Alvin, Simon & Theodore

Today was Summer Movie Fun and we saw Alvin & the Chipmunks. It was really CUTE!

We almost didn't make it. We woke up really late, only had a few minutes to get ready, the girls were fighting as we went out the door, then Ashley had a melt down. I was not very pleased about it! We arrived right after the movie started, luckily we only missed a couple minutes (well me, the kids already saw it), and it wasn't crowded at all, so we got good seats up top. We made microwave popcorn & divided it up along with a box of runts. So, everyone had their own treats {aka breakfast of champions}! LOL

It was funny and we got to see some friends! I was feeling kinda icky because I didn't get a shower, hadn't washed my hair for several days (ok, since Sunday) and had to touch-up my leftover makeup. As we were leaving, I saw some other moms (who I didn't know) and realized that I wasn't the only one who probably rushed out the door without looking my very best. OK, I suddenly didn't feel too bad.

BTW - Ashley lost her 2nd front tooth just before bedtime Wednesday night. I'll post a pic later. She looks really cute & gummy! tee hee :)

I made my first potroast yesterday that I cooked for 3 hours but turned out like a thick steak. YUCK! I do NOT like steak! That's why I cook meat overnight on low heat when I want shredded beef! The potatoes & carrots turned out fabulous! So, when we got home today, I threw the rest of the pot roast (plenty leftover since we didn't eat much of it yesterday) into the crockpot and cooked it all afternoon. {my Mom's idea} It was heavenly by the time Ben got home for dinner! Thank goodness for crockpots and Moms who have the answers to everything! THANK YOU, MOM!!

Oh, I read some more of my book last night and now I'm half done. It's so good! I just love James Patterson! He's such an incredible author and storyteller!
