Just another day.

Here is the photo of the lawn that I'm digging up. Don't judge, it's not a fun job! I also thought that you might like to know that tonight for dinner I made pasta with goat cheese sauce and spinach, and Kris... LIKED IT!! Yay!This is kind of turning into a food journal. LOL. There isn't a lot else to say about today. We played outside and I weeded. Kind of the same as yesterday, but different.

Oh Boy! Four days in a row!

Today was another normal day. The boys and I practiced kicking the soccer ball to each other. We looked for earth worms and rolly-pollies. We rode bikes. We rode up to Toni's but alas, they weren't home. We planted seed for the garden, and I managed to get a good chunk of the grass that is impeding on said garden ripped up. I'll take a picture of that tomorrow. It's actually a much bigger bugger than you might think. Here's a photo of some of our start thingy's . Something to look at.

Today was a good day.

We had some of Kris's family over for dinner tonight. Dale, Theo, Kim, Toni, Jake, Piper, Beck and Indie, and also our backyard neighbors who happen to be Related to Kris. The Woman is Theo's niece. So that was fun. I'm working on my cooking skills, the roast was not great, but I'll tel you what was, this... look up. Yeah, the recipe is called "The best coffee cake ever." It lives up to it.

These are the lemon cookies I made last night. (what's left of them) They're pretty good too. But not AS good.

This is what the boys do, probably more than I should allow. They LOVE to play the wii with Kris. Hey, they're spending time with dad!!

Ha! I remembered!

This is pretty much just a post so that I can stick with my goal.  Today was one of those days that I didn't do anything that I had planned to do. It was still a good day. We went to the mall and had some Chick fillet with Sandy and I made some lemon sandwich cookies that I found on Martha's website. I'll do better tomorrow. :)

Oh my gosh, my kids are so much cooler than yours. Seriously, no doubt in my mind. No really, your kids are kind of lame.

This is how Luci wants to dress all the time now. The princess dresses or her princess pjs. Don't get me wrong, I think it's super cute. But what isn't cute is that just a few minutes ago, she took off this dress and her diaper and pooped on the floor. NOT COOL. What kind of princess does that?!

Eli insisted that I take his picture while he "did rock and roll". This was the only one that didn't turn out fuzzy.

Oli is showcasing his super powers. Not sure what power.

Ok, I'm going to blog now.

I've decided that I'm going to post to the blog everyday for one year. Yes, everyday for a year. So today is March 31rst. That's the day, next year that I will stop blogging for one year. (Just kidding) But really, I am SUCH a lazy person, that it takes extremes to force me to stick to things. So this is painful for me, but it's on record, I will post to this blog every single day for one year. I'm not promising that it will be anything enlightening or helpful in any way. I have no particular skills or talents, so I guess this should be fun. There isn't really any expectation, except that I will post. My hope for doing this is that it will drive me to accomplish some of my other goals, so that I in-turn have something to blog about.
Other goals I have for this year are:

Finish the basement salon. ( That actually needs to be a soon goal, so that my clients don't leave me)

Get a good haircut. (from someone else)

Grow a garden. (and keep it alive)

Write everyday.

Practice the piano everyday.

Read the Book of Mormon.

Read three biography's of people who are experts at living. (People I decide are awesome)

Get food storage.

Learn to can food.

Talk Kris into letting me raise chickens. (This might take two years)

Invite people to eat at my house twice a month (or more)

Pray every morning and every night.

Perfect cinnamon rolls.

This list is probably missing a few things. I'll update you if I think of anything else to add. Hello, blog post. Yeah, just kidding. I'll try to find interesting things to write about. I wouldn't want to waste any who might look's time.

I've been weeding my yard for a week or so. I spend an hour or two a day. It's really amazing how many weeds shoot up even though it's been SNOWING. Eli and Oli have been digging holes in the border garden area, they say they are making homes for the ground hogs. Oli brought me a chunk of something just before we came in and told me it was dog poo. There's lots of that in my yard. That should be on the list too, clean up all the poo. I think that I want that to be on Kris's list though.

Pre-school Halloween Party

We just had our Pre-school, Halloween party at our house. It was a lot of fun. My sister-in-law Linda is AMAZING and helped me with everything, so it was really a good party. She is the queen of parties. I'm mad that I didn't take pictures of all the things she helped me with before we had to take them down. That's ok, I'll get pics of it all when she has her party. But I DID get some pictures of the kids with a witch! One of the ladies in our pre-school dresses like a witch and does the cutest segment where she makes witches brew. She gets totally into character and puts in things like snake eyeballs and dirty socks, and it smokes. The kids LOVE it. These are some pictures from that part of the party. My OTHER amazing sister-in-law, Toni, took them. I seriously love my EXTREMELY talented sister-in-laws!!! :) Yeah, Luci didn't want to do the picture thing.
