Beest Mom and Getting God

As most of you know Tom ate a peanut butter cookie while on a business trip a few weeks ago and ended up with Salmonella. He was on his back for 12 days, very sick. One day in an effort to make Tom feel better Miss M wrote some notes and put them on our pillows. If laughter is the best medicine then these were great. I always knew I was the "beest" mom and Tom need to get "god". FUNNY! Actually come to think of it Miss M is a pretty good phonetic speller - maybe she wrote exactly what she meant........

It's snowing like crazy this morning!

Sadie and I went out for our 5:30 walk and it was snowing like crazy - but so beautiful. About halfway through the walk, Sadie had so much snow stuck to her legs she could hardly lift them. I was laughing so hard. Sadie had quite a workout - 4 miles with huge ankle weights. I think she will sleep all day and probably be pretty stiff tomorrow.


This is her after she had been in the house a while and it started to melt off!

Healthy Eating

My cousins and I are having a health/weightloss competition and so yesterday I decided to try out some new healthy recipes. The food looked so nice on the plate that I just had to take a picture. It is Orange Chicken with Brown Rice, Broccoli with Lemon-
Garlic Crumbs and Citrus Beet Salad. It was really good - let me know if you want the recipes.

Sweethearts Dance

Saturday was the Sweethearts dance at Lone Peak. This is a more casual dance, Doodle went snowshoeing in the morning and then to the dance that night. She had a wonderful time with a great young man. Another dance, same picture - different boy!
