I AM the queen!

Does the cat need a bath?

2009-11-30T20:01:00.000-08:00

Amelia thought so. She cornered the cat and took a mug with water in it, with a toothbrush, and gave the kitty a 'bath'. It was very funny, actually.

The Deal..

2009-09-15T09:43:00.000-07:00

So here is the deal...I have lived in this house now for 18 months, I CAN NOT get organized! Cleaning up, putting stuff away, fine, but real down to the nitty gritty of organization, can't do it. No matter what I do, no matter what I try, especially with the kids, I can NOT get organized. Any suggestions?

Rigatoni

2009-08-12T23:28:00.000-07:00

I made Rigatoni for dinner tonight. The simple act of making Rigatoni really makes me miss my Grandpa. He always made Rigatoni. If my memory serves me correct, he made it pretty much every time we visited him or when he came to our house. He canned (well in a jar) his own sauce and it was good. I don't think my canned Hunt's sauce is as good as his was, but it just made me remember him and reflect on him. Oddly enough, the anniversary of his death was just a few days ago. I love you Grandpa and always will miss you!

We caved...

2009-08-08T09:04:00.000-07:00

and bought the WII..

Update on Wheel among other things.

2009-08-01T18:33:00.000-07:00

We didn't make it..for the inquiring minds. However we did get to go to 2 tapings..that was fun. No camera's or phones allowed, therefore I have no pictures to share. That's about all for the update on Wheel..

Alexis just recently got contacts. That seems to be the biggest news around. If I were a good mom I would chronicle this event with pictures of her taking them out and putting them in. I have no batteries for my camera..and my sister need not comment!! So, when I remember to get batteries, I'll take pictures.

That's about all on the homefront at this time. NOthing to big and exciting. Just getting ready for school to start in 23 DAYS!!!!! I could not be MORE excited!!

I think..

2009-06-23T15:00:00.001-07:00

I am crazy. Man, this whole Wheel thing has me so nervous. Matt keeps telling me to calm down..Every time I think about getting a call I invision how excited I'll be and I hope whom ever calls from Wheel has some good strong ear drums. However, on the flip side, I have nervous belly and I just keep thinking I can't have butterflies and knotted up tummy till mid-July..that might just kill me. Man, this waiting thing is making me nuts in the head, and probably giving me some ulcers. I just had to release it somewhere..so onward with waiting..hope we get the call..I'll let you know either way.

Follow up on Wheel of Fortune!

2009-06-17T22:41:00.000-07:00

Well, as luck would have it we made it through the entire audition without getting cut..so far. We now have to wait to see if we are lucky enough to receive 'that' phone call!! Matt and I did our best and whatever is meant to happen will! We are extremely excited about the chance to appear on Wheel and hope it comes! Being on Wheel has been a LIFELONG dream and goal of mine. I first tried out in LA when I was 12 for 'Teen Week'. I froze during the written and did not move on. I tried out again here in Vegas more that a decade ago, got through the first portion and got cut. Then, I went to the 'Wheelmobile' audition here in Vegas in April, got called up, but then was chosen to audition for 'Sweethearts Week' instead. I don't know, I'd rather play with Matt anyways. We do good as a team and he is fast on his feet! Hopefully, they see it that way too. I can't say enough nice things about the 'Wheel of Fortune' staff that was here today. They were all very nice and kind to us, except Bankrupting us for getting too MANY letters and chances. I think after about calling out 4 correct letters they would Bankrupt us so others had a chance to shine. Wish us luck and hopefully we'll tape with 'Wheel' in July!! I'll keep you all posted.

WHEEL OF FORTUNE!

2009-06-16T21:44:00.000-07:00

Wish Matt and I well...we are off for an audition for Wheel of Fortune "Sweethearts Week" tomorrow. We are both excited and nervous! Wish us luck and we'll let you know if we even make through the timed test..that will be our biggest hurdle.

Just the creme mom!

2009-06-07T15:19:00.000-07:00

Apparantly Amelia thinks that the only way to eat an oreo is to take the top off, throw that away, eat the creme, and throw the other part away...

On to the Fourth Grade...I have a FOURTH GRADER!!

