a week worth of blog days 7-13...I'm a slacker!

Wow its been a busy week with Rylee's birthday and birthday parties!! So I have been slacking! I'll start with day 7 - photo of someone/something that has the biggest impact on me...

I would have to say my Mom and Dad. They are both such amazing people, and it is so awesome to see how much in love they are after almost 26 years (on the 27th its their anniversary!) my Dad will still give my mom a tap on the butt, they still hold hands and kiss eachother without caring who sees. They are amazing Grandparents to our little girls. They love to teach them new things! I love them so much!

Day 8 Short term goals this month and why....

So I guess that would be from now until the 20th of October.
1. Get ALL the laundry done and get all of us packed for California!! Because I don't want to forget anything!
2. Have a blast at Disneyland and the Beach!
3. After California, start getting ready for Halloween and our annual Halloween party!!

Day 9 Something I'm proud of in the last few days...

I finally made the girls bows for Disneyland, Rylee's birthday party was a success, got out the fall decorations...sad I know, I haven't been very accomplished!

Day 10 Songs I listen to when I'm happy, sad, hyped mad

I don't necessarily have songs for each emotion, but some of my favorite at the moment are:

Just the way you are by Bruno Mars
Take it off by Kesha
Persona non grada by Ravings of a Madman

some all time favorites are:

Goodbye to you by Michelle Branch
Ohio is for lovers by Hawthorne Heights
Wait for you by Atreyu



Day 11 Another pic of me and friends

I love my family so much and they really are some of my best friends. Jay and I can laugh about anything, we have such fun times together. I love the time I get to spend with my girls - together and individually. They both teach me new things almost daily.






Day 12 How I found out about blogs

A few of my friends had blogs and it was actually Jenna Palmer that told me I should start one. I thought it was a great idea. I wish I were better at it - I just need to make it a priority!!

Day 13 A letter to someone who has hurt me recently

I don't really have anything for this. I don't think I've been hurt and I'm not really one to hold grudges, my heart does hurt for those in Herriman right now who have either lost their homes or are evacuated not knowing if they will still have a home to go back to. I am so grateful for the men and women who are out there fighting that fire!!

Day 6

Day 6 - Favorite Super Hero

I don't know if I really have a favorite superhero...never really was into any of that. Well, I guess Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were pretty cool. They would count as a superheros right? My brother was obsessed with them - sheets, toys, halloween costume and everything, so I watched them all the time. Donatello was my favortie, since my favorite color used to be purple :)

Day 4 and 5

Day 4 - A habit that you wish you didn’t have

Sounds pretty dumb, but licking my lips - if I don't have chapstick with me, I lick my lips when they are dry. When I was young it got really bad sometimes, it would leave red marks all around my lips. Really wish I didn't do it :)


Day 5- A picture of somewhere you’ve been to

I don't keep very many pictures on my computer, so I don't have many of places I've been. We did just go to Wyoming for our yearly family reunion over labor day weekend.

Been to Disneyland several times, we're taking the girls for their first time in less than three weeks and we're soo excited!!

Day 2

The meaning of your blog title.

The Sphar Family - kind of explains itself, I'm so happy/lucky that Jay and I got married five years ago, what a great start to our Sphar Family. He's an awesome guy - sweet, funny, caring and best of all a great daddy. Feb 2 2007 and Sept 15 2009 two of the best days of our lives. Our little girls are so amazing. They bring so much joy to our lives with their cute personalities. Brikayla is always learning so many new things and saying the funniest stuff. Rylee is learning new things and her cute personality is really starting to show. I'm really lucky to have my family. I love them so much!
