My Two New Best Friends

The boys played with the box all day long. Bostyn loved climbing all over it--their favorite part was the box, but mine is what was inside the box!


So I have a new best friend, and it is purple and plugs into the wall--can you guess what it is? Well, it is my new Dyson vacumn!! I used it for the first time this morning and it was really grose what it picked up! We have gone through 2 vacumns since we've been married, so we splurged and bought the heavy duty vac! It better be worth the $$$ or I'll be really upset---so far it is performing GREAT!! It took me a while to figure out how to use the vacumn though...it has so many different peices for doing different jobs around the house. I still need to read the owner's manual and find out what connects to what!


The filter was filled up in a matter of minutes! I really have vacumned recently--but it has just been with a broken vacumn! Yikes!
My other best friend and my husband's worse nightmare is ROSS!! It was the grand opening in Layton this past weekend and I have already been twice!! The first time I had the boys with me, so I ended up sitting in the corner reading books to Gage the whole time. Everyone else found lots of stuff though...I felt like I didn't get my fill of shopping....so my mom and I took another browse last night and I hit the jackpot!! It's been a long time since I've actually found some clothes that fit and look good! (You know how it is trying to find clothes after having a baby--your bod is just not the same!) At least that is my justification for spending too much money! Dave may have to lock me in the house or take the debit card away!

Michael and I have had the same vacuum the whole time we've been married. We need to take the plunge and get a new vacuum as well! Sometimes I feel like it just makes lines in the carpet. My mom has that vacuum and LOVES it!!!
That sounds fun shopping at Ross. I have to say that is still my FAVORITE clothes store. I swear 85% of my clothes are from high school or the first couple years of college. They definately fit different after 2 children though. :-) Have fun with your new vacuum and clothes!!!

That sounds familiar!! I think Noah sometimes wishes he could lock me up so I will stop shopping for clothes..But like you it is only because it is hard to find ones that fit right after baby bodies stink! And I am jealous of the DYSON! I want one...We have been through 3 vacuums since we got married lol! ;)

I too love my dyson. It was one ot the best purchases I have made. Each week when I vacuum it makes me sick to see how dirty our floors are. Also you should definalty take your boys to disney land. Most of the rides you can take the boys on even babies. IF you can't they have these things called stroller passes that you can go to the front of the line if your kids are too little to go on the rides. That way you don't have to wait as long.

Okay, those Dyson's look so cool. Let me know if it's worth the money--how much was it? I haven't been to Ross for a long time. I'm a lazy shopper and prefer places that take less effort, like Gap, where you don't have to sift through everything. It's worth the effort, though, so I need to get back there. What did you find?
