Creepy Crawly Craft for Moms

-
Mayhem and Moxie are having a link-up today for Creepy Crawly Crafts (and are one of 4 blogs giving away a Flip camera-thinger [that's the technical term, of course]). I decided to show you all my creepy crawly craft for mommies. I will admit that these are not my pictures because my camera is not that great (hence, why I need this Flip camera-thinger).

Randi's Creepy Crawly Craft

1. Have a "fun" night in with your husband (followed by or following other nights of said fun).

2. Pee on a stick. Check stick for words, colors, crosses, lines, or something to that extent.

3. Keep a bun in the oven for nine or so months.

4. Push a small, screaming creature out of 10cm hole.

The end product: Spider Veins

Extra Credit: Stretch Marks
While those do look like my stretch marks (and my maternity jeans), keep in mind that neither of these images are my body. I do have small spider veins and many, many stretch marks.

Scary craft, right?

Hey Jen... it's all funny until you are the one with the vericose veins! They are ugly, painful, and pretty much impossible to get rid of. And I get them really bad. Don't laugh.

LMBO!!!! i totally thought this was going to be a food craft so when i looked at the pictures i just about ralfed!
and i totally understand your post on my wall...and ther are a lot of days i really enjoy where i'm at. but some days you just don't...and those are the days i need to talk about and those are the days when i'm really conscious that most of my friends are married or will be. and those are the days where it's the same advice from everyone...singleness is a gift, etc etc etc. but sometimes singleness is like the sweater you get from your crazy aunt. you wear it because you love her, not because you love it. ;)

SUPER FUNNY blog by the way. if there was a star rating i'd give you 6 our of 5

MOB Society: Bragging on Boys

-
Image
Like my friend Erin shared in her "bragging" post, I don't necessarily want to "brag" about my boys but I am overjoyed at some of their accomplishments recently! So I will share with you! Moose is doing wonderfully at school. We moved him to the afternoon classroom and his teacher said that his behavior problems that they saw in the morning have virtually disappeared. Great! Twice last week (once at school and once at Sunday School) his teachers told me that he shared with someone. What a sigh of relief that one is; sharing is so hard but to know that what I'm implementing at home is working (even the itsy bitsiest bit!) is a relief.  I've noticed that baby toys are most enjoyed by the older crowd. Moose is also reading! I got the sight word list that kindergarteners start off with from his teacher - he read them all for me this morning. I bought a Chuggington book for him on their last book order - he read it by himself after only having it read

Greater (movie review)

Sports movies are some of my favorite ones; even better if they are underdog stories! "Greater" is just that - a true underdog story about Brandon Bulsworth who could be called the greatest walk-on in the history of college football. The movie follows Bulsworth from the time he's a kid. His mother is raising he and his brother (who is quite a bit older; old enough to be mistaken for his dad, laughably). His brother gives him a kick in the pants when Brandon claims he wants to play for the Arkansas Razorbacks. Brandon was a heavy kid so no one really thought it would happen. However, Brandon worked as hard as he could and made it. Walked on the team and caught the attention of his coach who put some amazing work into this kid to help him become better. I love when coaches look at the heart of a player more than ability. This really is an amazing story, an amazing movie - full of inspiration and encouragement. Things that seem impossible become possible. The rea

Big A is forever telling me to not say certain things on the road. Don't call me dear. Don't gasp or shout; I'll think there's a deer. Although these are paraphrased (and he claims he's never said the first one), these are the basis for this tale. We went to the Husker game last night. Scratch that - we worked at the Husker game last night. We helped his aunt (and her church) sell backrests as a fundraiser. Big A has done this most of last year & all of this year so far. He loves it. You sell backrests until kickoff, then you watch the game, and pick up the rests after. You're there 90 minutes before game time and for about an hour or so after the game. And you sometimes get leftover food (Runzas and hotdogs and popcorn - please fine out what a Runza is for those of you who aren't from Nebraska....it's so yummy!). Anyway...we went to the game & a few of our friends helped pick up the chairs voluntarily after so (with that help plus our amazing sp
