I am a WINNER!


For once it's not me repeating that to myself ;) I actually won something! I won a $20 gift certificate to SCRAPALICIOUS, a new scrapbook store in Rigby. I entered the drawing Krista held on her fun blog. Her blog mentions all the fun goings on in southeast Idaho. It's a good read. Thank you Krista and thank you Alicia!

Easy, laid back Easter

 


We had a nice quiet Easter today. We enjoyed church, a yummy ham lunch, hunting for eggs, and watching Enchanted for family movie night. Just a peaceful, nice day.

Mark has been sick the last few days and finally got a ct scan yesterday. It turns out he has diverticulitis, an infection in the intestines. Poor guy. The antibiotics seem to be helping.

Biggest LOSER!


I love the show "Biggest Loser". I love to see these people who go from so discouraged to so encouraged in just a matter of a few months. Who are you rooting for? I am probably in the minority. I like Mark. (not just cause he has my hubby's name) I love ultra competitive people. I have been known to say a few things I shouldn't in the middle of a contest, ballgame, or even a Monopoly game and then regret it afterward. Brynn calls Mark the "emotional one". Amy thinks Mark is mean. I just think the concept of the show is cool. The only thing I don't like is why put the women in a sports bra to weigh in. I think we can tell what they look like. That's a bit degrading to me. Amy and I want to be on the next season (she would never get it cause she doesn't need to lose weight) but I bet we would be funny country Mormon girls! Brynn said she would disown me. Ha!

Getting back into the groove



Until tonight I hadn't scrapbooked for a good long while and I had fun creating these two layouts. It took me way too long though. I hope as I get back into it, I can speed things up. :)Still, I love walking away from the computer and not having a huge paper mess to clean up.

Grapefruit Spray makes me happy


Yes, I am quite random in my posts but I basically blog whatever comes to mind (scary, huh) and I really wanted to share that I love Method Pink Grapefruit all purpose cleaner that I buy at Target. It's non-toxic, cleans great, and smells so yummy!

BRAVO! BRAVO!

Wednesday we went to Bravo Club that Qwest puts on twice a year. It's a pretty nice shindig. It's a semi formal awards banquet that awards the top sellers. Coaches have to go so I have an opportunity to buy a new dress for the occasion. I have to say hi to my friend Jeni that I just found out reads my blog. She and I have too much fun at these events, laughing and talking. (we mostly laugh at the expense of the winners that always indulge in the open bar a little too much and then can barely make it to the stage)I don't usually go if she isn't going to be there. It was a fun night.

Today "Uncle" Ken is coming over. He's working in Boise so he's coming down for the weekend. That is always fun. Ken is our single "couple" friend. Make sense? Mark and I both get along great with him so we always have a fun time. Besides teaching the kids magic tricks, he is also a computer GURU! Everyone needs a Ken. I can't wait for him to fix all of the things that Mark and I have messed up.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Something that doesn't happen all the time


Amy and I got our daughters American Girl dolls this past Christmas and they have enjoyed them so much. Today I got this email that they have a free shipping promotion going on. I love that! Amy decided to get her girls and their dolls matching Easter dresses this year. I love that idea! American Girl stuff is top notch and I love that the dolls are age appropriate, modest, and positive role models.

P.S. If you know Amy's girls, shhhhh about the Easter presents. :)
