Makeup Post #1 Dr. Suess's almost birthday

Yeah I know I should fix the picture and rotate it. But I am lazy right now and it is just easier on me if you tilt your head =) Thanks!Ben celebrated Dr. Suess's almost birthday at circle time on February 18th. It was alot of fun and they got to play in "Oobleck"!!!!
Ben LOVED it. And yes I dug in too. The other moms would touch it but that's it. It's just cornstarch, water, and food coloring...but oh so fun!


So Bad!

So whenever I take a picture I use my camera because I don't have a regular camera. Then I straight way text it to my e-mail. Well I was just looking through my e-mail.....YIKES!!!! There are so many pictures. So that means so many blog posts left undone...whoops! So I am going to try to catch up. We'll see how that goes!

I'm green....with envy

So Matt went with Isabelle to her end of the year fieldtrip to the Hogle zoo. I am seriously green-eyed today. Although I am seriously excited for them too. Sigh....
Hopefully he will take lots of pictures and I will post them all for you. Then we can all live the adventure through pictures together =)

Gibson's

The Gibson's came to visit us!!!! Okay it was last month, but I just received these pictures (thanks Shannon!). It was so fun! These are our dear friends from California, during the good old Chino days! Shannon and I hung out pretty much ALL the time. It was fabulous. So they were in Utah and stopped by for the evening! It was great! I really have missed them =) Here is Jacob and Isabelle. They have been betrothed for years=) Shannon had him get down on one knee, I think they thought it was pretty silly, but humored us anyway!

Matt, Emma & Bill! She looks SO teeny tiny next to these huge men!

Shannon & I! Aren't we adorable???

Here I am texting a picture of us to my Mom!

Ben and Andrew! They were such good little buddies!
Well, there is our adventure. I wish I could have made them stay longer, but we will see them in California in a few weeks!

Squishiness

One of the 4th graders (I think it was 4th) at school pointed to my hair and asked me if it hurts when its like this. I told her no. She then wanted to know how I got it like this. I told her it grows this way. She looked at me like I was a wee bit crazy and said when her mom does her hair like mine, it hurts! Crazy kid! I love the random things elementary kids say to me!
I guess maybe it could look like it hurts...but I like to think of it as a soft squishy portable pillow that I get to lay my head on whenever I please. Jealous? LOL

Knit or Die!!!!

Ummmm...so yeah...I just knitted this! I know! I am amazing!!! Hahahaha...ok so really not amazing. Josh and mom are cause they totally walked me through this whole knitting thing. And even when I wanted to give up they wouldn't let me. It is a headband/ear warmer.
I originally bought the yarn in February cause it was still cold out and it would be useful. Well then I couldn't figure out the pattern and I decided to wait for more professional help (aka mom & josh. they are knifty knitters). They helped me last weekend cause we were all together for Josh's graduation (GO JOSH!). I was kinda bummed cause it is now Spring and I would have to wait until this fall to use it....but no sirree...Isabelle wore this today when we went shopping cause it was cold and alternated between snow & rain (would someone please tell the weather it is SPRING!). She looked absolutely adorable. I will get a picture of her in it soon =)

GO WILDCATS!!!

I love my Mother!!! And I am SOOOOO grateful for her support! Love ya Mom!
