I love this! Thanks Renee for putting on your blog!

Congratulations!

Today we got a surprise. The doorbell rings and Noah goes to answer it(in his underwear of course)with me yelling behind him, "Wait Noah! Let Mommy answer the door!" To which he replies,"I can do it Mom!"
Low and behold it was the UPS man, with this wonderful package for Nathan. Apparently Nathan had entered a contest to win a Harley motorcycle. He didn't win the bike but he did win all this cool stuff....

My favorites being this awesome leather tote bag, and the big fuzzy blanket.

A pewter pen set, a t-shirt, a suede baseball cap....

and these cool thermal glasses.

Pretty cool for a contest you forgot that you entered!=)

To One and all....

Happy Memorial Day!

My favorite things...

Have any of you read the book? Arnie the Doughnut by Lourie Keller . It is one of my all time favorite books! I know it is a kids book. But is it really...really? Anyway if you are looking for a little chuckle go ahead and order one for yourself. I am sure you will LOVE it! (and really if you don't...well something may be wrong with you.=)

I found this pic online. I thought it was a cute idea.Make your own Arnie, but my kids wouldn't want to eat it.

Little Nate's Mother Day Quiz

This was Nate's worksheet he filled out for mother's Day. His answers cracked me up.

My Mom can do many things! I think she is best at ...Laundry

My Mom has a pretty smile! I like to make her smile by... doing funny stuf

My Mom is pretty as a....Mom can be.

My Mom is smart! She even knows....Math

I'd like to tell my Mom.... Jokes

I guess the laundry answer has to be my favorite! (you know how I feel about laundry!) Go ahead and have your kids take it also. See what they can come up with.=)

Happy Mother's Day to all..and to all a good night.

So my Mother's day started on Sat. with Nathan making me this yummy salad. Trust me it was wonderful!
Then on Sunday I got cards, slim fast shakes, and the really cool homemade hand scrub.
Also I got an assortment of plants and seeds. Marigold plants, petunias, blackberry bushes, and seeds from Primary, and this plant from Little Nate but I don't know what it is. Anybody got any ideas?
