LA Candy

Don't know if many of you know (or care) but Lauren Conrad is finished with The Hills. I know...I know....very sad.....BUT she is out and about promoting her first book....LA CANDY! Now come on.... when did she have time to actually sit down and write a book? And she said that she is almost finished with her second one. That is a bunch of bull! She just sat down with someone and gave them the idea and they wrote the book! Things are way too easy now-a-days. Don't ya think? I saw her on a late night talk show and she said she made up all the characters and gave them the idea behind the book. Crazy

Just be nice

I wish that I had a magic wand and everytime I saw someone being mean I could turn them into a frog or at least a nicer person. Why can't everyone just be nice and be nice to each other. Especially girls!!!!!!!!!! Girls can be sooo very wicked and they definitely have two sides/personalities.... Nice to your face but watch out when nobody is looking...

kids

My boys drove me crazy yesterday! I wanted to ship them off somewhere for the afternoon but decided not too.

John Mayer

This was awesome! I loved the whole performance

Brooke

Poor Brooke. She was a nervous wreck. I kept saying "Hold it together Brooke. You can do it." I don't think she heard me through the tv but I tried. I was really thinking..."Hold it together Jill. Hold it together!" :)

Wow

What a mighty fine looking family..... I loved the fact that the brothers wore a white glove

kinda a crazy one

The 5th of July

The 5th of July!

Hawaii Island Blog Photography

I have this one blog that I really like and it is a photography website from Hawaii... thought this was interesting and so different from my everyday life! :)

I am such a summer girl and luckily so is Jordyn. I love being warm all the time and being able to go get in the warm water everyday. I especially love the North Shore in summer... sure the weekends are crazy crowded, but the weekdays are great. The beaches are beautiful, the water so blue, I should be working but my daughter and I always seem to find a reason at least once a day to go for a swim or a paddle or just go exploring the beach.Look who we made friends with today... Over the last few days we have been lucky enough to go swimming with lots of turtles, dolphins and fish galore! Oh and we even saw a monk seal swimming around the other day! This place is so magical, so wonderful.... everyday I am reminded how lucky I am to live in Hawaii.... and I am so grateful to be here! Anyone want to join me for a swim?

just fyi

Spike Lee, who attended Michael Jackson's memorial service Tuesday, says watching the late pop star's 11-year-old daughter Paris take to the stage and talk about her father was brutal. "How can you even comprehend a young daughter bemoaning the loss of their dear father, their daddy," says the celebrated film director, 52, who knew Jackson for more than a decade. "We know Michael the entertainer, but to her, that's just Daddy." In 1996, Lee traveled to Brazil to direct Jackson in his music video, "They Don't Care About Us." Lee says he has never known another entertainer with Jackson's global appeal. "I'm not trying to disrespect anybody, Elvis or Frank Sinatra, but what Michael did globally – there wasn't anybody in the world who did not love Michael Jackson," says Lee. At the tribute, Jennifer Hudson might have sung and Smokey Robinson might have praised Jackson's talents, but it was Paris's tearful moment that held everyone riveted. "That was raw. Raw emotion," lauds Lee. "Nobody had a dry eye. That was a killer."

Blanket

I do think that Blanket need a hair cut

Speechless

I love this picture. Could Paris be any more beautiful??? Those blue eyes are something. If any of you watched the memorial...then you know there were no dry eyes when Paris spoke at the end. How sad.

Michael Jackson

Wow. what do I say? I wanted to blog the day of his memorial but I had soooo much to say and soooo little time. I will blog a little bit at a time though so I can really express my feelings on that day. So you may be bored and tired of hearing about it.... sorry!

Well...

Happy 4th! Nice rainy day! I have been cleaning and running errands. Anyone do something really exciting????

What did you do on the 4th of July??? This is what Katie did!

Miss America 2009 Katie Stam will be participating in spectacular parades and festivities in Southern California to mark our nation's 233rd birthday!

