Happy Birthday to JoAnn!

CHILI"S and Festival of the Trees, what more can a group of Friends ask for??

Vanessa, Amanda, JoAnn and I got together last night to celebrate JoAnn's Birthday, it was a little late but still a lot of fun! We headed up to the LAKE and hit JoAnn's favorite restaurant CHILI'S. Dinner was good but the real treat was Vanessa hooking our waiter up with her sister in law. Warning: if you are single and Vanessa knows it you could have an arranged marriage without you even meeting your future spouse!! So hopefully he isn't a serial Killer! Then we headed over to the Festival of the Trees. This was a little overwhelming there was a bizillion trees to look at. We saw Samuel McClusky's tree and it was very touching. This kind of makes me sad to see all of the loved ones that families and friends have done trees in their remembrance. It makes me think of Jake and my little Zeke. But there were some pretty cool trees. The highlight of the evening was watching people, how they acted and most of all what they thought was appropriate to leave the house in. I could NOT believe how some of them were dressed. HORRENDOUS, I tell you! Any ways Happy (LATE) Birthday JoAnn!

Disney World 2008

WARNING: PICTURE OVERLOAD!!

It seems like I take my kids to Disney World every year. But there is one guarantee: They won't be going next year!! My kids are pretty good kids overall but when you go on vacation with the Kunzler Clan my kids look like complete TERRORS!! We went to Mickey's Magical Christmas party and it was really fun, it did rain on us alot but we still had fun! Cinderellas Castle was amazing!We waited in line for about 45 minutes so Rian could see her idols Mickey and Minnie and this is how she greeted them!!

The Kunzlers gave them a warmer greeting though!
We went to Sea World the first day we were in Florida and my kids had a lot of fun! This is JoAnn waiting to get Splashed by Shamu!
Our hotel was amazing we had an indoor pool and the kids swam all day if we weren't at a park!

Rian and Har Bar at the pool, Rian loves to swim she is a fish out of water!

Here is Kaleb on the Plane, he loves to take pictures of himself. This was the only picture I had of him on the Vacation. I suck at picture taking!!! All in all we had alot of fun, Next time I hit Disney World it'll probably be minus 4 children though!!!

Black Friday a COMPLETE SUCCESS!

SUCCESS, Yes you heard it right, I got everything I went looking for on Friday. So those of you who went to Walmart in search of a Power Wheels Jeep and came out empty handed, I am Sorry that Walmart didn't have enought for everyone, but the important thing is that I came I saw and I conquered BLACK FRIDAY!!! (was there ever any doubt?) But the real treat was Friday night when the whole FAM DAM heads over to Spanish Fork to the Christmas Night Parade.
As you can see Rian thoroughly enjoyed herself, I think she didn't want to sit on Har Bar's Lap!

Kaleb is a GRANNY'S BOY!!Kaleb had a lot of fun, I am not sure what this face he is making is but it is interesting!!

BLACK FRIDAY is almost here!!!

Who doesn't love getting up at 4 am and heading out shopping on Black Friday??? If this isn't something you have ever experienced then you need to come with me. It is truly a SPORT, and I love it. Every year my sisters and I get up around 3 or 4 am and head down to Wally World, where all the good deals are. They shrink wrap the pallets of anything on the BLITZ ad and at 5 am the poor employees have to cut the shrink wrap and try to dodge out of all of the commotion. IT IS GREAT. Most of the time I don't even have anything I am looking for I just go for the fun of it. If you want to go meet us at walmart at 5am or before if you want to get ahold of any of the deals!!

The Race is Over!!

Yes you heard right....YOU ALL LOST! I am the first to get my christmas lights up this year! I even beat Riley who LOVES the Holidays. As my Dad has always said to me, "Your running a race all by your self, no one is competing with you" Which may be true. But for all who know me well everything in Life is a COMPETITION!!! Today while I was hanging my lights, I got off the ladder because I noticed the UPS man was coming to my house. And he said to me, "It's a good thing that you got off your Ladder because anyone hanging their Christmas Lights this early needs to be knocked off the Ladder!" And I replied with a "Oh yeah, I bet your wife wishes her lights were already hung!" Then my neighbor yelled to me as I was finishing "Your making all the men in the neighborhood look bad". That may be true but the most important thing is that I WON!!! Even if no one was competing with me!!! I really just wanted them hung before I went to FLORIDA next week so I could enjoy them when I got back, and this weekend.....THE CHRISTMAS TREE!!!

