friday again already???

I can't believe how quick the week has gone by, It's seems like just yesterday, I was counting down to Vegas, been home almost 3 weeks. Then was the New Moon count down, it's been a week already???

I am a little afraid, I am really prepared for Christmas...I only have a few gifts left to buy, I am more than 50% wrapped up. The Christmas cards will be finished and put in the mail by the end of the weekend, YIKES...It always causes me concern when I am this prepared...LOL

I mean dont get me wrong, I try to be organized and such but WOWZERS...I am really prepared this year. I actually feel like I am in control for once and not just here for the ride. It is a powerful feeling! If only I could feel this passionate about get the laundry under control...LOL

I hope everyone has a great weekend and enjoy those around you and give thanks for the small things!

Thanksgiving...



Thankful Thursday falls on the best day...Thanksgiving! My house smells like yummy turkey and stuffing, yes I am aware I am canadian...but I am so thankful we celebrate it tiwce in our house.

I wasn't gonna do it this year, I didnt realize how much my family loves it. My hubby says to me so...are you makign turkey tomarrow for thanksgiving? I replied with I can if you guys want and it was an overwhelming response for me too...so I happily agreed!

In yrs past, I would take the girls out of school and I would call in sick. We would make cookies and watch the Macy's Day Parade. But this year I sent the girls to school and PVR'd the macy's day parade and choose to eat dinner and watch the parade while Kevin watchs football! Maybe next year we will return to the past tradition....Only time will tell.

Happy Thanksgiving To all and Enjoy your family and Friends and make sure they all know how much you really care and love them! Be blessed!

Chloe...aka..Jenette "Chipette" Miller


I have offically heard everything...I think.

So for those of you who are unaware, I am not the only Cayer who has obsessions. We all do. Chloe has been very in to Alvin and the Chipminks for a very long time, year and a half perhaps. Well today she made an offical announcement...

" My name is no longer Chloe, my name is...Mommy, what's the chipette's name that wears glasses just like me?" I respond with Jenette, she says... "Thats right Mommt!!!...I knew you would know my real name...."

I love that she has so much confidence in me!! Again...These are the things that make it all worth it!!! Go hug a kid, They'll love it!!!

5. Nola's Peanut butter cup cakes.

6. Chloe's fever breaking.

7. My new Snowman holiday picture from my Mom.

8. Wearing only a hoodie in November!!

Things that did not give me pure joy...

1. Being squished and dragged by 100's of screaming girl all trying to get into New Moon.

2. The silly placed pole I slightly hit trying to get out of the banks parking lot.

3. The cost of Popcorn at the movies.

4. The laundry I still choose not to do, but complained yet again when I had nothing to wear.

5. The crabby sales lady @ my favorite scrapbooking store!

6. Tween Attitude

8. Falling asleep while watching tv and then waking up grumpy!

I finished a scrapbook

I did it! In 7 years a task i could never complete! I completed my ABC's of disney. I love it, it is a 8 x 8 album, made it super quick and easy. It was much easier to sort through thousands of pict with an agenda. I love it! Will add pics soon!






This is me and my very cute, now 30 year old hubby. This was our first night in Vegas, We checked in freshened up and went directly to Maragritaville, a Jimmy Buffett line of eatery's which are super fun. We ate good, drank 60 bucks worth of buckets o beer, and dance to Jesse's girl!! It was so fun!! It htink i would then just visit maragritaville 4 more times, handy it was in our hotel...LOL


This is a a photo of me infront of the hotel sign where we stayed. I loved our hotel. Donny and Marie were our headlining show, I wanted to see it so bad, but it was sold out the whole time we were there.

I hope this is formating correctly, I am trying to do picture then caption and so on...if not sorry..that what I was trying to do...scroll up and down...LOL

Next photo is a shot of Paris, I would love to stay there, I so wanted to go to the top and catch a veiw but we just ran out of time. Hard to budget everything in when you travel in a group. There was a resturant ant the bottom called mon ami gabby, it was situated right acrossed from the Billagio, which has the fountain show...that resturant id on the top of my to do list next time.