2009-06-07T15:14:00.000-07:00

Eeekk...This means we have 2 more school years of Elementry..not so sure how I feel about Middle school. It gives me heartburn and palpations just thinking about it. I REMEMBER Jr. High, it sucked, every moment of it! I took a couple pictures of Alexis accepting her awards for the third grade year. Once again, the lighting was awful!

Alexis and Ms. Alger. We will miss her, she was fabulous. We were lucky to have wonderful teachers this year!

Congratulations Rielly!!

2009-06-07T15:04:00.000-07:00

Rielly "graduated" from Kindergarten and we are very proud of him. We are ALL excited for him to eat lunch at school and go all day in August. Here are some pictures of him at their celebration. Sorry the pictures are dark...the lighting was horrible.

They asked all the kids what they wanted to be when they grow up. This is Rielly telling the audience he would like to be a clown. I am not kidding...it was funny.

This is Ms. B and Rielly. She has been the greatest! We were very lucky and blessed to be able to have her as Rielly's teacher.

Amelia--

2009-05-22T11:42:00.000-07:00

So, lately Amelia has a new word. It is "shhhh", she puts her finger over her mouth even. It is not even that she says the word, the problem is she only says it when I tell her "no". We'll roleplay. ME: Amelia stop throwing your toy. AMELIA:
'shhhhh'. ME: Amelia don't tell me to "shhh". AMELIA: 'Shh'. The "shhh" gets shorter the more she tries to get her point across. What is it with toddlers? Thanks for tuning in! :)

So, I am a SLACKER...

2009-03-31T20:26:00.000-07:00

Ok, see mom, I posted!! Nothing real exciting here. We have been busy busy little bees. We repainted the kitchen and now I need to take those new batteries I bought and take a picture with my camera. (No need for comment Paula!) We are getting ready to remove carpet in the "living room", you know the little patch of carpet downstairs and put hardwood in. We are VERY excited for that. So, as soon as I get all that done I will take some pictures and post them. I guess I should finish our Dland trip, huh? I will after the fair. I will have fair pictures to post as well. I have 3 cakes to make this weekend, so I'll be back after Easter/fair. Wish me luck I am entering a cake in the fair..

Disneyland--Part 1

2009-02-03T09:32:00.000-08:00

DISNEYLAND--PART 1

We took the kids and went to Disneyland for 3 days and had a great time. We were all fairly exhausted by the time we got home, but built tons of great memories. I hope the kids will always remember their first time at Disneyland. Amelia however, I don't think she will remember any of it. That will be interesting to find out in later years. I had this whole senerio played out in my head, that the kids would arrive on the grounds of Disneyland and say "WOW, COOL". You know all the "normal" reactions. We got, "ok".

So we started by going into Disneyland and first thing saw Mickey Mouse. The kids were so excited to have Mickey sign their autograph books. Amelia was not impressed, she freaked out. I thought I got a picture of Amelia freakin' out but I din't I guess. Sorry I could not share that with you, it was funny.

Then we met Minnie. Alexis was so, so excited to meet her and see her house. Amelia surprisingly like Minnie after our experience with Mickey.

We also ran into Goofy and Pluto. Goofy was, well, GOOFY! Had all of us laughing. THe kids approached him and wanted him to sign their books and he just started leisurely walking away. The kids just kind of looked at us with that "what is he doing" look and I said follow him, he's being "GOOFY"...Hahahahaha! I crack myself up. Then they said "oh", and followed him and Goofy was laughing and it was all good and fun.

Here are other pictures of Tigger and Pooh. We had fun with them. Tigger was a hoot and he made us laugh and laugh. Must of been having a good day, cause he was very funny.

This was a very cool ride. Buzz Lightyear ride was was fun. The ride is interactive, so you go through basically playing a big video game. You shoot out of these laser guns and shoot at the "enemies" targets and get points. As you walk out it tells you what rank you got based off your points range. Very fun ride and the kids loved it. I think it was probably one of their favorites.

Lex on Lightyear..

Rielly on Lightyear...

Matt, Lex, and Amelia on Lightyear...

I will post more later...Part 2 and maybe 3 coming shortly..