Tagged By Jessica- 4th picture in the folder

I have to admit when Sammy called me today to tell me Jessica tagged me I was kinda relieved because I was just thinking about how neglected my blog must feel. I haven't been able to come up with any good bloggin material. So here it is.....The 4th picture in my folder..... Rian did her own make-up on this day. Isn't she beautiful? I figured between Harley's Haircutting and Rian's make up artistry I should be set as an old woman!!! If only Cheyenne would learn how to do nails then I wouldn't have to do my own!!!

I tag Amanda E, Vanessa and Teresa my HOMMIES from Softball!!

Vanessa's Month Long Birthday ends at WNO!

Witches Night Out!

Here we are, us Witches, although earlier in the day you might have switched the "W" to a "B" for me. I had an awful day, and to be honest with you I suck at wanting to dress up, so this was as Witchy as I could dress. Jason told me earlier as I was trying to find something to wear that the only thing witchy on me was my SCOWL! But I did have a ton of fun, we went out to eat at Famous Daves, and other than the entire restaurant staring at us as we were seated, and me tripping on JoAnn's shoes and kicking some little toddlers high chair nearly giving him whiplash it was very fun!

After Dinner we headed out to Gardners Village and did some browsing and shopping, but most of all we just WATCHED other witches and warlocks, some people are very interesting! But thanks to LeAnn, Shannon, Vanessa, Amanda and JoAnn for putting up with my WITCHY attitude and letting me come, I had a blast!

Here is a quick Clip of Vanessa, Shannon and LeAnn doing the Witch Parade, they were a hit!

High School Musical 3

OK I admit it we went opening day, not because we were dying to see it the first day but because I am very competitive and I wasn't going to have my kids being the only ones that didn't see it the first day. So my friend called and invited us to go with her and the kids and my first thought was (I haven't seen 1 or 2) so I wasn't sure if I was going to know what was going on but it wasn't like The Bourne Supremacy series or Pirates of the Caribean where you needed to see the first ones to know what was going on in the next ones. But overall it was Cute, funny and enjoyable. I even think Harley, Nicole and Jessica liked it. Cheyenne already knew all the words to the songs and when Zac and what's her name (the brunette girlfriend) had their smooching scene, I looked down at Kaleb, Trevor and Braden and they looked like they were thoroughly enjoying it.

Ellen Doing Cher!

I don't know if you saw this but it was pretty funny. Check her out! Click HERE to hear her DEBUT!

Rian is a Liar already!!

So my kids lie, I think most kids lie at some time or another. Rian is just starting early!! She is only 20 months old and she is already lying everyday. Some days 2 or 3 times a day. It all started with us taking the bottle away. I went to the Dr.s about 3 months ago and the Nurse Practitioner asked me if I had thought about taking the bottle away? And I said Yes, but my husband says she is too little. (He is having a hard time letting her grow up.) So after she proceeded to tell me about her teeth rotting, and all other problems that come with having a bottle to long, I decided it was time. However being the pushovers we are we decided that she could have water only in her bottle and if she wanted milk it would have to be in a sippy. Then she was waking up at night hungry so we give her a bottle at night only with milk now. Which brings me to the LYING. So when she gets really tired she cries and says "NIGHT, NIGHT." which she knows means botlle and then to bed. So lately when we think she is getting tired and ready for a nap, she will say "night, night" So we get her a bottle and lay down with her. And she will drink her bottle for about 10 minutes and then say, SEE YA or BYE BYE. As she gets down from the bed and goes to play. She totally knows how to play us and we are really going to have to put our feet down..... SOMETIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE!!! We SUCK!! And yes, that is a black eye, never leave a boy in charge of bath time, they think it is ok for a 1 year old to stand up and play around!!!!

BUNCO- Wouldn't have missed it for ANYTHING!

I am beginning to realize how WT my family is. Every year we have a couples BUNCO night around Halloween Time. And every year about half of us don't dress up, but not this year, this year everyone but one person dressed up and it was hilarious!!!

We had a T-Bird, and Pink Lady(my Mom and Dad) complete with "SMOKES And as my Mom told us to say the prayer she looked like this!!

Here is Sammy and I showing off our best assets! I couldn't get a picture without showing my PAYSON PRIDE PANTS!!

JoAnn is an like an adopted sister, even though everytime my Family does anything they always say does JoAnn want to come? So they consider her part of the FAM! She has attended BUNCO for 2 years in a row now and I am sure that she dies when she comes, but she was a cute witch and Mckenzie (My Business Partner) was a slutty witch (at least she was trying to be!!!) I told her she needed some falsies if she wanted to be a HOOCHIE WITCH!

This couple is my Sister Adrienne and her Hubby, Will a HUGE POLYNESIAN. However from this picture you may be wondering which one is really a girl, especially from the behind shot of his/her thong. He won best overall Costume.

