A big surprise for Wyatt

So I got a phone call from my brother in law today letting me know of a very special event. I rushed to the bathroom got ready in 10 min fumbled through Wyatt's closet for some special things and called the school to have him waiting in the office for a "doctors appointment".

The clueless little boy getting more and more excited by mom's laughter very patiently changed his shoes, re-gelled the hair, refreshed the deodorant and grab some gum with out pressing too much to get the "surprise" out of me.

As we pulled up to the Office Depot in Rancho Cucamonga his eyes were big as saucers! "No way mom!" "Is his car really here?" and "Oh my gosh" were the only things he could manage to say then as I said "Yup...and so is he" the hyper active boy froze speechless.....really he froze!

So off he goes on the best day of his life....

Then a photo with Tony's new team car...of course still supporting the #20...

Waiting in line....finally words in a whisper...."Mom I'm just so excited!"

Then this is what happens when you let the drunk lady behind you take the picture while you get your hat signed... Tony was only letting people take pictures as your rushed through but...

This is what happens when you're mother is the worlds greatest smoozer.... You get a private (minus his guys), behind the scene, after public signing, visit with Tony Stewart...

And he actually looks up to let you get a good picture....

Then a boys miracle happens...Tony Stewart asks your 11 year old speechless son to give him a hug...

Walking on cloud nine we stop for a quick photo with the old #20 car...

And there it is......reality hits and the boys gone mad with laughter and shock!!!

what a way to spend the day with your son! DREAMS DO COME TRUE.....if you make them!!

oh and a cool crafty mom side note.....I had him sign the scrapbook page I did of the first time I took Wyatt to a nascar race! Now that's not something you have in your scrapbooks to often!!! Great thinkin' I must say!

I still got it!! hehe

I had to get to the store to get something for breakfast this morning but I was feeling horrible so I threw on a sweatshirt and some tennis and ran out for a quick second. I hadn't even brushed my teeth yet because a new tooth brush was on my list since mine had an accidental rendezvous with the toilet and my hair was unbrushed and thrown in a pony tail. As I came out of the store an older gentleman was getting out of his car next to me that had these really cool head lights. I commented about them and he told me they made them for my truck too but I mentioned that they probably wouldn't look as good on my truck and you know what he said.....he said that as long as I was in it they would...I smiled and simply said thank you you just made my day!

I know we all love our husbands very much ladies but really once in a while when you haven't even brushed your teeth yet it's nice to know......YOU STILL GOT IT!!! =)

Weekend

So this weekend was a fun one indeed! Friday night I got everything all finished up for the ward valentine's parade breakfast the nest morning. Which by the way went perfectly! I wished the attendance had been higher but it looked like those that came had a great time and there was PLENTY to eat!! The parade was adorable and fun to say the least each family that participated really showed us what was important to them and how they love to LOVE!! Thanks to all that helped out and all that participated as well as our wonderful cheering crowds!

Anyway back to the weekend....so after I finished everything for the breakfast Friday night I started to work on a project for my brother in laws fiance's bridal shower that was Saturday afternoon. A pretty detailed project but nothing I couldn't get done in time....YEAH RIGHT!!! Everything went wrong!! This wouldn't stick to that or that didn't match this or this machine broke or that glue ran out! I finally gave up and decided if the breakfast went fast enough then I could work on it a few more hours before the shower....

Saturday: Wonderful morning as already mentioned.....then the horror!! I got to working on this project again but still no luck. Finally the prego emotions kicked in and my husband, son and mother who came to take Wyatt for the day all so very patiently listened and encouraged as I raged on and on about being the biggest failure at everything (because let's face it when you're pregnant and one thing goes that terribly wrong under pressure it truly feels like you've failed the whole world! hehe). Mom and Wyatt left and my husband picked up his broken wife and said how can I fix it.....Now I'm not sure that was a smart thing to say to me right at that very moment and in my hysteria I was shocked to find enough energy to bite my tongue and simply say buy me a stake dinner! HAHA definitely hysteria! At any rate long story short project never got finished and I told the bride to be who was 30 minutes from my house that I had forgotten her gift and would get it in the mail this week....needless to say I'm working on that today!

So then After the shower and my hubby and I realized we were really alone at about 6:45 he proceeds to tell me he had a surprise evening planned (mind you we were still in Alta Loma at this time). He told me he had made an appointment for a session at the redlands temple and then wanted to go out for desert. I started crying and the look on his face said man I screwed up again! Poor guy! I asked him why he wanted to do that and he said he thought about valentine's day and that love is what it's all about and the temple was the perfect place to share that with his wife. I told him that even though there was absolutely no way we would make the session in time that it was the best valentine's day surprise I could have ever dreamed of. After the relief hit him we ended up getting Quizno's and cuddled up in front of a movie. Happy Valentine's Day to me!!

Oh one little thing....first thing Saturday morning my son came in and woke me up with a balloon that said I love and a card he picked out himself that said you can be anything you want to be....what a wonderful boy I have!!

Anyway Sunday we enjoyed sacrament, relaxed and had a small birthday dinner for my 11 year old big boy!

And that was my weekend....wish i had picture to show all the fun and frustrating events but my little camera broke. Hopefully I'll get it fixed soon!

Just a little tid bit

So the boys are finally all better!! I was at the doctors last Monday getting meds for Wyatt who turned out to have bronchitis. Then Tuesday I come out of the bathroom to find my husband curled up in a shivering ball on the bed....still in work clothes! So wed. I was back at the doctors getting the same antibiotic for him! The reception lady even laughed and said weren't you just here yesterday?! So after having the two of them home for two days, Wyatt all last week and a very unexpected Monday holiday Tuesday I was beside myself with all the silence!! It was a much needed relief! I love my family but when all you hear every 20 minutes for a week is, "I need more orange juice" or "where's the cough drops" or my favorite "I'm still freezing!", you can only imagine the deep breath I took after dropping Wyatt off at school Tuesday morning! Then wed was a half day....figures! haha =)

Tomorrow I plan to get up and moving bright and early and make some real progress with Wyatt's room. I've been redecorating it for a while now. But hey not all of us can pull a Ty Pennington project in a week!! Let's just hope the baby belly is willing to cooperate with my early awakening!! I'll post picture's as soon as it's done! I wish some hadn't of misplaced my camera so I could have the whole before and after picture thing going but oh well. Bottom line is before it was a room with 4 white walls. After.....well you'll just have to wait and see!

Good Night!

Oh wait one more thing......T-6 days until we find out the sex of the baby!

Ok now really good night!
