Thank you, Jesus!

Kate GOES home...FINALLY!

She will be welcomed by her 8 children, who she said "love to watch her on DWTS".
 After all, she was doing it all for them.
Meanwhile, they were being cared for by their nanny.
All the while, she was wasting our viewing time on DWTS with her
whines
complains

and horrible dancing 


Does she look possessed in that one?

Tony is one of the nicest professionals on DWTS and she got him to walk out on her. 



I guess we know one thing she's good at...being a bitch which I won't say, because I don't talk like that.

Kate deserved to go home a long time ago, Buzz Aldrin was putting in more effort and hard work than she was...and I never saw him roll his eyes...not even once!








Who would you choose for a partner?  Hmmm?
I'm normally not a hater, but this chick works my nerves in the worst way. 

Who is your favorite star left on DWTS? 
Also, who do you predict will win this season...if your guess is right, there will be a PRIZE waiting for you at the end of the season!

Forbes (non) Ficitional Fifteen

Forbes Magazine named Dr. Carlisle Cullen as the wealthiest man in America.
In the Forbes (non)Fictional 15, The 307 year old vampire is listed number one (we already knew this) and worth 34.1 million.  He credits his millions to years of hard work, saving for centuries (literally), and smart plays in the stock market with the help of his "intuitive" daughter, Alice.

He's handsome, smart, immortal, AND rich!

I love YOU, Daddy Warbucks Dr. Cullen...adopt me please!

Bon Jovi Pics!

The Bon Jovi concert was AMAZING!! I had the best time and I didn't get arrested, so that was good. :) I also didn't get to make contact with Jon, but it was still a supa fun time. The meanies at the front door wouldn't let me take my good camera into the concert...no, I had to walk it four hundred blocks back to my car and settle for my measley Kodak...which ran out of battery power 30 minutes into the show...thank God for my iPhone. What would I have done without any pictures to document THE Bon Jovi concert? I probably would have just stole some of my friends pics and claimed them for my own borrowed some, but I'm sucha picture freak and I needed my own.

Here's a slideshow of the pictures that I took (not great quality, but the fun level makes up for it).

One more thing before you leave, I found a totally adorable Twilight blog called Trixie and Tess Tell All. They are new to the blogging scene and they're trying to build up some followers and blog traffic. We all know what that's like...been there, done that. They are hosting a giveaway right now and it includes some fabulous New Moon stuff (like a NM DVD, tshirt, and lots of other goodies). Go check it out! Pretty please! You can tell them I sent you. :) Here's the link to the giveaway (CLICK HERE) and here is a link to a couple of really cute and funny posts they have this week (CLICK HERE and HERE).

Hope you guys are having a great week!!♥

Did you ever?

Did you ever have a crush on this guy? 
                
Ever?
Be honest.

Well, I did.
I'm pretty sure it was around 1990-ish and he looked a little more like this...

And it was all thanks to a song that goes a little something like this...

I'll be there for you
These five words I swear to you
When you breathe I want to be the air for you
I'll be there for you
I'd live and I'd die for you
Steal the sun from the sky for you
Words can't say what a love can do
I'll be there for you

You're singing along now aren't you?  It'll be stuck in your head for the rest of the day...you can thank me later. :)  I'll be at the Bon Jovi concert tonight.  If I get close enough for a kiss (oh please oh please oh please), I'll be sure to give him one for you too, k?  I already ran this one by Michael and he's seems to be ok with it...he was rambling something about how it'll never happen I have his full permission or something like that.  He also said that if I get arrested he's not coming to bail me out and he advised me to take an extra bra in case I get an urge to toss mine up on stage.  I pay way too much for these things to toss one up on stage I'm way more mature than that.  Although, I could write my phone number on it...

How big do you think his body guards will be?

Um, if you don't hear from me tomorrow, could you guys start taking up a collection for some bail money?