My Last Post

2009-01-14T15:20:00.000-08:00

Apparantly I was misinformed and tried to email all of you based on the email Isent previous. It's all false. This does not change my mind on any abortion anything or my feelings on Obama. It doesn't change anything I previously wrote. However, I am ticked that I got sent misinformation. Thanks and sorry.

Lynne Lougy

2008-12-24T04:07:00.000-08:00

Our reason for going to Utah was not a fun one. Matt's mom was in a coma and passed away Friday, December 19. Here is her obituary..Thanks to all who offered support for Matt, it is not a fun or easy experience losing a parent.

Lynne Bates Curtis Lougy

Lynne was born on Oct. 5, 1946, to Elman Bates Curtis and Madelyn Huffman Curtis. Lynne returned home to her Heavenly Father on Dec. 19, 2008. Being a lifelong member of the LDS Church, Lynne married her loving husband, Dennis Leroy Lougy on June 25, 1965, in the Salt Lake Temple.

Lynne is a beloved daughter of our Heavenly Father who has given her life in charity and service to others. She is mother, sister, friend, missionary, musician, a poet, a tender heart and a warm smile. Lynne enjoyed being a grandmother to all the children, in and out of her family. She led music and told stories as sister friendly in primary. Of all the titles, sweetheart, sweetie pie, honey and dear, the dearest is loving wife.

Lynne is survived by her husband Dennis and her six children; Karen, Bryan (Nancy Cragun), Sherri (Sifa Mahe), Deanna, Matthew (Wendi Draude), April May. She is also survived by her eight younger brothers and sisters. Her joy was complete with 13 grandchildren.

We love you our special angel, sister friendly, sweetheart, mom, sister and grandma, you are loved tremendously and will be missed.

Funeral services will be held on Dec. 23, at 1 p.m. at the LDS Tooele 4th ward, on the corner of 200 South and 200 West. A viewing will be held prior to services at 11 a.m.

In lieu of flowers a donation can be given at Zions Bank in Tooele in Lynne B. Lougy’s name.

The Train

2008-12-24T03:54:00.000-08:00

While in Utah, we decided it would be fun to take the kids to see the lights on Temple Square. Well, Northern Utah has this fabulous train that takes you from Nancy's area to SLC. We rode the train (Rielly was in heaven). We had lots of fun, unfortunately my camera died and Nancy's card rejected all the pictures we took at Temple Square. The train ride is all I have.

Holly, Amelia, Aunt Nancy, and Rielly. Freezing while waiting. It was COLD!

Pig tails for Amelia

2008-12-24T03:50:00.000-08:00

We were all in SHOCK and amazement that Amelia actually let someone put her hair up. Nancy was able to do her hair. I won't lie and say it lasted all day, but it did last a good couple hours. We got pictures for proof.

The kids visit with Santa

2008-12-24T03:37:00.000-08:00

While in Utah we went and visted with Santa. Aunt Nancy, her nephew Patrick, Alexis, Rielly, and Amelia. I think the kids thought this Santa was a bit 'interesting'. They had fun though.
Rielly AKA 'Ralphie'-As Santa put it.

Alexis and Santa

Amelia not liking Santa, AT ALL!

Rielly, AKA 'Ralphie' showing us the coloring book from Santa.

Patrick and Rielly completely crashed out on the ride home.

Amelia covering her face because she hates stormy weather..poor kid was traumatized from the summer storm we drove through.

More snow!

2008-12-24T03:32:00.000-08:00

The other snow was Wednesday, Dec 17. This one shut down the city. Mainly because there are not snowplows here and it snowed enough to cancel school. This is the only good picture I got. In the picture is my tree in my front yard, it is not real happy to be cold and covered in snow. The white dots is snow, not a bad camera.

2008-12-24T03:24:00.000-08:00

Here are some pictures of the snow..this is from the first snow Monday, Dec 15.
THe snow was just starting here:

This is all we got-enough for Rielly to play in.

Rielly making a snowball.

Rielly looking at the snow in awe and amazement!

I PASSED STATS!!!

2008-12-23T10:35:00.000-08:00

This one was a nail bitter! Thanks for tuning in.

LET IT.....WHAT??

