Zach Got A New Winter Coat Today

Do you see how much he loves this thing? And look at how awesome my camera is! It was pitch black in his bedroom. Zach was sweating like a pig when I finally got this downy thing off of him! We're going camping in a few weeks, hence the need for a new coat in late September. But you never know, this is Colorado, it could snow tomorrow, or say in June.

Did I forget to mention that my darling husband was the bargain shopper today? Found this $70 London Fog at Ross for $13.99. Nice job Ryan!

Have a nice day, and stay warm!

Why I Like the Princess Diaries Movies

-Mia is so weird

-I love Julie Andrews, and it makes me happy that she sings in the second movie
-Lilly is such a weird girl, but Mia likes her anyway
-I like the music
-Josh is such a dork, tell me again why she likes him?
-I like Anne Hathaway, as long as she isn't naked! :)
-I like the scooter she rides to school
-Mia wears beautiful dresses-lets just add some sleeves, I could take care of that for her...
-Mia Thermopolis is such a cool name
-She ends up being Queen! Who wouldn't like it?
-There is nothing bad in the movies (except for the one time with the nuns...)
-Some people think I look a little like Anne Hathaway-at least I can do the pre-princess-makeover uni brow thing really well!

Doctor

The visit to the doctor went much better than the dentist did a few weeks ago. Maybe it had something to do with the nurse also being Zach's Primary Teacher. Hmmm. Zach decided on the way home that he wants to be a doctor. Neither of the kids cried when they got their finger poked for an iron test. That was nice.

Blazing Star

I finally finished my Blazing Star quilt! I started it about a year ago, but it took me that long to get around to finishing it!

Cutting Nails:

Zach: You have to be careful with my pinki cause it's spensive.

Ellen: Expensive?

Z: Yeah, spensive. But you don't have to be careful with my big nails because they're not spensive.

E: Do you mean sensitive?

Z: Yeah. Will the far Grandpa be happy that you cut them?

E: Yes

Something to Blog About

I'm in a slump. I don't know what to write about. We've gone to the Stake Fair over the weekend, and have tons of pictures, so I can't pick just a few. I took the kids to the museum today and we had fun. We went to City Park afterwards for a snack and we played on the huge playground. But instead I have chosen to show you some vegetables. (And fruit). I don't know. There will be something more, don't worry. To all my thousands of faithful readers I say, at least you got something today! Have a nice week!

I Helped A Little...

After the printing, cutting, and gluing they did the rest.

See any family resemblance?