We had Marge Simpson, complete with hairy legs and beard. (Josh) Marge is a real Cheater, I have never seen this side of Josh, and a lot other sides he was willing to share. Everytime he sat down he would spread his legs and kick one foot over the chair. We would all turn our heads and gasp hoping we didn't catch any glimpse of anything, I think he should have been Brittney Spears or Lindsey Lohan, with all his sharing!

Here are SAMMY and Ri-Camel Toe, I loved their dodgeball (or what ever you want to call them) Outfits! Hey that reminds me are we playing in the DodgeBall tournament again this year? It's coming up!!

This is my sister and brother in law dressed up as my MOM and DAD! This was the funniest because they really did resemble them!!

And here is the whole gang taking a moment before BUNCO and all the Cheating that went on to take a few Pictures! I have played for 15 years and have yet to legitimatly win a prize. My Mom goes through so much work to put this together every year and we always have so much fun. This year was by far the funnest, So thanks Mom for doing this and everything else you do for all 1000 of your kids and grandkids, Your The BESTEST!!!

What Twilight Star are YOU?

I haven't even read any of these books but I knew that some of my fellow bloggers had and they might want to know who they are. Especially Tyson, I heard he read these in record time and he is probably wanting to know who he is the most!

I am a Master Chef!!

Above you see a picture of my amazing creation. Once a year my sister in law and I get together and mass produce these babies! We made 20 pumpkin rolls in 3 hours, and that was with us having to leave to the store to get more cream cheese!!! This is a project that took 5 dozen eggs, 4 cans of Large pumpkin, 12 packages of Cream Cheese and alot other ingredients that would take to long to list. Thanks Angie for putting up with my sarcasm once (or a bizillion) times a year. This is a task that I am always glad when it is done that we only do once a year!

Can you say DYSFUNCTIONAL?

OK so this is truly how Family Pictures went, I honestly don't even know why we try. Yes my family is Dysfunctional in alot of ways but isn't every family to some degree. Some (MINE) are just a little more Dysfunctional than others. Notice Cheyenne and her never ending posing, she had some of the most horrific poses. When I get my CD I will post more Pictures!

TAAAADAAAA!!!

Here it is!! I tried to hurry so Tyson didn't die from holding his breath! This is the New Look! Vanessa helped me and this has been a month in the making! I just wanted to thank MacKenzie and Kiley for taking our family pictures. They turned out so cute!

STAY TUNED!

If any of you are wondering where I have gone, it is simple. I am in HECK!!! I felt like swearing but I am trying to turn over a new leaf! To sum it all up....My life sucks. I don't have a minute to myself. Therefore the blog has suffered a bit, not as much as Casey's did for a couple of months, or Heathers and Amanda's where they only update once a year, but it has been neglected. So stay tuned I am hoping to make a fierce comeback in the blogging world, I have been surfing the blogs today and it seems I am out of touch. If you take a gander at Vanessa's blog I am about 10 decades behind in what is cool in the bloggin world. I am hoping to sit down and have her tutor me and see if I can't catch on. Any WHO check back next week and I might be able to sit down for 10 minutes and do a real post!

Was there ever any doubt??

If you haven't heard yet we WON!!! Ok so we didn't win it ALL but we took 2nd place. One of my biggest pet peeves in Sports is when a team plays a whole season with one team and miraculously recruits an entire new team for the Tournament. Are the HOODIES worth their salvation??? I HATE CHEATERS!!! There is a big difference between having someone on your team that is not on the roster so you are not short players, and having 3 men that crank the ball over the fence everytime they get up that have never played during the regular season, and all for a HOODY!!! I basically put the blame of our not taking first place in 2 peoples laps, Tyson and Casey, they have shown their level of commitment to WellnessComplete over the last 4 weeks and it is not very committed. Next year I think we will have tryouts for the team I have people BEGGING to be on our team and we will have to find more committed players!! Thanks to everyone who played with us I had a ton of fun and I think next year I will try to keep it to buying only one bat a year, although there were 4 times that our men Cranked it over last night with my bats so I will have to see if they have enough of a sweet spot next year to last!! Peace Out!

Warning: MAJOR WRINKLES AHEAD!

Ok so I have been really bugged by all the wrinkles I am getting. What can I say my kids are making me old! The older I get the worse it is. So I decided to take action, I was going to get rid of them at any cost. So I make an appointment to see a dermatologist and see what he thinks. So I am in the room and the Doctor comes in and asks me what he can do for me, and I tell him how unhappy I am about my wrinkles under my eyes. And that I want him to laser them or something, basically whatever it takes.

He answers me by telling me to go to Walmart and get the Oil of Olay Regenerist line. Are you kidding me I am here asking him to name his price, I am willing to pay whatever and do whatever, and he tells me to go to Walley World??? I think I am going to get a second opinion!!!

