Mr. Magorium's Magic Emporium

Jay and I watched this movie last night and it was so cute! I would recommend it. Clean, funny and your kids could even watch it with you.

Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!

It snowing. GRR. I wish I could go back to bed and wake up to sunshine.

Germs

I just took a quiz and now have to sanitize my computer. I found out there are about 1,348,200 germs on my keyboard right now! That's equivalent to the number of germs on 270 toilet seats. SICK!
Go here to see how your keyboard is.

Sleepy

I have been SO tired lately. Between the strep throat and the super cloudy days I haven't wanted to get out of bed. Sunday and Monday I slept all day long. I didn't want to get up this morning. Does anyone have any tips on how to get out of bed when it is so cloudy outside it seems like it is still nighttime?

Dr. Mario

Jay and I were able to play with our adorable niece Anilyn today while her parents went to Spokane to go to the Temple. Jay decided it was time to teach her how to play Dr. Mario. She did great once she figured out how to move the little joystick around and around. Then she decided Jay's must be better and climbed up on his lap to take over. He's going to make a great Dad one day.

Relaxful

Disclaimer: Jade, before you rush to my comments and tell me relaxful isn't a word, please read on.

My wonderful husband has this theory that every person is allowed to make up one word a day. Once the word is made up it magically appears in some dictionary and he thinks he is allowed to use it from then on. This drove me crazy the first few months of our marriage. He would say a word and I would inform him it wasn't a word. Turns out he had made it up years ago and thus it was a word. Last night as I was saying our prayers I thanked Heavenly Father for a "wonderful relaxful evening." After we were through Jay started giving me crap about that not being a word. Thankfully someone had made it up centuries ago and thus I was allowed to use it.

Winner

It's true. I am a winner. Every morning on my way to work I listen to ZFUN, a radio station here in town. Every morning they do "Pop the question" I try to win but can never get through. Today was my day. The question "One in four Americans have one of these" I started thinking. What do I have that others don't? Couldn't come up with anything so I reversed it. What do others have that I don't? I thought I had an idea so I called. Busy. I kept calling and it rang! Now normally I get so excited I hang up but today I actually stayed on the line. "ZFUN, can you pop the question?" "Is it a tatoo?" "YES!" I think they were shocked that a genius had called in. Normally they have to give two clues before they get the correct answer. I must have run out of my five minutes of fame during my TV years and my brief stint in radio because they forgot to record my answer. Oh well. I won movie tickets and a 1 gig thumb drive. Woot woot!

Perfect Day

Today is a perfect day. It has to be. I slept in a little, which I totally shouldn't have done. I looked out the window and the sun was actually shining! I got ready for work and my hair actually looks cute for once. I was able to wear capri's because it's actually nice outside and I got some laundry done. All this before I even left for work. Then when I walked out the door the birds were chirping, the temperature was perfect and I was in a good mood, all because the sun was shining. On my way to work I saw the above seen. A beautiful blue sky, a vibrant green field on our rolling hills and a bright yellow crop duster. The colors were so amazing together. Then a few miles later I saw three deer grazing on the Palouse (it's what the rolling hills are called here). It was like a musical. I was ready for the birds to start singing and a parade to start coming through town. I am so ready for summer. This weekend it is supposed to get up to 89! Fa la la la la. So today is perfect. I hope it stays that way.

Some More Please!

We made these delicious cupcakes last night. Talk about melt in your mouth. I will never buy frosting again or make another type of frosting. These are S'more cupcakes. Chocolate cupcake, marshmallow frosting, graham cracker crumbs and piece of chocolate on top. The frosting is delicious! I found the recipe here.
