Apple Upgrade


Today my 2g 8gig iphone finally gave out, so I was on a CL hunt to find the perfect iphone. In the meantime, I had to dig out my still awesomely cool pink Razor phone to hold me over until I got a replacement. Wow!! Going back to that after having an iphone makes me feel like I was handling a dinosaur phone. I remember when R and I thought that the Razors were the coolest, most high-tech phone around. Crazy how a couple years change your need for apps and email at your fingertips.

Since we have T-mobile, we had to do a lot of searching for an unlocked one. And since the new iphone 4 was coming out, we thought that this would be easy. Well, turns out that the new iphone 4s' are having some issues, so most people are returning them and sticking with their 3Gs phones. That sucked for us, cause I was in need of one ASAP. After a bunch of hours searching and several emails exchanged to numerous scammers, I finally found one I wanted.

White 3GS 16 gig unlocked and in immaculate condition.

I definitely lucked out! I can already see and feel the difference. I can't believe that someone would want to upgrade to something better than this. This phone is AMAZING!! I know I am excited about an older model, but it is perfect for me:)

Summer Time





I'm sorry I've been MIA for a while. We have been pretty crazy here now that school is out. T-ball, tennis lessons and school all ended around the same time, so that means I am pretty much pulling my hair out with bored kids. The weather has been in the 90's so not so much fun to be outside for long. We have been doing the pool a lot lately - mostly due to Ryan being gone in NYC.

I always feel weird to blog. I feel like I can't be myself, thinking I might just post lots of pics of the boys and maybe about my fashion,makeup finds and buys.

Anyway, I got a new camera for my birthday, so I have been taking a lot more pics lately. Any advice on taking better pics, please let me know. I need all the help I can get:)

Mardi Gras Here I Come!!

Only 2 more days till my trip to NOLA for some Mardi Gras fun! Did I mention that I am going all by myself? Yeah, no kids on spouse to answer to. That could be good or a very bad thing:) All I can say is that the Saints just won the Superbowl, so it's gonna be crazy!


Top things I need to do in NOLA:

-Eat a Po boy (At least twice)
-Visit the French Market
- Hunt down the perfect Fleur De Lis beads
-Eat 30 lbs of crawfish (you think I'm joking)
- Go to Cafe Du Monde and eat beignets and drink cafe au lait
- Drive by our old house in Uptown

I know there is a schoad more things I plan on doing but these are the ones that come to mind at the moment. I will be sharing pictures when I get back:)

Cheers!

It's all Christmas-ish




Happy New Year! Just a few days late:) I hope ya'll had a wonderful time and ate a ton of food. I know I did.

Our Christmas was also wonderful, even though it was just us this year. Yep, first year all by ourselves. We even did Thanksgiving alone. I know so sad. Since we stayed in Utah for 3 weeks last Christmas, we decided it would be smart to stay low key this year. Next year I think we will travel to see family, so maybe it will be an every other year kinda thing. That is definitely one of the downsides to living on the complete other side of the country; you have to travel FAR to see anyone.

Anyway, I have been busy trying to get everyone back on schedule and it is not as easy as I thought. Having a child in school now kinda sucks. Trying to get him to bed earlier than 11pm is like pulling a veneer off. Pain in da a**!

So this year I have made some goals that I want to accomplish in 2010. I just have them in my head, not on paper yet. Need to do that soon. One of them is to not procrastinate, so you can see that I am struggling with that one already. What are your goals for 2010?

I'm gonna leave you with a quote of the day: Give People more than they expect and do it cheerfully.
