Eat Pray Love

Just got finished with this great book. It was one on my book club. I have to admit I went to see the show before I finished reading the Love part of the book. I liked the book because of all the details. I think they did a good job with the movie. And of course Julia and Gerrad Buttler are in the movie. Who would not like a movie with them in it. Well I learned alot about the things are already have from this book. Like for instant I have the whole truth of the gospel. I know that God loves me. And that I have a blessing I do not need to have my palm read. And I have love from an awesome husband and love from my beautiful children and love from a wonderful family.

I would recomend this book. It was very good. I learned a lot about the places she went. It was all good.

Be a Tight Rope Walker

If you had the chance to try something would you do it. Well the kids saw this kids walking on a rope between 2 trees while we were up in Tooele. The rope was way up high the kids even went over to the park to eat while they watched him try and try to get across. Finally one of them got brave and asked if they could try. He said yes if your mom comes talks to me. So they all ran over and said they would like to try.

No Bake and Brown Sugar Cookies

We just love cookies around here. Jacob requested No Bake Cookies. So here they are.

On Sunday I made Brown Sugar Cookies and they were so yummy. I think I will start using my cookie book from now on. There are some yummy recipes in there.

Girls Day

I threw a Mom's back to school party. Where a few of my friends came over and we had muffins, fruit and chocolate. It was great to talk to them after our hairry summer. Friends really do make the world go round. I have great friends. I am so blessed to have them in my lives. So if you missed this party look to future parties. Because I want to get with my wonderful friends again.

Try a new Restaurant

When I was up in Tooele visiting Sarah. We had a few moments so we had the chance to go out to lunch. I told her I would like to go some where new. And she recommended this place. It was so good. The restaurant was clean and the service was great. Plus the best was getting to go out with Sarah. So thanks Sarah for helping me get 1 of my goals down.

Going out

You just got to love going on a date with your man. One of our favorite spots is Applebees and thier 2 for 20 meal. It is a great price and it fill you up. I was just so glad to be out with Jonathan. We had a good time being out together. We need to go more often.

Classic Italain Meatball and Spaghetti

This is what Drew requested for Dinner so I made it. He was to help but he had to run off to a soccer game. It was good. I got the reciped from the Food Nanny cookbook. The meatballs were very easy to make. A lot easier than what I thought they were going to be. Thanks Drew for a great choice.

The Magic of Ordinary Days

I just got finished with this great book. I would love to see the movie. I did not even know about the movie. Until I was searching for images for the book. I read this book in less than 2weeks. Which was great since we are discussing this book fo book club on thursday.

I liked the whole book it was clean and it talked and taught about the war.

I love how she surived and how kind she made people out to be. It really taught me a lot of lessons. For instance I need to be grateful for the small things that I have.

So if you want a great book to read. Pick this one up.

Sense And Sensiibilty

I just got finshed with this great book. We are going to read it for Book Club so I thought I would get a head start on it It was so slow at first. But I just loved the movie. It was so good I understood the book so much and I really did like the style of Jane Austen. So I am now encouraged to get going for the next one.

Group Hug


As you can see we had a great time at Cousin Camp we had it in Price. The only bad thing is that Nana had to keep going back to work. We had a great time going to the wave pool and the Castle Valley Pagaent the boys loved going over to the skate park and the all the children loved how many t.v Nana has. We helped with Kate and Emma get a personal progress goal done.So that was great. I want to thank Sarah for this cousin camp thing. I think family is so important I am so glad that she wants to share her time and talents with us. So thanks again Sarah for coming and participating in cousin camp. Can't wait to do it again next year.

Saying Good Bye.
