My Spaghetti Dinner





Well, lately I have been tring to get more veggies in the kids and Rick. Thanks to my Sister and Rachel Ray, I am getting good at it. My Spaghetti was a hit and I even made homemade french bread. I know- I am getting a little crazy but I am starting to get good at it. So here is my Family enjoying their yummy meal....if anyone want to try it e-mail me.

Spring Break???!!! (huh)




We ( the kids and I) went to South East Idaho to see Rick's family for Spring Break and what did we find a whole lot of SNOW... while others found sun and enjoyed themselves, we survived the blizzard and a hail storm that came to Teton. So we geared up and just enjoyed how South East Idaho weather is.....it was good to come back to our side and see the flowers starting to come out and green grass.

Easter 2008






So for Easter we went to the Sorensen for an Easter Egg Hunter. After a great meal the kids went on their hunt and to much surprise after about 4 eggs, Logan was done. Logan only looked for Blue eggs. Ella ran all over looking for as many eggs as she could find (with the help of Michelle pointing them out. Then it was the adults turn. Michelle was lucky enough to find the golden egg with a free movie pass (that we used to go see Horton hears a who).

When things get quiet Part II




So the other day Ella asked for a spray bottle to do her doll's hair. So I gave one to her thinking nothing of it. I was getting into some spring cleaning when I realized I hadn't heard anything form the kids and smelled hairspray. So when i investigated the crime scene, I found Logan with his hair hard as a rock as well as Ella's other dolls. I guess she is trying to do hair like me... so since then i have been keeping the scissors away from her. After washing Logan's hair three times i realized I need to watch the future Paul Mitchell a little closer!

When things get quiet



So we have learned with our two angels that when things get quiet.... something bad is happening. Case in point Logan (The Marshmellow Bandit) finding where we tried to hide the marshmellows. I asked Rick to check on the kids he Yelled "Logan what are you doing" followed by a loud laugh. Logaan just kept eating and when realizing we were taking them, ate them quicker and filled his mouth full.

Happy Birthday to MICHELLE! 28 years and still partying like a ROCKSTAR





Yesterday was my 28th birthday. So after being treated like a queen by some of my girlfriends, I decided to party it up at Red Robin with Gary, Tona, and my father in law. It was a great night! We had a cute old guy make balloon animals for the kids and flowers for me! I was sung to by the waiters, the kids posed with someone in a costume (which is a big deal due to them usually freaking out and running the other way or hiding behind us), and I enjoyed my ice cream (that I wasn't able to finish due to the bottomless french fries). It was fun being together and laughing and realizing how lucky I am to have great people in my life.
