Mission. . .FAIL!

(1) Rebecca was right, I was headed to the new H&M grand opening, but it was a zoo, and I have a daughter who doesn't deal well with a lot of noise, so we had a quiet stroll around Paradise Valley Mall instead!

(2) DO NOT EVER get a cocktail recipe from Brad Swope after he has had 12 beers! My Skittles martini needed a few more ingredients other than the Skittles and vodka he swore by. It was yummy, after I added lemonade and Sprite, but not so yummy by its lonesome!

Guess Where I am Going Today!!!!!

Loved by celebrities, moms, teens, young adults, men, women, and magazines!!!


Anyone????

I LOVE TARGET!

Last night I got 3 Wii Games and Barbie Salon and Style for $98! Seriously, usually you can't get two Wii Games for under $100, but with my coupons, I totally scored!!!!!

Ten on Tuesday

1. The Suns Game was soooooooooooo much fun on Sunday night! I could definitely be a season ticket holder of Suns Tickets! The game is so fast paced, the entertainment value is there: Gorilla, dancers, half time performances, etc. Unfortunately, none of the players fell on me to get the ball, BUT have the ball bounce off her head after it was kicked out of bounds, I did not envy her.

2. It is going to be 94 degrees today! Holy HOT!

3. Today White Chocolate Grill sent out a gift card so that I can find something else at the restaurant I like since I have been disappointed in the gravy that comes with the French Dip recently.

4. My kids also won the Halloween Photo contest (last year's picture of them dressed as Mickey and Minnie), so I won a prize for that! HOORAY!

5. Were any of you at the PV Target today around noon, if so, my guess is you heard Tyler throwing the biggest fit of her life. One lady walked up to me and told me to stay strong. AND IDIOT DAD walked up to me and told me his son wanted to know what was wrong with my little girl. Seriously, only a dad would do that! DO I LOOK LIKE I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!?????

6. Target has buy two get one free Wii games, plus they have a $10 off coupon online! HELLO, DEAL!

7. Jackson is soooooooooo much easier to Christmas shop for than Tyler.

8. I really need a pedicure!

9. I booked Pat and I some Spa-ca-tions at Dolce for next weekend. Pat has never had a massage or facial, but he is going for it. I am super excited, and I think secretly Pat is too!

10. Gonna try and take a shower and be ready to RUN out the door when Pat gets here, it has been that kind of day!

My BLANK is bigger than YOURS

It is contest time, and I will bet my bathtub is bigger than yours (which is REALLY detrimental because the water goes cold before filling it up-but I haven't tried it since the whole new water heater thing! AND for the record, that is just our bathtub with the hard water stain that I cannot get out, we have a seperate shower)!



On your blog post your best "My BLANK is bigger than YOURS!" Leave a comment here, and I will check it out. The best "My BLANK is bigger than YOURS!" will win a copy of the new Michael Buble CD, Crazy Love!!!!

No fair doing, MY student loan debt is bigger than YOURS because I would bet we win that too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck!

I will announce the winner on Pat's 30th birthday, November 10th!!!!

Feel free to @shakakan23 on twitter to enter the contest as well! HOWEVER, pictures are strongly encouraged!!!
