New Faves...

Okay its been a while. Thought I'd just share a few of my new faves.

Cookbook.... This one is called The Big Cook. Great idea of pre-made frozen meals; they've done all the work for you. You gather a couple friends and make enough meals to last the month or more....

Fave DVD Movie.... August Rush. I've watched this 2-3 times this past weekend. Sadly I've missed the first 15 min every time but it is a feel-gooder; great for all ages.

Fave Show (s).... The Big Give. I am an Oprah fan. Big Time. Love the idea of seeing good things happen to good people. Big Brother 9 OK this maybe kinda trashy... but I love it. I blame it all on my family--every summer at the cabin that is what everyone watches, even when I wasn't there I watched it cuz I knew my family was watching it at the same time.... now I am completely addicted.

Love this idea..... Create-a-Cookbook. You could totally do this as a digital design, but this is easy and all ready to create.

Love this place....Humpty's Restaurant in GP.... Why? Because today they let 22 little preschoolers, who have been playing "restaurant" at preschool, enjoy a field trip to their restaurant. They met at the restaurant to make their own pancakes and juice. Sit at the tables , do coloring and have Humpty Dumpty tattoos on their arms. Taggart had the best time

Love my 2 angels....2 gals from church stopped by today with a wonderful surprise & agreed to SAVE me---{ I am in charge of the meal for our missionary's Zone Conference. I had it all covered, a pasta bar similar to what I had done last week for Relief Society. But got an unexpected call that a special guest--General Authority would be coming and they wanted the meal extra special.....} So we're planning a turkey dinner for Easter, including decorations...which I need to get organized tonight.

Scott had the kids most of the day so mom could have a little break. They played in the wet soggy grass and got nice and wet at the park; did a little shopping for milk and bread (& a dinosaur transformer reward for Tagg); then they got home and mom went to her photography class; so Dad got everyone asleep. Scott was taking sleeping Tagg to bed, when he knocked his head against the rail of this bed and Tagg woke up. He's been up with me ever since. He's been making crafts; a new bed for his dino; drawing pictures of stong men, and " strong big guys who have the biggest muscles". It is now 11pm and time for him to goto bed.

You are such a busy girl! I know I always say that, but I'm astounded how much you do and how little you sleep. Is that the secret - no sleep? I turn into super evil mom with days of no sleep.

I just watched August Rush today on a flight. We flew back from Sydney today and I was asleep for the beginning but saw most of it. It was so heartwarming. I loved it.
