Hakuna Matata!

Justin and I have had a tough year and just when I said things couldn't get any worse, our refrigerator decided to spring a leak. Thankfully we have a four year old with impeccable hearing...
"Grandma, I hear something downstairs."

 Under the fridge.

 The ceiling after we had drained it.

Ceiling?

I am thinking about just being done with having a fridge. Remember this from 2 years ago?

Here we go again!

My cousin Jaimee committed to another 365 days of blogging and reading it has made me realize how much I miss doing it but even more how much I have "missed out" by not doing it.

I can't tell you how many times I have said, "that's blog worthy" only to forget later on what had happened. Blogging daily forced me to remember and then record even the simplest things. When I look back on 2010, I am so thankful to have memories (that I would have otherwise forgotten) at my fingertips.

So look out, I am brushing the dust off my keyboard and camera!

The New Addition

Happy 19th Jill!

Happy Birthday to my favorite daughter!
It was fun to spend the evening doing nothing much at all.

Thanks for being you.

Book Reviews - The Girl Who...

A while back I read the first book of this trilogy and liked it. You can read that review here: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The other 2 books were even better and I am looking forward to watching the movies.

Competitive Cousins

Jr. Jazz - Dax and my nephew, Logan, played each other on January 15th. The boys both have mad skills. Dax is an amazing defensive guard, while Logan is very aggressive when he has the ball. It was fun to watch... so proud!
