My Fav Reality Shows for 2013

It's like watching a train wreck. You just can't look. Away.

I have filled hours upon hours of DVR time with reality TV.  I have to watch it when no one is home otherwise I get the stink eye. Even from the dog.

Here's my list of must see TV Reality:

Amish Mafia : (Discovery) IS there really an Amish Mafia? You decide. I sure hope it's real. I'm team Levi by the way...

Dance Moms: (Lifetime) These moms will do anything for their girls to be dancing stars. I mean anything. Love the competition. Abby Lee Miller Dancers are the best!

Here Comes Honey Boo Boo: (TLC) This is like Toddlers & Tiaras on Moonshine!

Vanderpump Rules: (Bravo) Waiters, Waitresses and Bartenders (spin-off from RHOBH). Total drama in food service. Except the guys are super hot and the girls are a hot mess.

Buckwild: (MTV) Remember Jersey Shore? Same thing but Southern. Watch it y'all!

Here's a little clip from Dance Moms. Enjoy!:

Out of Control 'Elf on the Shelf'

If you haven't heard of the 'Elf on the Shelf' you must be living under a rock. It's a great idea for the kids during the holidays. You spend the month of December putting the Elf in all kinds of situations for the kids to find the the morning. Kids love it. Parents sometimes wish they could make the Elf do bad things...So here is a little bit of fun from my Pinterest site. Here is my 'Rowdy Elf on the Shelf'. Enjoy!

8 Reasons To Be Excited It's Back To School Time

It's mid-August and that means 'Back To School' for most school systems in our country. Kids all over the nation are in a funk and desperately hanging on to those last few days of summer. Parents are ecstatic and throwing 'Back To School' parties! Here are 8 reasons to join in the excitement:

1.  We get to play the 'how many times will this bus stop to pick up kids while I am late for work' game.

2.  Who doesn't love school supply shopping at the last minute along with 1,000 other people at your local Walmart?

3.  Free child-care from 8am to 3pm for most of us!

4.  Stay-at-home moms are finally getting a little break.

5.  Love helping kids do their homework that even I can't figure out. Didn't I do this stuff when I was young?

6.  PTA Fundraising! I can't wait to donate all my free time!

7.  Meeting new moms who think their kids are so much smarter than average.

And the number 8 reason to get excited about Back To School Time? You are one more year closer to having your kids move out!
