Thankfulness...the abridged version

I didn't jump on the Facebook bandwagon of listing the things I am thankful for every day. Who has time for that? So, here is the condensed version:


  1. For my kids. They are crazy and sweet and cuddly and hilarious. All at the same time. Every day is different with those three in it.
  2. For my husband. He has been there through everything with me over the years: the good, the bad, and the ugly. And he still sticks around despite all that!
  3. For my sister who knows everything about me and who I can call 24/7, 365, even if it is for the dumbest thing.
  4. For my parents. I see bad parents every day in my profession, which reminds me how blessed I am to have/had great ones.
  5. For the rest of my family. Extended family, you know who you are!
  6. For my job. I love my job and can honestly say I wake up every day looking forward to going to work.
  7. For my education. My parents instilled in me the importance of that.  Regardless of what happens to me in life, my degrees are the one thing no one can take away.
  8. For my crabby dog, Abby (frivolous I realize). That dog was like my first born! Love her! Can't hardly sleep without her big hairy butt noozled up next to me.
  9. For my University of Kentucky Wildcats. If you don't understand this one, then you are probably a hater!
  10. For my house, car, and all the other frivolous things I have. They may be material, but I am thankful nonetheless that God has provided a means for me to obtain the things that I want.
  11. For my friends. I don't see them often enough, but you hookers know who you are! Love ya!
  12. For my health. I don't really need to elaborate on this one.
  13. BLACK FRIDAY! I love you Black Friday!
  14. The memories I have of my childhood, all happy.

My kids be cray cray!

Let me start by saying I love my kids.  I really do. However, I have spawned three completely CUHRAZY offspring. Case in point:

Helping wrap presents

Who doesn't love Skyline?

Spaghettios anyone?

Walk tall, carry big stick

I'm not sure this even needs an explanation

The living room after the Terrible Tornadic Twos hit it

Cause fake kitchens are made for tipping over and climbing on

Naked arts and crafts

Watching TV together

Why I hate Leann Rimes

Girl had potential back in the day. I had the cassette single of "Blue". (Hehehehe. Ah, the days of cassette singles).

Maybe that was Leaan's fatal flaw........she peaked too soon.  Anyway, it's been all down hill from there. 

REASON #1 WHY I HATE LEANN RIMES: Her rendition of "How do I Live".  Classic song from a great movie.....Can you really go wrong with Nicolas Cage and a fake country accent!?! Leave that song to Trisha Yearwood.  Her version was waaaay better. Heard Leann's version on the radio the other day and my ears burned. I promptly changed the station and decided to write this post.

REASON # 2 WHY I HATE LEANN RIMES: She's a homewrecker. Granted it was with this weirdo, who I'm not sure was a catch to begin with. I mean, at best, he's a C list actor. Not something worth ruining your career over.






REASON # 3 WHY I HATE LEANN RIMES: Bitch goes and gets all anorexic and shit. Seriously, on what planet is that attractive?



REASON # 4 WHY I HATE LEANN RIMES: She checked herself into rehab for "anxiety and stress". Bitch wouldn't know anxiety and stress if it slapped her in the face and called her a whore! I work full time and have 3 kids under 5.........I am the one who needs rehab for anxiety and stress.  Only the version of rehab I could afford would be drastically different than Leann's version!

Any of you have celebrities that drive you nuts??? Also on my list are anyone named Kardashian, anyone who has ever been on a reality show on MTV, Kobe Bryant, Tom Cruise, etc.

Attention Whores

I thought of this brilliant post last week when I heard about this douche.  The douche in question would be the guy who pretended the airplane he was flying was crashing and then wait.......drumroll...........he proposed!! WTF?!?!?! That is the stupidest shit I have ever heard. That is in no way romantic. Even dumber is the fact that this gal said yes.

That news story got me thinking about other dumb marraige proposals. Take 5 minutes to look it up online (it's worth a Google) and you will find hundreds of stories of stupid proposals: Jumbotron, tv appearance, half court at NBA game, flashmobs, and the list goes on and on.

Anyone besides me think these fools are just attention whores?!?! Why else would you take one of the most sentimental and personal moments of your life and broadcast it for everyone to see? I consider these attention whores on the same level as those people who videotape their water birth and put that shit on Youtube. Ain't nobody wants to see that. Ever. Not even in Health class. I wouldn't even watch a video of my ownself giving birth much less some other bitch I don't know.

