Did someone say La La Loopsy?

So after all the planning I had started for an amazing Elmo party for Maleah and a kick-ass Spongebob party for Mallory..  the plans have changed.


Because we don't have our move date yet and when we do find out will probably be leaving in a matter of weeks..   we wanted to throw both the girls a party, not just Mallory and too bad for Maleah because we'll be in a hotel.   That wouldn't be fair.


Soooooo   their party will be October 13th at the Clubhouse of the apartment complex where my mom lives.    Hopefully it'll be freakishy warm again so we can swim too.  :)

and of course because I couldnt combine the spongebob and elmo themes, we're doing La La Loopsy!   Plus on the girls' actual birthdays we'll be doing cupcakes with the little sugar candy characters on top.   

Google has so many cute ideas for La La Loopsy parties..   for example:

this adorable wreath made from bows and mini La La Loopsy figurines.

These adorable BUTTON cookies!      These would also be super adorable made out of fondant and neatly layed on top of mini or regular size cupcakes.

although this is a Cupcake-Cake a this is a GREAT La La Loopsy cake!

This cake pop is AMAZING.. i however do not have the patience to create something so labor intensive and beautiful that will literally be gone with ONE bite.    Nor, would I pay to have these made.. unless I won the lottery of course.




There are sooo many more ideas out there..  the cute milk bottles, Loopsy dolls sitting about and os many cute items on Etsy   If only money wasn't an issue.      Next year, we will be buying Halloween decor all year long and will be goig crazy doing a Halloween/Costume party for the girls.   It'll be a blast!

So this year, we'll be doing swimming, pizza, cake and fun games with cutesy La La Loopsy deocrations with my monkeys and all their friends and family   <3   I can't wait!

Divorce...happens?

Well it's been a few weeks again.. I swear I keep slacking... I'll write a few entires and then disappear for a bit again.

Between my household duties, the girls and packing etc. i am seriously so busy.

I dont even know if I've written about this before because it's really personal but in July my parents who had been together close to 30 years split up.    My Mom moved into an apartment in town and my Dad is still living in the house they bought together.  My Dad already has a girlfriend.. a woman he works with and she has two kids.    They're not living together..yet.    Since myself and my kids are still living here until it's time for us to PCS, they're living in separate homes.

I like the woman and her kids..  yes kids.   She has a 15yr old daughter and a 20 yr old daughter.     They're nice kids and dont know their real father.   It's kind of like my dad is stepping in as their step-father already.    Hell, he already speaks of moving her and her kids in after we're on our way out the door and how he's excited for us to leave so he can  "live his life" like he's 16.


My Mom took splitting up really hard.. mostly because she stuck in through him not being divorced to his first wife and being illegally married to her..  through an affair with my little sister's best friend's mother.  She feels like she wasted 30 years with someone who didn't give a shit about her..   Jeremy and I helped her move into her apartment in July and she's finally seeing someone.. trying to move on with her life.  

I couldn't imagine trying to move on after 30 year with the same person... after losing someone you thought was your best friend just because he didn't want you anymore.   Very sad...


Anyways..   I feel like I'm the middle person here.  i NEVER though my parents would be getting a divorce and because I still live here with my Dad, it's like im obligated to be in the damn middle. I want them both to be happy because everyone deserves to be happy but I'm still angry because even though he wont admit it..  i KNOW he was cheating on my Mom again.    and im PISSED that he's going to moving her kids into mine and my sister's bedrooms.  

Say myself, Jeremy and the kids come home for holidays..  can't stay with my Mom in her 1bd apartment.. Can't stay here because well..   it'll be weird.   Wouldn't want to intrude on his "new" family.  

*sigh*   I'm just at a loss...
