I'm leaving on a jet plane!

Tomorrow at this very minute Todd and I will be boarding a plane for Las Vegas!!!  I CAN"T WAIT!! 

In the meantime I have so much crap to do.....but instead I will blog and let you all know that i still don't have the photos uploaded from the past 2 months.....it seems that the cord for my camera has been misplaced.  I don't even know what it looked like to begin with so I can't help much in this area.  Soon though....Promise.

Karley had parent teacher conferences last week.   Todd and I got a babysitter and went to that and then out to dinner after.  She is doing an amazing job in 2nd grade and we are very proud. 

Last weekend we got my parents almost all of the way moved in.  Starting March 9th  they will be living with us while their new house is being built.  It is going to be an adventure.  I am so excited to have some additional hands around the place to help me clean out closets, drawers, storage rooms and help with Karley.  Who knows--Todd and I might even be able to escape for a little vacation.  I am very excited to watch (and live through) the progress of them building their new place.  I am also very thankful that Todd gets along with my parents so well.....I  am not sure if the roles were reversed I could do the same.  :)

So, Back to Vegas.....I need to run off and get my crap together.....Wish me luck!!!  If I win big I promise to share the wealth!  Keep your fingers crossed!!

Time to update!

Whew!  I can't believe this is my first post of 2011!!  It has started off just as 2010 ended.  Busy.  I have decided that I am giving up on trying to have a "non-busy" life.  It's not for me.  :)

So, I promised some Christmas photos and i still can't figure out how to upload them....boo.  I will get the hubby on that pronto.

Since my last post---December 31---I lots of things have happened.  I turned a year older, we had a New years eve party at our house with some good friends, my parents sold their house and are finalizing the new project, and we have seen a crap load of snow.  Karley and I flew to Oklahoma for a long weekend to visit some good friends and had the BEST time.  The same friend we went to see just spent the past weekend here in Topeka hanging out! 

I will try my best to catch you up  so far. 
For my birthday Todd and Karley got me a consultation for a interior decorator to come into our home and help me re-decorate. I am so excited to call and get this all lined up.  It is one of the best presents ever.  My husband is so smart!!!

My parents sold their house!!!  I am very excited for them and the next few months will be crazy busy for them.  They are building a fantastic house in an awesome neighborhood.  I am so proud of them for doing this!!  How exciting.

We have had 10 inches of snow plus 8 inches on top of that plus around 6 on top of that which means a whole-lotta school canceling. Karley has been thrilled but i gotta say we are getting dangerously close to getting into the make-up-in-the-spring days so i am ready for it all to stop.  There is not an end in sight either....More snow predicted for tonight.  Boo to that.

I had a open house for my friend from Oklahoma last weekend and it was a HUGE success.  I am so happy with how many people came!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Karley has been in dance, hip-hop and basketball and that has kept us very busy the past few months.  WHEW!  She is so much fun. 

Todd and I leave for Las Vegas in just a few weeks and we can't wait!  It will be relaxing and action packed.  We purchased our show tickets this past weekend and have the countdown on!!

SO--- my next post will include pictures.  Promise.....i think. 
Have a great week!!!