The next photo is of me and Jeff Gordon, we went to Madame Tuxsaudeswax museum, it was so much fun! some of the wax people are amazing!! there was onlt like 3 out of like 200 that look chessey!

just a little glimpse! I promise a few more...there are only 5000...LOL

New Moon

3 more sleeps everyone, it's only 3 more sleeps away! I remember when the count down was 150 sleeps and now we are a mere 3 sleeps away! Team Edward( me and a few other lucky gals) is present and accounted for and will be chauffering the team Jacob (Trina and her pack) to and from the Movie as well. Team Edward will win I have no fear...LOL I am their ride home...hee hee! Just saying! Just think...225 more sleeps until June 30, 2010 and Eclispe will be here! Happy counting down!

Funny how I am a 31 year woman and I count down to things more than any child I know...LOL I will never grow apparently :)

12.11.09

Well...I am back!!

That was the quickest 6 days of my life. It is amazing there, I love how nothing sleeps, encluding the the card flickers. For those of you who have not been to Vegas they are hoards of people giving out porn trading card, which are hooker bussiness cards, they slap them annoyingly then shove them in your face. LOL. The lights glow brightly and sounds never give up. I love it! The city itself is intoxicating, I am clearly counting down to the next trip, to complete my to do list. I LOVE VEGAS!!!

The pure cheesy meets classiness of Vegas it what gets me. I just love it. The best way I can describe it is... It's like a redneck women who dreams to own a Louis Vuiton bag. Speaking of LV, I visted the store, very impressed by the super sales women, whom nearly had me making a very wise investment for my first purchase, a mere 995.99USD would have made me the proud mother to a very cute LV hand bag, it was double stitched and a everything, did you know your LV hand bag has a life time satisfation claimer when you buy it, as long as the inside is in good shape you just bring it in and BANG hello new LV hand bag! Needless to say but I am not a new invester this time...But the cute Kate Spade bag for $295, seemed like a steal after that...LOL

I saw a few shows while there, not as many as i would have liked, but leaves something to do the next time I go back! We finally saw Leanne Rimes, the last two or three times we were to see her she was a no show but she did not disappoint, she showed up and put on a good show! I am glad Nik finally got to see her, she loves her! I was very pleased with the show. Unlike the Blueman group which I hated!! I fell alsleep shortly after they began spitting capt'n Crunch at the audiance. THat was more than enough for me only to be woke but hoards of massive rolls of toilet paper being dumped on my head, which you had to push forward. Had I been a man or young child the grossness of the show may have had some appeal but for this girl, I just want the show to be over and wished I had put that 70 bucks to better use, like investing in LV...lol

The hotel was nice, but to our dsimay they shut the heat off in the pool as off Nov 1 and close the area everday at 4 pm so we definitly didn't get much use of the area. I am sure in the summer it is beautiful! We had a Go room one night, very fun, the mirrors on the celing were a little wacky as the purpose of mirrors on a celing was lost by the gaudy 70's lights incased in the fixture...lol I love the TV in the mirror in the bathroom...Nice touch! We then were relocated to our regular room which was not as flashy but I quite enjoyed having a lounge area in our room so all in all the veiw not as nice as it was from the 25th floor but the space made up for it!

I loved the Treasure Island's free outdoor Call of the Siren's show! Fabulous!! Chessy and completely unapproperiate for kids, thank goodness they couldn't get the jokes and only really get the basic story line...My favorite line was "I love salty seamen"...LMAO Only in Vegas!!! :) One of the many reasons I will not be bringing the girls to Vegas, ever perhaps! The fountain show @ the Belaggio was amazing, The first complete show I saw was to Viva Las Vegas, which couldn't be more perfect for me...I love Elvis!! Beautiful!

Well there was so much to see so much to do and I didnt even clear half of the to do list but it's all the more reason to go back!! I dont know when, I think I know where, but the count down and the penny saving has begun!! I will post pic's very soon!
