Calling all book junkies

So in a few weeks I'm going to be spending a few days with a lot of extra time on my hands. On the beach:) So I'm trying to get organized before I go, which means getting some great reading material. I want a few books that are fun, light, and entertaining. Generally Young Adultish, nothing scary or too indepth. I would love some suggestions!

Just lookin' through my pictures

Ellen's Engaged!

For those of you who know my little sister I'm happy to anounce that she and Stoddard are officially engaged! They're planning to get married sometime in August after Ellen graduates. Congratulations you guys!

"Pay it Forward"

About a week ago I was on my sister-in-law Lanna's blog and she had a post that said she would send a homemade gift to the first three people who commented. So I did and and yesterday she gave me these great earings and it really made my day. So now it's my turn to 'pay it forward'. First three commenters get a little something from me:)

Little Surprises

I had a few meetings on Sunday morning and I left the house with the girls in the bath tub and Brent doing something on the computer, 'watching' them. What I came home to find. What a pleasant surprise!

Hurray, Hurray!

My new patio set at night after we set it up:

Too bad it's been raining for the last week and I've only gotten to sit on it a few times. Hopefully this will make being pregnant during the summer a little better:)

Joy School Grad

Laura graduated!!! I hope to be able to say that many more times. Of course today it means that she, and I, stuck with an entire year of Joy School. It's a great program and I definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to do a cooperative preschool. I love that each 'unit' helped her to find joy in something. I personally taught the modules on keeping our earth beautiful, hosted the halloween program for parents, and the joy of individual worth and confidence. But the last day of the program all the parents came and the girls sang us a few songs and each was awarded a certificate of completion. It was really cute. She and I are both going to miss it this summer and we've already got next september's schedule set up. Yea for Laura and Yea for Joy School!
