T.N.T.

Elyott ducked into a neighbors house last week on an emergency potty run. And theeeeeen she came out with this. 


"Ty's mom said i could have it!"
...yes love...i'm sure she did. 
And what kind of mother would i be if i deprived my child a free 4 foot hot pink super static-y gorilla?? 
(answer: the kind who wished she had just let her kid pee her pants)

Love is:

spending "quality" time together

...this is what quality time means to Handsome Bob (who filmed and created the following):

dodge ball on Vimeo.

you see, it all worked out in the end. Ty's mom got rid of the giant gorilla from her house, and then we hit her kid (in the blue shirt) in the face with a giant rubber ball :)

(another bonus: after posting this video we'll probably never get asked to babysit for the rest of our lives!!!)

team Boo ♥'s you


p.s. please don't report us to CPS :)


p.p.s. oooh Renee i forgot...what you didn't see in the video is that our walls are actually made out of candy, and instead of walking we just ride hover boards. 

Plus my body transforms into Justin Bieber. sooooo....

I don't believe in one ways streets. Not between friends and not while i'm driving.

Can i make a confession?...call me a birthday scrooge, but phone calls on birthdays can be such a piece of crap*. All it means is that you have to do a run down of what you've done (or plan to do) like 17 times, all the while wasting any activity time you could be having with your wife who keeps trying to do stuff for your birthday but instead has to watch you talk on the phone...all day. It is a sweet thought (or possibly just obligatory?), but really...call the next day, send a card, or my personal fave...a text (both economical and time savvy!) Ba hum bug.

*Insert foot for when my kids are grown and away...in which case birthday phone calls are my favorite thing in the world.)

happy 29th birthday lover!

(and yes his glasses are pink)

(...and handsome bob)

whatta man.

Last week my man and i had our 8th anniversary...and much like Mary Catherine Gallagher, I feel my thoughts for my Handsome Bob can be best expressed through the classy lyrics of a song (by some of my junior high favorites Salt n' Peppa teamed up with the timeless vocal divas formerly known as En Vogue...this may only make sense to you if you were paying attention in the 90's).

So to quote some lines that come to mind (and are clean enough for this blog) "I'd like to take a minute or two and give much respect due to the man that's made a difference in my world...

a. my man says he loves me (never says he loves me not).

b. he spends quality time with his kids when he can. secure in his manhood because he's a real man.

c. not a fake wannabe trying to be a pimp.

d. he's a God sent original, man of my dreams.

e. it is me that he's choosin'. with him Im never loosin'. and he knows that my name is not Susan (although my middle name sorta is).

f. anytime i need him he's always got my back...never disrespectful ('cause his momma taught him that).

I gotta good man.


...So here's to the future cause we got through the past
and i finally found someone who can make me laugh
(ha ha ha ha ha)
you so craaazy...
I think i wanna have yo baby." 
(...or three of them. is there and higher/classier compliment than that?)

happy anniversary lover.

"Superstar!"

(my hands down favorite line is "e"...it reminds me of my terrible poems from third grade)

lean on me.

Today while i left to run some errands, Adam kept Sonny home with him. Much to my delight, he was feeling a little sassy and surprised me with a video he made just to make me smile. I loved it so much I decided to share it with you (even though he says he looks "pale and dead"). It may not be as amusing to you if you are not familiar with his personality. So at the very minimum you should know...a.) he's cute b.) he's funny c.) he's tall
(by the way, he would completely disapprove of me saying anything he did was "sassy")

Elyott watched it and thought it was funny, buuuut later needed clarification that Dad was joking about feeling all the things he was "confiding" in Sonny about. Don't worry family, he IS working.
...kinda ;)

team Boo ♥'s you

a love note.

Please know how madly in love I am

...and how much I appreciate all that you do for us.

The hardest thing I deal with on a daily basis

is not smothering you...

you are irresistible.


{love, Adam}

*don't get carried away though...this isn't typical...i suppose thats why i posted it. He's more of a, how should i say?...."slap my butt" kind of guy ;) but even those kinds of husbands have their moments ;)

Date with the night.

On the way home from the daddy daughter Suns game, as usual in the car, the daddy was griping about the traffic when Elyott politely put him in his place {as only a sweet 6 year old can}...

E: Dad, I bet you wish you were King of the world, huh?

H.B.: {laughing} yeah, i guess.

E: well, there's already a King of the world...

...but he lives in heaven, crazy!

Birthdays are for lovers.

Today is my husband's birthday.

this is him after i missed a photo op and made him act all nonchalant so i could take it again.  Still normal and particularly adorable...

On the other hand, well...this is what happens when people try and take candid pictures of me...

meet Drunkface Mcgee: 

It's true: I have the ugliest "in-between" faces. So my thanks to you Adam for being so cute and tall, making up for my lackluster face {and scary bunion feet}...this gives our children a fighting chance ;)

Happy Birthday, old-y.

♥I looove you ♥

Boys II Men

My sweet "stachio".  Only a voice crack away from a 13 year olds very first sign of manhood: behold the 5 o'clock Crustache.  


Why would you want one?  The same reason mullets are ever duplicated....because they're frigging awesome.  


Plus that's all my sweetheart can grow (i love him :) It's God's way of easing me into the idea of vacationing in Mexico(minus the pregnant street dogs, random gunfire, and almost pooping your pants on the car ride home). Baby steps sweetie, someday you'll grow that foo man chu...
