What would you do if the kids were in bed, your husband was not home, and the doorbell rang at 10:00pm? I ran up to the door, peered through the peep hole, and shouted, “Who is it?” No answer. The peep hole was empty. Nothing. No response. I thought about opening the door, but I…
Prizes!
I got an e-mail from Tiffanie from Three Peas in a Pod saying that I had won a gift certificate to Build-a-Bear workshop. Yay! Now I just have to chose which of my children gets to use the certificate (or should I make a bear for myself??) Alisha at Izzy ‘N Emmy gave me this…
Wordful Wednesday–Adventure!
OK–I had my wordless Wednesday picture. Now for my wordFUL picture. I was looking through older photos, and came across this one. It made me smile. Not only do I love my family to death (just wish everyone was there for the picture) but this is one of the funnest and craziest memories that I…
Apparently….I’ve got a Giant on my side
The kids begged for me to run some errands today so that KitKat could babysit. What a strange feeling! I did, in fact, need to return a movie and buy some candy for the special project that we’ve got for tomorrow…so I headed out to Giant (a local grocery store for those non-East Coasters). I…
Aahhh!
I never thought I’d get so much satisfaction from a pair of slippers. My old ones were falling apart at the seams. They were so bad that they ended up straight in the trash. Not even good enough to be recycled. CandyMan gave me these new slippers for Christmas, and my feet have been happy…
milestones (does this make me old?)
Today was a big day for me. At Church at least. Today was KitKat’s first day in Young Women’s and AJ’s last day in nursery. Next week he’s a BIG Sunbeam in the BIG KIDS’ Primary. Sadly, he only made it through half of his last day of nursery because he was having a break…
Quotable Quotes–William Ellery Channing
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury; and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable; and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely,…
Merry Christmas Eve…I mean, Happy Birthday, KitKat!
Me and KitKat 12 years ago today. :) Every time anyone says it’s Christmas Eve, KitKat corrects them and says, “No. It’s my BIRTHDAY.” I can’t believe my baby is 12 today. I wrote some of my thoughts about today up on Modern Molly Mormon. Go check it out! Now we’re off to our traditional…
My heros
We received an unexpected call and then a very welcome visitor today. Our old neighbor (I’ll call him Med) and one of our dearest friends (whose family now lives across the country from us. Sigh!) had a long layover at a near-by airport on his way to be deployed. What a wonderful surprise to be…
"I pray because I can’t help myself…."
Today was a busy day. Really busy. Choir, church, dinner, back for a meeting, and a visit. We were out of the house from 11:45 til 8:30. As I was thinking about what I should write about today, and as I skimmed through my notes from Education Week 2008, I came across this quote from…
