These are a few of my FAVORITE things

Cereal: Wheaties

Fabric Softener: Downy April Fresh

Bath & Body Works Scent: Sensual Amber
MEN love it, they always ask me what it is I'm wearing

Dish Soap: Pink Grapefruit
(I buy it at Lowe's) Besides the fact that it's Pink, it smells amazing and helps me get the dishes finished.

Color: Green
Its the color of money! "The color of harmony and balance, Green symbolizes hope, renewal and peace, and is usually liked by the gentle and sincere. Greens are generally frank, community-minded people, fairly sociable but preferring peace at any price. Green people can be too self-effacing, modest and patient, so they may get exploited by others. They are usually refined, civilized and reputable." Click here to see what your favorite color says about you?

Vehicle: Lexus 330RX Hybrid, Silver please w/dark windows

Dinner: BBQ Ribs @ Texas Roadhouse

Dessert: Cherry Cheesecake

Movie: How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days
Two people accidentally fall in Love, isn't that what Love is all about? My favorite part is when Matthew McConaughey is having a guys night playing poker and Kate Hudson invites herself then runs over to the table with a Kleenex and tells him to "blow" his nose!

Season: Spring
Oh how I love thee when the temperature starts to rise and we thaw from the cold winter months. The earth turns green and the neighborhood is filled with laughter as children run and play together.

Holiday: Thanksgiving
I am delicious, I love that I get the day off from work and it doesn't take as much time, money or work as Christmas. Plus on Christmas I only get the kids every other year.

Flavor: Vanilla

Appetizer: Chips n Salsa
If I had to live off one thing for the rest of my life.. I would be happy with this!

Soda: Mountain Dew
Mountain Dew exhilarates and quenches with its one of a kind great taste.

Flower: White Wild Daisy
It's simple, timeless and classic

Stone: Amber

Shoes: Roxy flip flops My favorite flip flops are Roxy Beach Flip Flops, the Balboa model. I love these because they help me be a little taller, are incredibly comfortable, and are actually pretty cute.

Vacuum: Dyson Animal
Well number one, its purple and number two because I got it for a killer deal at Lowe's but I can't get the hose to work correctly so I don't know about it being on my favorite list.

Card Game: Phase 10
This game is fun to me, I can't think of why right now because I haven't played it in years

Board Game: Pictionary
Ok so this is another game I'm good at, so I like it

Wii Game: Smarty Pants
I win my children at this game and it makes me look really smart!

Fast Food: Rumbi Island Grill
Sweet Potato french fries, Kahlua pork, and macaroni salad, coconut rice.. mnnnn bet you wish you had some right now?

Music: Dance
Boosts my mood and gives me energy, Just Dance!

Ice Cream: Peppermint & Almond Praline
What is up with Dreyer's new containers for their ice cream? They are much smaller and I don't think its fair that we pay the same price but get to devour less substance.

Wood Finish: Dark Walnut
No yellow or red in the wood

Sport: Badminton
It doesn't require much coordination :)

Art: Photography
Since I have a bad memory I take a lot of pictures. It's something you will have forever and it doesn't cost much. I also like interior design but hate to see so much money go to waste when styles come and go so quickly.

Store: Macy's
You can find just about anything there, I love the idea of one stop shopping and they have great clearance sales!

State: Hawaii
It's always warm and there is a serene feeling when you are at the beach. Paradise

Jewelry: My silver ring.
I used to snag my cathedral style wedding ring on fabric and scratch my kids accidentally. I decided a band was more practical and the style I like is a vintage silver. Not into big gaudy diamonds at all.

Gas Station: Common Cents
The ice is small and its not quite rock hard, plus they have light lemonade so I can have a calorie free cold drink and munch on the ice.