I heard this might work, I think I will order it!

You can't always believe what you read (on Rileys Blog!)

Ok so before you read Ri-take advantage of me's blog I thought I better put my side of the story, better known as the truth out there. So it's a beautiful Thursday night in P-town and we are at the Baseball Park playing a otherwise friendly co-ed softball game when something awful happened to me. But before I tell you about the awful thing I thought I would mention two things, First, that in the first game of the night I parked the ball over the left fielders head not once but twice resulting in 2 triples and COUNTLESS RBI"S. Then the 2nd thing I want to mention is that I own all the bats that Riley will have available to him on our next Wednesday night game and I told him if he blogs about my unfortunate event then the Wrath (his Favorite) wasn't going to make it to the games on Wed. So back to the story, second game of the night and many countless mistakes have been made by my teammates none of which I ever blog about but I was on First and Mckell who plays an OK second base chucks the ball at me it is hardly catchable, but somehow I get my 1975 Regent mitt on it. The ball hits my mitt and the person that hit the ball knocks it out of my mitt and it somehow hits me right in the left eye!!!

This is the honest truth, don't believe what Ri-LIAR has written about me. None of it is true.

Funny things Kaleb did to me this summer

Kaleb or Tibby as I call him is a very interesting kid. When we moved into our new house and he got his new room he said to me "Mom, now that I got my new room can I hang up pictures of fast cars and hot girls in bikini's?" He was 5 at this time.

This is basically how Kaleb has been his whole life, he is a TOTAL LADIES MAN. When he recorded his song on my ipod and he thought he had done such a good job, he asked me if he could get some hot girls and do a music video now.

But one funny thing he did this summer was he rode his new bike down to the pool the first day that it opened, I don't know why I thought he would be responsible and lock it up on the bike rack, but 4 hours later when he got done swimming he went out and his bike had been stolen. So he borrowed someone's blackberry and called me and this is how the conversation went. "UMMM Mom, someone stoled my bike" And I without even thinking said "Kaleb, I am gonna kick your A_ _" and then he says, "UMMM Mom, your on speaker phone." Who calls their mom with bad news and puts them on speaker phone for the whole town of Payson to hear? Kaleb that's who.

The last thing I thought was so funny was the first week of school I went to pick him up and he had his new LOOOONG BOARD (that he suckered his grandma into buying him as an "Early Christmas Present, WHATEVER!) and his hands were full, so he asked me to open the door for him, and I in turn told him that I couldn't because I couldn't reach it, the next thing I knew he had somehow fell, keep in mind all the kids and teachers were out and saw him. So he stands up and begins to take his anger out on my BUG door, hitting, kicking and cursing at it. I started to laugh so hard that I couldn't even talk to tell him to settle down. I looked out the window and some other mom was watching the whole thing and she tooo found it humorous.

Kaleb is a fighter but he is also a lover. When ever he gets in trouble he says, "It's OK Mom, I still love you!" Life will forever be interesting with him in our house!

WellnessComplete UNSTOPPABLE (almost)

WellnessComplete played 2 more games yesterday and they were virtually unstoppable. The first game we played we actually 10 run ruled the team!! And they were a pretty good team but they just couldn't conquer us. The Stoppability started in the first game when we were up to bat for about 10 minutes and it seemed like the other team was never going to get 3 outs on us, when it was time for ELTON to bat he was nowhere to be found. It seems as though Vivi had a diaper that was LONG overdue to be changed. Therefore we had to take an automatic out. Then there was a conspiracy planted in the schedule that gave us an hour to sit around and relax before our second game, normally we play back to back which would have kept our heads in the game. In that hour one of our teammates who I will not name (KEELY) left us high and dry which left us with only 4 girls. So I called in the BIG DOG (AMANDA GOODSELL) and we were back in business. Just as the game was getting ready to start, SAMANTHA needed to visit the Ladies Room, and as she finished up she realizes she had sat down in an ocean of PEE!! (Hint: I never sit down in Public Restrooms unless there is one of those Paper thingys, and I make sure that it doesn't soak into the seat before I sit). When it came to the coin toss we sent TYSON who has hardly showed up to any games, and that was another mishap, VISITOR!! So the second game got under way and it was against a team that had already beat us earlier in the season. It was neck and neck the whole way through, except when the Scorekeeper kept giving our points to the other team. The game ended as they scored 1 more run than us and the time ran out on us with 2 outs. DANG, oh well there is always next year but we were really a force to be reckoned with!

WTC 1987, I am sooo Younger than that

You Belong in 1987

Wild, over the top, and just a little bit cheesy. You're colorful at night - and successful during the day.

What Year Do You Belong In?