2008-12-15T09:55:00.000-08:00

Yep, that's right, it's snowing!! Excitment for the kids, not so much for us that have to face the Las Vegas/California drivers. Heaven help us today!! It is beautiful and I don't miss it. However, it is a really nice change from the norm. But I will be happy for the sun again tomorrow or the next day! I will post pictures later after it accumalates a little more. Yes, it's sticking. Rielly will be so excited.

Haven't heard...

2008-11-15T19:30:00.001-08:00

ANYTHING! Still waiting on Michael's. Remember I talked about the infamous 'personality' test? Well apparantly all is well with that, they are STILL waiting on my background. All I can figure is that just what Wilton said, all the holiday hiring is backing up the background checkers. So, I'll let you all know, when I know. Still wish me some luck.

WILTON APPROVED!

2008-11-03T15:16:00.000-08:00

Well, I am officially Wilton approved. Now, I have to get Michael's approved. That will be the fun part. I guess I have to take a 'personality test' and the ever so fun 'background' check. Well, considering I have never had a problem with the law enforcement people, I guess I will be ok. I'll keep you posted. Hopefully Michael's hires me and I'll be good to go. Wish me luck!

HALLOWEEN!

2008-11-01T21:23:00.001-07:00

Here are the kids on Halloween for all of you that want pictures. We won't mention names, MOM, MARTY, oh, sorry. Enjoy!

The fun school parties

2008-10-31T08:57:00.001-07:00

Ok, if you are on Facebook, I have been talking about all the parties I somehow get involved in. We had back to back school parties yesterday. I had a blast with the kids and watching them have a great time was fun. Here are some pictures of the school parties.

ALexis' class. They had a real party. Holy cow! Tons of food and all sorts of fun. I think all teachers in Nevada are glad they have the day off today.

Rielly's Class Party. Kindergarten did a parade through the school, it was really cute. They were all so proud of their costumes and had a great time showing themselves off to the upper grade levels.

The Fall Festival

2008-10-31T08:40:00.000-07:00

Alexis, Rielly, and Amelia. Imagine Amelia being cooperative and smiling through her binki. Go ahead imagine.

Alexis' idea of a pie eating contest..must eat every bite. She got creamed.

Rielly's idea of a pie eating contest..

Here are some pictures of the Fall Festival at the kids elementry school. We really did have a good time, until Metro showed up. Obviously teenagers feel it best to crash a party that was never intended for them in the first place. What part of ELEMENTRY school did they not understand? Oh, the Elementry part. Anyhow, we had a good time and I thought I would share some pictures.

News Flash-- that I am excited about!

2008-10-30T16:14:00.000-07:00

Hi,

Just got a response from Wilton, they want my portfolio and then hopefully I get hired as an instructor! I am really excited and kind of freakin' out too. Nerves. Just thought I would share. I will post pics of kids later from our Halloween excursions. Bye for now!

Bad Habit: PROCRASTINATION!!
Procrastination
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Look up Procrastination in
Wiktionary, the free dictionary.Procrastination is a type of behavior which is characterized by deferment of actions or tasks to a later time. Psychologists often cite procrastination as a mechanism for coping with the anxiety associated with starting or completing any task or decision. [1] Psychology researchers also have three criteria they use to categorize procrastination. They believe that procrastination must be counterproductive, needless, and delaying.[2]

For an individual, procrastination may result in stress, a sense of guilt, the loss of personal productivity, the creation of crisis and the disapproval of others for not fulfilling one's responsibilities or commitments. These combined feelings can promote further procrastination. While it is normal for people to procrastinate to some degree, it becomes a problem when it impedes normal functioning. Chronic procrastination may be a sign of an underlying psychological or physiological disorder.

The word itself comes from the Latin word procrastinatus: pro- (forward) and crastinus (of tomorrow). The term's first known appearance was in Edward Hall's The Union of the Noble and Illustre Famelies of Lancastre and York, first published sometime before 1548.[3] The sermon reflected procrastination's connection at the time to task avoidance or delay, volition or will, and sin.

Just funny..

2008-10-24T13:08:00.000-07:00

A funny for today...