Katie will first serve as Grand Marshall of the Huntington Beach Centennial Parade and Celebration, where she will ride on a float through the 2.1. mile parade route. She will then be whisked off to Pacific Palisades where she will be a special guest in their annual Fourth of July parade.

On behalf of Katie and The Miss America Organization, we would like to wish everyone a wonderful and safe Fourth of July weekend!

Our sincere thanks and appreciation to our armed forces who continue to stand by America's side and for all those abroad who continue to fight for our freedom – we salute you!

Sorry again...

that I haven't been blogging.... I have been mourning M.J. death too...

sorry!

I havent' been blogging.... I have been working on that darn deck all week!

That is me

That is me with my size 0 jeans on building the deck though... lol

Not me

That is not me sitting at the Indy 500 with my flag and crown on. I know it looks like me but it's not.

The View

Does anyone watch The View? I like this show sometimes. But then I get really mad too. It's 4 b!#@&y women sitting at the table and not letting anyone get a word in. They just talk over each other and it makes me mad.

3rd time

Sorry if this is a repeat story for some of you...but it is something to blog about.
Recently I was up at Edinburgh and ran into the bathroom and there it is...... THE SCALES! I have a love/hate relationship anyway with these things...but what really bothers me is that they put them in the restrooms. I have also spotted them in the middle of the malls too! WHY? Then you have to pay to get on them! CRAZY!!! I will not get on them for free at home! So you are depressed cause you are at the mall and nothing fits....so then you go eat a greasy cheeseburger to make yourself feel better ...then go to the bathroom and see the scales! makes me want to throw up my cheeseburger.

Just another day in the life of Miss America

Internet working!

Finally I am back online!

Lazy river at home...

Indy

Went to Indy yesterday to get my hair cut and decided that I wanted to try (again) to take some awesome pictures of the skyline.... well this is difficult to do while you are driving on the interstate by yourself.... but don't worry! If I set my mind to something .... I will do it! Which reminds me of a superhero kinda... did you all know that I wanted to be Wonder Woman when I was little? O.k. now you do.
Will post some pictures later that I took.

Re: PARTY!!

O.k. you are all having parties .... so I should have said, "Would someone INVITE me to a party so I could go buy something new to wear?" HA

PARTY!!!!!

Would someone have a party so I can buy something new to wear??? HA

Fed Ex

Where is the Fed ex guy????

Mean Girls

Raising girls vs. raising boys. Have had this topic before I am sure! Soooo many differences....sooooo little time to go into details.

No matter what age you are....seems like girls are the hardest to deal with. Sometimes I think it would be easier to have "boy" friends than "girl" friends....make sense?

Jessica Biel: First Comes Acting, Then ... Marriage?

When it comes to boyfriend Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel remains fairly tight-lipped. One thing she's not keeping secret, though: Her immediate feelings on marriage. "I have no idea if I want to get married," Biel, 27, tells Allure for its June issue. "I have a lot to do, career-wise." Still, the self-described "very ambitious" actress says her feelings for Timberlake are strong. "You love who you love," she says. While the two recently settled into a New York apartment, it's not a permanent relocation for Biel. "I haven't moved out to New York City full-time," says the star, who calls West Hollywood home. "I'm here because I'm interested in the theater."
Seeks Dramatic WorkKnown for her work in comedies like I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry or on TV in 7th Heaven, Biel says she would welcome meatier, more dramatic roles – of the type that has gone to such peers as Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson.

The wedding dress picked

This (if anyone cared!) was the wedding dress that I had picked out! There are sooo many things that I loved about this dress (if anyone cares)... It was fun, classy, unique all wrapped into one!

I'm next!

I am officially next on "new blog" list! Yeah!!!!!! So excited for you to see what I have planned!!!!!!!!

Tackey?

It's tacky not to spell tacky right! HA

comment made me laugh

I loved the comment that someone made about my fav. pool! It said, "But can you swim in it?" Too funny!!!!!!! Who actually swims in their pool anyway???? HA It's not about function...it's all about fashion! Dana always says that I would rather "look good" than "play well" when it comes to sports and their uniforms!

My favorite!!!!!!

