Spinlash Mascara

Cierra- Mom, do you want Spinlash Mascara?
Me- Sure, that would be great.
Cierra- It is really cool because it has two rotating brushes that lift and curl your eyelashes (no joke, she is telling me this).
Me- Really? That sounds pretty good.
Cierra- Yeah, and it comes with a mirror. And if you hurry you will get two Spinlashes but only one mirror.
Me- Oh, well how much is it?
Cierra- $19.95

Really, my daughter is trying to sell me something she saw on an infomercial? There is no hope. However, I find peace in knowing that she knows a good deal when she sees one;)

Hi Grandma Gilbride!

Hi Grandma. I hear you read my blog and just wanted to say hi and tell you that I am glad you get on here to see the kids grow, seeing as how I am TERRIBLE at sending pictures.
Hope you are doing well!! Love you tons.

Has this ever happened to you?

I am nervous to read my book.......A couple weeks ago I was at the store looking for a new book and picked up one called "The Shack" by Wm. Paul Young. The subtitle says, "Where tragedy confronts eternity". I like a book with substance...something that makes me feel something so the subtitle grabbed my attention. I had no idea it was a Christian fiction book, which is fine.
Turns out it is about a family whose daughter is abducted and then killed. I am sure I am not alone in that I have a hard time reading or watching anything that has anything to do with a child being hurt or abused. So I am to the chapter where the daughter goes missing and I am TERRIFIED to continue, even though it has been a great book and I can tell it is going to be awesome. Ron noticed I was reading it and said that people at his work have been talking about it and that is a great book. I really should pick it back up, but not tonight...Biggest Loser is on!

Family pictures minus two

My friend Christy is an awesome photographer and is always so nice to take our pictures. We went out Saturday evening to her property and besides a major allergy attack the pictures turned out great I think. Thanks Christy!!!

We are sad that Josh and Zach aren't in them, but when they come next we will do it again!