2008-10-16T12:48:00.000-07:00

Matt's office is what I think is funny today. Just some background. Since as long as he has worked for his current company there has been somewhat of a fun rivalry between him and another coworker. They are always trying to out do each other at holiday time. So, Matt decorated his office for Halloween, I don't have those pics-sorry. So, coworker "monkey" up his office. Threw monkey signs and stuff on his decor. So in return he webs her doorway. So this is what he came into this morning. VERY FUNNY! I LOVE anyone who can prank my hubby, because he does it so much to everyone else! Here are the pictures. Happy Halloween!!

(Sorry I can't get the pictures to get bigger-you get the idea)

Random things I have been thinking today;

2008-10-14T12:47:00.000-07:00

Ok, just some random thoughts.

1) Not so sure about this presidential election..kind of scares the you know what out of me.

2) Animal control SUCKS. Neighbors SUCK. Long story short, we had a dog, no longer have the dog, got rid of dog exactly one week ago, neighbor complains yesterday of barking from my address..I would like to know what kind of morons really do live around me. Either stupid or have nothing better to do. You know if you don't want to be bothered by anyone, anything, or any noise, go live out where you won't be. GRRR.

3) I really don't want to take this stats midterm.

4) My microeconomics teacher is well, you know.

5) I have weigh in tomorrow. Should be interesting. Totally screwed myself up with migrane, ate like crap, drank straight dr. pepper, that screams CALORIES! Should be interesting.

6) Had a nice visit with dad on Saturday and Sunday.

I guess that was more venting..sorry. Have a good day, I should go find some lunch. Wendi

Lexi-isms

2008-10-14T12:43:00.001-07:00

I have been fighting a really bad, nasty headache since Sunday that finally left me. But, this morning I have had a tummy ache, probably from all the meds I took trying to rid of the headache. Lex asked how I was feeling this morning I told her "my headache is gone, but now my tummy is upset". She said "oh, mom, I know what's wrong." I said "Oh you do?" She said, "well, if your head hurt and now your tummy aches, and it hurts to chew, that means you probably have the flu." I told her thanks and took her to school. Since when does your mouth hurt to have the flu? I thought that was funny.

Amelia being cute

2008-10-01T21:33:00.001-07:00

I just had to put this on...just cause she is so cute.

First Day of school

2008-10-01T21:03:00.000-07:00

Alexis and Rielly cheesin' it.
Rielly heading for the wrong door. It was actually funny.
Amelia just had to be part of the action.

Here are some pictures from the first day of school. The kids were SOOOO excited, and so was Mom. Oh, yeah I was jumping for joy...quite literally.

Thanks to Sonya...

2008-09-29T21:37:00.001-07:00

Here are pictures of my kids. Alexis, Rielly, and Amelia. Sonya took these and they are really cute. So now anyone who doesn't live close here you go.

Alexis' Baptism Day

2008-09-29T21:27:00.000-07:00

Alexis was baptized on August 2. She was excited. She was baptized by Matt. My cousin Joe and my dad witnessed. I am grateful for our family and friends who came to support us on her day. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed our time with all of you that were able to be here. Here are some pictures.

Picture # 1 Alexis

Picture #2 Marty, Wendi, Matt, Alexis, Rielly, Amelia, Mom

My House

2008-09-29T20:52:00.000-07:00

Now, you must know this is not what it looks like now. This is what it looked like before we moved in. It has paint on the walls and the orange is gone out of one of the two orange bedrooms. Seriously, the orange was hidious. I really do love my house. I like it even more as it comes together more and more. I am still trying to finish the paint job, due to the fact that my life isn't busy at all. It's pretty sad when I say to everyone whom enters "please excuse the paint job, we are still working". I feel stupid about it at times, probably shouldn't. Anyways, here are a few pictures.

An actual weekend alone...

2008-09-29T20:16:00.000-07:00

I went to Phoenix for a scrapbook convention. I met my mom and a couple of her friends there and we had an absolute blast. We were totally exhausted by the end of our 3 straight days of doing nothing but walking and scrapping, but it was nice to get away and have a weekend with the girls.

As I mentioned it was a scrapbook convention...you would think we would of taken tons and tons of pictures. Yeah, I took A picture. Here it is. The only proof.

From Left to Right, Mom or Jacquelyn, Melissa, and Ginger. I was obviously behind the camera. We had fun and I hope we can all do it again next year! Finish those projects girls!

