Things We Hate Tuesdays part 2

Okay, here it goes, just a little bit early.

Things we hate Tuesdays:

1. That unless you read Harry Potter 7 within the 24 hours after the book was released, people want to tell you the ending. I was trying to read it at the plasma center (yes I sell my plasma and enjoy it) and some meth head started talking to me about it and counted how many people died. Just because you are the star of the creepy meth billboards doesn't mean you have the right to ruin this book for me. Punk.

2. That during the monsoon, the wind picked up our $5 pink raft and threw it into the bouganvilla. Just because we don't take care of our pool toys. How are we supposed to get our tan on now?!?

Sorry we haven't passionately hated anything this week, next week will be much more hateful.

Shark Week Kick-Off Party v. 2

So Erica did the close-up pictures of everyone being a shark, and she told us to cover the food part of the party. Of course the Jones family can cover the food part. That's our specialty. So, I decided that the food needed to be "bites" themed. So Julia and I trekked to Wal-Mart at 11:59 p.m. Saturday to buy tater tot bites, mini corn dog bites, chicken bites, bagel bites (okay, really just cut up Totino pizzas), as well as curly fries..bites. Loves it. And how much does this food cost? Only $20. Seriously, eating crappy is WAY cheaper than healthy food. Next door cousins supplied the "blood."


Here are before and after pictures of Shark Week. Us before, casually watching tv..


And here is all of us while watching Shark Week, mostly terrified at how many f-ing commercials there were..


The Fletchers were especially terrified at the amount of commercials.


Or maybe they were terrified that Annie's stomach would explode from all the "bites" she consumed.


Aside from that, the week consisted of going to see Hairspray, loving Hairspray, buying the soundtrack of Hairspray, stealing the soundtrack from Annie and "accidentally" leaving it at Scrapbooks Etc so we could have a break from the songs. Oopsies.

Things We Hate Tuesdays

Well, because you were bombarded with pictures yesterday, we thought that they could tide you over for a day and we could post with no pictures. And we don't have any pictures to go along with this post.

So, to copy our e-friend, Erica, we started "things we hate" days too. But we are doing it on Tuesday because Tuesdays just aren't the same since Gilmore Girls got over. Tear. So here are our two things we hate:

1. People who say they have high pain tolerances
Okay, guys. You know who you are. You didn't take a knife and stab it in your friend's stomach and then they stabbed it in yours and you both counted how many tears you shed. Ka-please. p.s. I am going to be pretty much the least sympathetic nurse ever.

2. When you feel like you have something in your eye and you can't find it.
Girls especially hate this. Because you dig around in your eye forever and totally mess up your eye makeup and there wasn't even anything in your eye to begin with.

Stay tuned for next Tuesday's hates..

Our Children

So we are finally doing a post on our children... aka our new kittens. They are kinda getting a little on the old side. But here's some pictures, they are off my phone because eden hid my camera from me. Punk. Yes a three and a half year old hid my camera and i can't find it. Also yes we are forcing out kittens to wear clothing. And yes one of them really likes to wear clothes and gets really mad when we take them off. In case you were wondering the one that likes clothes is in the darker shade of pink.

Tarzan And Jane

Yes we enjoy kittens when they fight uncontrollably. In fact we strongly encourage it.
This next collection of photographs Eden herself took with my camera that is now M.I.A. Cute she wants to be a photographer just like her mom.
Screaming I believe cause the kittens wanted revenge and were attempting to attack her. That's just my theory.






Don't the kittens look REALLY happy? Maybe it's cause Eden was taking pictures of them slash talking to them in a really high voice three centimeters from their faces. I'm surprised she wasn't scratched up a bit at the end of this shoot. -Judy
P.S. Both our kittens are girls yet Eden is gender confused and think Tarzan is a boy. We know it's a boy name we just like to confuse children and animals.

Our New Favorite Words

So, Julia and I have added some new words to our vocabulary that you all may feel free to steal. However, just remember who started saying them first...

They are:

Waldemart = my friend Curtis in Utah thinks that Wal-Mart is the axis of evil, so they call it Waldemart, pronounced like Voldemort, just the Wal-Mart version.

