I love this little sign that sits in my window sill... so why is the message so hard for me to remember sometimes?

A scary night as we listened to the sirens and waited out the tornado's in the bathroom (the safest room in our house). Joey kept calling from work with updates and I was so happy when he finally got home  safe and sound (at midnight). Oh the joy of living in tornado country!

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.
