Some Sweet and Tweet Stuff

Thursday and Friday we had a husband/wife conference for Randy's work. It involves speakers, some activities and eating out. This is Pier 66, just outside of Anthony's Restaurant, where ate. They have pretty good seafood here, so I ordered the flanked cod and Randy got fresh salmon.

Makenzy doesn't like lemons or shrimp!

Our green St. Patrick's Day Meal.


It rains a lot up here, but we don't always get a rainbow afterward. As such, for St. Patrick's day I created our own rainbows inside these little boxes for the kids. It is kind of a metaphor, when the sky is dark and gloomy, we need to create our own color in life any way we like.

It was crazy hair day, so we started with the Princess Leigh look, but then Madalyn's hair was sticking out and I was rushed for time, as always, and I was trying to think of a better crazy do, when her buns called out "nest" to me and we created this 5 minutes later. I must admit, I thought I was a pretty "tweet" hairdo, reminds me of something Mom would come up with. She said that all day, everyone kept commenting on how cute her hair was.

Can't Get Enough of Conner

Getting some exercise.
After hours of jumping I've moved from the 90th percentile in weight to 75%. Hey, Grandpa looks like we could be buddies on "The Biggest Loser!"
Where's Waldo? I mean where's Lucy and Max?
Seeing as everything is about Conner, check out his waterfall. Won't be long before he's big and brave enough to crawl all over it.

Here's a better view The backyard turned out nice. The sound of running water is so nice to hear throughout the day.


LunchTime.
Can't let any food go to waste. Mommy says we're in a recession and some kids don't have any food at all. So eat up!

Feeling blue? Try some blueberries from Costco - a five pound bag is just under $11 - making the superfood that is very heart healthy about $2. 09 a pound and so yummy. Makenzy loves eating them - though messy - they stain her hands and about everything else they get on. We like to make our own fruit smoothies - a layer of fat free vanilla yogurt, a handful of granola cereal and blueberries on top! You know us - economical and yumma!
