NOOKIE NOOK TIME!!!

OH MY, OH MY!! I am EXTREMELY excited for my anniversary gift from Jac. He gave me the BEST gift for Kelly:D He got me a NOOK!!!!! No, dirty minds, I am not talking about the oh so goodness of lovin, I am talking about my new E book from Barnes and Noble. I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE to read!! I will read just about anything, and I think people who know me well are a bit shocked when they find out my favorite author is Jane Austen. Of course my favorite book is Pride and Prejudice, I have stated this many a times on my blog, but again, HOW CAN YOU GO WRONG WITH MR DARCY!!! So, I have been dropping hints about the nook and the kindle from amazon for a while now and thought maybe for Christmas? Jac is always a bit hesitant to get me these kinds of gifts and for good reason. I have a way of saying I will use it forever, and am totally bored with it after a week or so. BUT this is going to be the BEST thing!!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!! He came home from work on our anniversary and asked me if I got him a gift. Me, looking EXTREMELY dumbfounded, said, no, you got your snowboarding pass and I thought you were getting a new board too. So, I hurry and recovered by telling him I bought him his favorite cereal. WHAT A LOSER!!!! I felt like CRAP! So, I thought he was kidding when he asked me if I wanted my gift or if I wanted to wait until we got up to Sundance for dinner. I of course said NOW!!!!! AND, he pulled out a piece of paper. What could it be?!?! It was the receipt for my NOOK!!!! YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY YAY!!! I will be getting it in a couple of weeks and I don't know if I have said this but I am WAY EXCITED!!!
Check them out. They are a bit pricey, but if you read as much as me, it will save you money in the end. LOTS AND LOTS of free books and when you do buy one, they are NEVER more than $9.99. Even the new releases. AND think of all the trees we are saving!!!!! Kind of orgasmic if you ask me!!! So, if you see me at a stop light, or at the gym with this weird giant ipod looking thing, DON'T BOTHER ME!!! I AM probably reading one of Mr. Darcy's epic lines. THANKS JAC!! You are the best, and you can go snowboarding EVERYDAY, wait, you already do that. Oh well! I will be reading on my NOOK!!!! LOVE YOU JAC!

11 YEARS, ARE YOU SURE?!?!?!

Jac and I just celebrated our 11 year wedding anniversary yesterday. WOW! Can't believe it. It doesn't seem that long, but at the same time, I can't remember my life without him. You know? Feels like he has always been in my life. We always tease and say that since we have had such a good run the last 11 years, maybe we should quit while we are good. FUNNY, yet scary to me. It is a little bit of too much reality for me right now. SO many of our dear friends are getting divorced. Heart breaking. I had a panic attack a month or so ago about it. WORRYING that Jac was going to leave me. Lying awake staring at him wondering what it would be like if he wasn't there anymore, dropping the kids off for the weekend and what would I do without all of them around. I of course freaked out in my Kelly way, and cried and "expressed" my feelings too him, and he of course handled it in his oh so Jac, laid back, James Dean way, and laughed at me, then hugged me, and in his LOVING way, reassured me that he is not leaving me. I go through that once in a while. You would to if your husband was a super good looking photographer who works with GORGEOUS models, BUT not going into that. I am not insecure in the least bit, I think God blesses me so I don't lose it all the time, but once in a while I freak out and he brings me down like Xanax. We waited a while to have the kiddies, and REALLY Enjoyed our seven years traveling, hanging with friends, partying, traveling, sleeping, eating, working, sleeping and more sleeping!!! BUT, I wouldn't trade any of that for our two juniors. Well, maybe for some more sleep, BUT, Monkey is actually sleeping better.
Life is so NOT perfect at Casa Scott, but we work. We put up with each others crap and we have our "fun" battles, which I always win, guess working for Attorney's for so long you learn to argue:D Well, okay, I NEVER win, but I like to pretend I do. And the more wrong I am, the LOUDER I argue.
I love Jac with everything I have. He is my joy, my soul, my besty, my confidant, my heart, and most importantly my companion. Love you Budah! Can't wait for the future of us sitting on a HOT Beach somewhere, you surfing, taking pictures or watching birds, while I read Pride and Prejudice over and over on my Nook and judge everyone around me for what they are wearing and their way too tan bodies, and planning my next botox, hair and eyebrow waxing appointments, all while eating some Curry and rice. And at the end of the day, we will be us, and there is nothing better to me. I LOVE YOU, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!

