My Rant on "Body Type"

I need to rant for a minute. I'm so frustrated with the world and in particular guys views of women's weight. I've watched the past few weeks the ABC show called dating in the dark (yes I know its not high quality TV) and I seriously want to beat the guys who after they see a girl who is maybe a size 6 or 8 say "well she's pretty but she doesn't have the body type I like." Seriously? Seriously! That is small!! I wish I was back in those sizes but guess what even when I'm not I'm still a beautiful women and so is everyone else. Not everyone can be a size 0 or 2. Being tiny doesn't make you beautiful. If you aren't it doesn't even mean that you don't exercise and take care of your body. I know this is just a show but this idea is everywhere! I don't want my girls to ingest this thought I don't want to let these thoughts in either. Please world stop feeding this idea to us, our girls and the men and boys out there!!!

Summer Rain

When we first moved to Las Vegas 5 years ago the summer rain was a new experience for us. The way rain just literally dumps for a few minutes, everything floods and then its gone. Tuesday we had a great storm, the first one like it, this summer.

It was blowing so hard away from our house that we could stand on the back porch and not get wet. Alexis LOVED the rain! Ariana was completely freaked out by it.

The view from the front of our house looking at the road.

Happy, Fun, Wet Day : )

The Fuzzy Truth

Sunday I looked down during church and realised that in my rush to get ready I had only shaved half of my left leg. Opps! I spent the rest of church trying to sit on my leg to hide the fuzzies : )