Seriously, what is wrong with people!? But then again, attention whores are everywhere. Especially in the blogging world. These bloggers that have 2,000+ followers.........how? Why? I admit I follow some of them, but then I wonder why am I reading this shit?!!? I don't know this person from Adam.

I personally think the people with tons and tons of followers probably lead a far more fabulous life than I (or at least pretend to in cyber world).  At the very least, they are cuter and wearer nicer clothes! I am surprised at how few followers I have??? What? You mean people don't want to hear stories about my kids semi-naked wrestling on the floor of the doctor's office? How I sat home all weekend in my PJs without so much as washing my hair or leaving the house?? You mean people don't find that fascinating? Oh well, at least that means I am not an attention whore! :)

Honey Boo Boo

Seriously, what is there not to love about this show? The hubs says it's a train wreck. Duh! Of course it's a train wreck. That's the reason I love it. I mean, the family even lives in a house in front of a train track. It couldn't be more perfect.

In all seriousness though, this family is real. Mama may not feed her kids the best diet in the world, but her and Sugar Bear seem to genuinely love their children.  The parents are always doing something with the kids, taking them to the Redneck Games, out to eat, for pedicures, muddin', etc. They are making memories with the kids, which is more than a lot of parents can say. 

They also seem to be civic minded.....hell Sugar Bear dressed in a Santa suit in the heat of summer in Georgia in order to get canned goods for the community! That's teaching your kids to care about others and to care about your community. Again, not to sound like my own momma, but this is what's wrong with this country....the citizens have lost their morals, values, and empathy for others. Maybe we need more Sugar Bears and Junes in the world! (Mom, if you are reading this, I am sure you are cringing as you hate Honey Boo Boo! Whatever, hate on hater! I love this show!!!!)

So Mama's forklift foot was covered in gnats, she took her kids to bingo and she allows them to eat cheese balls in bulk? Your point is?!?! She's trying....she's doing the best she can with what she has. And at the end of the day, isn't that all that matters?  I think so.  My house is always an explosion of toys and dirty laundry, sometimes the twins don't match, and sometimes (not that often, so don't judge) my kids go 2 days without a bath! Hell, sometimes we even eat hot dogs for dinner! But we are trying and are doing the best we can with what we have. Our kids are loved and it shows.

That's the message I think you get from Honey Boo Boo.  And that's my plug for the show. Besides, what is there not to love about this hot mess:

Dancing with the Stars Top 10 observations

I love this show, but the hubs hates it. Alas, I am stuck TiVoing it out of respect for the hubs who for some reason doesn't want to watch half nude males gyrating music.  This season, it's the Allstars, which makes me love the show even more. We aren't stuck with the likes of Master P or Kenny Mayne.  All these people are good.  Damn good!

I must say I thoroughly enjoyed my 45 minutes zipping through DWTS this morning and sipping coffee. Observations from last night's episode:

  1. Maks is HOT!!!.
  2. Joey Fatone has gray hair.  Let me repeat: a member of my second all time favorite boy band has gray hair (Sorry NYSNC, my heart belongs to NKOTB as Jordan Knight was my first true love).  This is disturbing on a variety of levels, the most disturbing of which is it makes me feel old. And I am not old. Nor will I ever be old!
  3. Maks is still hot.
  4. The reference by Kirstie Alley re: Maks and 50 Shades of Grey makes Maks even hotter.
  5. If Maks is a 10+, his brother is a solid 8.5 in clothes and a 9 shirtless.
  6. Derek Hough is hot too.  He'd be hotter if I could ever ascertain whether or not he is actually hetero. I'm still not certain.
  7. Kelly Monaco has a point.....it is difficult to dance with fake fun bags.  I never really thought about this before but now it all makes sense....this is why the professional dancers are all flatish. No one wants a black eye from a DD fun bag while doing the Cha Cha. This may explain Pamela Anderson's quick departure last week. Or it could just be because the bitch has two left feet.
  8. Shawn Johnson, Sabrina Ryan, and Melissa Rycroft are just the cutest little things. I would love to have them as BFFs in real life. I just want to squeeze little Shawn Johnson.
  9. Maks is hot.
  10. Drew Lachey is strong. I always thought his biceps were just for looks.  I mean, with a brother like Nick Lachey and his massive guns, you gotta at least try to keep up. But last night, he proved they were more than just for show and did an amazing sideways hand stand thingie on a lamp post.  While it is impressive, he still ain't no Maks.....too short for my liking! You can see his impressive feat here.

