happy forth

okay, there are like fifty awesome BBQs going on this weekend so gotta make this quick. Does it suprise you that:

i'll probably see Brock this weekend?

my ginorm house is SO COVERED in patriotic wreeths and wood blocks and lots of country/vintage stars?

JJWT got adorably ticked when I stenciled some funky stars on his briefcase but got happy again win he saw I made star cupcakes for the whole office? i am so officially obsessed w/ slash addicted to cupcakes.

my main goal this weekend is to dress Tridg & Alivy up in R W & B and snap a billion photos?

i heart blasting Toby?!?
i miss being IN parades sooooo much its hard for me to go to them.

I was surprise slash delighted to hear "the American way" when opening your blog. i wouldn't expect anything else from you. I mean, that is TRUE patriotism. You are the best American I know.

It sounds like your holiday is going to be SO.MUCH.FUN, despite not being in the happy valley.

Madame Palmkey said...

No offense but I can't believe you love blasting that filthy profanity. Don't you know that MoTab has a patriotic album that you know you'd be glad you were listening to if hypathetically an apostle showed up to your BBQ? I'd say I'm surprised at you but I've noticed you have given way to vain things of the world and with music choices like that I think maybe you're gunning for the Terrestriul kingdom? And I mean that in the nicest possible way.

Have the first kids offered to babysit yet?

Lindsey said...

Happy Forth to you, TAMNers. Your the best. :}

Dustin and Laura said...

Why are you not flying home for the fourth? After all, holidays are all about rejecting everyone eltse and being with just your family.

Unknown said...

{So fUn!} We live near DC but we're staying away cuz I'm thinkin it's gonna be KA-RAZY this year. (Brock's first fourth and all...)

O!, I LUV the new poll! I voted for the BOYZ. Can you imagine how much harder it would be to stay wrinkle free if we actually had to think about sirius stuff and make tough decishuns?!?!? Thanx but no thanx, I'll stay looking like a total babe (but not as much as you!) and let my hubby call all the shots! (I hear it works {gR8}!)

P.S. - It was actually really hard to write that. I think I deserve a medal.

R W & B. R W & B. What is that?
Sometimes, I feel so blessed for my ignorance of baby things.

Happy Fourth of July! I know it's the whole country holiday and everything, but I think we should celebrate YOU tomorrow! So awesome!

the Eggett's said...

Your life is so hard!

Catherine Agnes said...

R W & B= Red White and Blue. :-)

Dave and Steff said...

I can't believe you are missing the freedom festival } : The Jonas Brothers are gonna rock

Dawn Parsons Smith said...

We are doing the cupcake thing this weekend too! Oh, and the RW&B clothing photo shoot too! lol!

Happy Independence Day!

Charly said...

OMG, do you like "A War on Christmas" from Colbert's Christmas special, or is Colbert a heathen? Do you just not "get" his humor?

And "what the Festivus?" made my day. Guessing that the J-Dub is the Seinfeld fan in your home.

Jeannie said...

TAMN,

That's all?

*frownsmile*

I guess it's not like it's the 24th or something.

Anita Wells said...

hope you go to the fireworks on the Mall! Mall, TAMN!

Molly Cozzens said...

The song has bad words in it! Guess you didn't know... frownsmile.

hosander said...

Aren't you going to enter the twinsies in a cute baby contest, possibly dressed as Ben Franklin and Betsy Ross so that they can be in a parade?

Brooke said...

Patriotic wreeths, wood blocks and country/vintage stars? But what about a ginorm wooden plank stensiled with "My Heart is Happy My Country is Free" hanging on the wall above the door? And you call yourself a patryit?

Shannon Dew said...

Hope you have a safe and happy 4th!

Ashley said...

You may see Brock, but we'll see the Jonas Bros. Sorry TAMN, but life in Happy Valley beats D.C. any day.

debbie said...

I was just filling bad about my babies being all grown up and me not getting to choose what they wear for the parade and stuff. Maybe I'll have to forget the bc so I can have another one in time for the next forth of July?

Ashley said...

Happy 4th! Only in America could a blog as wonderful as this exist. Shows that this is truly a blessed nation indeed!

Amanda said...

just stumbled upon your blog... very fun! love your title. we are blessed aren't we? xoxo happy 4th!

Creole Wisdom said...

I love this.

For the life of me, I cannot get how Provo county can be SO patriotic.

Um, recall in your history books how UT had some issues gaining statehood?

And you gonna wear a navy blue tank top over a white shade shirt? I know ya are!

The Crash Test Dummy said...

Ha ha ha!

You've got such a bomb life. I wish I was obsessed with cupcakes.

Happy forth Tamners!

dharvey said...

You have to decorate the outside of your babys cribs with those country vintage stars. Then hang flags' all around the wood blocks. Seriously so cute ! My heart goes out to you, as your not in a parade this year. But, say hi to Brock for all of us. Love you, D.

Lola said...

The Joe Bro's are coming and you don't even get to see! TAMN! This is a major crises. i'll tape them fore you, and send the dvd to you in a bedazled envelope in R W &B

Brooke said...

Casey and Jeannie -- I KNOW!! Seriously, we all know the 4th is just a practice run for the really good fireworks and a much more important holiday later this month.

TAMN -- Totally agree. It is sooo hard to watch parades!!! There's just no way anything can compare to those glory days of drill team/cheerleading/community dance program/pageant royalty can they?

Token Asian Friend said...

How exactly does one go about making a star-shaped cupcake? Star-shaped baking tins? Bake it with five marbles?

Happy 4th, TAMN. America is so blessed to have produced a choice daughter like you!

rachie said...

You being in parades totally makes me remember when you were Miss Payson and you wore your tiara everywhere for the whole year and you would always invite me to come watch you in the 24th of july parades and see you speak about the dangers of getting fat to the little girls at the elementary school. You totally inspired me TAMN.

Brooke said...

I'm sure Georgetown Cupcakes barely compare to yours... and I'm sure they aren't as cute!

Mandy said...

Country/vinage stars are soooooooo last year, TAMN. I thought for sure you'd know better than that! :[

Cristin said...

I'm surprised you didn't go to Stadium of Fire.

HAPPY FORTH!
