Today I had what I imagine a hangover would feel like. I got home late from taking down the activity and then had to work my real job when I got home. Got three hours of sleep. Presidency meeting. Running errands and packing for our trip. Soooo tired!

Homemade pizza is one of our favorite meals and on heavy rotation in our house especially on busy nights. We buy the crust in the bakery section at Walmart... throw on pepperoni, mushrooms, two kinds of cheese... bake for seven minutes and we have awesome pizza! We love it!

Spending warm spring days feeding the ducks... I love this time of year!

See the van in the middle... surrounded on all sides? Yep, my van. Some ding dong parked behind me (in an illegal parking spot) and trapped me for over an hour... I was soooooo mad and wanted to have him towed.

I finally got out when the car on the right left.. and I had to do some very creative maneuvering
to get out. I wanted to "accidentally" back in to the car... too bad I believe in the golden rule. Stupid golden rule.

The Easter Bunny came early this year. And he collects rocks like another little boy I know. And he's so incredibly yummy that I just want to nibble him all up. Seriously.

This is one of my favorite pictures!

This is so him... Chinese socks, daddy's headphones and nibbling on an apple.

I'm soooo in love with this kid!

Got to go to the Dave Ramsey (financial guru) Live Event in Dallas. It was sooooooo cool! It was a great day of motivation and good friends. So glad I got to go with Troy, Joy and Kelsi. And the cherry on top of the day was being able to hang out with my cousin Marylynn too.

I ♥ Dave!

Got a postcard today from our international friend Viwaan.  Viwaan lives in Switzerland and travels all over the world for work.  She always sends us postcards from the coolest places and we live vicariously through her. 

This week our postcard is from Kazakhstan.  (In case you don't know where Kazakhstan is (like I didn't) It is neighbored clockwise from the north by Russia, China, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and also borders on a significant part of the Caspian Sea).

We love Viwaan and her fun postcards that come from all over the world!

Little one is TOTALLY in to apples these days. Its by far his favorite treat. He likes it whole and loves to carry it around and nibble on it... Cute little man!

p.s. And no, I don't know why he took off his pants.

3.10.10 - Wednesday

One of those bad, horrible, no good days. Woke up in the middle of the night with a horrible UTI. My doctor got me in for "quick" appt... We had to wait forever, they mixed up my test results, more waiting... three hours in the Dr's office and little buddy was in MELT DOWN MODE! I thought I was going to go insane. Finally got out of there in time to run over and baby sit for a friend. Left her house and got to the Pharmacy 5 min before the closed and they hadn't received my RX from the Dr's... went home empty handed. Ugh. Can this day pleeeeeeeeeeease be over!

3.8.10 - Monday

Our gym has the coolest "Kids Klub"... Little buddy loves playing there and I love being able to go work out and know that he's being well taken care of. Hoooray for Aspen Gym!