WTF Wednesday on a Monday!

A few things have come to my attention on this lovely Monday that have led to me to scream (to myself of course) WTF!?!? That's how you know it's going to be a good week....when you are screaming WTF and it's only Monday! :)

First, I saw someone at work wearing this little number today:


She was an adult! WTF?

Second, I hear this tool now has a sex tape:


with this hooker (allegedly) as the leading lady:

 
Beacause sometimes, one sex tape just ain't enough. Why does this hooker not get a real job?? I literally despise her and everyone in her family. At the risk of sounding like my mother, I believe the Kardashians are what is wrong with society and the world today.

Finally, Jason Aldean. Why? I once defended you when a friend told me her friend's cousin's sister made out with you at a concert. Again, why? All I can say is he better write some damn good lyrics from all this drama! You can read it here if you have been under a rock: WTF?

Freebie List

I am a huge fan of Friends.  If you are a fan too, you have no doubt watched the episode about the Freebie List.  If you were under a rock in the late 90's, here's the clip.

Anyway, the general idea is that the Friends each have a freebie list...a list of celebrities they are allowed to sleep with and their significant other can't get mad. I was in college when Friends was popular and this subject became a hot topic among my friends at the time. Over the years, my list has evolved.  The following is the current version (in no particular order):


Channing Tatum
 
The guy is smokin' hot! Anyone who says otherwise is either blind or clearly hasn't seen the awesomeness that is Magic Mike. A true cinematic treasure!!


David Beckham

Someone once told me they didn't get the appeal and why people found him attractive. I showed that moron a picture of him in his undies and she quickly changed her mind. The only negative thing I can find about him is that he is attached to that twat Posh Spice. Bitch needs to eat!!! But his lovely British accent outweighs any negative that Posh might bring to the table!


Justin Timberlake

Dude has dance moves and he is HUHlarious on SNL. But let's face it, this choice is mainly for nostalgia purposes.  He is the only constant on my list...dating back to his N'Sync days.


Ryan Lochte (but only in a Speedo and only if his mouth is taped shut)
 
 
The dude is a douche, no doubt about it.  But he can swim fast and he is the hottest douche I have ever seen. He only made the list this past summer. 
Charlie Hunam (but only if he's on the back of a motorcycle wearing his Samcro jacket)
If you don't watch Sons of Anarchy, you should. If nothing else, this hottie has lots of sex scenes on the show. I think it's the bad ass attitude he has on the show that makes him all the more hot!


Honorable Mention:

  • Ryan Gosling
  • Adam Levine
  • The Rock
  • Jon Hamm (but only as Don Draper)
  • Ryan Reynolds (pre Scar Jo....I think she is a trashy skank and just can't put that aside enough to move him up the list)
So who is on your list? And for those of you wondering, I am sure my significant other has a list and I know the top of his list is Charlize Theron and Alison Krauss.

Happy (belated) birthday!

My baby boys turned 2 on Monday. I can hardly believe it. Just yesterday, it seems I was waddling around waiting for their arrival.


John Carter
 
John, you are all boy. You love anything related to balls and sports. You have one helluva arm and Mommy and Daddy are really putting all their eggs in the "John's going to be a professional athlete" basket. You are a real daredevil and love to take flying leaps off the couch.  You love giving kissies and you are so tenderhearted.  You are my baby that still loves to snuggle. You get your feelings hurt easy and you get mad easily. You are world famous for your fits where you lay face down on the floor and scream! :) You march to your own beat and only do things on your terms. If you don't want to do it, you're not doing it.


Evan Connor


 
Evan, you are such a good kid.  You rarely ever cry, whine or get in trouble.  You are kind and are always the first one to share your toys or check on one of us when we have a boo boo or cough/sneeze. :) You love reading and literally can sit and study things for close to an hour. You are our little intellectual. We are convinced you will be a rocket scientist one day (in case the John as a professional athlete doesn't work out, we have your successfulness to fall back on).  When you do get upset, the whole house is going to know about it....your face turns red and veins pop out! You definitely look up to your big brother to see if the daredevil act he is about to commit is safe....and then you do it too. 