Hands down....this is my favorite backyard swimming pool!!!!!

No entry

When you look at the pictures below (mainly the first one) you will see that a no entry doesn't take a whole lot of concrete. "Waisted concrete"....

The 2nd picture is at a resort....I wasn't planning on putting anything like that in our backyard

Fine examples...

Here is what I wanted: What is really the big deal? I mean, if you are going to spend the money on a pool you might as well get what you want....right?

Kenny Perry and Dana Johnson

are full of s@#%!!!!!!! I wanted a "beach no entry" pool and they both looked at each other and said "No, I don't think we can do that!" Bull s#&@!!!!!!! I think Kenny said, "Jill it would use so much of your back yard and lots of concrete." Well who cares? We have a big backyard and actually it doesn't use as much concrete as he thinks it does. It would probably be the same as what we already have. Yes, he has been putting in swimming pools alot longer than I have but I believe this was just an excuse. I have done some major research on it and it is sooooo possible! So Barkers if you are listening....go for it!

Love it!

I love it when my justjill fans get all worked up over things that I say! It makes my job sooo much easier to do! Although I don't get paid to do this blog! HA

pool party today! Everyone is invited over right now!!!!!!!!!

A new dress?

If I had a party for my new blog then I would need a new fun dress to wear....hmmm.....

Yep

Yes! It is Dr. Steven Sunbury!

One of my many facinations

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osVn-5EAO9k



I am facinated my many things in life.... tropical islands, beautiful photography, Justin Timberlake, a good airbrushed picture, spiral stairways, swimming pools, celebrities, nice inner thighs, doctors and violins!

Check out my link above and then I am sure you will all want to come over and hear Karmen and I play our violins! We play a mean Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!

I am next!

I believe I am finally next in line for my new blog!!!!!!!!!!! I am soooo excited! I think I should have a party for it!

What is middle age?

What exactly is middle aged? Would that be 40??? 35??? 38????

No it's not dana!

Dana is one HOT sizzling 35 year old! Much much much younger than this guy....HA

Happy 40th

Who's is bigger?

Congratulations girls!

New blog

New blog is still going to be a couple of weeks. I am 4th now on the waiting list. ....if anyone cares....

The Hills

Why do I love this show so much? It is about nothing. BUT...it is so entertaining to me! I am not alone cause there are millions of other people that love it also. Spencer is such a jerk but makes me laugh with his sarcastic remarks. For instance....his sister, Stephanie, comes in to his apartment and has this cute hat on and the first thing that he says is "Did you park your train outside that goes with that hat?".... I loved it!

"I feel fat today. Do I look it?"

O.k. I say this ALOT!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe even once or twice a day to be honest. Anyway, most women in their lifetime has said this or something similiar to this. I don't think I can ever remember saying "I feel so skinny today!" HA
So what I want to say is... why is it always women who talk about this issue. You never hear a man say, "Honey, I feel so fat and bloated today. Do I look fat in these jeans?" "should I change?" HA Why is this?

Miss America

Miss America 2009 Katie Stam
Keeps America Beautiful and Celebrates
Earth Day with Green Starts Here!


Miss America 2009 Katie Stam joined Keep America Beautiful yesterday at the NYC kickoff of the Great American Cleanup.

The kickoff was an Earth Day rally to celebrate the second anniversary of the “Keep New York City Beautiful Coalition,” an affiliate of the national organization. City residents came out to support the “Green Starts Here” platform, as part of the national Great American Cleanup campaign. Katie spoke a few words encouraging everyone to "think green" and sang "America the Beautiful."



While in NYC, Katie stopped by Fox & Friends to promote the Keep America Beautiful event and and to announce that Puerto Rico has joined the Miss America Organization! She also had the fantastic opportunity to ring the closing bell of NASDAQ!

The phone

Anyone watch the new game show...The phone.....on Mtv last night? Justin is the executive producer!!!!!!!!!! Everything he touches turns to gold...

