Ditch the workout! Join the party!

That is what I did tonight! Went to a Zumba class with Cori, Michelle, Christel & Shelly. It was a blast! There were some funky moved that I am not sure the public should see me do..... but I have to say I have some new moves for our Halloween party this year!!

What is up in the Rowden world?

I cannot belive I have not posted in so long...... not sure why? I have been busy. Lets see quick list:
*Played bunco Friday- won most bunco's & drank my yummy, yummy wine that I got in Leavenworth! Even Cori liked it......
*Toni came to town.....we had dinner at El Sombrero (I am not sure I can ever eat there again, it is just bad, bad)
*Finally watched 'The Dark Knight'. Heath Ledger was amazing in that movie and I cannot figure out how writers can come up with the ideas that do in these movies. Crazy. But Heath was so great!
*I also finally saw the movie 'SAW'- not bad at all.... 'The Hostle' was much worse......
*Bought a bunch of new songs from I tunes- my I pod is so AWESOME now!
*I only have a few pages left in both of the kids Disney/California Adventure albums- only took me a year! LOL!
*Also, I am taking Ashlyn to the Taylor Swift concert- hope she loves her first concert experience.
*Ashlyn is tap dancing in her schools talent show on Friday.
* I was one of the other million ladies in the world that bought the movie 'Twilight'

Ok that is all I can think of at the moment- kinda tired......

At my finest

Ok this is hilarious.... I was just reading through blogs as I am waiting for the ceiling to dry in our dining room so I can do another coat. Anyway, I stumbled on to Teresa Collins blog and she had a fun lil tag. Of coarse she looks beautiful as always and you will now see me at my finest and painted on..........normally I do not get THIS messy looking when I paint but as I was painting the ceiling using a large painting rod at the end of my roller..... the darn thing broke in half and the roller landed on my head so I have a nice tint of white. Pretty cute huh?!

Tim Holtz wanna-be

I attempted my first Tim Holtz techniques tonight..... my friend Tina got me a bunch of Tim Holtz product for my birthday and I finally had some time to play. I tell ya the man is a creative GOD! I do not know how he comes up with his techinque ideas AND makes it all look so darn easy to do. Yes, the products are easy to use once you watch a few of his demo videos- but my attempts are blah compared to his beautiful-ness. I used some distress inks, perfect pearls, my mini mister, Tim Holtz stamps, alcohol ink, grungeboard & crackle paint. The pictures are not that great, they actual do look pretty neat in person...........

Busy Saturday

I woke up early this morning to get some OT in before Jeff had to head to work. And now the last few hours I have been cleaning out the kids' rooms. Have to get ready my yearly yard sale and Ashlyn wants an 'update' to her room, something more grown up so she needs to weed out a lot of stuff. She does not want to let go of things too easily. Jayton on the other hand is throwing things left & right into the sell box. Total opposites!
As you can see I have been playing around with look of my blog. The House of 3 has a ton of blog backgrounds you can purchase and headers for CHEAP-CHEAP & they are totally my style! Right now the one I have is a freebie during their open house, so I figured what a great chance to play with it until I can decide on some to purchase.
Well, enough of a break for now, back to the work of cleaning.............uuugghhh!

under construction..............

...........please be patient while I play with my blog. Working on getting my title on here. Stay tuned!
