Short & Sweet :)

Hola amigos! Just wanted to say a quick hello. I wish i could post a longer entry. However i really should be in bed right now, lol. I have to be up early in the am. Yep tomorrow is our family trip to Wisconsin. Wow, we cant believe its here already. We have had this trip planned for 2 or more months lol. Anyhow, the flight leaves after 12:30 pm i believe. But we have to be up and ready to go by 10 am. I will be sure to take lots of pics & movies. I cant wait ;) I plan to do some video blogging, showing you maybe our trip on a daily basis. We will be visiting alot of hubbys family. Going to a wedding, maybe the zoo, staying at hubbys gparents out in the woods for a night. Lots of things to do. I hope it will be fun anyway, lol. Anyhow all is well otherwise. We just have been busy, enjoying our summer. We been hanging with the family alot, visiting friends. Going swimming in the pool. Our 4th of July was great too. We didnt have plans at first. Ended up being invited last minute to a party at Jays parents friends home. It was fun, good food & got to see fireworks out on the boat. Great times :) We had a dilemna this week though, lol. The ac in our place went out again, *sigh* Many of you already know this who follow me on Myspace or FB, lol. Anyhow it was worse this time. We needed a new unit. So that took a couple of days because our landlord had to come up with the money. It wasnt cheap lol.

Anyhow long story short, it all gotten take care of. Thank God we got to stay at my inlaws for that time. Our place was extremely warm. Not a good time to not have ac, lol. Fl is so hot lmao. Lets see what else, oh hubby got his every few months at work, review. He did really well and... got a raise! 25 cents is the norm. Of course we wish it was more. However its better then nothing and we are so grateful. It will make a difference. Im so happy & proud of hubby. Danielle is doing great. Excited about the trip but very nervous being on a plane. I am too, lol. Its been a few yrs. But I know it will be ok though. I guess thats it for now. I wish i could say more. I have to get some zzzs, lol. I wanted you all to know in case you wonder in a few days, "wheres Leslie around here?" lol. I will catch up with you all when i get back or somehow if i can while over there. I will of course update though on Myspace & FB. Take care. See you all when we get back on the 20th!
Hugs & love, Leslie

Wow time flys when you're...

Having fun or just been busy & not in a blogging kind of mood, lol. Hi all :) Wow its been i think a few weeks since my last entry dang, lol. Time to play catch up. Hope all of you are doing well. We are doing good here, enjoying the summer. We've been busy doing plenty of summer activities, family visits and chillin with friends too. I will share whats going on with some pics & a few words...


** Pic below from last week. Jay was off from work, I believe it was Thurs & Friday. So we decided to have our niece & nephew over for the night. As always we have a great time when the kids are over. Danielle really loves playing with her cousins. Anyhow my niece & nephew got free bowling passes from the bowling alley nearby for having good grades. Did we take advantage of that lol. So we took the kids bowling. Everyone played but me, lol. Im not into bowling ok, i just stink at it, lol. Plus i enjoy watching & taking pics :) It was a fun time. Here is Danielle with her cousin Chris. Him helping her get the ball down the lane.

My niece took this pic of Danielle & I ;) (excuse my makeup free self yuck, lol)

All the kids. My niece & nephew were so great, such good big cousins. They were helping Danielle with her bowling aww. Danielle did great with their help :)

Angie, my niece took a pic of hubby & I. I like this one even though it came out dark.

Danielle & Angie. Too cute ;)

Aww I love this one too Chris & Danielle :)

Danielle styling in her bowling shoes, lol ;)

Last but not least the cutey herself. I love how this pic turned out. Such a beautiful smile & beautiful girl we have ;) The game was a close one. Jason usually wins. But i guess with him being tired was in the kids favor haa, lol. My nephew won he did great. I think Danielle was 2nd. All in all a fun time ;) Then after we braved taking all the kids out for pizza & ice cream. The kids loved the pizza place we took them too. Then to Mcds for ice cream yum. After we went home, then played some board games, watched tv and off to bed we went. It was a great time ;)

This was from this Monday afternoon I think. Hubby had the day off agian. So we decided to go to the pool here where we live. You can see theres a smaller pool there. Thats the kiddie pool which Danielle loves. The bigger pools is the main pool. The water was great that day really warm & refreshing. Thats not even half of the pool in the pic. Its huge. I couldnt get a good shot of the whole pool. We had a great time swimming and enjoying the sunny but cloudy day.