Game Show: Wheel of Fortune or Price is Right

Sports Team: Utah Jazz

Book: Twilight
First of all, who thinks up these weird things? When I first heard about the book I thought I wouldn't like it at all because I am usually drawn to stories with fictional characters and if something doesn't seem realistic I think its a waste of time. I bought the book for my Mom for Christmas in '07 since there was a long line of people buying it at a bookstore. She was driving the alcan and would need some reading material. After telling me about it I still wasn't convinced but read it anyway just to see what the hype was about. I liked it.

Fruit: Watermelon

Animal: Fish
You can eat them, and as a pet they don't stink or messy up your house

Drink: Pina Colada & Lemon Drop

Website: www.Picnik.com (that is where you make the photo collage)

Jeans: Tight/Form fitting with a little stretch and dark wash

Candy Bar: Almond Joy
The coconut and almonds melt in your mouth!

Bradda's and Sista's are the LAW

It's nice growing up with someone like you:

someone to lean on
someone to count on
someone to tell on!

That's How We Go!

I'm in love, FINALLY! No, No, not with a guy.. my car! It's so much fun to drive and the stereo system is GREAT, plus it has a jack for my ipod touch!

10 YEARS OLD

DEAR KALEN,
Here you are on your first birthday, Mom and Dad thought you were the coolest thing that ever happened to us (still are). We wanted to have a big Luau to celebrate your FIRST special day with all of our extended family and friends. For months before your birthday I would light candles and have you practice blowing it out. In fact your first word was "hot"! You are so lucky to have Grandma and Grandpa Compehos, the food they make is the BEST ever, they brought your favorite Kahlua Pork and Gma Cindy's famous macaroni salad to your party. Aunt Shelia made some delicious fried noodles and that's all I remember right now.I know everyone says this when their kids get older but really, how did 10 years go by so fast? Our Kalen Ryan is one year older today and wiser, kinder, and stronger. Kalen I just want you to realize what a JOY you are in all of our lives. Everyone who knows you, tells me how much they enjoy you and how much fun you are.

I am THANKFUL you were sent from HEAVEN to be my FIRST born SON.

I wish..

"Mom I wish I had your hair and your face" my daughter says to me. "What about my booty?" I questioned her. "NO WAY! I don't want a big booty like yours."

Ever since I dyed my hair platinum blond on the top and darker on the bottom my daughter Rylee and my niece Kenna wants their hair dyed blond too. So I took Rylee to get some highlights but the lady who did it was cautious and it didn't show up very much. I added some more myself and will continue to add a little bit here and there. We always wish we were a little different, if you hair is curly you want straight, vise-versa.

My Mom's Birthday is 2.3.55

A mother is someone who loves you
Who cares for you in every way
She sits down and listens to what you have to say

She always thinks your beautiful
Never puts you down
She always has a smile
To wipe away your frown

A mother is someone who believes in you
Always pushes you to go far
Tells you to believe in yourself
No matter who you are

A mother is like an angel
Although without the wings
She tells you to enjoy
Life's most smallest things

I really love my mother
She means so much to me
Mommy I really love you
And that's how it always will be.

My Latest Investment

There were too many good things about this purchase, I just couldn't pass it up!

Have you been to Lowe's lately? Well let me tell you.. I am there quite a lot.. and I LOVE IT! lol During my interview for my job they asked me why I wanted to work there. I answered that it's where I want to spend all my money! I think they hired me for that reason. jk

So today I asked my favorite manager to help me pick a washer and give me a good deal. We got it down to a little above cost for many reasons.. the store is not going to stock the silver color anymore (just the white) so it was on clearance! Whenever items at Lowe's are on clearance you can get them next to nothing because we really just want them out the door. Then I find out I get two rebates, a $75.00 one from the power company and $75.00 from the Gas company. It gets better folks! FREE DELIVERY to your home and they install it too. Done deal, write me up an invoice. OHHHH and did I mention that I put it on a 12 mo. same as cash? SWEET deal baby, I have the next two days off and delivery will be in the morning. Guess what I will be doing? If you guess Laundry you are wrong. FIRST I have to clean my laundry room because the delivery guys I work with are coming in my house and that calls for a white glove cleaning! Better get to work!
