Master Zumba Class

Pure Exhilaration!!!!! So I love to go to the gym, my favorite classes are dancing ones.....Salsa, bellydancing and Zumba (Latin Dance). Well tonight I got to attend a "Masters" Zumba class taught by the co-founder of Zumba. FANTASTIC..... She was amazing. She had so much energy and made the class soooo much fun! It lasted a whole 2 hours *can I mention that I took an hour spin class and a 30 min ab class already today (why am I not a size 6)* Anyway, I was dying! I am a sweaty girl.... I'm not ashamed to say it.... I sweat lots when I work out, especially dancing.... well I looked like I had taken a shower in my clothes - NEVER before have I been dripping so badly (nice visual there). It was amazing though, lots of the ladies I dance with where there so the energy was great and WOW what a good time. So there ya go, share with me my excitement cause now I am going to take a long shower and sleep for at least 4 days.....ZZZZzzzzzzzzzz

Is it A Bird? Is it A Plane?

The Scene: Airport in New Mexico, the family sitting next to this nice elderly couple making small talk.

Ryan pushes up to the older man and begins rubbing his legs (mind you he had shorts on so Ryan is rubbing his hairy legs - aagghhh!)

Ryan "Hey can I sit on your lap"
Kim (dying a slow death) "Ryan come sit here"
Man "What did he say" *I really don't think he heard Ryan, thank goodness*
Ryan "I just wanna sit on his lap"
Kim "We don't sit on total strangers laps ok"

Captain Underpants Strikes Again....

The Scene: Sam & Kids at the Condo Pool in Florida (Kim MIA *gone on long walk*)

Sam looks over to find Ryan with his arms around a guy that's soaking in the pool, talking the guys ear off and bobbing up and down beside his big, hairy belly......eeewww!
I can't leave the kids for a minute.....lol.

The Adventure Continues

The Scene: Sam and Ryan in a public mens room

Strange man walks in to use the restroom. Ryan points at the man and says in a deep voice, "Hey You.... You're scary....."
The man laughs and sams muffles an apology under his breath as Ryan continues, "Hey you, you're scary....you got tatooooos everywhere"
Sam quickly escorts Ryan out of the restroom laughing.....

The Adventures of Captain Underpants

The Scene: Fairfield Hotel in Provo, UT - Elevator

As we pull up to the hotel, Ryan spots a man smoking outside. We end up taking the elevator up to the room, with this guy. For those of you who aren't familiar with Provo - total Mormonville - so not too many smokers!

In the elevator:

Ryan (with a tattle tale voice) "Hey I saw you smoking........"

Man (with a smile) "Yeah"

Ryan "do you know you shouldn't smoke" "Why you smokin"

Kim "Thanks Ryan that's enough"

As we walk into our room and the man passes.....

Ryan "His lungs are gonna die from smokin"

I CAN READ!!!!

Jacob is pretty sure a miracle just took place. He read a whole book after school today! I have to say I was impressed! He's such a smart little guy and passed off his sight word soldiers for kindergarten last year....... But a whole book - what just happened????

Five Little Monkeys!!!

He read it like 4 times.......

I'm in shock and the boy is a genius!

Back To School

After a busy summer and long flights back from Florida - just yesterday - the kids were so ready and excited to go back to school............

Baili and Jacob kinda switched roles, Jacob was nervous until we got to his line and he saw Mrs. Kaiser- then he pretty much gave me my walking papers *bye mom*............lol

Baili on the other hand, surprised me with her nerves. She wanted to stand at the back of the line - Hello.....my social butterfly was having a "SHY" moment - stop the world!!!!

She survived the day, had fun and loves her teacher Mrs. Jefferson.

Me on the other hand.... a little worried because the only person she knows in her class is her old "BF" from 2nd grade that caused her 45 days in timeout - EEEKKKKK!!!!!

Waiting Out "FAY"

What am I doing? Didn't I say I don't have time to blog? Didn't I say I love facebook too much to have a fling with another social network? What is wrong with me? FAY - that's whats wrong....

Here I sit in the social room of Moontide condos in New Smyrna Beach, FL, annoyed that I cannot go get the much needed sunburn that I so desire! Yes, we are caught in Tropical Storm Fay, who can't decide if she is coming or going so she's sitting....sitting still - doing nothing!

We got here on Saturday evening and had a couple of days of great weather - nice sun tans and lots of boogie boarding. Monday afternoon I took the stroll of a lifetime (by myself) for about an hour on the shoreline, listening to my MP3 player! Ah the relaxation, the joy and bliss of much needed R & R. I had decided that beach bumming was the life for me.....then BANG - Fay hit....didn't she know I needed her to go somewhere else! Obviously not, cause she's hanging around and won't leave! So on with the bloggging! Haven't a clue what I'm doing but looks like I've all the time in the world - CURSE YOU - FAY!!!!
