Cabin Fever!... Crazy Going, Slowly Am I?

I am really starting to feel the craziness set in! I am so not a winter person and am seriously sick of this cold weather that you can't do a thing in. The spring weather better not take its sweet ass time getting here this year and we better actually have HOT summer weather this year or I'm moving to Miami! Last summer's weather was tedious but with dealing with this cold the crappy summer weather of 2009 is very welcomed at this point!
So just over a month ago we bought new snow tires for our car (which it was in desperate need of), well Sunday afternoon it was pointed out to us by a friend who stopped by that our left passenger tire was totally flat! We took a look, pumped it full of air and believe me the air was coming out as fast as we were putting it in... well almost! So the boys got the spare tire on and Monday morning we got the flat tire to the place we bought it to see what was going on. It turns out that a nail did the damage and it was so bad that the tire was garbage! Like where do these nails come from? So anyway, we bought a new tire and when we went to put it on the key for the rims was lost! Still don't have a clue where it went, but oh well. My husband had to take the car to the dealership to get all the locks off the rims, new ones put on and a new key or else we weren't getting the new tire put on. Luckily the dealership was kind and didn't charge us for the parts!
I'd just like to ask people out there to please be careful with your nails, some of us can't afford to be putting tires on our cars every month! But seriously, how do the nails get on the road??? Anyone have any thoughts?  Anyone???

Happy Birthday Liam!

Today we had Liam's birthday party for him at Boston Pizza in town here and boy am I glad that is over with! I've been worrying about it all week... think about it, 6 kids in a restaurant plus two babies... and then my husband and his friends! Oh geezeeeeee! lol. So for some strange reason that I don't think I will ever fully understand my husband decided to buy a whoopie cushion for the kids to play with... why? Is he nuts? After about 10 minutes of it I had to be the bad guy and take it away, it was starting to drive me mental! The kids weren't too bad but I did have to keep reminding them they needed to stay in their seats and not run around the restaurant... fat chance of them listening to me eh lol. According to our lovely waitress they were very well behaved and she has seen and dealt with much much worse, so I guess that is good to hear : )
So for the party we bought these spider man masks for the kids to wear, well they were a big hit for Morgan and his friends! They all decided that while we were all driving back to our house that they would wear the masks... and they did. You wouldn't believe the looks we got as we were driving through town... 3 cars in a row with people wearing spider man masks lol good times!
Overall the day turned out to be really fun, not only for Liam (who got spoiled with all kinds of presents!) but for us big kids. It isn't often we all get together anymore to hang out and have some good laughs. We are planning for a round 2 in a couple of weeks... but this will include the 6 of us cooking dinner together haha, should prove to be interesting!
