I go to her house and off comes my jewlery and onto Addie it goes.......the funniest is that she doesn't like her moms, she'll only wear mine! So when i told Addie she looked like Auntie Run Run the other day she made this face!!!! She would...........

Apples, apples and more apples!

CARAMEL APPLES


So one of the things that makes OCTOBER my FAVORITE month is that there are so many yummy treats! Caramel apples probably being the best. So every Oct Danny and I make apples with White Chocholate and Cinnamon and other yummy candy on them..So good! This was Addies first year of joining in the fun...the best was when were were unwrapping the caramels. She did good the first couple and then started eating them! She starting eating her apple pre-carameled too, she was too excited and couldn't wait!

Arizonia State Fair

So we hit up the Arizonia State Fair a few weekends ago. We went to the Weezer concert which was pretty funny, (odd little men), walked around and watched all the CARNIES and then we pretty much just ate all the good food. Because lets be honest thats what the fair is all about! P.S Biggest bags of cotten candy EVER!

1. I'm OCD, i mean we all like things the way we like things but i take this to the extreme! To me everything has its place and way it goes (i.e. toilet paper always rolls off from the top, toilet seat LID, always down (even most girls leave this up YUK), vacuum cord wrapped counter clock-wise) those are just a few examples and the worst part is that i expect everybody around me to do things the exact same way or i flip!

2. People always tell me that i'm very girly and always "done up" but those that truly know me, know that i am a "closet dirty." I never hesitate to get up in the morning and run errands in my pjs (which my family so lovingly point out are see-through), hair, nor teeth brushed and no bra! And to add insult to injury i only wash my hair about every 5 days and have been known to go 7-8 days a few times!

3. Candy, candy and more candy, I live for candy, sweats, treats, you name it! If you wanna make me happy, buy me candy! But my favorite things ever is WATERMELON BUBBLE GUM! I could chew it all day everyday and i buy it just about every trip to Walmart!

4. Halloween is my favorite holiday! I love the month of OCT, the candy, the crisp autumn air (when i lived in Utah), fright mares, little kids all dressed up and everything SpOoKy!

5. I don't do late! I think its rude, inconsiderate and have a secret hate for people think that there is really such thing a fashionably late! That's just rude people's excuse for themselves! I think that if my mom can have seven kids and still get everywhere on time and most times early, then nobody has an excuse....we're all tired and busy! So people that know me know that when i say we are leaving for dinner at 6:00pm that means we are really leaving at 5:50! I am always early!!!!!

6. I talk to my mom every single day (at least once)! My sisters can attest to this! I know that it annoys my mom and that most times she doesn't have time to talk to me, but she is a total trooper! 97.1% of the time she puts on her happy voice and says "Hey Er, how are you?" even though she knows i don't even have anything to say, i just need to hear her voice! My hardest times=when she goes out of town and out of contact! I get a little depressed and have even been known to cry!

I LOVE NYC




So the Hills have finally hit up the BIG APPLE....that's right folks the Hills rocked NYC this last August and we had a blast! Our cousins Jeff and Nicole and Aunt Rischia flew in from Calgary to join in the fun total-ing us up at 14. You can probably imagine what its like trying to get 14 people on the subways......Ya lets not go there! Lets just put it this way, when you have that many people in NY you try to do things in the cheapest way and figuring out what subway package is the most cost efficient kinda sucks....especially when EVERYBODY in our family pretty much sucks at MATH!

