Vegas Baby!

Last weekend I took some time off and headed over to Las Vegas with the girls!! Party time!! It a weekend full of awesome food - laying out pool side - drinks - and more drinks - and of course hitting the clubs to dance our little buns off! We stayed at the Luxor - which was great - the elevators there go sideways and totally throw off your equalibrium! We also hit club LAX, Revolution, and Cathouse. The DJ at LAX was AMAZING and had the whole place dancing the night away!

We even attended the Thunder Down Under - a male review show which was halarious and totally worth the $58 a ticket!! One of the best finds was a restaurant called Diablos - a mexican themed cantina on the strip. It was a blast! Whenever I hang with my girls we are always laughing non-stop and have the best time! We had such a great time we have already planned a Vegas trip for April 2009!

Conversations with Kyle....

Recently our HOA has decided to place big bolders all around our neighbrhood to make it look even more "Arizonaish" (another example of how lame our HOA is and how they spend our money on redicilous things such as big boulders)...Anyhow enough of me bitching about the HOA....Have I ever mentioned that I have TWO HOA's? Who has TWO HOA's?! Ok ok ok I'll stop....this entry is about Kyle not our HOA - I'll have to write and tell you stories about them sometime!

OK SO on to bigger and better stuff - Kyle and I were driving home from school the other day and he noticed all the big boulders..

Kyle: MAMA look at all the big rocks!!!

Kristy: Yes - look at them all - Do you like them?

Kyle: Ya - It must be Earth Day!

Kristy: Why do you think it's Earth Day?

Kyle: Because all these big rocks fell down from the heavens...


Awww how cute is that! Maybe these big rocks are'nt so bad after all - they make my son say cute things - so maybe they will grow on me....

Hallelujah...Hallelujah

I am soooo happy oh so happy! Some of you know - others may not - however I am so excited to announce that I won an award at work for highest volume of sales! For my award I was offered a wii or an iphone - however with my masterful selling skills I sold the idea of a new Canon Digital Rebel XT to my manager - I already have an xbox and a decent phone - so I thoght I would try the camera I have been dreaming of and almost purchased multiple time but always got too scared due to the price! Anyhow today at work I got to pick it up and it's soooo beautiful and even more beautiful that it was free for me!! Here is a picture of my new baby - Isn't he a looker!!!
B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L!!

A weekend of ups and downs....

WOW what a roller coaster this past weekend has been. I went from celebrating Kyle's 5th b-day on Friday, to hearing that I won an award at work for higest volume of sales, to hearing about another friend getting divoriced, to hearing about the new birth of a friends baby girl, to hearing about an old friend who is thirty who found out that her breast cancer has spread into her lungs and has months to live....
I'm not sure how I feel on this monday morning..a little exhausted emotionally from sorting out all of these higs and lows...
Just makes me think even more to try and appreciate EVERY single day I have with the people I love...

Conversations with Kyle....

Kyle: If I ever have a brother I want to pick the name...

Kristy: Really? What would you name him?

Kyle: T....and his middle name would be Rex - we would call him T-Rex

Kristy: Hmmm we will have to think about that one....

Kyle: ok - I love TRex for my brother.

April - A crazy month so far!!!

Whew! I feel like I have been running non-stop since April started!! Here are a few highlights thus far....
1) Zack and I went to our friend Kelie and Bemo's wedding - we had a blast!
2) I took Kyle to go see Horton Hears a Who - VERY cute - loved it
3) My manage at work left.....very sad..lot's of changes...he was an awesome manager - it was hard to swallow..
4) Won free movie tickets from work so Zack and I saw the movie 21 - kinda slow....
5) Had my 3 month follow up post surgery to make sure everything is clear- she said I am healing very well - I find out results in 7-10 days NERVE RACKING - if all is clear I follow up in another three months - if not it's back into surgery )=
6) I have been planning Kyle B-Day party - Train themed party at Desert Breeze Train park - even ordered a train shaped cake!! I'll also be bringing cupcakes into his class on Friday the 11th - his actual birthday.
7) I'm planning a bachelorette party for my friend Christie - very fun!
8) Still working on back yard - built in BBQ is almost done!
9) I ended up with the higest sales numbers on the board for the month of March! Go me!
10) Kyle is now playing soccer again - and is in a program at school called JumpBunch - a coach works with him on all sports - baseball, football, etc - very cool!

Luv you all....