We love you both to pieces.  You are each so unique, but also similar in a lot of ways.  You have rocked our world by going from a family of 3 to 5, but we have loved every minute of it. I can't wait to see what the two of you grow into.  I'm looking forward to the next year to see what new boy adventures the two of you bring to our house.

Love,

Mommy

Observations

This last weekend we headed down to Gatlinburg for a family reunion/vacation. Observations from the weekend:

1. Dramamine is safe for children and that shit works like a charm. 3 kids and a total of 12ish hours in the car and not one tear was shed! Not one!

2. Do not promise your kid a mermaid show without asking first of the mermaid show is seasonal....it was!

 
 

3. A bear sighting will unite people young and old. One came up to our cabin, my aunt shouts "BEAR!!" and 27 Pigmans came running!!

Can't wait to do it again next year! We all had a blast, thanks to our new best friend, the makers of Dramamine!

How do you pronounce that?

I haven't always loved my name, but the longer I work in my profession the more I realize I'm blessed to have something that's normal, semi-common, and pronounceable. Doing this job, I see all kinds of names.....and a lot of them are REALLY REALLY bad. And really really unfortunate.

Due to confidentiality reasons, I can't reveal all of my client's lovely names. I totally wish I could. Trust me, you would laugh! Hysterically! But I can reveal that a reliable source told me yesterday about a new case that came through the Court and the child's name is.............. drumroll .......... LITHIUM! Seriously?? Isn't that something they put in batteries? Or gave crazy people back in the day as part of their crazy people therapy? What was this mother thinking? With a name like Lithium, this mother has severely limited her child's future job prospects.  Top three career choices for Lithium whatsherlastname, Class of 2020: 1.) McDonald's cashier, 2.) Stripper, 3.) crack whore.

Then there is the story of the child in Dayton whose name was Chocolate Mattress.....but that's a whole other blog post!

Along that same line, if you haven't read the book Freakonomics, you should. They have an entire chapter on how naming your child affects the child's future. It's fascinating, and in my opinion, mostly true. I recently ran upon this other guy's article on ridiculous baby names and died laughing! It's all so true. I only wish I had written it myself, but alas I can't take credit. Trust me, you will pee your pants when you read it!

One day my children will thank me for names like Madeline, John and Evan. And don't even get me started on rhyming twin names.....I see that a lot in my job too! And that too, friends, is a whole other post for another day!

Almost two.....Momma's happy

Well the twins will be 2 in a few weeks. Although I'm sad my babies are growing up, I am also ecstatic that they are starting to be more independent and self sufficient. It's been a long two years cooped up in my house. I don't think anyone can truly appreciate how difficult it is to take two kids the same age out in public without one or both of them losing their shit until you have twins of your own.

Because the twins are getting older and more well behaved, I took all 3 kids out for breakfast this morning. Granted it was only Frisch's and I made them all get the buffet (those 10 minutes while you wait for the cook to prepare your food is painful), but everyone lived to tell about it which is really all that matters!

Roid rage!

Two of my three angels are currently on steroids. For those of you without children or who have never personally witnessed anyone on steroids, let me break it down for you: Day one = Grouchy kids, Day two = Whiny kids, Day three = Hyper kids. Oh did I mention it was a three day weekend and it rained the entire time!! That means this Momma was ready for the nut house by the end of the weekend!

I tried to occupy their time with art projects. Saturday we painted pine cones, had a pretend car wash with shaving cream, did art with stamps, colored on a shower curtain with dry erase markers, and played Playdoh at least 3 times. When parents pin this shit on Pinterest it looks way cooler (and their kids seem waaayyyy more chillaxed) than when my kids partake. Case in point:


Shaving cream head

You mean you don't paint your body with finger paint?!?!


I finally decide to venture outdoors on Sunday and then the Roid rage culminates with Maddy crashing out in a Meijer shopping cart.





Oy! What does all this mean you ask?? 6pm bedtime two nights in a row!

What can make a sh*t week suck less?

This week has sucked asssssssss! X 100! Rather than drone on and on about all that, let's chat about something completely frivolous and trivial.......thanks to my friend Cara who posted a link to an AWESOME article on Facebook, I have a renewed faith in humanity. 

Brace yourself people…...insert drumroll here…......apparently 90210's Dylan and Kelly are once again an item! Eek!

