I’ve been tagged!

My sister, Andrea, has “tagged” me (that’s the 2 of us together to the left), which means (I guess!) that I need to write 6 facts/habits about myself….and then tag 6 of my friends. Since I did my 5 favorite things last month, I will try to be different this time and maybe include some [...]

Take a deep breath….

Well, as of about 11:20 am today, my secret is out. Woohoo! It was really hard for me not to tell everyone about my new “assignment”….. About a week and a half ago, our Bishop asked me to be the Primary President in our ward (for those of you not familiar with the lingo, I’ll [...]

Best of all, Peanut Butter’s trip to Kuwait was postponed so that he was home for the holiday. On Wednesday, I was able to help out at Taco’s 1st grade Thanksgiving [...]

Jumpin’ in the leaves!

I sure wish the warm weather was still around! Still, the kids enjoyed some time outside today on their day off school. Noodle asked if she could rake leaves after breakfast…How could I say no? When I went to check on her, she was raking leaves in the common area to the side of our [...]

Drum roll, please…..

Peanut Butter started a new job today!! What a wonderful beginning to Thanksgiving week. It feels like it’s been a really long time in coming, but I do believe that we are stronger for the trials of the last 4 years or so. Let me tell you, working in a commission payed/self-employed job has been [...]

The end of an age

Thursday, November 15, 2007 By Leave a Comment

Tuesday was a big day for me. With a strange burst of energy, I made a hasty decision that the crib was coming down. Apple has been climbing out of the crib for months now and several weeks ago, Apple started refusing to nap in his crib (he developed a preference to my bed–don’t blame [...]
