Libby---My purse making cousin!

Eddy is so excited that Marcus caught some baby rabbits in our alley.

Eddy and Zannah were holding hands in no time! Eddy is so stinking cute! And Libby is such a good mom.

Danny---your wife needs a sewing machine! She is an animal. 6 purses in 24 hours!

To top off the perfect 5 days with the perfect company, Libby and I find out that we are related!! That is right, we are not just kindred spirits, we are blood relatives. I miss you already Cuz!

But, what do you do when you are sad company is leaving, you welcome new company in. My cousin Kiersten flew in the same day Libby left. I am spoiled!

Less Than 24 Hours....

Until company arrives!!!

Mean Uno

Marcus and I were introduced to "Mean Uno" in Logan when we were first married. Good times were had with the Trevinos, Neibaurs, and Hartleys. After we moved to Kaysville, we were lucky enough to find awesome couples to play with there as well. The bets got a little crazy in K-town........3 girls on a mo-ped at midnight, yelling, "The British Are Coming" while driving up and down 1st South. The sad part is, 95% of the time, the girls lose.

Well, last Friday night, we won and it was Oh So Sweet. (Actually, the girls lost the first round and had to trick-or-treat someone on our street, but nothing can compare to winning second round!)

Sorry, the pic is blurry, but we were laughing so hard we could barely stand up straight.

Thanks guys, I haven't laughed that hard for that long in a while.

My sister asked me, "What are you guys, 10 years old?" Come on, I was not doing this stuff at 10, I was at least 15 or 16.

Things That Make Me Smile!

Zannah's smile.

A beautiful and windless day!
My flower pots are planted.

My garden is sprouting......everything except those darn herbs.

Marcos the Funny Man.

Marcus decided that Zannah should start pulling her load in the kitchen (that's flour on her face)......

and start working on her yoga moves.....

and get addicted to pop as early as possible......

and sometimes, I can't even come up with an explanation!

Marcus is such a great dad and obviously the comic relief----I'm so grateful for that!!

Saving some pennies.....

We are growing a garden. It may look small. But, don't be fooled, I have carrots, peas, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, onions, parsley, basil, and cilantro growing in there. This is "square foot gardening" if you haven't heard of it before. 100% of the harvest in 20% of the space and LESS work!! Who can turn that down? And because of the longer growing season down here, we are planting a box each month so we will have a continual harvest. Yup, saving pennies in the vegetable department.

First Day At Chuch

Today was Zannah's first day at church. Well, most of it. Marcus was teaching 3rd hour, so I brought her home......we are not braving Young Women's yet!

Finally....

This "Blog Stalker" has finally started her own blog! I love reading my friends and family's blogs, but have always been too lazy or had too many hesitations to start one. The hesitations are still there, but I am going to give it a try! Now I have to decide whether or not to go private!