307

So, today's post is #307.  I had planned to do something grand when I hit the big 300 mark, but with my busy schedule as of late, I didn't get around to it.  I looked back through my blog and was reminiscing on how all of this came to be...it was a nice trip down memory lane.  I originally started this blog because a few friends from Cafemom had transferred their daily rants over here to the blog world.  I touched a toe in the waters on May 29, 2008. 
My first blog post was short and sweet...to be honest, it was a lame excuse for a first blog post.  I was a little nervous.  I had been to blogs that had tons of followers, people they did NOT know in real life, and they were reading everything they wrote.  It seemed like a violation of privacy...it seemed CRAZY!  I wasn't sure what I wanted to write that I was willing to let the whole world (ok, not really because at the time I had NO followers) read.  So, fast forward to June, I was starting to get into the groove of this blog thing.  You just write whatever is in your head for the day.  I have lots of voices things in my head.  Surely I could come up with something interesting to talk about.  My first attempt at that was a blog I wrote about changes taking place in our family at that time...it was important to me...something I needed to get off my chest, it felt good.  I liked this blog thing, kind of like an online journal or diary.  I could do this.  I had been writing in a diary or a journal for years, so it started to get a little easier...feeling a little more natural with each post.  I can't remember when I got my first follower, but I'm pretty sure it was one of my sweet endearing friends from Cafemom who took pity on me and clicked the little follow button out of compassion.  Thank you!  I had no idea how good that would feel to have followers and get comments.  I had no idea that sweet words from "virtual friends" would mean so much.  I had no idea that I would turn some of those virtual friends into REAL-LIFE-flesh-and-blood-honest-to-goodness-FRIENDS.  So cool.  I ♥ blogging.

I know today my blog is a lot different than it was in May of 2008.  I've found some new obsessions interests, taken some new journeys, made lots of new friends, I have more than 3 followers, and I talk about Twilight...a lot lots of random things.  I know I probably drive you guys crazy with my passion for certain things...*achem*...and people.  I know that sometimes you guys don't get me, but I'm totally cool with that.  I'm just glad you stick around.  I would love to meet each and everyone of you in person someday.  I've formed bonds with so many of you...over various common interests.  So, as a way of saying "thanks for reading my ramblings and putting up with my nonsense", I would like to do a fun giveaway...not Twilight related...I know...SHOCKER!  (Ok, perhaps if the person who wins the giveaway is a Twilight fan I could throw in a little somethin' somethin'.)  The giveaway is just going to be a collection of some of my favorite pampering items, since most of my readers are girls, I figured you guys would enjoy them as well!

Here's how to enter:
  • Leave a comment - this is good for one entry.
  • Become a follower - this is good for one entry. (If you're already a follower, you'll get two extra entries.)
  • Re-post about the giveaway on your blog - this is good for two entries.
  • Re-post about the giveaway on Facebook or Twitter - this is good for one entry.
The giveaway will end on April 13th at noon.  I will use the Random Number Generator to select the winner and post it the next day!  Stop by tomorrow and I'll have a picture of all the things included in the giveaway.

Hope you're all having a great day!♥

Friend Makin' Monday - Easter Edition

Amber at {aefilkins} wants us to tell about our favorite part of Easter for this weeks FMMs.

Well, my favorite part of Easter was...ALL of IT!  We had the best day. 

I had lots of fun stuff planned for my kiddos at church.  We talked about Jesus' crucifixtion, death, and resurrection while we made Resurrection Cookies...each ingredient represents a part of the Easter story.  It was very effective.  Then we had an indoor Easter Egg Hunt.  The kids loved it.  They each had to find the eggs with their name on it.
After church, we had lunch and an Easter Egg Hunt at my Granny's.  I love my family.  There is always good food, good conversation, good music, and fun times.
Hope everyone had a HAPPY EASTER!

John 3:16 "For God so LOVED the world that he gave His ONE and ONLY Son.  That whosoever believes in HIM shall NOT perish, but have EVERYLASTING LIFE!"  My Redeemer Lives!