I know you are as shocked as I am. Feel free to read the article here: Kelly *hearts* Dylan 4ever!



I'm sure you are wondering if it's true!? Well of course it is! The source is the National Enquirer! I don't know whether to be happy or jealous?!

After mulling it over, I've decided to be happy because let's face it: as long as he's not with Brenda, I'm fine with it. Now if only Donna would finally give it up to David! 





Aug 28, 2012

Happy birthday to yours truly!

Hooray! I am 29....again, for the 4th year straight! I am so lucky.

Anyway, minding my own business today, having a great day, rocking a cute birthday outfit and then BAM! Some bitch stops me on the street downtown and mistakes me for another lawyer.....okay, not upset. Then she apologizes and says the following: "You look just like Jennifer, same hair, same glasses, and you are even pregnant just like she is!"

Excuse me hooker! That bitch just broke the cardinal rule of womanhood: NEVER EVER TELL A WOMAN SHE LOOKS PREGNANT! EVER! Even if she is clearly pregnant! I wanted to smack a ho! And I don't even look pregnant.......I was having a skinny day! Skank should have seen me on a fat day!

Now, off to enjoy what's left of a day that should be a National Holiday: my birthday!

A Weaving loom = a night of doom

Anyone remember these from their childhood? I spent the better part of third or fourth grade making everyone I knew a potholder.


I got the genius idea to buy one for Maddy while browsing at Hobby Lobby. My plan had two fatal flaws:

1. My child has the attention span of a flea.
2. A 32 year old Stephanie has much larger fingers and poorer eye sight than 8 year old Stephanie had. Also 32 year old self has a much shorter fuse and is easily frustrated!!

*Fail* I gave up after about an hour and I only finished half of the damn potholder!

Jul 25, 2012

Vacation all I ever wanted, vacation had to get away.......

We had the good GREAT fortune of getting to go out of town last weekend for our anniversary SANS children! It was awesome! Special shout out to Granny and Auntie Becky for watching these three adorable crazies for 3 days. We had a great time. 

It was our first trip away from home without the kids.  We told Maddy we were going to "work meetings", which luckily, she believed. She requested we bring her back a surprise, specifically a giant lollipop:


Looking back, giant lollipops for 1 year twins may not have been the best idea.


The kids were exhausted from the trip to Granny's, yet also on a giant sugar rush still from the lollipops. I got slap happy/bored on the way home and took pictures:

Steaming hot (in more ways than one)

For anyone who doesn't live in the midwest or who lives under a rock, let me state the obvious: IT HAS BEEN FRIGGIN HOT!! Which translates into three very crazy/hyper children.  In an effort to rid myself of three minions and cool off, I treated myself last week to this little nugget:


YUM! HOT! OH YEAH!

Okay, so that really didn't cool me off....quite the opposite! That movie was hot!!  In all seriousness, I give it two thumbs up! WAY UP! :)

My only critique: the plot parts involving the love interest were kinda slow...she's not a very good actress. She had that constipated look on her face the whole movie.....and her laugh rivaled Janice from Friends on obnoxious level.  But the slow parts were overshadowed by something much larger (tee hee): CHANNING TATUM! I mean, seriously, has there ever been a finer specimen of man!? Ever? I think not.

I couldn't resist stealing this from some gal on Pinterest:



LOL! Anyone else seen it and loved it?!?!

Jun 18, 2012

I'm a shy lion

This weekend was Maddy's ballet recital.  Although I have been threatening to not do ballet again after this season (it's expensive, time consuming, and the kid acts disinterested), how can we not do it when they look this cute:


I mean, seriously. How cute is she? Her class were little shy lions.......so adorable. Here's the after shot (she was not a fan of the headpiece):



She actually did really well this year and had most of the steps memorized for her dance.

I think one reason I put her in ballet is because I wanted to take dance as a kid and never got the opportunity.  I grew up in a rural area and dance classes were just not available.  Plus, we was po (too poor for the other O-R).  I keep telling myself it's that old adage about giving your kid everything you never had.  Is that wrong that I am living vicariously through my 4 year old? :)

A day in the life

Yesterday Maddy and I made cookies. She was in charge of putting on the powdered sugar:


Even the dog was covered in powdered sugar. But at least she's helpful in cleaning up the mess on the floor.