Danielle lounging, aww to cute. I took this pic of her smiling though. But somehow the stupid cam didnt catch the smile. Ugh i dont like my cam phone, lol

So because of that, I had to get another pic of her smiling when we got home, lol. Heres her in her cute new bathing suit with dressup hat & Tinkerbell purse, lol

Now, lol for the Twihard fans out there like me, hee, lol. Enjoy this, its what i call my Twilight wall. Complete of 3 beautiful posters from the movie. I just bought the left one of the dvd cover of Twilight & the one at the end of New moon. I love this wall. I will add to it somehow. I hope with the movie posters of Eclipse & Breaking Dawn. Obsessed? Yes I am & proud of it, lol.

There you have it a update with pics & some words. I hope you enjoyed the recent pics. As i said things are going pretty good. Im sorry i havent been by in awhile. I just have been so busy with trying to keep Danielle busy & haivng fun. Plus i just havent been in the blogging mood & there hasnt been that much to share. We did have a nice Fathers day last Sunday. I hope all of you out there did too. Jay had to work though :( But he worked till 4 pm which wasnt bad i guess. After he got done with work, we headed to my moms for dinner, then chill with them after. Before we headed to my Moms though, a small prob happened. Our ac went out. Yeah great timing right. Hot temps are everywhere this summer, where we live real bad. We had lots of heat advisorys in Florida last week. Not good timing for the ac to be out, uggh. So needless to say, Jay had to call his Mom to see if we could spend the night at her place.We knew we couldnt sleep in that heat. The houses temp went past 80 by the time we went to my Moms for dinner. Of coruse Jays mom understood and was cool of us spending the night there. Thank God we had that option. We had a ncie dinner & time at my Moms. Then after went home, packed up our things real quick & went to my inlaws for the night. Thank God on Monday, the ac company came by & were able to get the ac fixed. We werent sure if they could that soon. So all is good now.

This week hasnt been too eventful just basically hanging at home, taking D to the pool and hopefully this weekend we will visit my Mom agian. Jay has Sunday off. We want to see the new Transformers 2 movie bad, lol. Hoepfully we may be able to, dont know yet. Oh and its officially over a week now till our trip to Wisconsin. Yep i cant believe it. It will be here before we know it. We will leave Sat July 10th & come back the 20th. I know, i seemed excited about it when I 1st mentioned it. Honestly im not really. I am only going to make Jason happy. I know that may sound worng. I want to say im very grateful his family is making this trip happen for us. We are thankful. But for those who know me really well & my history with Jays family you will understand. I will try to explain more another time. I care about them cause its his family & i respect them. Thats about it. I just feel even over 8 yrs later of being with my hubby. I feel very uncomfy aorund these ppl. I just have always gotten the vibe there nice to me cause Jay is married to me thats it. Thats as far as it goes. I always feel misunderstood by them & just like an outsider. Like I said theres more to explain. I want Jay & Danielle happy. I know he wants to see his family & more see WI, he hasnt been there in yrs. I know its good for D too to see family she rarely sees. I pray this trip goes well, lol. That i will have soem fun, lol. We do have some good plans, going to the zoo, a Italian festival. So thats things to look fwd to. I will be sure to take pics and i hope movies too.

Well i guess thats it for now, i blabbed enough, lol. Hope you all have a good weekend. Oh & a big thanks to Steph from Dirt & Lace blog for making me a blog button. Check it out on my sidebar and feel free to spread the word about my blog ;)
ttys, Love to you all, Leslie

The week & weekend in pictures :)

Hola amigos! I hope everyone had a good week last week & weekend ;) Our week & weekend were great :) I thought i would share with you highlights of our week last week & weekend, in pics. Hope you all enjoy.

