I've been envisioning this project for a while and finally got it all put together. I did end up getting REALLY cheap frames (to save money) and spray painted them to match my dining room, but they turned out great! They are right above our table, so we can eat and enjoy scenes of our family at one of our very favorite places....the beach:)

3 Activities and 2 New Additions
We had 3 things going on this Saturday...
Our Ward Emergency Preparedness Activity was first. I signed up to make cream of bean soup which turned out COMPLETELY DISGUSTING. I ended up not even taking it to the activity because it was so gross. But that is how we spent the first part of our Saturday. Then we headed off to...
Jordan's Fall Festival! We all had a great time jumping in the bouncers (okay, Mike and I didn't actually jump), playing games and winning prizes.
We were not prepared for 2 of the prizes we won! We now are the proud owners of a couple of gold fish...hopefully they'll last more than a day this time:) Tyson named his fish "Juice" and Kya named her fish "Goldie". Then we were of to...

It doesn't matter how old he is...
...he's still my baby!! But just for the record...he is officially FOUR--where does time go?! I love my little boy. I feel so lucky to be his mom..sniff, sniff.
For his birthday, I suffered through an afternoon of Chuck E Cheese. It actually turned out quite fun: it wasn't busy and Chuck E Cheese himself was there--Tyson got a big kick out of that!

Hey, I'm No Chef
I had the realization recently that I have been married for almost 10 years and I still can't cook...at least nowhere near as well as I thought I would at this stage of my life.
My Cooking History
Living at home Anita
-Mom cooked
-I learned how to bake plum pie and make cookies
-I could heat up a Pizza Pop or Eggo Waffle
College Anita
-Made mostly things from a box or soup or sandwiches
-Occasionally I would make a big fancy meal with my roommates
-OR my date/boyfriend would feed me:)
Newly Married Anita
-I seriously knew how to make 3 things: Spanish Chicken, Chicken and Rice Bake, and Spaghetti
Okay, so my list of "dinners" that I make is significantly longer than it was when I first got married, but now that I have the urge to really learn how to make more things, hopefully I will become a better cook too. Wish me luck...