This is what the twins did while we made cookies:




That pretty much sums up a day in my life! These kids are crazy!

May 29, 2012

On my proverbial soapbox.....yet again

I feel like I alternate blog postings by either sharing my chidlren's most recent fiascos or complaining/or getting on my soapbox. Which is, in all honestly, what I do all day every day.....complain, argue, tell hilarious story about my kids, rinse and repeat! Saw this little nugget last week on the Today Show (am I the only moron who yells at her tv when some news story upsets me!?!?):


In a nutshell, this gal calls off her wedding several months beforehand and the dude is suing her for her part of the money he shelled out. Is it just me or does anyone else think she ought to have to pay him back?  She signed the contract to rent the place, the flowers, the DJ, etc. She should have to pay it back too! Why should he bear all the costs? Oh and she mysteriously withdrew of $50,000 from their joint bank account the day she dumped him! HO!!!

If you took the time to read the article or watch the clip, you will realize this story proves one thing: never trust an Ex-Hooters girl.....once a Hooters girl, always a Hooters girl. Watch the cinema classic Big Daddy if you don't believe me! :)

May 13, 2012

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there. A job that's often unappreciated by our little bundles of joy, while simultaneously being one of the most difficult jobs out there.....but also one of the most rewarding! Here's my reward today:




Nothing like chocolate and soft-core porn on this special day! I actually couldn't be happier....I've been dying to read this book!

Apr 21, 2012

Wow!

First, that WOW is because I just discovered a blogger app on my iPhone and I have literally had this phone for 6 months!! I'm always the last to discover things!!

Second wow this week was this:




Dayton held the largest gathering of B25 planes since World War II…I think 20 in total. It was a sight and actually brought tears to my eyes as I watched veterans salute the fly over. Sorry the picture is so crummy, but as I tried to get a better one with my iPhone, the phone went nuts.....turns out my kid had downloaded too many apps and there was no space left for photos! By the time I fixed the problem, the planes were gone! :(

My Clone (*shudders....a scary thought)

Everyone's posting about their celebrity twin, so I thought I would try it. For years, people have said they thought I looked like Barbara Streisand from the 70s:


BABS IN THE 70s

and the chick from Blossom and Big Bang Theory, Mayim Bialik.


BLOSSOM/CHICK FROM BIG BANG THEORY

 I think neither are very glamorous or who, ideally, I'd like to look like.  I always hated when people said that I looked like Babs or Blossom in high school.  Just a few weeks ago, a security guard at Court told me I looked like the Big Bang Theory gal. I silently groaned, but laughed so I didn't hurt the ol' guy's feelings!

Here's the photo I used for this little test (*note, I used a photo from my pre-kids days):


The first result from this website: Avril Lavigne


 Not too bad. I will take Avril Lavigne, considering the alternatives it chose for me included Screech from Save by the Bell (kill me!!) and Jared Leto (at least he's semi-attractive)!

So, this was the result when I went to this website: Michael Caine



WTF? So not only do I look like a man, but I look like a geriatric man! Awesome! It also mentioned Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit. I truthfully don't know which makes me cringe more.


On second thought, I think I will take Blossom and/or Babs!! They don't seem so bad afterall!

Hoppy Easter!

Maddy began early Saturday asking me when the Easter Bunny would be here.  It was a longgggg 24 hours waiting for his arrival. We put the boys to bed early Saturday and dyed eggs with just M (18 mo. old twins and dye do not mix). Here she is dying her eggs!


(And yes she is holding up the #1 symbol........she is still celebrating the CATS winning the National Championship!)

I got up at 6am on Easter morning and ran through the drive-thru at Tim Horton's for Easter egg shaped eggs! They were so cute!


I told the kids the Easter bunny had left them breakfast! Maddy was stoked....the twins mainly licked frosting and made a huge mess.






The Easter bunny left a decent sized haul (the last thing my kids need is more toys, so the bunny kept it to a minimum).  Maddy was quick to point out that the Easter bunny got her a duplicate toy. Oops, Easter Bunny/Mommy forgot!  Told you they had too many toys!

Here's the haul:

Best thing in the basket....this baby:


Do you guys remember these? I loved them as a kid! They are only a buck at Michael's...they are the mini ones, but still that's a great deal! They had a girlie one and a sheriff too! So cute!

How was your Easter? Hope it great!