Stalking Kirby Adama anyone?

to my commenter regarding stalking Kirby... answer is NO! I am sure that Kirby Adams has not had any stalkers in her tv career! HA You just know how I love celebrities though! It was a REAL paparazzi moment for me!
Plus...I am sure it made her feel special and noticed.... and by the shorts that she was wearing...she wanted to be noticed! LOL

News Alert!

Katie Stam aka/Miss America was on Fox News this morning to announce some "big news". Well, I don't know what I expected but the "big news" was that Puerto Rico will be in the 2010 Miss America pageant.
Below is some info regarding this hot topic
How do my justjill fans feel about this?



The Miss America Organization
Is Proud to Announce
for the First Time in Almost 50 Years,
Puerto Rico Will Be Represented at the
2010 Miss America Pageant

Live From Planet Hollywood on TLC

Linwood, N.J. – April 22, 2009 – For the first time since 1961, Miss Puerto Rico will be competing in the Miss America Pageant in January! The 2010 Miss America Pageant will now showcase 53 incredibly talented, intelligent and beautiful young women live on TLC from Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. (The pageant date will be announced soon.)

“We are truly excited to welcome Puerto Rico back to the Miss America Organization and are thrilled to have Miss Puerto Rico competing this year,” said Art McMaster, President and CEO of the Miss America Organization. “The Miss Puerto Rico Organization has a tremendous amount of pageant expertise and business savvy, and will surely thrive as part of the Miss America program.”

The Miss Puerto Rico Scholarship Program will be headed by Executive Director, Joselo Sostre.

Katching up the Kardashians

Have not felt well at all this weekend so have spent most of my weekend in bed and trying to keep up with all the news. News.... not the same news that Dana and the rest of the world watch/read/whatever. This is Mtv/VH1/E news!!!!! I am talking about justjill news! So much more fun and exciting than the rest of the world news.

This is what you all need to look forward to this week:'

Kim has lasik eye surgery
Justin vs. Ryan!!!!!!
Sibling fights
Skateboarding vs. clothing designer/singer/producer

First swimmers

Nuts! Three crazy kids were "hot" enough to jump in our freezing swimming pool this weekend!

Miss Cheeks

Miss Cheeks I love you! You are truly my biggest fan and you deserve something special for that! Look for something "Special" at your door this week!

Names

Here we go again...
Telling things that I shouldn't...

Sitting next to my friends at the vball game this weekend ( I can't mention any names ...except one is known as TCO and the other one is a Dr.) .... I look over at this crazy coach and think..."Wonder what her name is?" Don't ask me why I think this stuff!!!! Just thought it would be fun. So I leaned over and asked TCO and Dr. what they thought.... TCO thought she looked like a Barb. I had to agree. Dr. just smiled. He was coming up with some good ones in his head but wouldn't say them out loud. I think he thought that if he said it that he would be right! So...you know me....I had to get to the bottom of this and so I pulled out my "PI" card....and began my detective work. (Actually I leaned over to the guy next to me and asked him) but found out that her name was Mitsy.

O.k. so now that I have told this story... when you were little...did you ever wish your name was something different? I always liked the name Jennifer. Just because when you wrote it in cursive...I loved the two "n's" together. For some reason it was better than my two "l's"...hmmm....

So please tell me what you would want your name to be....

DS card vs. Photo card

Honestly, I have NO idea why I tell the things that I tell....but we all do stupid things every once in awhile. I do...you do....your neighbors do....etc. I just may be one of the few that actually admit it!
Anyway... haven't developed any pictures in awhile so as I was walking out the door yesterday afternoon to take Cole to school, I grabbed my compact flash photo card and stuck it in my pocket to go to Walgreens afterwards. When I get there and pull out my card...I realize that I picked up a DS Animal Crossing card. Well, it will not let you develop pictures from it! That is the story of my life

New Blog

I am soooo ready for my new blog! It is going to be exciting! Lots of pizazz!!! I have totally designed it myself and now waiting on the "blog lady" to get it ready!

Should we have a party for it?

Miss America

Please do not forget to vote for Katie on Time's website! She is losing her 49th position!
