Caramel Apples

Last week Bridget and I made caramel apples. She helped me melt the caramel in the pan, and we dipped them in and drizzled some chocolate, or rolled them in nuts. And after we finished… We dipped our fingers in the leftover melted chocolate and then in the nuts. And we licked the caramel spoon […]

I haven’t done a post like this for awhile. Since I have far more pictures than I have time to write about them, I thought it would be a great opportunity. They say a picture is worth 1,000 words. Here are ten. I added captions… but what do they say to you??? “I can do […]

I was awaken to the sound of Bridget calling “Mom. Mom. Help” at 2:30 a.m. the other day. When I went in to investigate the cause of her outcry she informed me that she was “squishing” something. I was a little confused, but upon further investigation I found that she was laying on top of […]

You may remember my last post about Conference and toddlers, it came 6 months ago just after the last General Conference. I went back and read that post as I was preparing for this one, and I have to say that I was able to listen to the talks significantly better this time around. Amazing […]

A week ago, Sunday, we were sitting in sacrament meeting and Bridget was busy doodling on her “draw,” when out of the blue she held it up and said, “Look, I drew an ‘M’ like Old McDonald’s.” It was the first time she had written an “M” with the intent of making an “M” – […]

Smash ’em mom!
September 23rd, 2008 · 2 Comments · bridget, random
Last Saturday we were driving and I stopped to let a couple of pedestrians pass. As I did, Bridget yelled from the backseat, “smash ’em mom.” “What??,” I asked. “Smash ’em. Just run ’em over.” As you can imagine, I was just a tiny bit confused and concerned at her comment. The conversation continued… T: […]

Encounter with a Cop
September 22nd, 2008 · 7 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, random
Bridget and I were out for a walk last Friday morning when we saw a police car sitting on the side of the road. The officer inside was clocking people’s speed. As we passed by Bridget became a bit interested in the police car and the idea that there was actually a police officer inside. […]

Computer Room “5S” Project
September 18th, 2008 · 8 Comments · a day in the life, bridget, college life, dave, domestic attempts, random, tina
This past weekend we tackled what was the messiest and most cluttered room in our house. Our computer room. Dave and I are both pretty big computer geeks, each in our own way. So over the few years we’ve been married we’ve managed to collect all sorts of parts and gadgets and miscellaneous computer related […]