** This is a picture of Danielle & her bff Maddie on the last day of school last Tuesday. Danielle had a half day on the last day of school. She had an awesome day. Her class spent the day watching movies, reading, playing games, enjoying time together, saying their good byes. They made cards for the teacher & each other. They were lots of hugs shared too. Anyhow a nice surprise happened when Jay & I picked up D after school. We saw her best friend Maddies Mom & Maddie there. I think i mentioned awhile back that Maddie's family moved a couple of months ago or more. Because of that, Maddie changed schools. It really bummed D & Maddie. So Maddie came by to visit the class. It was great :) Oh and also, Danielle had a really great report card! She improved so much & also got a reading award. We are so proud :)


**Jay & I decided on Tues since it was the last day of school to have a night of fun. I asked my brother to see if his kids could spend the night with us. of course my brother agreed. It was perfect that day too since Jay had the day off. My brother brought the kids by in the afternoon. We went swimming for awhile at the pool here where we live. Then we all got ready to go out to dinner. We went to eat at Perkins. Its a really nice family place to eat. Anyhow, they just happened to have a kids eat free night & kids night. The kids each got a balloon, to decorate their own cookies & face painting. *Above is my niece & nephew at the restaurant.


Aww a very sweet brother & sister moment. Not many of those haa, jk, lol

Miss Danielle getting her face painted :)


The result a rainbow caterpillar, lol :)


My niece Angelina & Danielles faces


Now its my nephew Chris's turn


The result a very cool spider, sweet! We really had a blast that night. When we got home from dinner, we played some video games, board games, & chatted. Then the next day hubby had to work early. I was on my own with the kiddos, lol. It went well we just hung out until my brother got the kids later that afternoon. A really fun couple of days. Danielle loved of course having her cousins over for the night & day next day.


A picture of the view from out back of Jays Mom & stepdads home. Nice view huh? The day though was cloudy, it rained a bit but we enjoyed the pool anyway, lol. My inlaws have been out of state since last Thurs. So we asked them while they were on their trip if we can come by, use the pool, maybe do some laundry too, lol. They of course agreed which was great of them. It was nice to have the pool to ourselves. Even though we have pool where we live, lol. Its better though to not have to share the pool, lol.

Danielle enjoying the water :)

I thought i would take a pic of the pretty clouds :)

another view from out back of my inlaws home

Miss Danielle striking a pose.

As you can see, we had a awesome week last week & weekend ;) Now that its summer things are going to be more busy around here with lots to do, lol. So i may not be around as much. Honestly i could use the break anyway, lol. I dont blog often anyway. Still though, just thought id give you all a heads up if you dont see me as often. I will try to post though at least once in a while with pics & updates. Speaking of, If you havent had a chance please check out the last entry, its a audio one. There are more updates.

Well i guess thats it really :) Not much else to tell. Its going to be another busy but fun filled week. Tomorrow Danielle & i are going to hang out with a good friend of mine & her daughter. We havent seem them much in months. It will be nice for sure to catch up & have the girls play too. Then i am pretty sure sometime this week we will be getting together with my mom, brother & the kids to do something cool. I may have the kids spend the night here again too. Its always fun when there here. My Mom may watch D on Thurs so Jay & i can have a date night. Jay & i are looking fwd to that. Well take care all. Hope to hear from you all soon. Have a good week! xo

Anyhow real quick, lol. Just wanted to update you all on whats been going on. Last weekend was great. I think i mentioned in my last blog entry my Aunt was having a big family get together at her house. It was a blast as always. We saw my Uncle, Aunt & my cousins that we dont see often cause they live a few hrs away from the rest of the fam. So it was great to see them and catch up. Plus being in the pool, the weather was gorgeous that day, the food great too. Danielle had an awesome time playing with all her cousins. Poor hubby though :( He was sitll sick from that nasty cold he had, he was miserable. So we left a bit early. I felt so bad for him. I kept asking him if he wanted to go home. Hes like "no hunny i will be fine i want to be there, i want you & Danielle to visit with your fam." What a trooper lol. I didnt get too many pics but the ones i did get i will post next time. Then last Sunday on Moms day was a nice day. Jay had to work that am. Poor guy still pretty damn sick, lol. I enjoyed the am and early afternoon with Danielle. She spoiled me with lots of hugs & kisses and we just enjoyed time together. Then when hubby got home from work, we all got ready to go to his Moms, to give her her Mothers day card & to visit. We had a nice time, talking out on their lanai. Then after we headed to My Moms to have dinner and to of course celebrate the rest of Moms day with my Mom, brother & my niece & nephew. All in all it as a really nice Mothers day.

