Announcing my Candidancy for Woman of the Year

I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I had some epically successful days last week.

I managed to keep four children, under the age of 7, alive for almost 5 hours. I was lucky enough to be able to watch my niece and nephews for my sister-in-law Kari while she Christmas shopped. I was the most awesome Aunt of all times. I fed them a ridiculous amount of macaroni and cheese and didn't make them clean up a thing. I'm pretty sure that I put the Duggard family to shame single-handed.

Granted, my house looked a little worse for wear...

...but who can even notice a mess of any magnitude with that cute jelly covered face around?

As if it was not a sufficient accomplishment in my super-de-duperness...I also completed ALL of my laundry!

But not at the expense of doing Abby and Brinley's make up. I made sure I sent Brinley home looking like a total trollop.

I also made sugar free, reduced fat pumpkin cupcakes. Because I am lite, fluffy and delicious and had to have snacks to match.

The dishes were not as much of a success as my laundry. Neither was my picture taking. I, once again, completely missed some major events (i.e. thanksgiving, family christmas party, christmas decorating, family events). I never get the big stuff. When you are the party, it is hard to excuse yourself to take pictures.

In a final note of victory, I won a 5K race against Wes Griffeth, my arch nemesis. It was a fairly resound beating. He blamed his loss on a breakfast sandwich he had eaten earlier in the evening. Considering I whipped the pants off him, that must of been SOME sandwich (sorry Lindsay! But how do I not record my triumph?). And lest this picture be misleading, the race did not take place in my family room.

Hope your Thanksgiving weekend was as stellar as mine!
