Dance Recital 2009

I know you've all been waiting for this since last year's "Candy Ballerina"...Gwen's dance recital was a HUGE success! She did a fantastic job and had 2 dance numbers this year: one tap (Broadway Baby) and one ballet (Make a Wish).

Here is a picture "pre-show" getting ready...ahh, gotta love the spongey rollers!Here are others at the arts center, before and after the performance...

And of course, let's not forget Graelyn...here she is posing as we are telling Gwen to...she's already got it down...look for her dancing debut possibly next year:)
Here are the 2 videos of the actual performances, as promised above! Enjoy!

OK, that's it...just thought I'd share...just really excited about the lemonade, bbq sauce and salad dressing!!! Happy Hump Day (take that however you need to:)

Here's a new one for you...

So, not much is going on in our world so I haven't been able to post much...the girls are growing, 99% of the time are happy, healthy and sweet and we're all just truckin' along...but Seth and I have been debating and working to get new phones...you see, mine is held together by duct tape and his, well, his is fine but we have a family plan so if you upgrade one, you upgrade all...anyway, seems to me that the carrier we're with (let's call it AB&B for Jennifer's sake of paranoia) is WAAYY too expensive and there are cheaper plans and carriers out there...so, here you go, give me your thoughts and let me know what you think about your carrier, cell phone, etc...

Nothin' says easter like a 4-wheeler...

Yep, you read right...my dad came over for Easter and surprised the girls with...a 4 wheeler!!! No freakin' kidding! They actually were super excited about it and we're just waiting for the battery to charge for 18 hours (yeah, 18 hours folks, Gwen was NOT happy about that) and they are off...sooo, I suggest if you are anywhere near hwy 377, you might want to take an alternate route, because the Lindbloom girls look to be heading North towards 1171 and Flower Mound. They're looking for the new hire at the "circus" or carnival...his name...Origami Tate...he can fold himself into anything...literally...just take a look. Oh, and here's a picture of the bad boy...the 4 wheeler that is...come over any time...we now have 2, yes 2 moterized vehicles for the girls so they'll be willing to share...we have a pink Jeep too...is it bad that the girls have a nicer car than I do?

REALLY???

OK, so I'm on my lunch break, looking at blogs and I check out my celebrity mommy blog and here's what it says, "Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber take a family walk in New York City with their two, Alexander, 1, and Samuel, 3 months."

And then here's the picture:

Did you notice anything? They clearly say Liev and Naomi are walking with BOTH boys...sorry folks, only one kid in this picture...this Maclearan stroller is a SINGLE...do you think baby Samuel is under Naomi's scarf??? I just don't see it...also on the blog they post this picture and comment about Tori Spelling, "A svelte looking Tori Spelling heads out for some shopping in Los Angeles."
Definition of svelte: slender, esp. gracefully slender in figure; lithe...ok, ok, she is SLENDER and by slender I mean anorexic!!! She is TOO small...eat girl, eat!

OK, so Seth is basically a movie star just not quite...

So I'm sitting here watching Ellen (she and I would be SUCH good friends by the way) and Paul Rudd is on...I guess he's like super popular right now...I've loved him since he was on Friends as Phoebe's future hubby...but I digress...anyway, he's so cute and funny and I kinda have a little crush on him...like I do with Colin Firth (seriously cute and fun in Mamma Mia, Bridget Jones, etc...) and I realized...not only is Paul Rudd cute like Coline Firth...he's CUTE AND FUNNY, DARK HAIRED, SILLY...LIKE SETH!!!! So basically, it all goes back to the fact that I have a huge crush on my husband I guess...you'd think my celebrity crushes would be DIFFERENT than my own man...but nope...so its settled folks, Ang has a type and is pretty much sticking to it.

PS, here's an example of DIFFERENT crushes...my super amazing friend KJ's husband is tall, thin, khaki pants, kinda guy...he and Seth are good friends, but let's face it they get nerdy when they quiz each other on their Star Wars knowledge and electronical talk, but KJ's celebrity crush is Jon Bon Jovi...yeah, TOTALLY different.

Anyway...peace out!

Yeah yeah yeah, this is a family blog...I get it...and I also get that I'm posting about the Bachelor I just watched...what a crock is all I have to say about that...Jason picks Melissa (so good) and then on "after the rose" he takes that back and picks Molly...AND SHE ACCEPTS! OK, Molly, seriously???? He just dumped one girl and wants you...doesn't that sound shady to you? Don't you question him? Don't you think that maybe, for just one stinkin' second that he'll do the EXACT same thing to you? Give me a freaking break...I watched all season long for this? An indecisive single dad? Man, THAT'S a new story...yeah, you should have stayed single Jason, because dude, you seriously have some issues...I'm just sayin'