As for this week, geez it went by quick, lol. Wednesday, we went to Jays Mom's for dinner and to have an afternoon in the pool. Oh the water was great. Jay, D & I had a blast playing in the pool. Then my mil & Jays stepdad made us a yummy dinner. We talked, hung out and that was it for that night. Jasons feeling better now too from his cold thank god. He was really sick i think it was more of a cold/flu deal it wasnt good for sure ;( I am grateful D didnt get it. She had the sniffles herself this week but it wasnt worse then that. Friday was a fun day. Jay & I decided to go to Danielles school to have lunch with her. I admit we havent done that much this school yr. We feel bad, lol. So we decided to do so. When we got there we waited for Danielle and her class to get to the cafeteria. Her teacher says hi to us and ask us, "Are you all going to brave sitting in the lunchroom?" Yeah Jay & I know from having lunch with D before on the past its crazy to sit in there, the kids are loud, lol. There was no other place to eat but at the picnic areas outside. Im sorry it was too damn hot for that lmao. So yeah Jay & I braved the lunchroom, hee, lol. It was crazy but it was great to see D interact with her friends, to meet her classmates. I met most of them but the teacher has gotten new students too. Danielle really loved having us there. Then after Jay & i just took her out of school early. She has lunch really late after 1 pm. So by the time we were done it was near 2. So we headed home real quick so hubby could get ready for work at 3 pm. Then he dropped off D & I to My moms to hang & have dinner that night. It was a fun night as always hanging with my Mom, brother and the kiddos. Yesterday Jay had the day off, yeah. We werent sure what to do, lol with limited money. But then we decided where else to go but the mall, lol. So went went to one of our fav malls that about 20 min away. Walked around for while. Then went and had dinner at Ruby Tuesdays. I love the salad bar there, yum yum. Then after headed to the Super Target nearby. We dont have one in the city where we live. So i wanted to go by there & get some food & other stuff. That was our weekend so far.

The only thing that made it not so good, was this damn rain. Yeah we are finally getting the rain now, lmao. However we do need it here in Fl. I just dont like the down pour and lighting ugh, lol. Thats whats been new here pretty much. Oh yeah i finally got a chance to talk to Ds math teacher on Friday. She is such a nice lady. She was telling me how much she loves having D in her class and how she is such a sweet girl. Also That she tries so hard. It was just so good to hear! We love getting compliments about D. Well it turns out she will get a satisfactory in grade thank god, which means she will pass Math. Still however we need to work with her this summer a lot, lol. We are worried she still may be a bit behind the other kids in 2nd grade. The math teacher explained to me she is at 2nd grade level with her math. However some of the other kids have learned things that D still hasnt yet. Its a lot to explain, lol. But agian we are just so proud of her for trying best she can and doing great. Thanks for reading all of this all, lol. Hope you all have a good week ahead! I will be back soon. I have lots of stuff planned for future entries, hee ;) So stay tuned, lol
**Love to you all

**Update: As i said in the beginning not too much going on. This week went by quick as always, lol. Tues, we went to mils for dinner agian, lol. I admit, besides it being great to visit with them. It saves us money and me having to cook, haa, lol. We had a nice time though, we all watched the fifth Harry Potter movie after dinner. Hey got to refresh for the new one im excited to see the 6th movie, lol. This Memorial Day weekend i dont know whats going on, lol. Its always up in the air with us. hubby has to work Memorial Day anyway. Yeah kind of stinks but also were kind of happy he gets double in pay for that day so that helps, lol.

We usually dont have any plans that day anyway. Saturday though, D may spend the day with Jays mom & stepdad or my Mom. Jay and i need a date night hee, lol. We are thinking of lunch or dinner then seeing the new Star Trek movie. I hear its awesome. I cant wait to see it. Thats our plans so far as of this weekend. Maybe I will visit with my Mom on Sunday that would be cool too. Oh, Danielle is having her school play in her classroom next Thurs. Im so excited. Its going to be so cute. I will be sure to take some pics. Well I blabbed enough, lol. Have a good rest of day all. I will be by your blogs soon, xo

Some pics to share & a mini update

Hi everyone ;) Happy Friday, yeah! I know im glad its the weekend, lol. I hope all of you are well. We are doing pretty good here I will fill you all more in a sec here. But first I wanted to share some pics i just took. There from my cam phone so not the best quality I apologize. lol. However i just had to share. Hope you all enjoy ;)

Here's a really cute pic i took the other night. Danielle was really sick on Wed. I will explain more at the end here. Anyhow i thought it was too cute. Her sleeping peacefully after a rough day.


