Its no secret that I am further behind on my blogging than I have ever been before. The thought of catching up one post at a time was quite daunting, and just pretending like the last several months never happened (and not blogging about them at all) didn’t seem right either. So, I went through […]

A long time coming…

Well, its officially been more than a month since my last blog post, and very likely my longest blogging hiatius to date. It was not my intention to stop blogging or drop off the face of the earth, I simpy haven’t had much time to breath much less blog. To say that life has been […]

Character Pancakes
August 5th, 2009 · 4 Comments · domestic attempts, family, food, random
Since you all asked… I went ahead and posted my dad’s recipe for Pantry Pancakes on The Slotted Spoon. You’re welcome. It should be noted that the character pancakes from my “Grandpa’s Pancakes” post can acutually be made with any pancake batter, as long as its thin enough to flow from the tip of the […]

UP

We took Bridget to see the new 3D Pixar flick earlier this week, UP. It was a pretty cool movie, and it was kinda fun to wear the 3D glasses too! Bridget was a little scared a couple of times, particularly when the “bad guys” (and scary dogs) got a little too close for comfort […]

Today is my mom’s birthday. She’s 21. 🙂 I found this picture of her holding Spencer from our visit last month. I thought it was sweet. Happy Birthday Mom, I love you!

Grandpa’s Pancakes
May 30th, 2009 · 6 Comments · bridget, family, food, random
Growing up, my dad would make us these fun-shaped pancakes. I remember a lot of mickey mouse heads and vaguely remember a character with a large hat… goofy maybe? Or the wolf from the Three Little Pigs story. He got pretty creative with them. Lots of shapes, and lots of fun memories. Last month the […]

Pretend Graduation
May 15th, 2009 · 4 Comments · college life, dave, family
A couple of weeks ago we attended USU’s graduation ceremony up at the Spectrum. Dave walked, was hooded, and pretended to get his degree. He won’t actually be finished with classes until the first part of June, but they let him participate in the graduation ceremony anyway. Its too bad it didn’t mean we were […]

My Cousin, Liz
April 28th, 2009 · 2 Comments · bridget, family, food, random, tina
I have a cousin. Liz. Or “Little Lizzie,” as we used to call her. She is three months older than me… and as kids we got along smashingly. We used to have sleepovers at my [parents] house on my birthday, and since the next day was April Fools Day, we’d stay up late playing pranks […]

Grandma
April 24th, 2009 · 3 Comments · family
You may remember Dave’s grandma. I posted about her amazing fudge just over a year ago… Well, she fell earlier this week and broke her hip. They operated the day before yesterday, and it went pretty well. But she still has a long way to go. The kids and I went down to the hospital […]

Look Alikes
March 25th, 2009 · 2 Comments · bridget, dave, family, random, spencer, tina
After all the comments on yesterday’s post about our kids looking just like Dave, I thought I’d post some more comparisons. I do agree that both of them look more like Dave than they do me… but the side-by-side comparisons are still pretty interesting!! (Also note the side-by-side Bridget/Spencer comparison from an earlier post) Tina […]
