California Here We Come

We are headed for Cali! And just in time - it got COLD here on Monday. A storm blew in and the temperature dropped 20 degrees in less than 30 minutes. I guess that's why they say that if you don't like the weather in Texas, just wait a minute - it will change! We had fun but are excited to be headed to visit Monika. I see a theme with the hostess names! Kristin and Kendall were sad to see us go (of course - everyone needs a Diva in their life!) but I hear that Monika has some adorable grandkids for us to meet! Now if someone will just buy us some first class tickets - traveling in a box is NOT very Diva-like.

Pumpkin Patch

On Sunday, we all went to the Oil Ranch to enjoy the beautiful weather and see the pumpkin patch. Only it isn't really a pumkin patch. They bring in a bunch of pumpkins and lay them on the ground and tell the kiddos that it is a pumpkin patch. ??? Oh, well, it was still a fun day! The Oil Ranch is a working farm, so we went on a hayride to feed the cows (luckily, Mona kept Dude and I in her lovely Sam Moon tote. Diva's DO NOT feed cows!!!) Kristin and Kendall milked a cow and took a pony ride. Once the livestock was out of the picture, Dude and I came out of the tote for a train ride. What a fun day!

Girls Night Out ends with a Catfight

So on Saturday night, Mona had plans to go out with her neighbors, Cindi and Paula to celebrate Paula's birthday. She told me that I would get to go - but that Dude couldn't come - it was Girls' Night Out. We were going for Mexican food and Margarita's and Dude was acting quite dramatic about the fact that he couldn't come. I tried to explain how important Girl's Night Out is for moms - but he just stomped off pouting. So we headed to Los Cucos and sat outside on the patio. It was a beautiful evening! After dinner, we headed back to Paula's for one of her special Pomegranate Margaritas. We called it a night about 10 PM (boy - those mom's have really lost their party mojo's!) and I got home to find that tramp Princess Island Barbie putting the moves on Dude!! She tried to give me some BS story about her being a massage therapist. Yeah, right! After I did a little butt kickin, she left and Dude apoligized. Let's just say we definately made up!!

Archivers and a Little Pampering

So after dragging me out of the bed before daylight and taking Kristin and Kendall to school (Diva's DO NOT do carpools!) Mona promised me a trip to Archivers and a little pampering to make up for all of the UNdiva-like chores that she had subjected me to. Archivers helped make up for it! Wow - there was BLING everywhere!! A Diva's favorite! Stickles in every color, blingy embellies, and I got to sniff the new Basic Grey Christmas line "Figgy Pudding". Mmmmmmmm! After we did the carpool thing again (boy, does that get old fast!) We headed to the Salon for a new 'do. Kristin really knows how to make a Diva feel pampered! I could get used to this!

I Have Arrived in Texas!

I am in Houston, Texas at Monak2's house. I arrived just in time to celebrate Kendall's 4th birthday. I love birthday cake!! You know that birthday cake has no calories, right? Mona showed Dude and me where we will be staying. NICE! We have our own balcony and fireplace (although why they have a fireplace in Houston, I don't know!) It is so unfortunate that the last resident who lived here had some sort of tragic accident. But that is why it is available for us now!
