day to myself

This Saturday I got a day all to myself full of pampering and shopping!  Last month Blaine and I put a little wager on the NCAA basketball brackets...if Blaine won I would fold my clothes for a month right after the dryer turns off instead of letting them sit there till next Tuesday when Blaine does the laundry again (that never really happens so I'm not sure why Blaine picked this as his prize).  If I won I wanted a day all to myself.  Don't get me wrong, I love my family and crave spending time with Kash, but I just thought it would be nice not to have to run errands around a nap schedule and not have a crying baby determine when it's time to leave a store.

Well I'm sure you guys figured out who won...ME!!!  So sorry sports loving husband.  Not so sorry that I don't have to fold my clothes fresh from the dryer!

Anyway my day off went a little something like this:

a yummy salad from Mad Greens

then it was massage time (sorry for the blurry pic, I was trying to take it quick so no one would bust me for taking a ridiculous picture of myself!)

And then I got my toes did

Followed up by a little shopping, no photos taken since that part of the day was somewhat of a bust. 

This was a much needed self care day!  Thanks for losing Blaine, but even more thanks for letting me have a nice day off and watching Kash!  Can't wait for March Madness 2012, I think I might ask for the same thing.

homemade gift

I have tons to blog about (Kash's 11 month post, all the Christmas activities, maybe a craft or two, etc.) but that requires brain power and I just don't have that!  So hopefully this little gem will hold you over for a day or two.

The Turnbow's started a tradition were we draw names for a normal Christmas present and another name for a homemade gift-that has a $5 limit.  While it's super stressful for the person making the homemade gift it's so exciting to see what everyone comes up with.  Each year it seems that we get more and more creative!  Tyler drew Blaine's name this year for homemade and this is what he gave him.  I could not stop laughing the first time I saw it, to the point I was crying!  Awesome job Ty, Blaine loved it!!!



hahah oh man I just watched it again and laughed my face off!  If you know Blaine this video is perfect for him!