TWO OF US DRIVING NO WHERE

Sunday the 11th is my Budah's birthday. WOW! It seems like yesterday we were going on our first date exactly thirteen years ago. We had our first date the week of Jac's birthday. That is why I LOVE Fall so much. The chill in the air, the smell of the leaves and the temperature changing. AHHHHHH!!!
Jac and I have been on MANY road trips together. Gosh, I don't even think I can count them. We LOVE driving together and the anticipation of getting to our destination. Which is usually Southern Cali where we can bake in the sun, well, I can while Jac surfs, and smell the sea air, feel that cool, oh so needed sea spray, and sit and watch some of the most amazing sunsets imaginable.
Every time I hear The Beatles song two of us, I think of me and Jac and our road trips. We LOVE that song and it has kind of become "our" song. We have so many, but that one always makes me smile and think about him and I in the Jetta or the Jeep driving somewhere, or no where at all. We haven't been on too many road trips with the kiddies, but they are getting older and we are planning lots and lots of trips for the future.
Jac is my heart and I LOVE him so much. He works SOOOOOOOOOOO HARD all the time to support our family. He is an AMAZING photographer and has so many other great talents. Oh, and he is so damn good looking it is kind of sick:) I am one lucky girl to have him and I thank him for such a wonderful love and life we have.
This morning I was sitting at the dining room table checking my email and I looked into the kitchen through the little cut out and I started to cry. My sweet Jac and our two adorable kiddies were singing and dancing to Danzig of all things, but we were all together. How did I get so lucky? Why did I get him? How did we get the two of them? I thank God everyday for my sweet little family and all our blessings.
So, to my Budah, which I call him that not because he looks like Budah, but because his motorcycle makes that deep BUDAH BUDAH sound, anyway, to my Budah, I love you with everything I have. You are the most amazing husband, father and best friend a girl could ever ask for and I thank you for loving me. I know it is a challenge sometimes, but we work and I cherish you. Happy BIrthday Jac!!!

HIGH'S AND LOW'S, WHAT ARE YOURS?!?!?

What are your highs and lows? Meaning, what gives you that Euphoria, that combustion in your chest, the ORGASM if you will, that you need to scream out loud or you are going to burst feeling. And what are you lows? What causes you physical pain, and makes your chest ache. Causes your eyes to burn with tears that just won't flow. We all have them, or l do anyway. I love to sit and look at others and wonder what theirs are. I am a people watcher. So, if you catch me staring, I am probably just trying to figure you out. Not judging, just wondering.
So, what are your highs? Mine, are pretty simple and surfaced I would say. But they are mine and that is all that matters.
The first time Jac kissed me and held me. I felt safe, love, lust, and just bliss. I thought I had felt that from a guy before, but nope! He was the first and the last, and I am so happy to say that I still feel this way with him after 13 years. He has my heart and always will.
When I walked out my parents back door that bright, crisp, amazing Christmas morning and there was my GORGEOUS white, spankin' new VW Jetta. Jac gave me my first car, it was mine. ALL MINE and l loved that car!
The day l found out I was preggers with Ele. Best day. I thought I was going to explode with happiness! Couldn't wait to tell the world.
The day she was born. No words can explain the relief of pain, anxiety and just true euphoria it was. Seeing her beautiful little alien face for the first time. Hearing that cry. holding her close to me for the first time. Watching Jac fall in love all over again. So amazing.
The day I walked off the airplane at JFK airport in New York City. l had dreamed about going there my whole life, and finally did.
Walking into to Tiffany's on 5th avenue, WOW! My dream for so many years. Jac taking me up to the 5th floor and letting me pick out a treasure to remember my first trip to NYC and Tiffany's by. Which I wear on my middle right finger every day.
Phin's arrival. SUCH a long, hard, sick pregnancy with him, and seeing him, holding him, loving him for the first time. Finding out his breathing was alright. Having Ele come to the hospital to meet her baby brother for the first time. Seeing Jac hold his "Jr." I was complete. My little family.
Those are just a few of my highs. So many more I could write about, So many from my childhood with my sisters, my parents, my Nana and Papa, all my cousins, and friends. Too many to write about, this post would go on forever.
I heard a song the other day that really made me think about my lows. I love music. I am constantly listening to music. Singing, crying, laughing about songs I love.
I don't believe in dwelling on the past and mistakes, but rather making your life better from those experiences. But, sometimes that is hard. I am not going to write about too many of my lows, because they are just, well, private. BUT, I will tell you that I have learned to NOT regret some of my lows. I use too. I use to think I was such a horrible person because of some of my choices in life. Not any more. I can't live my life in regret. I don't want to be a bitter person. Those people make me sad.
Lows make me stronger. It takes a little while, but I come out of my low better and stronger then before it began.
Losing loved ones, dogs, friends too young, being dumped for the younger girl in high school after giving everything to him, wondering if your life will ever be normal, struggling to be "perfect" in this society. These are a few of my lows that have inspired me to feel the euphoria of my highs. You will never know true love it you don't feel deceit and pure heart break. I wouldn't of known what loving Jac and being loved by Jac would really be like, without a low in my life. The one that when I heard this song, inspired this post.
"Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
you're gonna believe them
and when you're fifteen, dont forget to look before you fall
Ive found that time can heal most anything
and you just might find who you're supposed to be
I didnt know who I was supposed to be, at fifteen" - Taylor Swift
Take your lows and make them your inspiration to have highs. I guess my lows helped me be more appreciative of my life. A good life at that.

THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!!!!

The new erasers, the packages of all the pencils and pens, all the cute backpacks, the cubes of post its, and all those darn lunch boxes!The best time of year is when you walk down the isles of Target and see and smell all the school supplies. I LOVE shopping for new school clothes and supplies, and still go with my mom to the mall and get new shoes and clothes this time of year. It also means Fall is just around the corner. PUMPKINS, falling leaves, and HALLOWEEN!!! WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!
BUT this year it is really FUN and special for me. My Ele started preschool! WOW! I can't believe she is 4 and going to school. She LOVES her preschool and is in LOVE with Miss Cathy her teacher.
To get her all ready and prepared for her first day, we have been doing LOTS and LOTS of shopping! We spent the entire day last Sunday with our great friends Ashlee and Ellie in Park City, shopping, eating, and laughing. Just mommies and the girls. Ele and Ellie are such good friends and have so much fun together, and I just LOVE Ash! We laughed and talked and just really enjoyed watching our girls have so much fun together. We walked and walked and laughed and chased Ele and Ele and spent lots and lots of money. BUT we got some cute stuff and really had fun!!
The following day Ele was SOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED she couldn't sit still! She spent about an hour trying to figure out which outfit she wanted to wear and what shoes would be best. I am in trouble. She is a total shoe and clothes horse like her Mama. She finally settled on her new dress and cute polka dot leggings. Very shabby chic. She was set. We spent a few minutes taking pictures and mommy crying, more pictures, mommy choking back more tears, and then she did it. My SWEET little Blue looked at me and said, "Oh Mommy, you will be alwight, I will be back befoe you know it!" She is too sweet! I really cried then. Good thing I have such big sunglasses to hide the swollen no make up eyes. We hopped in the car and drove too Miss Cathy's Moonbeam Preschool. She just walked right up that walk way and headed right in. Hung her little Tink backpack in her cubby and was off to play with the toys, and wait for her besty Mia to get there. I sat there and watched my whole world unravel. Remembering back to feeling that little bean in my belly while I would sit at my desk at work longing to hold her. Remembering those LONG four days of labor awaiting her appearance, remembering the first day we got to spend home alone after I quit my job, our times at the park, our all nighters with her poor ears, our sleep overs in mommies bed when daddy is out of town, Oh so many memories and fun times with my Ella Blue! As I made my way to the door with Phin, I looked back at my beautiful little Blue and she gave me that GORGEOUS grin and said," Love you Mama!" in her little no "R's" brooklyn accent. The tears were POURING out of my eyes as I walked to my car. Four years. How they have flown. Did I do enough with her? Did I spend enough time just me and her laughing? Did I yell too much? Did I prepare her enough for school? On and on it goes. I never thought I would be driving her to preschool and dance lessons and singing all my wonderful naughty music with her. I just never imagined she would be mine and be grown up so fast. My Phin is one, is so independent now. He still loves Mama to rock him and sing too him and he and I are really enjoying our three afternoons a week alone. Usually spent either at home lying on the front room floor zooming cars around or at Costco or some shop just me and my boy! I am so in love with my kiddies. I can't look at them enough. They are my world. So, to you mommies out there. Enjoy your moments and time with your kiddies. It does go fast. It is hard for me to let Ele go, but there is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much joy in her voice when we ride home in the car and I listen to her and Mia talk about school and the boys and how gross they are. I actually had a glimpse of the future the other day. NOT looking forward to that! Jac and I talk about the future and how much trouble we are in for if she is anything like her very "SOCIAL" mother. HEEEHEEEE!
Now I cherish my weekends home with Jac and the kiddies so much more. making breakfast and singing and dancing in the kitchen. My cup runneth over.
