Today's post

I don't really have much to say today. . Um. yeah. So, I'm really tired. But anyways.
I just finished reading 3:16 by Max Lucado. I gotta say, it was pretty amazing. He went through the verse John 3:16 word by word. Now, normally this verse is pretty amazing right? You can read it in such an amazing way through this book. It was soo good. I especially liked the way he painted pictures with words. . like, I don't know how to explain it, but it was good. Very good. I definitely suggest you read it.
Yeah, sorry for the short blog post I just can't seem to think. Haha anyways. .
Yepp, I'll talk to you guys later!

Just kidding! I'm not done posting for today!!

Me- My legs are smooth like a baby's behind!
Mom- My legs are hairy like a new baby monkey's behind!

Yes, I do live with the crazies.

Fun product name of the day - Anti monkey butt powder

I refuse to explain that one.
Okay, now I'm gone.

Later gater,

Wow. It has been so busy.  I've been babysitting a lot. I love my kiddos :) It doesn't get much better than one kid starting up a hymn and everyone joining in and finishing together. The children we watch are just too precious :) Haha.

I had a glucose tolerance test done this week. This is the oh so fun test where you fast for 8 hours and then they stab you with a needle and suck the life out of you and you almost throw up and pass out and bite a whole in your thumb all at the same time and then they give you 5 minute to drink 8oz a super sugary drink that tastes like the juice at the bottom of those cherry popsicles that come in the bag and after that you get a sugar high like you wouldn't believe (If you are like me you also see stars and get a headache) THEN you sit and wait bouncing in your chair for two hours until the lady calls you back in to suck the life out of you again and then you almost pass out and throw up and bite a hole in your thumb AGAIN, but this time there's a boy and his mom watching you. Then, the nurse puts a bandage on your arms so tight that it cuts your circulation off and your forearm turns purple. (I took this as a sign that the work out I did two weeks ago before I smashed my foot in a door *COUGH* I mean I got attacked by wolves. . really did work and my muscles were just busting out of that bandage.) Yep, so that's what a glucose tolerance test consists of. Oh! And then they eventually call back with your results telling you everything is perfect and it was all for nothing. Grand right?  I thought so.

So, I've been hinting at my boyfriend to take me to Mama Mia's Pizzaria for a couple months now and he finally decided that he should take me there. So, he went to take me there and it was GONE. I know. Tragic right?? So, instead we go to Skimo's. That will not ever happen again. Their pizza was like a slab of grease with 5 pepperonis. Our new mission: Locate Mama Mia's ASAP. They moved to Collierville!! Noooooooo! So, Curtis tried to suprise me by taking me there. The suprise aspect failed, but that doesn't suprise me. :) So, props to Mama Mia's. This is the girl who is not fond of pizza saying she LOVES your pizza. With a floppy purple passion. I encourage you to go there. You will not be disappointed.

I recently discovered what a comfort it is to know you have a God who loves and protects you and how wonderful it is to know that you have a brother or sister in Christ praying for you. Not that I didn't know already, but it's really been on my mind. So, If you have any prayer request, any at all, please let me know. Even an unspoken. No prayer request is too small. So, yeah. I just wanted to offer to pray for my readers (If there are any. . lol O.o)

Well, all I had was a piece of cheese for breakfast so it's getting to be my lunch time.

I bid you farewell,
Viv

Princess tea parties aren't me. .

So, this past Sunday we had a birthday party for my little sister who turned ten. What little girl DOESN'T want a princess tea party?! So, we princess tea partied. This is the princess Miranda "from Mirandaland where everything goes slowwwwwwww."

The pretty princesses acting like princesses.

 The royal spread with Prince Wannabe's hand in it. (My brother.)

The cake that I was pretty sure I would shoot before I actually finished it. Icing and I do NOT get along. Things kept exploding in my hands. My hands were multi colored with food coloring and sprinkles that had melted while clinched in my angry fist. It was really quite enjoyable to rip the legs off a barbie doll.


Queen Mom from the land of Icangroundyoufortherestofyourlife says this is her best picture of a kid blowing out candles she has ever gotten. You are looking at a masterpiece. Be in awe.

Opening the royal treasures. All the princesses are behaving in a very ladylike manner after attempting to start a riot for cake to be served.
I am glad to say that this party was a success. A hard earned success. :)

Now, this weekend was also my boyfriend's birthday. He turned 20. His birthday gift consisted of a nerf gun, Disney Cars erasers, First aid kit, and super hero band-aids.

Needless to say he was pretty dawg on excited. This picture is only a small glimpse of his excitement.

AND simply for a good giggle I am posting this picture of my uncles. Asleep on the couch. They look like mountainmen. Bless their hearts.

That's all for today.
I bid you farewell,
Princess Vivian of Ranchland *with heavy country accent*
(I had nothing better alright?)