Friend Makin' Monday - I ♥ SPRING!

1. Favorite things about Spring:  What is NOT to love about spring...newness, rebirth, green, blooms, fresh dirt, gardening, being outdoors.
2. What I'm doing for Spring Break:  We just had Spring Break.  Isaiah hung out with me at work most of the time.  We went to some of our favorite restaurants and hang out spots.  Friday we went to the Aquarium.  It was fun!

3. Favorite Spring flower: daffodils

4. Do you have a garden? Yes, a flower garden.  I'm wanting to till up a vegetable garden out at my mom and dad's farm this year.  I get the feeling that I'm a little behind, but I think I'll go ahead and give it a try.  This year's harvest may not be the best, but it will be a start.
5. If so, what do you grow. In my flower garden, I usually have petunias, begonias, vincas, and verigated grasses.  When I eventually plant a real garden, I'll definitely plant cucumbers, potatoes, onions, corn, green beans and beets...oooooo, and strawberries.

6. Do you do Spring cleaning?  Yes, usually.  At the very least, I do spring organizing and purging. 

7. What is your weather *really* like right now? {Just b/c it's "officially" spring, doesn't mean that it feels like it for some of you}  Well, yesterday and Saturday were just plain dreary...snow, blowing cold winds, ice.  Yuck.  However, today is a whole new story, 60's and sunshine!  Hello, Spring!
8. Snapped any weather related photos lately? Share one with us!
Happy FIRST Day of Spring!

9. What's your favorite thing to do on a sunny afternoon? take a walk, play at the park with Isaiah, soak up some natural vitamin d...a total mood booster.

10. Favorite TV show right now?  Ugly Betty.  I'm so sad that it's in the final season.  Boo.

I hope everyone is having a better Monday than me.  Tuesday has GOT to be better. ♥
Go see Amber for more FMMs!!

New Moon Party Tips and Last Minute Ideas

We all know what today is, right?  Friday.  Right, good answer.  There's something else though.

New Moon DVD Release?!?!  Ding, ding, ding.  Tell her what she's won!

So, I thought there might be some of you out there planning a last minute New Moon shindig and that you might need some last minute ideas and tips.  I've compliled a collage from my New Moon Party that I hosted last year before the midnight premiere.  I'm going to try to link you up to some quick and easy party ideas (highlighted in RED). 

  1. If you party is further down the road, like in the next couple of weeks, it's still not too late to send out some invites and set the tone for your party.  If you're wanting to do a party on the fly, then just text/e-mail some friends and tell them the when, where, what time, etc. (Links to invitation ideas - go HERE and HERE)

  2. Plan your menu, even if you're just having chips and dip, you need to know what you're going to have so you can be prepared (and possibly ask your fellow twi-hards to chip in)! (Links to recipes - go HERE and HERE)

  3. Plan your outfit!  That's one of the most fun parts!  Get creative, but remember that you'll want to be comfortable.

  4. Create some cute and original decorations/centerpieces.  Give your guests something to talk about while they're eating their mushroom ravioli or sipping their vampire martini soda. (For ideas - click HERE or HERE)

  5. Have some goodies for your friends to take home!  Everybody loves some swag! (Ideas?  Click HERE and HERE )

  6. See Above

  7. See Above

  8. Create a Candy Bar - your guests will love it!  Plus, it goes perfectly with movie viewing...you can't have a movie party without some chocolate and candy to munch on!  (See what I put on my Candy Bar HERE)

  9. Invite lots of friends!

  10. Especially these guys!  (HERE is where you can order your very own Life-Size Edward and Jacob)

  11. One of my favorite places to go to for printable quotes from the movie and general party planning ideas is The Hostess with the Mostess - love her!!  Click HERE for her site.

  12.  Play some fun games - like Pin the Kiss on Edward or Pin the Kiss on Jacob!  We had so much fun!  Just buy a large poster and print out some kissy lips on address labels.  Play like pin the tail on the donkey - blind fold guests, give them a lips sticker, spin them, and let them go!  Whoever is closest to those kissable lips wins a prize.  You HAVE to have prizes!

