This is Lauren. 

Ans this is me. 

And we like Jesse McCartney.

Green Side of the Grass.

 Without fail, every time I get home, I get the giant anaconda squeeze from my main squeeze. I love this boy to no ends and I love love love being his sister. Makes me feel on top of the world.

 And then here's Lauren.

Parents Away...Kids'll Play.

 My folks have been outta town for the past two weeks and i've had the kids all to my self. We finally picked the rents up from the airport last night. But while they were away, we definately had our fair share of fun...From ASU games, mall trips, dinner to fancy restaurants (cost vida), and bike rides, we did it all. And had a blast. 

 Since Carsten has been playing Gilbert Pop Warner, I suprised him with tickets to the ASU game. He was super stoked...Or so I thought...

I guess the 7am call time for his game in North Scottsdale was too much football for one six year old to handle.

 We went with my our family friends the Crums and had a really good time. The beat Illinois by 38-13. Super good game.  

 And with the parents being gone, the procrastinated chore list was in full effect hours before they returned home. Xan is the best Gilbert farmer EVAR. 

 Sunday night, Terry and I ran over to Kelsey's to give her a card for and ended up snapping a few akward family photos with Jack and Tango. Walter White and Pinkman also showed up.

Change in the Weather and Tides

 Well its offish, Jess has left us for Hawaii. :( We all went over to her house the night before she left just talking and having a good time with the space bags. We miss you so much already J-nells. Be so so safe. Love you! 

 Carsten's first football game was on Saturday. They played superstition league and Won! He plays defensive lineman and does SO good. I've been taking him to practice every week and I love watching him do his best. He gives 100% to it even though he's one of the smallest. 

 Monday for Labor day, I took the kids to Scottsdale mall for a day of shopping. We did really good up until 2-ish. Then the meltdown's came and it was time to leave. BUT Jcrew and the Bath and Body Works Labor Day sale happened so we're good there.
