One Of My Claims To Fame..

A wonderful bloggy friend, the uber talented (THAT'S RIGHT I SAID UBER!) Amber Johnson (from Crazy Bloggin Canuck & founder/editor of Mile High Mamas) was featured in a segment this evening on CBS4Denver. She was talking about how influential Mommy Bloggers are.. and well.. Aw heck, watch for yourself..

Thanks Amber for representing the Mommy Blog Nation so dang well and CBS4 for giving the opportunity to get the word out!

Now if I could just get her autograph..

Girls Night & Jack's Beanstalk

Even before the kiddos came, DH and I weren't much for painting the town red. Our work weeks can be brutal and we're pretty much homebodies. Yard work, housework and some golf here and there. It's all about recharging.

I am sooo glad I used one of my rare occasions for going outandabout on Girls Only.. It was awesome. Auntie MooMoo and I High 5'ed and laughed until we cried. A shout out to all the Denver Ladies (and along the Front Range) grab your sister, BFF or fav Mama and GO! It's adult but quite innocent (if that makes sense). I only have one regret.. Gramsie and Nantie weren't with us. I'm thinking we're going to have to take them.

That night I had the great pleasure of meeting Amber, Lori and other Mile High Mamas. Darling Amber was our Mule and transported her hubby's most excellent pumpkin to the function. I'm fairly certain ours was the only table at the show with plant life (pictured above). Thank You, Jamie!! We'll take good care of him and keep you posted!

I'm proud to report my Mommy instincts kicked in and I pulled the ole switcharoo. As Jack and Jill slept I pitched one of the several non growing pumpkins for Monstro. The kids FLIPPED OUT.
This week we did have a couple little ones pop up.. Gee, I wonder which will be BIGGEST!?

It's Girls Night Out, Baby!!

That's it.. we can't take it anymore. We're strapping on the stilettos, digging out the Lycra zebra-stripped mini dress from the Poison concert in '89 and hitting the town.

Okay, maybe not. Although I know at least one person that snorted morning coffee out her nose at the thought of me in warbling around in heels (*Bren*). By the way, I have yet to part with that dress as it very well could come back into fashion (cue Stacy and Clinton from stage right to whisk me off to New York now).

I digress..

So, it might not be as trashy as all that, but dang it we ARE doing a GNO just the same!! Thanks to our totally cool friends at Mile High Mamas, a bunch of us silly bloggin' chickies (and my bestest girl Auntie MooMoo) are headed to Denver tonight to catch Girls Only: The Secret Comedy of Women . Afterwards we also get to attend a Q&A with the stars and creators, Linda and Barbara. How cool is that?

But wait, there's more..

To top it off, two of my mostest favoriteist** blogging heros Amber and Lori will be there. I follow (er, cyber stalk) them on a regular basis and now they have to deal with me in person. Hopefully no one throws out conversations that end in "... restraining order..."

Alas, there will be no belly shots or bail money but I have no doubt it'll be a rockin' time just the same. Hey, I'm easy.. if it gets me out of doing dishes for a night I'm a happy camper..

;o)



**It's my blog, I can make up any darn word I wish and use it however I choose...

A Blogging Perk

Thanks to our friends at Mile High Mamas, we were given VIP passes to check out a new traveling exhibition, Dinosaurs: Ancient Fossils, New Discoveries before it opens to the public. It is down at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science and we had a blast. It is a fantastic exhibit and I highly recommend it for kids of all ages! It officially opens on Sept 26 and runs through January 4th, 2009. We were also treated to a beautiful spread of hors d'oeurves and drinks (my favorite was the Lava Punch!).

I nabbed a load of $2 off discount coupons. If anyone would like me to mail them some, please email me at myfullcircle@gmail.com!

Pictured are the two very cool marionettes that roamed the exhibit. They rocked!



Thank you Mile High Mamas AND Denver Museum of Nature and Science for a wonderful evening.. I have no doubt the exhibit will be a huge success!
