The Blind Side

Have you seen this? Because if you haven't, you should. It is good and almost squeaky clean.

I propose a belated Josh day

I have been busy, so I know this is late, but I just wanted to wish Josh a happy birthday! This picture is Josh picking up dog poop out of our yard so we could have marshmallow wars at Mike's homecoming. The bag is full of marshmallow's, despite what you might have thought.

Picture Ideas?

Jeff introduced me to Akward Family Photos.com several months ago. And the web site just cracks me up. They are always adding new pictures, so when I am having a bad day I can jump on and get a quick pick me up. This picture especially made me laugh. Do you think that Liz and Mike will go for it? The even funnier thing- it looks like a temple in the background....and who else would do something so cheese? Crazy Mormons!

Yummy Salad

Yummy salad

1 small vanilla cook and serve pudding
1 small tapioca cook and serve pudding
1 small flavor of choice Jell-O
3 c. water
Corresponding fruit (drained if needed)
1 small container of Cool Whip

Combine puddings, Jell-O, and water in a medium size sauce pan. Bring to a boil for 3 min. Pour into a serving bowl. Cool.
Add Cool Whip and fruit. Cool completely to set. Enjoy.

* I made this with strawberries but my favorite is with orange Jell-O and mandarin oranges.

PLEASE READ- your info is out there...

I was just alerted by a friend about a new (?) website that she found that has an alarming amount of info on people. Just on a search you can find zip code, age, income, number of people in family, relationships to other people, etc. For a couple of bucks a month you can find out a ton more... I searched our family and have found mom, dad, Alisha, Greg, Mike, Brian, Blair, Adam, Stephani is listed as Stephani U Mattson and is linked through Adam (even says that you have lived on Wrangler street for 3 years), Josh (you are on here w/ a map and driving directions to your exact house and address....ARGH!), maybe Jeff, but I don't know your exact address. Either way, I have already deleted Blair's info and made sure that I and my kids are not listed on here. You may be okay with this, and if so ignore me- but I thought you would want to know so you can make it "go away" also. Love you guys!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMILINE!

HEY! We missed offering tribute to the cutest pig-tailed two year old in the world! I am sure it's that her dad was so buys, but since he didn't post it, I feel the need to shout it out to the world that we love Emiline. How lucky for their family to have such a sweet little girl. I haven't met her yet, but I am so thankful for SKYPE, because she and Dane both like it so much. I hope that as she grows up I can find a way to keep her knowing how much we all love her! BIG OLD SMOOCH from the old aunt. I love you Emiline!

Where the wild things are

I really, really, really liked this movie. A lot. I nearly cried. And I was frightened a little, too.
