HAD A BUSY WEEK LAST WEEK..ETHAN TURNED THREE SO WE HAD A PARTY FOR HIM ON FRIDAY AND IT WAS A HOOT!MASON MY BRO-N-LAW HEARD I WAS GOING TO MAKE A SPONGEBOB CAKE FOR ETHAN...AND I GUESS HE HAD HEARD STORY'S ON HOW I AM THE LEAST TALENTED PERSON EVER, SO HE THOUGHT HE COULD WIPE THE FLOOR WITH ME AND HAVE A CAKE OFF..OH HOW HE WAS WRONG!!!YEAH I HAD A COUPLE BREAKDOWNS AND MAYBE A TEAR.I HAVE NEVER MADE LIKE A FANCY CAKE BEFORE AND I THOUGHT MAYBE BY A SLIM CHANCE OF LUCK ,AND A LOT OF ICING I COULD PULL THIS OFF. AND MY AUNTIE ERIN IS A CAKE MAKER SO I THOUGHT MAYBE WILL REALIZE MY NEW CALLING AND BE GREAT AT THIS...UMM WELL LETS SEE ..PROBLEM 1:I HAD TO STACK TWO CAKES ON EACH OTHER..BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PICK UP A CAKE AND PUT IT ON ANOTHER CAKE..ITS IN A PAN . AND I DON'T THINK I LET IT COOL ALL THE WAY CAUSE I CUT AROUND THE EDGES AND THEN HURRY AND TIP IT UPSIDE DOWN ON THE OTHER ONE...AND WELL IT RIPED IN HALF AND DOWN THE MIDDLE., SO I AM TRYING TO PIECE IT BACK TOGETHER WITH FROSTING AND IT JUST LOOKED LIKE A HOT MESS,SO NOW I AM THINKING OKAY THE TOP IS TOTALLY RUINED ,BUT THE FIRST CAKE DUMPED OUT FINE SO I WILL FLIP THE CAKES ..WELL I DID IT SUPER FAST AND HARD SO IT KINDA EXPLODED CAKE EVERYWHERE AND WHEN I LIFTED THE PAN IT RIPPED THE TOP LAYER OFF.. BUT IT STILL LOOKED A LITTLE BETTER..SO AFTER A CRUMB COAT(WHICH I LEARNED ON UTUBE)AND PUTTING IT IN THE FRIDGE IT LOOKED A LITTLE BETTER. PROBLEM 2;I WAITED FOR ALL THE KIDS TO FALL ASLEEP TO I COULD CONCENTRATE AND FOCUS ,WELL I FINALLY GOT THE LAST HEATHEN DOWN AND IT WAS 11:30 I WAS ALREADY TIRED BUT I THOUGHT, HEY I CAN DO THIS..I THINK.. SO AFTER A LOT OF SWEARING ..CURSING MY AUNTS NAME, FROSTING THE CAKE IN A HOT HOUSE SO MY FROSTING STARTED RUNNING AND IT BEING CROOKED I FINALLY FINISHED IT AT 2:30 IN THE MORNING ..OHH AND POOR MASON CAKE COLLAPSED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT..SO I AM THE VICTOR!!!.BUT LOVE YA MAS..IT WAS SUPER SWEET
..ANYWAYS...
ETHAN HAD A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY AND LOVED ALL THE FAMILY THAT CAME...THERE ARE SOME PICS OF US SETTING THE POOL UP , GRANDPA THORNLEY AND MEADOW AND LILY TOO!WE ALSO HAD A MEMORIAL DAY BBQ AT THE THORNLEYS AND THE KIDS HAD FUN AND WE HAD GOOD FOOD. AND SORRY THIS IS SUCH A LONG POST!!!

