Pancake Puffs




NO MORE Infomercials!!

Jayden has been cut off from tv!!
All around the house I find little notes with 1-800 #'s on them in Jayden's hand writing. When I ask him what the number is for his answer is always for another product we just have to have! NOT!
For Mother's Day, I told Jay to just let the kids pick out my present from them. WRONG thing to do! I ended up with the Buxton Organizer. The purse that can hold everything including the kitchen sink! The selling point for Jayden was the special pocket for my cell phone - right in the middle of my chest! He was so excited to tell me I would never miss another call! Well, he was right, I didn't miss any calls. However, I lost the fob I need to get into my office. After losing 2 fobs and $30 later to replace them, I gave up the Buxton Organizer - finally finding my 2 lost fobs in the secret pocket!
Next came the Pancake Puffer. Doesn't it look like so cool! How fun! A batch of pancakes now takes about an hour to cook. But as you can see Jayden and Kyrste are very proud of their puffs! The other day while at Bed, Bath & Beyond, Jayden was able to give me all the selling points of every "as seen on TV" product in the store.
That's when I finally cut him off!

Work in Process





This post is for my sister, Sheryl and her family. They came out to visit for Christmas and worked a ton on our house which is still not totally finished! As you can see, the yard is still not done - but we did get the hoop up! Maybe that's why the yard is not done. However, since December, a lot has been accomplished such as stairs in the garage and off our deck!! Yeah!

Jaydawg!


Jayden finally got his summer hair cut. Prior to the full buzz, he thought he would try the mohawk look like his friend, Ashby had not too long ago. Now the 2 of them look like twins and I love 'em both!

Olympics 2008


We are so loving the Olympics! I thought I was punishing the kids when I told them the only tv they can watch for the next 2 weeks is the Olympics. (I think Jayden would be a Disney channel couch potato if I let him!) Ha - they were tickled - they love it! Kyrsten and I watched the opening ceremonies and loved every second of it! Go Team USA!

Consumed!

I am addicted! I love Breaking Dawn! All I want to do is read! I have it with me everywhere I go to sneak in a page here and there. I read at red lights. I read in line at the drive thru. I read until I fall asleep on the book! I planned so many things to get done during my 2.5 week break from school and all I can think about is finishing this book!

One Down.....................


I hope I never have to open this book again! Wow! This class sucked! I wish I could think of a nicer way to state the obvious - but I can't! I am finally done with summer semester!!! My final last night rocked!! One down - and I hate to think about how many more are left to go!
Actually, I have absolutely loved going back to school. Biology is not my favorite subject and my professor was horrible - but all in all I LOVE IT!!
