Canton, Puppy Bowl, Super Bowl, 30 Day Shred & the Plague...

Sorry, this is going to be a long post today...We've had a lot going on in the last week or so. The ice storm of 2009 passed & things went back to normal-ish. Saturday Brock had to work & it was BEAUTIFUL outside so I decided go to Canton. I LOVE Canton. I think I'm going to go every month, it makes me happy.



I buy things like these... big, SPARKLY jewelry, more sparkles for the house, a big bowl of a thing for the kitchen table, raw , wooden crosses that I will paint someday.



Sunday was the Super Bowl, which means the Puppy Bowl, too. Montana is fascinated with animals on TV.



He will sit & watch.




He'll run up & try to sniff them & play with them...




And he will whine & cry & grunt... it's hilarious, it never gets old...




We went to Super Bowl party with some friends. All of which have kids. I think I got my baby/kid fix for awhile. This picture only shows a few of the children, there were seven. Don't get me wrong, I love them all, but I also love that they all went home with someone other than us.



This one might be my favorite... I love him to pieces...itty bitty pieces... C man is a year old today.




This little guy is pretty cool, too, I love these guys... It's big B & little B (he's showing you his muscles), little B is "3 quarters" which means, 2 & 3/4... it's really hard to get a picture of someone who is "3 quarters" when there are 6 other kids running around...



But when 4 of the kids leave little B gets calmer, he evens meditates... while watching football...on the piano bench...





And then he sleeps... so sweet... & quite...






Remember how I said that we are going to take a vacation this summer? Our first real vacation since our honeymoon. We've been places but they all involved the Cowboys, weddings or watching Colter race. My definition of vacation includes relaxing, relaxing and more relaxing. I'm not the touristy type, I do plenty at home. I want to go somewhere & do nothing where I won't feel guilty doing nothing... Hopefully we will be doing a whole lot of nothing here...





Well, a vacation here requires a person to wear a swimsuit. We aren't currently in any shape for that, so we've started... (yes, both of us) it's a bonding experience...


Yes, that is the lady from the Biggest Loser, and she is mean... she is mean on the show & she is mean in the DVD player... This fun 20 minute workout is a killer. I thought "sweet, I can do 20 minutes, how hard can this be?" Twenty minutes of HELL everyday for 30 days. Every 10 days you move up a level, there are 3 levels...right now we are on day 3 of level one...ugh...so sore... I yelled bad words at Miss Jillian yesterday...she is mean.
Today I have time to blog because I was home most of the day... I was afraid I had the plague (the flu). My school is contaminated with the flu, like more than 100 kids out everyday this week, contaminated... & I woke up with a HORRIBLE headache & nausea, the symptoms that most people at school have had....Fabulous. I toughed out getting ready, told my self over & over that I wouldn't throw up in the car & made it to school. See, teachers don't have the kind of job where you call your boss & say "hey, I'm sick, I'm not coming..." I lasted a whole hour before they sent me home.
But, I don't have the plague (PRAISE GOD!) after some pain meds, sinus meds & a day long nap I feel MUCH better. Hopefully that's all it was, now if my ears would unplug I would be awesome. I feel like I'm wearing ear muffs...trivial compared to having the flu. Brock is struggling too. Sore throat, cough...yuck. That being said we won't be having our date with Miss Jillian tonight...oh darn it...
