Fascination with Pet Peeves.

For the most part me and Cody are super easy going people. Sometimes I wished that we fought more, just for the sport of it. ..seriously sometimes you just need a good fight to spice things up! As it happens to be though we are both extremely boring. Not much fighting, or getting upset... just hanging out. For this reason sometimes I like to focus on things that make us super annoyed. Might sound strange, but I like seeing things that make Code mad sometimes.. as I’m sure the same goes for him. ALSO I think the things that annoy us also says a lot about us. For this reason I have decided to list mine and Cody’s classic Pet Peeves. I would love to hear all of your pet peeves. Lay them on me!!..

Cody’s
slow mergers
fuzzy television
movies about humans ruining the earth
Overly protective/overbearing mothers (*disclaimer* neither of Cody’s mother figures fit this category)
people that say something in 20 minutes that should have taken 20 seconds

Rae’s

wreaths/bows on cars (mostly in the holiday season)
not enough peanuts in a snickers bar
cars at the front of the line who are ignorant to the green light (esp. in the turning lane!!)
hair on the soap. (especially blond/white hair that is camouflage that acts as a booby trap *ahem* Deanna)
people who think that eating expired dairy products is okay. shnasty.
Talk radio. (I still love you Cody)
devil/angel stickers on cars

sad day.



Sad day. (well, two days ago really.) Michael Jackson died. Despite his later freaky years, he was extremely talented! There is one huge question that remains in my head though. What was this need to be white!? Seriously!!.. Didn’t that piss all the black people off? AND What about his song ‘it don’t matter if your black or white?’ Come on Michael, practice what you preach! And as if anyone would believe he was white, even if he didn’t end up looking freaky weird – what white guy can dance like Micheal? No one..
BTW I was looking up and watching all his music videos and I audibly laughed throughout all of them. Ah, amazing 80’s videos!

Aspen Grove






This trip was our second trip to Utah this month. We (Arnold family) had a family reunion up at Aspen Grove. We do this family reunion every other year in turn with Canada. I've never fully appreciated Aspen Grove until this year... They have amazing day care!!! (which I took full advantage of) they have groups for teens/kids/babies. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love my baby.. But it was fantastic being able to drop him off at 9 and then pick him up at 3. It was like I had a job, except I did nothing but paint in the craft lodge, shuffleboard (Yes I am old), played on my g pa's golf simulator, wally balled and more board games that I can count.
Now I am sad because I have to wait 2 more years to go back:(
AND I am doubley sad because I am needing to register for my fall semester, but avoiding it like the plague.

Side note: I don't think this baby is mine. HELLO CODY!!! how are ALL of your genes strong enough to dominate all of mine. This is your mini me..

My little Boy



Warning: this video is long (I am not sure how to crop it.)

This video of Mack is a month or so old, but I couldn't resist posting it. This was in Park City Utah. How cute is my fat little man!? It seems like he is growing so fast. He is now laughing and is serisouly the happiest baby in the world. I can't get enough of his sassy little personality!! I am loving not having school this summer. It is so fun just to focus on being a mom, and enjoying my little boy.
