Long Time, No See!

Wow I've been busy! My boys are getting big!
It's been a while since I've been able to just sit down and type. It honestly feels very nice to be able to get away for even a second to do this. I almost forgot my password! Yikes. I need to be on top of this a little more.

Over the past month, my niece has been having some problems. She's been getting bullied at school a lot by two little girls who used to be her best friends. Well, this little girl was introduced to another one of my niece's friends and they began to ignore her. Cassie (my niece) was getting upset so she invited the two of them over her house to play. The two girls didn't show up and the next day started some nasty rumors about Cassie. Poor Cassie has come to my house crying in the afternoon. I don't know why these girls would pick on her. :(

Honey...where's our room?

Here's a story for you guys from the first time Anthony and I went to Disney. :)

We stayed at the yacht club resort. Big fancy name, but that was just the theme. It was beautiful, might I add. And huge. The resort had three floors and a humongus pool outside in which my niece, Cassie, had a blast playing in.
Our room was on the second floor. It had a balcony that overlooked the pool. It was beautiful.
So on our last day there, my husband was exausted. He decided to stay behind and relax in the room while I took Cassie to Blizzard Beach. (My brother and his wife werre having some fun at Paradise Island the night before, so they were dead to the world.)
Anthony said good-bye to Cassie and I after a nice breakfast.
Anthony went to the last hallway (we were really far from the desk) and slid his "key" in the door.
Nothing happened.
He did it again.
Again, nothing.
Now, Anthony had this problem once before and he was angry. He stormed all the way to the desk and stopped when he realized something.
He didn't go down any stairs.
And he didn't take an elevator.
Anthony was on the wrong floor. The poor guy at the desk looked terrified because it looked like Anthony was about to rip his head off. Anthony just turned red and said:
"I like your tie."
And turned away.

"I thought a cherib was a name for a baby cherry?"

Today is my favorite quotes day! The day I post my favorite quotes from people I love. :) And yes, I will include stories.

1) "I thought a cherub was a name for a baby cherry?" - Mimi Gonzales

Mimi is one of my best friends. In my English class my second year of college, someone said we were cute like little cherubs. Well, Mimi didn't understand a cherub was a winged baby who shoots arrows into people, so she immediately made the assumption it was a baby cherry.

2) "Ella! That guy is going to fall out of his truck!" -My brother Jeremy

We were driving in Virginia and a truck came in front of us on the highway. It had this huge picture of a man passing out boxes on it, making it look like the inside of a truck as well. My brother thought it actually was a man tossing out boxes to the freeway. :)

3) Throwing chairs, though fun, is frowned upon in most societies. -My high school quote.

Ok here's the story. I was in select chorus and it was my sophomore year. My chorus director was a funny guy, but he was passionate about music. One day, we just were having a really hard time coming on on a down beat and he was starting to get mad. When he got mad, he was really mad. Well we went to go in again and we were doing great then he did the beat wrong. He got so mad he took a chair and tossed it over. (it was just a little aluminum chair.) He yelled "IT WAS MEEEEEEE!" Lol it became a funny story after that. :)
