Oh life...

Oh life, you have a cruel habit of getting in the way of this little blog. We have been doing a whole lot of nothing around here. Just living life, taking care of business, making memories and getting ready for Christmas.

I know I haven't blogged since I joined Thirty-One. But I joined in October and have had a few catalog shows and an open house event with two other direct sales companies. If you would like any information on the business, the products, how to place an order, or anything else please send me an email. I love this company and I love sharing how it has helped my family with others. I also attended the Spring Product Premier over the weekend and I LOVE sharing about all of the new products! Send me an email for more info.

Amelia is growing like a weed, she is so funny and smart. It amazes me how smart she is.

Some of her funny sayings right now:

When she asks for something and we tell her yes she will clap her hands and say "oh nank you nank you nank you!" (Nank you is how she says thank you)

When you ask her what Ava's dog's name is she will tell you Princess Wedda (Princess Lella), I ask her a hundred times a day just to hear her say it.

She will tell me that I am her best friend or her favorite princess. She will say "Mommy you my best friend ever ever the end" or "Mommy you my favorite princess ever ever the end". We read a lot of books and she always ends the book with "ever ever the end". I guess she thinks that is how you tell someone they are your best friend forever... It is too cute!

On the days when we are going places she will ask me where we are going she will say "Karmie's House?" "Erika's House?" "Mena's House?" If the answer is no to all three of those questions she will say "Awwww" like she is sad that we aren't going to one of those houses. (Mena is how Amelia says Mia, Mia is my mom)

She keeps us laughing, that's for sure.

What is new with all of you? Even though I don't post I still read blogs just about every day but some times I miss some.

Thanks for sticking around, maybe I can keep up with this little blog on a more regular basis...

I would get an F

If car maintenance were a course in school I would have gotten a big fat F. I know nothing about the in and outs of cars and all of their parts and I'm ok with that.

So imagine my panic when the tire on my husband's truck (that I was driving) went flat. Ugh! When my sister in law and I left her house it was fine, when we got to the gas station the guy next to us pointed it out. Y'all, I didn't even know it went flat. There was some road construction that we went through and that is the only thing we can think of that happened.

So here we are with a flat tire and I have no clue how to change one and I'm not sure that Heather knows how either. She called her husband (my husband's brother), my husband was 2 hours away at drill. My father in law was on his way to their house but we didn't know how close he was. He and my brother in law showed up at the same time to rescue us. About 10 minutes later we had the spare on and were on our way.

And the old tire? Not fixable... Seriously. It has a gash on the side of the tire, not the part on the road. And where is the gash? On the inside of the tire, like the side that goes under the truck! I have no clue what happened! Go big or go home, but seriously Kristen did you have to go that big?!

Looking back it is funny but it wasn't then. The whole situation got me thinking that now may be the time to start learning things here and there about vehicles, like how to change the tire and such... Do you know how to change a flat tire? If so would you like to teach me?