So I thought i would throw out a few NYC highlights!
1. Arriving in NYC and passing the NY JETs in the airport as they pointed at me and talked about my Angle shirt! They pretty much loved it! (other members of the family may tell this memory different but hey its my blog)





2. Mets game- Mom and Dad getting beer dumped on them from the bleachers above, they were soaked! YUP GREAT SEATS!
3. ERIN TRIPPING AND FALLING IN CENTRAL PARK!! CLASSIC ME
4. HAHA Tanner tripping and pretty much taking another man out! It was hilarious
5. The look on mom and dads face as I started pole dancing in the subway-AHHH the skills they never knew i had! YIKES!!!!
6.Getting up at 4:00am for the Celion Deon concert at the today show and what do you know she cancelled! But we did make it on TV
7. Danielle tyring to buy a purse on Canal street- the Asians pretty much hate her! She couldn't catch a break! And she never did get her wallet!
8.Topher falling off the chair in the Hotel Lobby
9. Sitting on the subway coming home from the METs game when low and behold i notice Kassie's shoes-Maryjane Flats with white thick bobby socks and jean capris! Kassie there is never an excuse for that kind of style!
10. Tanner and Joe turning their pants into MAN-CAPRI'S while walking through Central park with purses! That is so STRAIT!
11. Seeing Katie Holmes with Surrie walking into Little Mermaid!



So some other fun things we did......

We all saw Wicked one night and it was amazing. The next night we all split up and went to different plays, some went to South Pacific, Chicago and Jersey Boys! Everybody had fun at all of them but LOVED Wicked in the end!

Played at Seaport Village after seeing the Bodies Exhibit.

My number one goal for the trip was to find the Naked Cowboy in Times Square...sadly we never did find him but we did find the Naked Cowgirl (almost put this in the highlights section but I'm still trying to decide if i would call it that! (65, saggy, droopy, wrinkly and way too much makeup))

We went to TOP OF THE ROCK! The view is amazing... and its unreal to think how many people live in one city!



Ate at SERENDIPITY for Laurens birthday! YUMMY-est desserts EVER! Plus it was funny because dad hates Tiffany Lamps and they are everywhere in that restaurant! You could say he was in his personal Hell!


Shopping, Shopping and more Shopping! But what better place then NYC?


What better place to be a kid then F.A.O. SCHWARTZ? We tried out our skills on THE BIG PIANO! Ya after years of lessons and i can't play anything! And now I'm sure we all got a fungus from all the bare feet that step on that thing!






Subways, Subways and more Subways!

Giant Candy Bar anyone? HERSHEY'S STORE- YUMMY!

We also waited in line for over an hour at the SHAKE SHACK!!! YUMMY food! It was this little hamburger joint in the middle of Madison Square Park and it was packed!



Over all the trip was great! But we could all have used a vacation from our vacation cause we walked everywhere! Now its back to work................

Where I've Been.....



LAKE BLAINE 2008


More Pics to come!


Ok so all i hear lately is "Update your blog, blah, blah , blah.....ok well not the blah part but thats what is sounds like after enough people say it over and over.

So I went to Lake Blaine with the family this last July and as always had an absoulute bLaSt!!!! This year in addition to having the fun Willardsen Cousins, Noel and Cherice were able to come and play too.



So we got a new boat the day we left to the lake and while all the girls were a little disappointed to be losing the Ski boat, the new wakeboard boat turned out to be AWESOME and the wake wasn't to shabby for skiing either.

Some highlights, Lauren and I attempting to dock start off the back of the boat on the same surfboard.....yup that takes talent and NO we don't have it!

Topher landing his tantrum on the wakeboard
Pretty much the best BANANA pyramid EVER.....
and Gidet day...yes folks, erin, kendyle and dani triple, double skiing. For those of you haven't double skiied in a few years, try it...its HILLARIOUS!

And everybody was able to SURF this year.....yea! Boring to watch but tons of fun to do!

So as most of you know 4th of july is one of my FAVORITE holidays, so we spent it on the lake and that night piled all 17 of us into the boat and went out on the lake to watch all the fireworks over the water. Ahh it doesn't get better then that!



Ok well I'm still waiting to get a bunch of pictures from Dani and Jordy. So stay tuned.........oooohhh and we leave for NYC this next week so wait for it! Knowing me it will be posted next summer but hey what can you do!
