WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE....

Holy Crapamini I can barely contain myself!! I just found out they are making one of my fave kid books of all time into a movie!!!! I am sooooooooooooooooo going to see it. It comes out this fall, the trailer on it looks amazing, although some littler ones might be scared of it. I am SOOOO excited, did anyone know about this?!?!?

Fun times....

Katie and Me

Dan's homemade bday dinner

Last week I had the pleasure of attending an ultrasound conference at the Mariott Hotel with all of my lovely ladies at my clinical site. After the conference Katie and I went to Power and Light District to complete the evening with some fun! Thanks Katie for a great night, I had so much fun, we must do it again soon! 

Just some other random pics on here. I let Dan choose whatever he wanted for his bday dinner from me and he asked for chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and biscuits. So, I made it allll from scratch! I sooo have to make more biscuits from scratch, they were just sooo tasty! Everything was tasty really, and I was even more excited that the chicken fried steak came out so well! 

The last one is of our silly Abbie, squishing herself into a  pizza box!! A PIZZA BOX!! lol The darn thing was only about an inch wide, what made her decide to try to fit in it I have no idea. 

My Dad and Dan's Bday

When we celebrated Dan's Bday we also celebrated my dad's bday! So, I thought I would post a few from that. The first one of Liam and Kylie is oh so cute, they sat in the chair together and "read" the cards! hee hee too cute! Oh and the one of Dan and the two guys, fellow blogger followers they are with shadow pictures! The handsome fellow in the red is Justin and the handsome fellow in the green is John! (ha ha your welcome guys!) They have known Dan FOREVER and Justin is one of his best friends. Thanks again guys for making the drive, we were so glad you could make it! Somehow I did not get a single picture of Momma or Papa Jackson!! CRAZY I know. Sorry guys about that, the weekend just flew by too fast. Thanks for making the drive too, we loved having you. Thanks to everyone that came to the party!! The last one is on Dan's actual Bday, since I spent so much time on his alligator cake I asked him what he wanted bought from the store! ha ha Tippins pie it was, and my was it oh so tasty! What a great 30th bday!

Our trip to Topeka!

George, Me, Sonia and Tank!

Hee hee, HAD to take this pic, so short and so tall!
Ichabod Alumni and soon to be Ichabod Alumni
YUMMY 3LB burger and fries!

Today we took a day trip to see Sonia, one of my best friends since 7th grade, in Topeka. Thanks Adria for posting that yummy burger post you did awhile ago, we totally went to Seabrook Bar and Grill because of you and we LOVED it! Huge burger and mound of fries and oh so tasty! Noah (Sonia's stepson) and Skylers (Noah's friend) eyeballs were sooo huge when they brought out the food, it was hilarious! After our tasty lunch we headed to the Washburn campus for some pics with the Ichabod! As you all know, I am currently an Ichabod, going through my ultrasound and Sonia is an Ichabod grad! We had to stop and take some silly pics, including the pic of Dan and Sonia. Their height difference is hilarious! Back to Sonia and Mikes house after that for some hanging out with the doggies. Sonia has a boston terrier too, except for he is truer to the boston size and is only 14 lbs, George however is a tad large and is 26 lbs! Tank is soooo cute and tiny, we just wanted to take him home! Weird how the big girl has the big dog and the tiny girl has the tiny dog! :) Oh, and one of the funniest parts of the day, Seabrook totally rats on you if you write them a bad check! (seriously who writes checks still anyway!!)  Way to go Kimberly Haxton! Thanks Sonia for a GREAT afternoon, next time we need to schedule it on a day Mike is not in class. We had so much fun with you, I miss ya already! 

Happy Birthday My Hubsies!!

Dan's 30th Bday cake, he requested

Wow, the big 3-0! It finally came! I love you so much hun, I hope you have the best birthday ever, although I don't know if you can top our engagement on your bday last year! :) My love for you is incredible, and always will be. A hundred hearts would be too few to carry all my love for you. This birthday is actually a little bit sweeter than any other birthday of yours we have shared. This one is so great knowing we are husband and wife and forever will be for the rest of our birthdays yet to come. Happy Birthday honey bear! xoxo

Another day at the Jackson's......

Hee  Hee, our three amigos....
Mmmmm cheesey sausage balls

Just a few pics from our household. The first one is what we get to see every time we leave our  house! You have to look closely but Louie is at the top of the stack, he's hard to see with the reflection of the house. How we manage to leave and get anything done with those three sad faces staring at us I will never know. 

I made cheesey sausage balls last week for the first time ever and WOW, very very tasty. That recipe was from Betty Crocker's website. The last pic is of my spoon mums that Dan surprised me with last week, he's sooooo sweet.  Thanks hubsies, now if I can just keep them alive..... Hope everyone is having a good week, I am very much looking forward to tomorrow night with my girls and some margaritas! 

March for Babies

I have signed up to be on a team (Keri's team) for a March of Dimes walk on May 3rd, 2009 (my 30th bday!!) So, if any of you can, please sign up too on our team and come walk with us that day! If you can't be there maybe you can make a donation instead! 

My family has participated in Bikers for Babies for March of Dimes for YEARS, so this will be fun to do something different. And, it's on my bday, what a great way to celebrate my birthday than to help other babies! Don't be shy and please sign up! The walk is downtown KCMO in the Power and Light district. Hope to see lots of you there!

I had to take that pic of George, pay attention to where his little hiney is, on the stairs! He was so sleepy and lovin the sun, he was falling asleep sittin on the stairs. He is so silly.
Tonight I snapped the pic of Abbie in Dan's duty belt, apparently she wants to be a po po too when she grows up. :)
Dan turns the big 3-0 on the 12th, but we are celebrating his bday and my dad's 54th this saturday!! Mom and Dad Jackson, Justin and John are all coming from the Lou, can't wait to see all of you guys and everyone else that will be there!!! Dan has requested the cutest cake ever, I am just hoping I can make it look halfway like it is supposed to, anyone want to guess what it is? Hope everyone had a good hump day, mine was CRAZY!