I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO PISSED AND HURT BY A STUPID T.V SHOW BEFORE. THE VIEW HAD GLENN BECK ON TODAY SO I WAS VERY EXCITED TO SEE HIM ON THERE. AND I WATCH THE VIEW, AND I KNOW MOST OF THEM DON'T AGREE WITH HIM BUT WHO CARES RIGHT. WELL I HAVE NEVER EVER SEEN THE GIRLS ON THE SHOW ATTACK SOMEONE SO MUCH AS THEY DID GLENN BECK. HE WAS ON FOR TWO SEGMENTS AND THE FIRST SEGMENT THEY TORE INTO HIM AND CALLED HIM A LYING PIECE OF DOG SHIT(WHOOPY) AND THE WHOLE SEGMENT WAS THEM DISCREDITING HIM FOR SAYING BARBRA CALLED HIM OVER INSTEAD OF HIM GOING UP TO BARBRA AND HE EVEN SAID SORRY I MISSPOKE ..WELL THEY JUST KEPT CALLING HIM A LIER AND THEN IT WAS TIME FOR THE SECOND SEGMENT WHERE BARBRA TRYED TO MAKE HIM LOOK STUPID BY SAYING HE CRYED ON HIS SHOW AND ..SO HE SAID WELL I DON'T WANT OT BE THE GUY THAT CRYS BECAUE HE IS PASSIONATE AND SAID QUIT TEASING ME ABOUT IT AND WAS BEING A GOOD SPORT ABOUT IT...AND BARBRA WENT INTO A BIG SPILL HOW SHE WASN'T AND SHE KEPT TRYING TO GET HIM TO BRING UP HE WAS MORMON..AND HERE IS WHERE I GOT SO PISSED..SO SHE WAS TRYING TO BRING HIS RELIGION IN AFTER THEY HAD CALLED HIM A LYING PIECE OF DOG SHIT AND A CRY BABY AND IT WAS LIKE SHE MADE IT SEEM LIKE IF I BRING UP THAT HE IS MORMON THEN THE WHOLE WORLD WILL THINK HE IS AN EVEN BIGGER IDIOT. THAT WAS THE FEEL I GOT FROM IT. HOW DARE THEY..IF ONLY SHE KNEW THAT HIM BEING MORMON AND THE PERSON HE HAS BECOME FROM HIS RELIGION IS WHY HE IS SO WELL RESPECTED AND VERY POPULAR TO HUGE AUDIENCES. I WATCHED THE VIEW EVERYDAY..BUT AFTER THIS I WILL NEVER WATCH THIS SHOW EVER AGAIN.

DAY AT THE PARK

WE WENT UP TO MY MOMS YESTERDAY AND WENT AND PLAYED AT THE PORTAGE PARK..AND I WAS SO EXCITED THAT THEY HAVE THREE OF THOSE BABY SWINGS THERE..AND SHE LOVED IT..SHE WOULD LOOK SO HAPPY AND SWEET IN IT ,TILL SHE STARTED TO SLOW DOWN THEN SHE WOULD YELL AT YOU. BUT EVERY TIME SHE SWINGS TOWARD YOU SHE OPENS HER MOUTH IN A BIG GRIN. SO CUTE..

BIRTHDAY GIFT IDEA

SO DO YOU KNOW HOW THERE IS ALWAYS THOSE INFOMERCIALS THAT LAST THE WHOLE COMMERCIAL TIME DURING YOUR SHOW. WELL ON SPONGE BOB THEY ALWAYS HAVE THE SAME ONES ..LIKE THE SNUGLY OR THE BUMP-IT FOR YOUR HAIR..THINGS LIKE THAT. WELL I GUESS KIDS REALLY DO SOAK THESE COMMERCIALS IN.

TONIGHT RUSTEN MADE ME A DEAL THAT IF HE WAS GOOD HE COULD STAY UP AND WATCH A SHOW ON MY BED. SO I AM FEEDING MEADOW AND RUSTEN COMES OUT WITH HIS "I HAVE AN IDEA FACE". AND HE WAS VERY EXCITED TO TELL ME THAT HE HAD THE PERFECT IDEA FOR ETHANS BIRTHDAY..

SOO ANYWAYS HE TOLD ME THAT THERE IS A PRAYER CROSS THAT IS SO SHINY THAT ETHAN WOULD JUST LOVE IT. AND I WAS LIKE WHAT PRAYER CROSS AND I REMEMBERED THE COMMERCIAL AND ITS A NECKLACE WITH A CROSS ON IT AND THE CROSS HAS DIAMONDS ON IT ..ITS VERY BLINGING.

SO I TOLD RUSTEN I AM NOT SURE ETHAN WOULD WANT A CROSS NECKLACE AND I THINK HE WOULD LIKE A TOY MORE.(I CANT REALLY EXPLAIN THAT WE DON'T WEAR CROSSES TO A FOUR YEAR OLD). BUT RUSTEN SAID FOR POSITIVE ETHAN WOULD LIKE IT BECAUSE ......HERE IT COMES......."BECAUSE IT IS SPECIAL ,BECAUSE IT SAID IT WAS A SPECIAL GIFT THAT GOES RIGHT BY YOUR HEART. AND THAT IT MAKES A GREAT GIFT...SEE I TOLD YOU MOM".

SO NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ,SO I SAID MY FAMOUS LINE....I WILL TALK TO DAD AND SEE WHAT HE THINKS..SO RUSTEN IS WAITING TO PITCH THE IDEA TO HIS DAD IN THE MORNING!