Danielle made me two beautiful homemade Mothers Day cards at school today. Here is the one she made for me in art class!


Too sweet :)


This card is my fav. I cried reading it, i sure did, lol






This is the back of the card. This below here is a song and she sang it to me which for sure got me crying, lol


I will use these for sure, lol..


Also, a late bday present came for me today, lol. My Mom ordered a sort of, surprise for me from one of my fav stores websites, Torrid.com. There an awesome plus size clothing store! I dont get to shop in the stores itself much though. The ones here are pretty far. One closest to me is about 20 min, the other a little longer away. Once in a blue moon though i go there, lol. Anyhow awhile back, I was going and on to my Mom how much i wanted of these...






Are you really surprised my friends come on? lol. Of course i really wanted a Twilight shirt! Not just any, a Edward & Bellashirt ! I have been wanting this shirt forever, lmao. I know i am obsessed and proud of it, lmao. Thanks soo much Mom you rock, ty, ty!

Hope you enjoyed the pics all. Anyhow not too much new to report. I gaave pretty detailed updates in my last entry, which is an audio one. I hope you all got a chance to hear it. I didnt get many comments, *sniffs* lol. But i have seen a lot have heard it so hopefully you all did ;) This week went pretty good. Tuesday we went to Jays mom & stepdads for Cinco de Mayo! They made fajitas, had chips & salsa, mexi rice. It was great food & times. We had a nice time there. Danielle had a great time as always too, enjoying time with her gparents. The rest of the week pretty much dragged, lol. Wednesday, poor Danielle came home from school being really sick. I know when she is really sick cause she just lays down, is quiet and not up to her really happy, funny, singing self, lol. My mom in law got her from school that day, took her to the library, then home. Danielle picked some good books. She got a Nancy Drew one thats got to be 3rd, 4th grade reading level. She is done with it already. We are just so proud of how much she loves to read. Its amazing and so great.

Anyhow it broke my heart though seeing her all sick. We think though she got dehydrated from PE and it was also just the sickies. These schools here in FL have these kids run in this heat. I dont think they let them get enough water to drink. Its no wonder they get sick. Dont get me wrong. I love that she has PE and plays outside and does exercising. Im just concerned with as hot as its been. So i remind D to drink as much water as she can and try to cool off. Good thing though school is done in 3 weeks. I cant believe it, lol. So yeah Danielle had a slight fever, sore throat, tummy not feeling good as she said. So i gave her meds, lots of water and crackers. She rested pretty much all that night. Then on Thurs i had her stay home to be on the safe side. Now today she is much better. She had a great day at school today too! Im glad cause lately she doesnt seem too. :( Lets see what else, lol. Hubby is doing great well work wise anyway. The usual crazy work schedules but things are going good for him at work. D misses him a lot cause of his work schedule its tough. But we get thru it. He has also been fighting a head cold for days now ;( My poor hunny. Tomorrow my Aunt is having a cookout at her house. About all of my moms side of the family will be there. A reunion! Im excited i cant wait to see all my Aunts, Uncles, cousins, it will be great. Plus yummy food, swimming, what more can you ask for? lol. I will try to take some pics & movies.

As for Mothers Day, I am pretty sure i will be spending it with my Mom. We will have a nice mom, daughter & granddaughter day. Jay will be working during the day though which is good better then night shift. Nothing too special planned. But being together is all I can ask for. In case i dont get back here before then to all my Mom friends out there, have a very Happy Mothers day! Pat yourselves on the back, lol. Being a Mom can be really sometimes tough & stressful, lol. However, it can also be rewarding, giving, loving & special. I cant thank God enough everyday that I have this precious angel in my life. I love Danielle with everything I am. Im so proud to be her Mommy. Its such a precious gift i never take for granted! Happy Mothers day to all my friends who are Moms! Take care all. See you all next time!
Love you all, Leslie
