About Us

My photo
I have recently decided that we are superstars. I work full time as an ABA Consultant and am a full time student working toward my psych degree. I have the most amazing man in my life - Rob is every dream come true that I have had. He works hard, plays hard, and we are making our dreams come true one day at a time. We are the proud parents of 6 cats and 2 dogs. Ya. It is a circus but I love every minute of it!

Photo A Day 5.7.2011 - Practice Makes Perfect!


Had some fun with my hair today and thought I would share! My stylist taught me how to curl my hair so the curl would last and I thought since I had nothing to do today I would practice! Now I am all dressed up with no where to go..... oh well. At least I have had a little practice!!

MMMMMmmmmmm...... so tonight's dinner was chicken and sausage in a crock pot. There are onions, carrots and potatoes under the chicken you just cant see it too clearly. When it was done I put shredded cheese on the top and it was delicious!!!

So I thought this was a really cute art project. It could have used more filling to fluff it up, but still a cute idea. My client made this at speech and placed shapes and colors into a zip lock sandwich bag after he labeled them. Then he got to all glitter and a pipe cleaner made the wings and the antennae! how cute right??

Working with one of my kiddos today on being ok with block towers falling after his mom told me he had some major tantrums over the weekend from block towers falling. Usually I have to "accidently" knock them down and then work through the behavior before we start again.... But this guy was insistent on putting bridges on top of squares or triangles which made the towers fall all on their own. Kinda amusing. Oh, and he pulled through just fine and no longer has behaviors when towers fall. Instead he shouts OH NO!!! WHAT HAPPENED??? then he rebuilds. Success!

YAY!!! I know I am a nerd, but I LOVE stars and I LOVE my new laptop, so I put them together!! And now it is a great merger!! w00t!!!

Photo A Day 5.2.2011 - Daisies!!


Look at the perfect present that my honey gave me!!! Daisies are my FAVORITE!!!!! And since I really want to start a little flower garden I can put this in it to start it off! YAY!!! (if I don't kill it first.... I have a really hard time keeping things alive....so we will see.)  But I still LOVE it so much!!

Photo A Day 5.1.2011 - Shed Be Gone!!




So I attempted to tear down this shed solo this morning when Rob and Jesse were at work. I have learned that a 5'2" girl that hasn't been lifting weights is not able to lift a 3 foot sledge hammer over her head to know down a shed 7 feet tall..... so I cleaned out the inside and waited for the men folk to come home to help. Rob and Jesse had most of it down by 3 and then some other guys from Rob's work came over and helped tear down the rest in about 2 hours. We paid them all with beer and BBQ! It was very yummy and nice to have the shed taken care of so that some day we could finish the fence!