  13. Every New Moon party needs Edward and Jacob paper plates - available right now at Wal-Mart, Target, and many many on-line shops.  Take your pick!  I bought some last weekend just for safe keeping.  You never know when you'll need them.

  14. Set the mood for your party with some fun twilight-ish decorations.  Make your guests feel like they're in Forks. 

  15. Lots of balloons...and red, black, and gold.

  16. Don't forget to kick up your feet and enjoy!
For TONS of fabulous Twilight/NewMoon/Eclipse party ideas, go visit Tara's Twilight Party!

Hope everyone is having a great week!♥

MiMi said...


OHMANOHMANOHMAN...I'm having a small heart thing right now looking at all this awesome stuff.

Jacob on a bookmark...I don't have that, I could sleep with that....in my pillow. Sweet dreams...ahh.

I'm weird. Okay, I'll stop now. But not in my head. I want.

March 12, 2010 10:42 AM

Mimi and I share great laughs and conversations over our beloved Jacob and Edward.  I know that she'll LOVE getting a package of Twilight goodness.  It's so funny because most of the items in the giveaway lean toward the Wolf Pack and we know that Mimi's boyfriend is part of the Wolf Pack...coincidence?  I think not.  It was FATE!  Congrats, Mimi! :) I'll be sending you an e-mail shortly to get your address!!
 
ALSO, just a friendly reminder from your local Twi-hard...

EEEeeeeeeee!!!! 

Can I just say that I am SO excited!  I can hardly wait to have that DVD in my hand and at my disposal.  I even bought some more Edward and Jacob paper plates.  I'm not sure what I'm going to use them for just yet, but I know I'll think of something.  I did kind of get called out by my 6 year old neice as I was tossing them in the shopping cart.  She says, "Aunt Jenny, don't you already have some of those?"  I say, "why yes, Gracie, I do."  She says, "Soooo why are you buying more."  I say, "MYOB because I might run out and that wouldn't be good...you should always have an ample supply of Edward and Jacob paper plates."  She just giggled.  She knows her Aunt Jenny is crazy.  My cousin, Allison, and I are going to our local Border's for their DVD release party.  Any guesses on how many people over the age of 18 will be there...besides us?

Oh, and one last notable thought...I just posted my 300th post!  Crazy?!  Why, yes it is.  I can't believe I've made 300 blog posts.  So, come back and see me next week for another giveaway!

Eclipse Sneek Peek

Have you seen this 2 minute sneek peek of Eclipse?

This gets me so pumped for the movie...and I can't wait to see the 8 minute clip that is on the New Moon DVD deluxe edition from Wal-Mart!  So excited!  However, I'm trying to pull myself back from the edge a little.  I don't want to know too much.  I still want to be surprised and experience Eclipse for the first time on the big screen.  With New Moon, I felt like I had practically seen the movie before it ever came out, because I had watched so many trailers and teasers and behind the scenes footage.

A few things that bring me great delight:
  • Jasper's hair...looks soooooo much better than New Moon!
  • Rosalie's hair...looks 10 times better than Twilight and New Moon put together.
  • Seeing the newborn vampires...lots of action in this 3rd movie and it's going to be thrilling to watch!
  • The sets/scenes look phenomenal
  • Edward and Jacob's level of hottness...can I get an AMEN up in this blog?!
  • I can't wait to see what David Slade brings to the Saga!
Don't forget to go and enter my giveaway (sorry, Mimi...I forgot I was supposed to keep it on the down low.)  Click HERE to enter.  Who is going to pick up their New Moon DVD at midnight Friday night?? (besides me)  I might have another giveaway coming up next week and it might have to do with said New Moon DVD.  Stay tuned.

THE Official Twilight Convention - ATL 2010...AND Eclipse Trailer!!

