What do you think?

Slight size difference... the "ivory" ones are about the size of my fist. Impressive though! I am just not sure how that will work with the "normal" sized pink ones. Especially with the minis mixed in.

What do you think? The top pink picture is what i have now, the one with the E is the one she wanted. Close enough?

What us kids have been up to lately

In a sea of Utah fans, Jeff, Chad and I swept in under the radar. Same colors, different letters! Jeff graduated from San Diego State University, I never attended, but you gotta root for your home teams, right? We recruited Chad to be a State fan too! He got into the school spirit just fine.
From our seats you can just barely see the tip of my hospital behind the crane. We actually ended getting beat, but it was fun sitting in the rain anyhow.

Utah definately has school spirit. Cool truck! Now if only I had brought a banner with SDS that I could put up so the U finishes it, sneaky sneaky!

This cat!

Meowzee said he'd help me study. He lied! He's so ferocious! Check out the fangs through the ribbon! So helpful.

Don't they look cute?

So it's a week late. My bad! Our "2007 Family Camping Adventure: Capitol Reef, Utah." Temporary Home Sweet Home! My parents took the tent on the left, my brother and I shared the one on the right. The last time we shared a tent I was in 4th grade, if memory serves me right. We took care not to get pine needles, sand and gravel in the tent. Every morning we "made our beds" and put all our Cabbage Patch dolls in their proper places, along with any other stuffies that made it onto the adventure. Going to bed, though, after a day at the beach with not nearly enough sunscreen on, laying on the plastic, blow up beds, well, it felt good to lay down. But the trick was to not turn over, or move at all. If I did, it meant the feeling of my skin being ripped from my body as burn stuck to plastic. Shudder. Of course, that didn't stop me from going out again the next day!
Normally, I am really not a fan of rain. Or cold for that matter. Jeff build a much appreciated fire, and well equipped with rain gear with hoodies, breakfast in the cold rain didn't seem like such a bad idea! There was a few telling frozen rain drops on top of the tent. Boy did that tea feel and taste great!

Rock formations took on their own personas. So strong. Patient. Bold and hiding a smirk, don't you think?

Jeff has a bit of a fear of heights; this was as close as he'd get. The delicate rain excited the colors of the valley.

I, on the other hand, leaned as far over the edge as gravity would allow! What an intoxicating drop! Oh, to be able to fly!

Such a cute pair of love birds! The pancakes turned out fabulously! Quite welcomed in a grumbly tummy! And, of course, Mom in her hat. The look caught on all weekend for all 4 of us!

My Mom and Dad really are cute together. Nearly 31 years. Cute, cute, cute!

We like Jeff better!

Yeah, it was cold, and yeah, it was morning, but how come the boys always looks sooo much better?

Guess I should be getting ready for winter

This snowman was stayin' alive at the hospital! It snowed on the last day of September, much to my dismay. In response, the nurses built a snowman, this is him the next morning, after we had removed the stethascope, and someone, or something had eaten his actual carrot nose.
In response to the wicked weather, I promptly went out and bought a pair of Uggs, and 4 sweaters and a beanie. I hope that holds off the rest of the winter!
It's good to be me, cause it got sunny and warm and the best part is that my parents are coming to visit on Thursday!

Getting ready for fall

It's actually been a week now since I went hiking with my brother. As you can see, fall is officially here! It was nice and warm Saturday, so warm I peeled off my jacket. By the end of the day though, it snowed!

For Sunday football, I made a decent lasagna, garlic bread and salad for the boys. Spinich/ Artichoke dip for an appetizer and brownies for dessert. I actually got a few takers for seconds, so it couldn't have been all that bad. Made for a great lunch the next 2 days too!

The leaves have turned golden. Midas is running around everywhere!

With Mom and Dad coming out to visit us kids next week, we decided to get Meowsie cleaned up and ready. "This hurts me more than it hurts you." Yeah right! Made for a really amusing day!

It's good to be me cause I actually enjoy baths!
