Long time no blog

Does any one ever check this thing? Well in case some one does - Girl's night is at Jennifer's tonight... Hope to see you all there - Suzie, Lisa, Brandy....

The plans for Thursday night

First of all, as you can see the "soccer mom" shirt won the poll. Hopefully everyone is ok with that. It is going to look great!

Now, the plans. What has been decided is that we are going to Chili's around 8:30, I know some of you are thinking that is way too early and that you do not want to come that early. If that is the case we still would like everyone to come whenever you can. We have decided that we want to get to the theater kind of early since it sounds like it is going to be pretty nuts. It will be a ton of fun though just to hang out and have a good time (how can it not be a good time when you get a little break from the younguns).
I am super excited and it seriously is going to be a ton of fun!! Be sure you bring your cameras because you will want to remember what an awesome time we had.

New Background

I changed the background (obviously). If anyone, and I mean ANYONE, wants to change it to something else, please feel free! I just got the new one from the cutest blog on the block site. Also, feel free to change the colors of the text too.

Vote for your favorite saying.

To the side you will see a poll to vote for the saying we will put on our Twilight T-shirts. Be sure you choose wisely because it will be a shirt you will want to wear ALL THE TIME because they will be soooo cool!!!! You need to vote ASAP because we have to get them done now to have them for the movie.

Girls night 11/6

Tonight girls night is going to be at Brandy's house. She is going to be having a Heritage makers party. It will be a lot of fun. If you need directions to her house just give one of us that live in the neighborhood here a call.

First and foremost, TWILIGHT!!!

So, last week Twilight movie tickets went on sale for a Thursday November 20th midnight showing. Keri and I got a list of people who wanted tickets and we went and purchased a bunch. I realize the show is still a month away but I did not want to chance the tickets selling out (there were only 240 tickets left when we got them, man were we cutting it close). Here is a list of those that we got tickets for

• Me, Nicole
• Keri
• Leilani
• Krista
• Susie
• Hollie
• Carla
• Carla's friend
• Sharina
• Michelle

To claim your ticket please pay Keri your $7. She will be keeping the tickets hostage until you have payed for them and if you do not pay for them by November 13th she will be selling them to someone who really wants it. And just so everyone is aware, everyone is totally and completely invited to this event if you are not on the list and would like to come GREAT, the more we have the more fun it will be (your just responisble to get your ticket, so get it soon before it is sold out). Now, remember this is a midnight showing but we are still planning on doing something before hand also. What that something is we are not sure of yet but you know it will be fun whatever it may be. I am expecting several of you to dress in character, please try and coordinate so we do not have duplicates, you wouldn't want to look silly now would you?!

Secondly (yes I really had a second point to this rambling post), sorry about last week and there being no girls night info. Everyone's lives were a little crazy last week and no one was really up for it, so there was no girls night. There will be girls night this week however, it will be at my house. I expect to see everyone there!

Lets party

Ok, this week for Girls night we are going to party. First of all, Megan will be visiting so that will be fun and then we are going to be celebrating some birthdays, YAYY!!! Leilani, Keri, and Liskins birthday are all right together. And what better way to celebrate a birthday than with a party. So, we will be meeting at Shanette's around 7:30'ish and it is a potluck so bring some yummy things (and if at all possible the recipe so we can post them here). If you need the address for Shanette's contact one of us. It is going to be a TON of fun so everyone is going to want to be there for sure!!!!

So, girls night this week is at Sharina's. It will be the usual "whatever" night. A few people will be making a little mini preschool album with Sharina. Those of you who are doing it know who you are; contact Sharina for the things you need to bring for that.

Also, a little side note. You will all want to be sure and try to make it next week to girls night. We will be having a guest visitor that you will all want to see. Yes, Megan C. is going to be in town and is planning on coming to girls night. There was a special request from Megan that Lisa come. Yes, Lisa I am talking to you (don't worry she just wants to use you for your bow tieing expertise) I am kidding ,she wants to see you too but does want some help with some hair bows.

I pee - you pee... I want to have your recipe!

This Thursday we are going to have a recipe swap. Bring any recipe that you love, and bring several copies of it! Reminder: girl's night is at Nicole's.

Party on!

Layers of fun at Girl's Night

Hey all my girl's night buddies! This thursday I am going to host girl's night, and throw a Layer's party at the beginning. Can't wait to see you all there!

• Bring treats if you wan't, but I will also be providing lots of yum!
• Don't forget to bring your projects as well, I will have the tables set up - in case someone is feeling motivated! {fat chance I know- but Nicole has started knitting- so there is a chance}
• I told Sharine Carter - the lady who sells the stuff, that we will have it at 9- I know it's earlier than we normally get together {lately}, but there is so much partying to do that we need more time!
