Weekend Recap Top 10...

Welcome to another edition of "Weekend Recap Top 10"! The past 3 days have been absolutely A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. It was a weekend without any little boys...so lots of alone time with my sweet hubby...


  1. Meeting Ryan for lunch on Friday to kick-off the weekend and officially celebrate his signing the offer for his promotion...the future for our family is so bright!


  2. Watching the Mavs beat the Hornets from nosebleed seats...had the best time ever


  3. Eating lettuce wraps at P.F. Chang's


  4. Watching Pineapple Express...If you haven't seen this...go get it! Hysterical! We laughed so hard!


  5. Talking about our 2 week trip this summer to the lake house with the kids...Cannot wait! Such good times!


  6. Going to bed late and sleeping in...


  7. Finding out Preston was named the MVP of his baseball tournament

  8. Watching Austin hide the eggs for his brothers to find...Times are changing...

  9. Hanging out with the family on Easter

10. Having numerous uninterrupted conversations with my hubby


Hope you had a great weekend...

HAPPY MONDAY!!!

The Proposal...

Two years ago today, you surprised me, and made me the happiest girl in Mexico...and in the world...

I love you Ryan!

His promotion...It's official...I am so proud of you, baby...There is no one more deserving than you...


I love you...

Customer Service...

Last Saturday I went and had my nails filled, and when I was walking out the door, I noticed they were thinner than they had ever been. Seriously I think I could have thumped them off but decided to see how they did because I am so ADD and couldn't stand the thought of sitting in that chair another second. Fast forward a few hours, and 1 nail had already chipped...not good. Next day...another one. One more day passed....2 more. That was it...I decided to go back last night to get them fixed. I gathered my composure and receipt, walked into the establishment...won't mention the name, but it is VERY close to my house...and asked to have my paper-thin appendages repaired. The guy behind the desk asked me who did them, and my little fella just happened to be sitting in close proximity. I pointed him out, presented my receipt, and casually sat down to wait my turn. When he finally made it my way, he asked me what happened and who did my nails. I explained it was him and showed him the results. He them proceeded to raise his voice and accuse me of lying saying he was positive he didn't do my nails, that my nails looks like they had been done 2 weeks ago, that I was not there on Saturday and literally told me I was lying...Okay, dude...I sat staring at you file, drill, and basically destroy my nails for an hour and a half...I know it was you. After he continued to argue with me, I...still calm...picked up my things, and went to find the manager.

Long story short, the manager's wife led me to another station, gave me something to drink...actually a nice glass of Chardonnay...and hooked me up. Her husband graciously "righted the wrong" and stayed open late while his son and daughter...I ended up knowing their teachers...talked my head off. All ended well, but I couldn't help wonder...WHERE HAS CUSTOMER SERVICE GONE?????

Easter Humor...

HAPPY THURSDAY!

Weekend Top 10...

I'm trying something different as a means of recapping our weekend. Prepare yourself for the top 10 moments from the "Solawatts" weekend...I know you're on the edge of your seat aren't you...not so much...



  1. Hijacked my in-law's house..they're in NY...where we grilled steaks, listened to country music out on the patio and watched the kids and dogs run wild.

  2. Watched Carter actually play soccer instead of dance around the field.

  3. Attended Preston's baseball game where he caught an amazing pop fly...that's my boy!

  4. Had the pleasure of being on the receiving end of a mani and a pedi.

  5. Helped my mother-in-law decide to paint her kitchen cabinets black at their new house in NY. Can't wait to see how they turn out, Carol!

  6. Watched Preston pull his first tooth!

  7. Watched Trysten attempt to pull his hillbilly tooth.

  8. Went with 3 other couples and their kids to Peter Piper's Pizza where we closed the place down. Good times with good friends.

  9. Continued to thank God for my incredible husband.

  10. Had the whole family together all weekend...Priceless.

Good times...
