Bellagio Bread

Last month I took a trip to Las Vegas/Salt Lake with all of my sisters to go wedding dress shopping with Whitley. We ate at the Bellagio buffet one night and it was super good. I ate more than I've ever eaten in my life. Macy was kind of enough to pay for me, and it was expensive, so I wanted her to get her moneys worth. I got this bread every time I got a new plate. They all made fun of me, but it was delicious! I love bread!!!!!

Warm weather and Sanity

I'm so happy that it is nice enough for the kids to play outside. It keeps me sane. Today, while they played outside, I was able to make a batch of cookies without any interruptions. It was great!

My baby sister is Engaged!

Whitley got engaged over the weekend! His name is Brent and he's from Grand Rapids. They are getting married in Chicago in August. Crazy, stuff. When she moved in August, she said that she didn't want to get married for a long time, and that she wanted to date a bunch. So, I didn't figure she would be making wedding plans so soon. All of us girls are going out to Utah to go wedding dress shopping with her. It should be fun. We leave early Wednesday morning. Heidi is going too and she is going to stay with Chad's parents in Sandy. She is really excited!

What can I say? I'm a slut

Yep, that's what Heidi said during Family Home Evening tonight. Chad asked where she heard it and she said on Arthur. I told her that I didn't think they said that on there and she said it was a commercial that was on before Arthur. What she meant to say was, SLOTH. It was an ad for a show with a sloth on it-Big Tree or Big World, something like that.

First Crush

My little Heidi girl is getting too big!! She has a crush on my cousin's fiance. She has this little planner that she uses as a "journal" and she tells me what she writes about. The other day she told me that she wrote "Eric is so cute" in her journal. Too funny. Then, she said, "Next time we go to Great Grandma's house, if Eric is there, I'm going to dress really pretty." My first crush was either Don Johnson or Bo Duke. I still love Dukes of Hazzard. That is some great television programming!

Silverware Engineer

The other day the kids were getting anxious for Chad to get home from work. Heidi said," Sometimes he has to make a lot of silverware and he has to work late." I said," WHAT?" Then, she goes," Dad told me that's what his job is. He makes silverware." It was pretty funny. Chad is a software engineer, not a silverware engineer.

End of the Parade

Today has been stressful. Owen kept getting into things, Heidi and Noah have been fighting, I dumped pumpkin pie on the floor, and then there is all the "poopiness" that seems to happen when you have three small children. Without going into details, today I felt like the pooper scoopers at the end of a parade.
Valentine's day was fun. We spent the evening prepping the kitchen for painting. Chad got me little pizza pans, but we used them to make cookie monsters-like what you get at Cheddar's. It was fabulous!