There is SO much excitement in Twi-land!  Have you seen the Eclipse teaser and/or trailer yet??
For those who haven't...don't waste any more time...Here's the TRAILER...(Feel free to watch it as much as you want...I don't charge for parking. :)

OHMYTWILIGHTGOODNESS (OMTG...from here on out)!!!  How exciting is that?  Goosebumps?  Check.  Elevated blood pressure?  Check.  Tear in eye?  Check. (Quit judging me...it's emotional!)  Edward just saying her name at the beginning is enough to get me, and then you throw Jacob's bit in there "I'll fight for you until your heart stops beating"....holy smokes, does it get any sweeter than that?  Oh, to be Bella Swan for a day...a girl can dream.

Who wants to talk Twilight Convention?  Me!  I do!  I do!

Most asked questions...

Was it fun?  Hmmmm.  Let me check.  DUH!  Let's just say that it was beyond fun...it was amazing...I need to invent a new word for how fun it was.

Would I do it again?  That would be a yes!  I'm hooked.  When's the next one?  Sign me up!

Would I get Gold Package again?  Absolutely, YES!  It was well worth it.  We were on the 4th row and it was easy to get great pictures.  We also had tickets to all of the extras.  It was nice to be first in line for autographs.  I would definitely go gold again.

What was the best part?  It's just too hard to choose...but the highlights are meeting all seven stars.  I went in being so super excited to meet Peter Facinelli (which was amazing...if I say "amazing" one more time, just change my name to Jake and put me on the Bachelor), and it was definitely a highlight...probably at the top of the list.  He is so down to earth and super funny.  I was just hanging on every.single.word.he.said.  What I thought was interesting was that I was excited to see each star because of the role they play in the Twilight Saga, but I left being a personal fan.  I love each and every one of them for who they are and not just for the role they play.  Does that make sense? 

My most memorable conversation was with Michael Welch (Mike Newton).  It was at the end of a long day and we were waiting in line for his autograph.  We were having fun conversations with all the people we were standing in line with and goofing off.  So, by the time we got to the table to get our autograph, we were being silly and cutting up (which is right up his alley...he is SUCH a clown!).  I was telling him how good his coffee smelled...and how I wish I had some Starbucks about right now.  We hadn't ate ALL day.  (One of the prices you pay to be at Twi Con...we referred to it as the Twi Con Diet...everybody should try it. =P)  So, he starts sipping on his coffee...really slowly...savoring each sip.  All the while, we're just standing there waiting on our autograph.  I told him how unfair it was and that he was basically a punk (yeah, I might of said those exact words...while laughing, of course).  THEN, he offers me a drink of his coffee!  I thought he was joking at first, but after us discussing the fact that I don't have cooties, I realized that he was being completely serious.  I wouldn't do it because I thought he would probably just throw it away after I walked off...but now I'm not sure that he would of, he's pretty crazy like that.  I told him I couldn't see a good cup of coffee go to waste...that is just wrong.  We had a good laugh.  It was fun interacting with him.

Gil Birmingham (Billy Black) is from Texas, and being the big time Sooner fans that my cousin Lindsay and I are, we decided we needed to find out if he was a UT (Longhorns) fan.  I would like to assure that he is NOT.  Whew, what a relief.  Funny thing was that he didn't even know who we were talking about.  He's not a football fan.  We told him we wouldn't hold it against him.

An unexpected surprise was the cast of the internet phenom Hillywood Show.  They were so super cool and played their roles so well!  Sometimes I felt like I was looking at THE Jacob or THE Jasper...they were so so good.  Hilly and Hannah are amazing talents.  They're geniuses at this parody stuff.  You should check them out online.  You can find them at http://www.thehillywoodshow.com/ !

I collected a few things while at the Convention to giveaway...how does a little Twilight Convention/New Moon Giveaway sound???  Come back tomorrow for a peak at what I have to give away and the details on how to enter!

