Mandisa

This past year I've re-discovered Christian radio (KLOVE) and I am loving it! It is such a great alternative to all the negative influences out there in the media. I keep posting about my newest favorite songs-- maybe I should just do one a week or one a month. Here's my latest fav by American Idol's Mandisa called "My Deliverer":

She's coming to Vacaville, CA this Saturday and I want to try to make it!

Happy Mom's Day!

Mother's Day is fabulous because you get to guilt your kids into behaving well. You can say stuff like, "You have to give me a hug cause it's Mother's Day!" or "You better clean that up right now if you want me to have a good Mother's Day!" Every other day (except Christmas) I have to come up with some kind of leverage on my own.

And you get lots of kissies on Mother's Day.

And you get to do this without feeling guilty! Yesssss!
Here's to 5 years of motherhood. Whew! Hardest job EVER! But certainly the most important.

RACE FOR THE CURE

On Saturday we walked in the Race for the Breast Cancer Cure in Sacramento. It was TONS of fun. Our team name was "A Breast of Fresh Air." We walked 3.2 miles and our team raised close to $2000.











There was sooo much excitement in the air!






There were many funny team names like "Here for the Boobs" and "Save the Girls."

Thanks Cori Ann for organizing such a wonderful day of celebrating mom's wellness.

ODE to COMET

Comet. . . It makes your face turn green.

Comet. . . it smells like gasoline.

Comet. . . it makes you vomit.
So buy some Comet, and vomit today!

Grandma Kari wrote a note on her leftovers so everyone would know they were hers.

So Emma decided she should do the same thing with her milk.

Kids these days! :)

Our Garden

Our garden has been taking off! We have tons of radishes and the tomatoes, carrots, peas, cucumbers, and onions are coming along, too!
