Synopsis of Us

Lisa is au natural. She likes to have babies at home and drink slimy green liquids with large amounts of earth in them. She loves the quacks and we love her. If you are ailing, just call Lisa. She will doctor you up!

Melanie is a little bundle of energy. She's very peppy and always bouncing around. Do not drive with her. She tends to talk and visit and not watch the road. Cuts a mean hair-do!

Sarah is crazy! She loves Diet Pepsi (too much). The group photographer with many free photo shoots for her friends. Many questionable eating habits that we all ignore, hopefully they don't kill her.

Emily is an overachiever. She never sleeps and wakes up way too early so she can pratice music with her kids. She loves the earthy green drink too. Be careful, she will try to poison you with sugar-free goodies.

Jen is a dental hygienist. If you want to know which kind of gum to chew (to xylitol or not to xylitol, this is the question) she'll know.

Lana is full of crap! Literally, her house is full of crap! Yes, just stuff. If you ever need any random thing, pretty sure it's in her house... somewhere. Very competitive, don't coach children's athletics with her.

Adria is straightforward. She pretty much says it like it is. She is our community sex-ed advisor. Any questions, just ask her, she knows it all.

Marianne (one of the tall, leggy blonds) is amazing! She graduated from college while taking care of her four children and working to save the entire Chinese orphan population.

Marilyn is a perfectionist. She has to have everything at a ninety degree angle, if not, she's nervous. Hopefully this doesn't kill her. Likes to scrapbook, spends a large sum of money on this activity.

Stephanie (another tall, leggy blond) really likes to work out. Too much of a good thing is not a good thing. Nursing is her profession (not wet nursing).

Introduction

Well, I guess we started a blog! We're a group of friends that have been together for several years now. We've introduced new people, lost a few, but have more or less stayed the same. There are ten of us that we call the extraordinary housewives. The word "extraordinary" being used very loosely in this case. Between the 10 of us we have 44 children (all under the age of 12) with 2 on the way. Yes, there are many, many children that we take care of. Generally we love them all and so far they are good people. We haven't damaged them yet.
We all love our husbands (each respectively, I mean to each their own) and mostly like to be around them. They are all good people too. I guess extraodinary women attract extraordinary men or is it that extraordinary women MAKE extraordinary men? Either way the men all seem to function on their own. We own an accountant, builder, car salesman, physical therapist, psychologist, lawyer, 2 grocery store owners, and a couple of business owners. They all do okay here in our small community of Burley.
Each of us extraordinary housewives are involved in our church and sometimes in the community (when we see a need for change). We are powerful women that are a force for good especially when we're all on the same page. As a group, we are unstoppable. Needless to say, we really are quite extraordinary.
