....to own anything nice when you have little kids? So I love my boys more than anything but honestly, it is impossible to own anything nice, they break everything. So the top picture is of my cute little man, but I'm also showing you the TV stand that we had that is in the background. It's just a glass TV stand that is wide open. So yes, my husband works at Best Buy, we own a PlayStation 3 and an X box 360. When we purchased these we also bought the warranty's, which was totally worth it. Anyway, we have ended up replacing 4 PlayStation and 4 X box 360's due to the fact they are set at reach for the little ones, you would think we would move them, but honestly where has always been the question. They don't understand what being careful is. They've put multiple discs in there before, they've put them in upside down, they've even broken discs in there before. It amazes me, I didn't think I was this destructive when I was a kid. Maybe I was. So when we finally replaced our 4th PlayStation and our 4th X box 360 which was at the same time, we decided to make the investment of an in closed cabinet to lock them up in. Well we had just gotten the cabinet so I have not had the chance to buy things to lock them. So the other day I was in my bedroom and Kaden was out watching a movie. About 20 minutes later Kaden comes into me carrying the door to the TV cabinet saying "uh oh mom, I need some glue." I couldn't believe it when I saw it.
Some how he was able to rip the door off of the cabinet. I thought it was cute that he wanted to fix it, but at the same time my jaw dropped, and my only thought was, " We haven't even had this for a week." Well I ended up gluing like crazy and was able to fix it, it doesn't look as nice as before, but that's OK, it still works for the purposed that we purchased it, and the next day I bought locks for the cabinet and I can only hope that the locks will help. I'll let you all know if it does.Well on a happy note I need to mention how amazing my husband is. He is in the PR program in school and is doing very well. Every year there is an opportunity for a few of the top PR students to apply to go on a trip to meet with some of the top PR firms in the country. This year the event is taking place in Boston. Well, this is something that you have to apply for, write an essay and sit down with a board and have an interview. Well they announce the trip and Dan immediately comes home and starts the application process. About an hour after he turns everything in they call him back for an interview. Well, 28 students applied for it and they can only take 8, 4 boys and 4 girls. Dan goes in for the interview and he nails it. They picked Dan to go to Boston for a week to meet with some of the top PR firms in the country. I'm so proud and excited for him. He is an amazing man and he works so hard, he deserves this. He gets to go in March so we'll let you know all about it when he gets back.
Thanks everyone for reading, we don't have the most exciting life, but it's is our life and we wouldn't change anything about it.
