Real Housewives of OC Recap-(my mama would have slapped me into next week)

I love Real Housewives of OC.  I have watched every season.  So, last night I sat back with some popcorn (from my new air pop machine!) and watched the awesomeness.

Within the first few minutes I was beyond irritated.   If I had ever talked to my parents and behaved like Shannon's daughters, my mama would have slapped me into next week.  First of all, a letter is hardly punishment and secondly, this southern girl would have never back talked her mama like that, nor are my children allowed to do so.  

Now, I don't think TP'ing is a major offense.  Get real.  But, Shannon does.  Her rules, her house.  But I'm baffled as to why that requires punishment and why acting like a spoiled rotten disrespectful brat does not constitute a negative response.  

Moving on...I so want to go do Tamra's booty class!!!   Especially with cake after! Did you see that cake?!?!  It looked so yummy.  

Meghan should have kept her mouth shut on the Brooks thing.  Mainly because Shannon is not her friend and Vicki obviously isn't a huge fan so it was going to go nowhere but south.   And honestly?  It wasn't an oncologist's report, it was a psychic.  And let's for a minute suppose it were true, Vicki has shown before that she will pick Brooks over a friend every time, and rightfully so in my opinion if he truly is the man for her.  Which we know he isn't because they announced their split this week...but...anyhoo...nothing good to come from that.  

And finally, the birthday dinner.  What the eff was Shannon thinking?  Wasn't the time.  Wasn't the place.  You don't do that to your friends on a special day.  You just don't.  

It was honestly selfish.   Her need to get it off her chest and feel clean was more important to her than a supposed dear friend's special day.  Who does that?  

However, hilarious quote of the night was from my 11 year old son.  He came in on the tail end of the fight and says, "Meghan better watch out.  Vicki will be peeing in her bed in the next episode".  My child rocks.  

So, do you watch RHOOC?   What did you think of the episode?

Back to school....and Pretty Little Liars-Charles reveal!

Back to school, back to school, to prove to dad that I'm not a fool......

Bonus points and a snack pack for anyone who enjoys that reference.  

Today was back to school day.   And yesterday I talked down my doctor from hospitalization for IV antibiotics and instead took two giant shots in the butt.  Therefore, I wasn't feeling the whole giant fan fare.   Thankfully my brother, my partner in crime, stopped by and helped kid wrangle so that I could put all my effort into over the top lunch prep last night.  

I know it's over-achieving, Pinterest-inspired mommy guilt that makes me do this stupid crap, but I secretly kinda love it.  I mean, I want someone to make me a lunch like this!!  

Inspired by this blog post, I broke out the tiny cookie cutters and got to work.   

Again, my photography needs work, but if I made adorable lunches while semi-dead from a kidney infection, and I took amazing pictures-it might possibly be too much.  

Anyhoo, the kids were dropped off for their new year this morning, while blasting Welcome to the Jungle (because, well, that's what we do and I'm an awesome mom), with all smiles and ready to go.  I can't believe how grown they are *sniff, sniff*.   I need a giant glass of wine and I can't have any because my kidneys will rebel.  

After slaving over that lunch, I cleaned up and we all snuggled in our PJs for some family time.  Which actually means we sat around pantless and watched Pretty Little Liars. 

I had totally called the CeeCee connection, but didn't quite have it all figured out.  And I was never a Sara fan. I was blown away by how long it took to get to that point and then *bam* it all came out like water from a fire hydrant.  And I'm kind of unsure how this 5 year thing is going to go.   But I'm excited!!

So, any first day of school traditions in your house?   Thoughts on last night's PLL?