Ode to Angelica: Annie's Top Thirteen Sayings

1. "Snackwell" (from Annie's brain)
2. "Oh snap" (from That's So Raven)
3. "Sweet niblets" (from Hannah Montana)
4. "Mer Mer Mer" (From Annie's brain. Says it after anything related to bossing her)
5. "Punk!" (yelled it at the tent when she tripped over it)
6. "Sshhh. Don't tell." (From Annie's brain)
7. "Stop bossing me. I'm the second counselor in Beehives." (From Annie's brain)
8. "I won't say the bad words in the Avril song anymore." (Note: only buy the clean version of Avril Lavigne songs. Or your sister will yell mother f***er when jamming out in the car/having uncontrollable dance parties.)
9. "Genevieve (the dog) can't help. She has paws." (From Annie's brain, referring to Annie having to unload the dishwasher alone.)
10. "Lay off the ranch, Annie." (She says this to herself, usually when trying on clothes.)
11. "WHAT?????" (Said when you scare her any time. Which is very easy to do.)
12. "Wrong-o." (from Annie's brain)
13. "I'm thirteen. I can do it myself." (From Annie's brain yet again..)

Our Relief

So, I am sure every resident of Maricopa County heard the sigh of relief today at 11 am. That would be when Amanda came back from Girl's Camp and relieved us of the burdens we have had for the last nine days. Yes, nine. And we felt every single hour of it. Earbee and Pickles (Eden and Delia=Dill (Amanda hated this nickname)=Dill Pickles=Pickles. And what did I succeed in doing during this time? Convincing Julia that if she goes within 100 feet of a boy, an embryo will jump into her body and will turn her into a teenage mother. It was the best birth control on the f-ing planet. Sadly, for me as well.

My Secret Shame

So, for starters, is anyone having trouble looking at blog comments or updating blogs in the evening? Because our really really lame computer only lets us look at comments when blogger isn't too "busy." Whatever. So, sorry that Julia has hijacked the blog. I have been working tons at my sanctuary aka Scrapbooks Etc. I will be hating life and in the worst mood on the whole entire planet and then when I walk into that air conditioned building, it is like my Mecca. I heart it big time.

Anyways, I know everyone has secret shames, and I was going to make one of mine public. The best thing about a lot of my secret shames is Daniel shared them all as well. This one may be one of the most embarrassing.... I, Emily, the 26 soon to be 27 year old, loves anything about sharks. I know, we are supposed to grow out of that phase at like age 12. But I still love them. What are my favorite movies? Jaws 1, 2, 3, and Jaws: The Revenge. Maybe Daniel and I had a marathon and watched them all in one day. Have I read all the books and seen all the other one star killer shark movies? Yes. Here is the evidence of our love, when we went to Universal Orlando, the Jaws ride was closed. Please see our sad muppet faces..



Anyways, my obsession with sharks grows in the month of July. Why, do you ask? Because it is the best event of all time, Shark Week on the Discovery Channel! So, if no one sees me during the last week of July, this is why. And maybe my love for Mike Rowe, the host of Dirty Jobs, makes me watch Discovery Channel more than any other channel. Yes, even MTV.

Feeding the spaz AKA Delia

Would you like to partake of my stickiness?

Pondering/ space child

The third course a thriple chocolate
brownie ice cream cone.. don't we love
the reaction sugar is on little kids.

As i said before shes's a spaz, funny but a spaz.

So besides the fact that we are motherless we now have two other motherless children in our household. AKA Eden and Delia. (Because their dearest mother is in Hawaii and then at the delight some Girl's Camp) That was weird to call them by there real names considering there names are usually Earbee and DillyDoo or Spaz Attack. Here is Delia herself eating the nutritious meal of apples hot dogs and an ice cream cone. Yes that is random. And yes she is a spaz. Yes i am a GREAT mother! -Bubzee

HIGH SCHOOL MUSCIAL!!!!!!

Ok don't be too ridiculously jealous but me and Annie went to HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL THE PLAY on June 22!!!! Here is example number one of Angela's extreme ecstatic-ness. She pretty much was jumping for joy the whole time! Along with dancing in her chair. She probably would have danced in the aisles if i didn't restrain her by saying she might get in trouble. This might have been the most entertaining night of my life. Mainly because of Ann's enthusiasm in knowing every word to every song and doing the moves of the dance that would be possible by sitting. Although i believe i might have been the only person there over 14 and not a mother of three. Although i do wish me and Ann were dressed up.. that might have made my life not just my month. I apologize for the crappiness of these pictures it is my fault i didn't realize i forgot my camera till we were there. so instead we used my phone camera. I really like Annie's excitement and loving of life though and i secretly want to make a life size image of these pictures. They can go next to the high school musical poster which is in our bedroom. Here are your real witnesses for those facts. Along with the ticket stubs.
