A SCENTSational Time!

Wow where do I begin! Work has been busy...so has life...but then again when is it not...this time for both David and I. I am so proud of my hubby who has decided to go back to school and finish his Bachelors Degree! While I have taken on a new business venture.....I took a plunge...well I should say WE took a plunge because I couldn't do this without the help of my family....and am an offical SCENTSY Independent Consultant!

This is the October Warmer which is on sale next month! Tonight we had a training party where I got to meet the other members of my team...enjoyed some dinner and SCENTS talk! I am so excited to be working with a wonderful group of women...and loving that it is making me step out of my box! I decided to start selling because I'd love to add to the financial security of our family!

I am looking forward to our October parties!! Yes I did it booked 2 parties this coming month...just in time for the holidays!

The BEST NEWS....drum roll please......................Dj is WALKING!!!

Well time to finish up my first Scentsy order and pack for deliveries tomorrow!!

A New Beginning!

School started Monday...well teacher work days did. I have decided that this year will be a NEW year and a BETTER year than the last!
I must say that Dj transitioned back to grandma and grandpa's house with no problem. So well that they were waiting at the driveway for us when we showed up on Monday. I was alittle scared that it wasn't going to be a good day as the weekend before he would cry anytime that I left the room much less walked away from him in general.
It is adorable that he gets to take his lunch with him everyday.

On another note...tomorrow is my first day back in my room and only 3 more work days until school STARTS!!

Ohh and we are in a GLEEK marathon!

Date Night w my Lil Man

Tonight Davids playing poker with the guys and I am having date night with my little man! We decided to treat ourselves to Chinese take out and Soul Surfer! Let me just say so far this is an awesome movie! We also watched another movie this morning Under the same Moon. I love when movies give me perspective on my job and what some of my families live.
This weekend we are really busy...so busy 3 of our parties are at the same time.
Sadly this is the last weekend of summer and I start work on Monday...BOO! But at least my date night is with this stud muffin! Who could ask for more!!

Mr. & Mrs. Chef

Well this week David helped me out tons in the kitchen by making dinner each night starting Tuesday night he made nachos then his Memaws Green Chile Casserole and ended with Lasagna!
Thursday it was Dj and I's turn to experiment at lunch! We had salad and Butternut squash Macaroni...here are some pics of our fun lunch! I am very proud of my Mac as it is all from scratch minus the noodles!

Here is our lunch me salad & Mac while Dj enjoyed yogurt smoothie & Mac!



We had guests over this weekend and wow our house was packed! I got to get lots of my school shopping in and found some things I'm looking forward to purchasing come Tax Free Weekend!!

Routing away!!

Well we finally did it! We upgraded wireless routers! We've been using one that my brother in law Louis let us have ages ago...at least in techo land for sure! In my opinion it cost a bit much but in the scheme of things I can work online doing my work stuff while David is watching Netflix, playing PS3 or any other widget our TV has on it. So welcome the Cisco Linksys-E4200 Router to the Anderson Casa!

I must say it looks rather intimidating! It took me about 2 hours to get this simple device "accoding to the instructions" up and running! Apparently my laptop does not like Cisco software! After spending time on the phone with Louis...and now being in debt...well Dj and David are in debt to him...99 kisses and a 23 pack of Modelo! I am happy to announce that I am currently blogging while David is playing GTA with Trey and Shaft.

Sadly I start work in the next week and a half...I am not looking forward to it one bit. Tonight Dj and I went to the store to stock up on snacks and things that he'll need for Mama's house in the next week! Dj is my little trooper and helper at the grocery store. I can hand him things and he'll put them in the back of the basket for me. I can't believe how much he's grown and how smart he's getting. Our newest accomplishments are standing and walking along anything he can get his little fingers on and putting things in cups or bowls and transferring them back and forth between objects!

Well...time for bed as I have a early GYM wake up call!!

Yikes! Thats sour!

I just think this picture is too precious!

It's all started with dragging the laundry out of the basket then ended with lemons!

New here, new there..new everywhere!

Well we officially survived our first birthday party! More on that later...but we finished our kitchen remodel just to welcome plumbing problems! Sunday I woke up to no and I mean NO water pressure that slowly led to hardly any water at all! Well after trying our own little DIY ideas we called a plumber...free estimates but work starting at $90 whoa!! So we called my brother than had a friend. He came out gave us an idea of what was wrong and after new shut off valves come Friday we'll have a NEW water-heater. Yay...not really but life happens and we thank God we are able to find the means to get it fixed!
On an exciting note we have decided to make some new and improved healthy eating changes :) Dj hung out with his cousins today while Dad and I took care of some business and we managed to get a new cookbook!!
I must say we are very excited about this new change! And let's cross our fingers all goes well with the new water-heater!! Now to watch the hubby play some Socom 4 and get my popcorn ready for Just Go with It!
