Who got Wii’s for Christmas? I sure didn’t! But I was sneaky enough to take one from my nephews so we could play while they slept. (One of the few reasons being a grownup is awesome.) HOW MUCH FUN ARE THEY?   We did a little golfing, a little baseball, a little tennis, some bowling and a wholeContinue reading “Only a Wii wound.”

As a gift to you, your reader and myself, I’m done with this posting everyday garbage. Happy Birthday Jesus!

When I joined with Cody’s family seven years ago there was only one grandchild. There are now seven. We are quickly being outnumbered. As I sat against a wall last night while we tried to fake some sort of family all together dinner I realized the adults are losing. Little people are over taking ourContinue reading “Mars and Venus in the Playroom.”

Anybody else have what seems to be a senior citizen driving you around? An angry, opinionated senior citizen*? Cody is an angry driver. An aggressive driver. A very impatient driver. A driver that makes a comment about EVERY OTHER CAR THAT DARES TO GET IN THE WAY OF HIS LIFE GOALS AND AMBITIONS. If someone slows downContinue reading “Caution: Old man at the wheel.”

This is one of those posts that no one related to me is EVER going to talk about. They’re just going to stick their fingers in their ears and scream “LA LA LA I CAN’T HEAR YOU” and pretend that I don’t talk about my lady bits on the internet. But frankly, I have someContinue reading “My name is Casey, and I’m one sixteenth Brazilian.”

Dear Hallmark, I cry at commercials. I don’t normally bawl at commercials. Until this year. This whole keepsake ornament campaign you’re running? Allow me to hand over my credit card so I can give you the applause you deserve. The one with the little girl doing the victory dance after she makes a goal? And then herContinue reading “Deck the Hallmark with Grand Marketing.”

There are so many of you who LURVE Indiana. Indianapolis specifically. Um, why? Just asking, there just seems to be an awful lot of you LURKERS from Indianapolis that made yourself known when Jennifer announced she was going Hoosier. WHO ARE YOU AND WHY AREN’T WE FRIENDS? Most of my Indiana friends are transplanted Utahns.Continue reading “Indiana is no place for children.”

I am not a small town girl. Period. xoxo-Casey

Princesses have overtaken my life and thrown up on every part of it. Princess purses, princess cakes, princess phones, princess pillowcases, princess dresses, princess toothbrushes, princess CDs, princess movies, princess dolls, princess bows, princess shoes, princess balloons. Princess, princess, princess. Anyone with a three year old girl is nodding their head in commiseration. I swearContinue reading “Until they smoke a joint, they shall reign.”

 Wondering what kind of birthday cake you’d get if you were my kid? Well, you’d get a chocolate fudge cake (from scratch) with dark chocolate buttercream (from scratch) covered with fondant (from scratch) that pretty much looked like Barbie as the Island Princess. And it would sing. Four different songs. And it would have a matching tiara for you.Continue reading “Fondant dreams and buttercream wishes.”
