A Family That Plays Together Stays Together

Did you know that Guitar Hero World Tour came out yesterday? My man pre-purchased a copy months ago and has been counting down the days. Thankfully he has headphones.

Here are some random pictures of the past couple days. I've been really focusing on being silly and trying to have a fun light-hearted atmosphere in our home. The boys have been cracking me up!





Lisa, this picture is for you. Head to toe in camo. Drake loves his "ammo" hat.

Okay - you have been crazy busy posting! We missed our fall carnival and I felt so bad - my big pg body couldn't handle it on my own. That party looked like so much fun - what a great idea!

Guitar Hero is ruling the world! I tried it once at a friend's house. I'm afraid that if we actually owned it, I would get nothing else done. No kidding. I sort of have an addictive personality. My sister has a pinball machine in her basement, and the last time we visited I played so long that I gave myself sore muscles in my hands and forearms. I couldn't make a fist for days. Thomas had to stage in intervention.

I have to tell you that as I donned my old witch's hat for our ward's trunk or treat, I thought of you and your amazing Halloween costume creativity.

I'm trying to keep my costume on the DL until the big couples halloween party this Saturday. I want people to have their first reaction there - not "oh yeah, I saw that on your blog".

Don't get your hopes up, it's not all that fab but it's funny.

I love, love, love it. He needed his camo rain boots and it would have been OTT. It looks like fun times at the Turk house.

Blogging 101 - What Not To Do

Since I just did a post to welcome a bunch of new bloggers, I thought I'd give our newbies some good tried and true: Blogging 101 -What NOT to do! Yes, this is unsolicited advice from yours truly, but I think it's about time someone addresses the issues. #1. Don't get green with envy , Blenvy it's coined, while reading other's blogs. According to CJane , "It usually comes from reading a blog that emphasizes my insecurities." Well said blogger guru. I couldn't agree with you more. Please remember that each post is just a moment of that person's day/week. Instead, just be happy that something amazing happened to your fellow blogger. Be inspired by them! If you really feel the need, use that insecurity to make a change in your own life and do something similar. #2. If people don't update their blog roll by adding your name under 'Friends & Family' don't get your feelings hurt . It's simply a nice gesture, forgotten. Seasoned b...

Craft Closet Make Over

I've finally done it. After 2 years of living in this house, I've finally finished organizing the last closet in my home. This is the guest room closet that doubles as my "craft" closet. You could barely consider it a walk-in closet, but with 2 new shelves my man built for me over the weekend, it's got just enough space for what I need. Closet Before Closet Before - complete chaos ! After - view from hall (I used a different camera because mine is still broken. It was so hard to get these pics the space is so small. I hope you can get the idea.) Small shelf with hanging space for guests clothes - just above the door that goes to the attic. I spray painted 2 of these tins pink and glued flowers onto the other 3. Top Shelf Middle, 2 new shelves that Jason made and I painted white. I added these "curtains" to cover the other white bins and to make the space less messy. I used 2 tension rods and they open up in the middle. I was inspired by this craft room ...

I can't believe it, as of Tuesday, I have been blogging for one year! On the outside not much has changed: I have 3 boys, live in the same house, my man has the same job, and I still go to Mavens, book club, and dinner club with the same fab friends. But in reality a lot has changed: * Davis has braces * Davis is now medicated * Dylan has been diagnosed with ADHD and is now medicated {{a hit to my ego}} * Finished Mommy & Me gymnastics with Drake * Drake is talking a little * Drake is in a big boy bed - although still not sleeping through the night * Jason's going to school to get his MBA * Executive Homemaker which took over a year to design and 5 years as a concept is 15 months old and has 2,333 members and growing at a rate of 300+ new members every month. * Executive Homemaker's online store has grown from three to 26 Mom- prenuers ! * Tip Junkie is 11 months old * My house is a little prettier and more organized * My Dad is divorced * My brother Scott came home...