To see all of my pictures from The Official Twilight Convention Atlanta 2010, go to my facebook page - www.facebook.com/jennykate77 .  I have my pictures set to public for now or you can just send me a friend request if you would like!
(I have a whole album dedicated to the Adventures of Pocket Edward...you don't want to miss it.)

I hope you are all having a great week!  I'm trying to resume to my normal routine...and hopefully I'll get around to visiting all my favorite bloggers soon!!  I miss you guys when I'm not here♥

On The Wings Of...Lust

Yes, Jake picked the Hillbilly Backwoods Debutante, Vienna. I was not shocked. I didn't read any spoilers, but I was reading Jake and I'm pretty sure that he said that stuff to Tenley on the boat to kind of warn her about what was going to happen.  Tenley is so so super sweet.  She definitely deserves to have someone who is going to love her as much as she loves them.  I guess if Jake had any hesitations, I'm glad he let her go...better now than down the road. 
I may be reacting a little harshly, but I really truly feel like Jake picked Vienna because he's attracted to her physically and not much more. On a side note, did you guys notice that she was already talking trash about Tenley to Jake's sister-in-laws?!  She is such a little trouble-maker!  I think she'll be causin' trouble for Jake down the road.  I may be wrong. It's happened before. We'll see how it goes.

My husband has officially banned The Bachelor from our living room.  (whateva)  I'm stoked about Ali being the next Bachelorette.  Michael also said there would be no more DWTS (he gets real carried away with his bans)...that was until he saw that Erin Andrews was going to be a contestant, so we're back on for DWTS.  My pre-season favorites are Olympian, Evan Lysacek and ESPN reporter, Erin Andrews...only because she's dancing with Maks.

Who is your pre-season pick for DWTS?

Monday, Monday.

I'm sorry for the lack of blogging. It's not been intentional. I've had this yucky sinus junk and just have not been feeling myself lately.


Plus, I've had this little guy at work with me some the past couple of weeks.

Which one do you like better?  I've been playing around with some photo editing in Picnik.


It seems like Isaiah is out of school every time I turn around. We've had lots of snow and ice days this year, and then you add on the "professional days" and holidays and it just gets crazy!

Guess what this week is???

Did you guess?

If you guessed that it is THE OFFICIAL Twilight Convention, then you would be absolutely correct! I fly to Atlanta on Thursday. My cousin, Lindsay, is picking me up from the airport and we are meeting up with some friends for dinner in Peach Tree City that night. There's a little twist to the dinner though. These friends we're meeting are a couple of friends who I met on Cafemom and now keep up with through Facebook. So, it's going to be super exciting to finally meet them in person.

The convention starts on Friday! Gold Weekend Patrons (that's us!) get to pre-register at 11:00 on Friday. We'll be there with bells on...we definitely don't want to miss a thing! Friday is the day we get to see Peter Facinelli!   Woot! 

I think he's definitely the person I am most excited about seeing. The event that I am most looking forward to is the Volturi Ball on Saturday night!! I love my dress and shoes that I bought and I can't wait to wear them!

I'm taking my laptop and I plan on trying to blog while I'm there. We'll see how that goes. I may at least be able to post some pics and do a short post. I will definitely be posting on Facebook and Twitter. So, if you follow me on one of those sites, you'll be able to see some pics and read my ramblings from TwiCon.

One thing I'm not looking forward to is leaving Isaiah for almost 5 days! I'm going to be away from him for 4 nights! That's the longest I've ever been gone from him. I hadn't really thought much about it until now. Up to this point, I had just thought of Twilight and being in Atlanta with Lindsay...and how much fun all of that was going to be. I told him last night how much I was going to miss him and he said that if I miss him too much I could call him...thanks, Buddy. I'm thinking it'll be harder on me than it will be on him.

I'm planning on doing a giveaway of stuff from the convention! I haven't decided what might be in that giveaway just yet...I may not know until I'm there and see what I find to include in it. Any ideas? Requests? =) Stuff you think would be cool?