Hi--I'm back

2008-09-24T12:53:00.000-07:00

Hi all. OK, I decided I was tired of looking "bad". I am going to try this blog thing again. I will try my hardest to be better so all of you can keep up with us--assuming I can keep up with myself.

Summer

2007-07-26T22:20:00.000-07:00

I had one goal this summer and that was organization. I am not sure what part of the word "organization" I don't understand. We are now one month from school starting and I haven't gotten one thing organized. Frustrating. This sweet little baby I have doesn't seem to be happy unless I hold her ALL the time. So I do. People tell me I will have plenty of time in life for a perfect house. I don't like that answer. I told DH that I need to just get rid of everything and start fresh. I am not sure how he felt about that idea. That would mean dh and dd would have to declutter. Darn! Any ideas on how to make a happy baby and organize a house in one month? Thanks.

I must say that I am excited for school to get started again. DD goes in to 2nd grade and I go into a forever sophomore status at the college. I MAY someday graduate. I am a 1/2 a tenth away from honors and am so excited. Anyone every taken Geology. I am a little nervous about that class. Wish me well.

My Thoughts on blogging

2007-07-26T22:19:00.000-07:00

So, I think I am still afraid of this blogging thing. If I could get past the mental block of sounding retarded, making someone angry, or just being weird I think this blog thing could be a really nice outlet for me. Hmm. I guess I need to tell people I have one. This could get interesting.

My new found hobbies

2007-06-21T22:08:00.000-07:00

Wow, I am finding new hobbies like crazy. I got invited to a Stampin' Up party and got hooked. I love their stuff. I have been on EBAY it seems non-stop finding stamps I guess I can't live without. It's been alot of fun and have made some really cute pages. Now I just have to get my area set up so I can scrap and stamp away. I can not wait to have a room all to myself just full of scrap, stamp, and craft stuff. That will be fun.

I also found that I could actually decorate a cake. I am pretty well impressed with myself. I made a cake for Lexi's birthday and did so well I made another one today for my friend's birthday. I will try to figure out how to post pictures. I don't know how to post them so when I figure it out I will.

Baby OH Baby

2007-05-08T18:18:00.000-07:00

My poor Amelia. She has been so unhappy these last couple days. I have no clue what I am doing wrong. I don't think I am really doing anything wrong, I believe she may be teething. I kind of remember teething with the other kids, but I guess I forgot. Amelia just cries and cries and cries some more. She cried until 5 am this morning and then has been pretty much unhappy all day. She is now finally sleeping. It's all par for the course, being I have a math final tomorrow morning and 2 papers due this week. This will teach me a lesson about procrastinating.

Other than Amelia, we are finally finishing this semester. I was going to go to school during the summer, but Matt pretty much talked me into a break. He said I needed a mental break. I am tired and mentally exhausted. It will be good to get caught up on all of my life from being pregnant. Yes, from pregnancy. You might say "that baby is 5 months old". I would say yes she is, however, I had a c-section and went back to school full time 5 weeks later. Therefore, my house will become organized, it will get a good deep clean, and it will be good quality time spent with the children. Sound fun?

I hope this finds you all well and happy. Wendi

OH MY WORD!

No pun intended..I have learned that I hate Critical Thinking, Fallacies, and Inductive Reasoning. You feel kind of stupid when you are on the phone with a friend and you say to them, "hey do you understand fallacies and can you help me" and in the meantime the Elder's come in for dinner and say "Oh, sister Lougy, I can help you with that". I felt pretty dumb. A 19-20 year old could explain fallacies better than the internet, my husband, grown-up friends, and my professor. The dumbest thing about it all was that ALL of the examples my professor put in his notes were on the test. Do you think I put two and two together? Nope. I am almost done with this semester and I am glad. I survived another very long 15 weeks. So, kudos to me!

Getting Started

I have been thinking for a long time I needed to start blogging. I have a couple friends and a sister who blog and I thought it would be a great way to keep family and friends in the loop. SO here I go on my blogging adventure. I kind of look at it as a way to tell what I am thinking and how I am feeling at the moment. This will be fun!

I am excited to meet new "virtual" friends. I like chatting. Anyone who knows me can testify to that. Well, good luck to me!
