Birthday Girl!

Emma got to wear the birthday hat at school, and she didn't even tell me!!! I found out because her teacher sent home this picture the next day. I don't know about anybody else, but I would be totally excited about wearing the birthday hat. I guess Emma's too cool for that, though...

Emma's Birthday Cake

Ta-da! Princess Fiona (in case you couldn't tell). Emma insisted that there be a red rose on her cake also. So, voila! Not bad for a beginner.

Emma's Artwork

While going through some boxes yesterday, I found some copies of one of Chad's navy pics; so I gave one to Emma and one to Novalee. Emma ran off with it and came back so show me the hearts she had drawn around him. Too cute!



Then while I was changing Kurt, Emma comes in and asks me if the "e" goes after the "v" in "love". This is what she was writing on the back (with a tiny bit of help from Mommy).

Novalee actually sat still! If you don't believe me, just watch the video. I have proof!

Yummy Easter Recipe!

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

I am so disappointed that Gina Glocksen was voted off American Idol this week! That was so wrong. Sanjaya Malakar and Haley Scarnato should have been voted off way before her. Don't give up, Gina! You rock!

My nose is the poster child for rhinoplasty....

So yesterday, I went to get a consult from a plastic surgeon to remove a cyst from my inner eye. While sitting in the waiting room, I picked up one of their pamphlets...on rhinoplasty (not that I would ever do this, but I hate my nose). Lo and behold! my nose is right on the front. As if I didn't hate my nose enough already...Check it out.


And apparently, this is how my nose is supposed to look...











So not cool!

Deal or No Deal

I played the online game of Deal or No Deal for the first time last night, and guess what...?


Shucks!

The Black Thumb Runs in the Family

So in Primary at church two weeks ago, the children plant seeds or beans (don't know which) to take home and grow. Well, Emma has been watering this little seed faithfully for the past two weeks with no results. So I decided to see what was up this reluctant little seed/bean. After dumping all the dirt out into a bowl, I discovered there was no seed, just dirt. So yeah, Emma's been watering dirt for the past two weeks. The curse contintues!

I figure Chad and I will just sneak a seed/bean in there when she's asleep, and hopefully it will grow soon. I just can't stand to crush her little hopes of growing a plant all by herself. She needs to see the reward after all that watering!

Anybody have any ideas for a fast-growing plant. Where would I get a bean? Can you use the dried beans at the store or do you have to find them fresh somewhere? Help!

I'm a Minority!!!

I just heard on the news that 51% of women are single! And most of them are divorced or don't want to get married. C'mon ladies, men aren't all that bad.

Since my favorite color is orange...

You are Apricot

Soft and sweet, over time you let your provocative nature shine through. You are definitely unconventional, but you don't broadcast it. You offer people a fresh perspective on life - so fresh that it can be shocking!

New Year's Resolutions

Okay, since I've been accused of being a "Slogger" (slacker + blogger), I decided that I had better post something. So here are my New Year's resolutions:

1. Drink at least 2 quarts of water a day (I'm nursing).
2. Do scripture study EVERY day with both Chad and the girls.
3. Wake up at 7 am every week day.
4. Get the kids on a consistent schedule.

So what are yours?
