I thought I would try out this slideshow thing. It’s really cool! This is Hannah and Sabrina playing on the playground at the school after the jog a thon ended. Hannah loves to play there whenever she can. Sabrina will too, I’m sure, once she masters climbing up the slide. [...]
This morning was the Jog-A-Thon fundraiser at the elementary school. Hunter and Emma did such a great job running! It reminded me that they need to do it more often on their own. They went to their classrooms to take roll, and 15 minutes later the whole school came out to the [...]
On St Patrick’s Day we had a little luncheon with our family here in southern California. Jeanette and Dan came down, and Chris, Tracy and Adriene came up. As it happens we are exactly in between the two of them and so it worked out great. Everyone contributed something to our picnic [...]
I have a new site design! It all started because we (meaning Rob, I don’t really think about these things) wanted to break free from the last design that was tied to our web host. It had some limitations that were frustrating to him, including the web address ending with “/blog”. Now it’s [...]
Rob and I actually got all of the kids into bed at a decent hour and watched the movie, The Bicycle Thief. It is an Italian movie with subtitles, so Rob was especially excited to see it. He said that there was a pretty thick dialect so he was relying a lot on [...]
Rob got a clip of Hunter’s play up on YouTube after lots of fiddling! The good news is that the next time we want to post a video, it should be pretty straightforward. Hunter is the one in the orange ball cap. I was pushing for no hat so we could see his face better, [...]
Hunter’s third grade class combined with another one and put on the play “Vacation to Mars.” It’s all about the solar system and mixes a lot of information into cute songs and a story about a family going on vacation to Mars. Hunter is the Dad in the play and did a super [...]
On Saturday, Rob’s office had a party for the associates and their families at Dave’s and Buster’s. It’s sort of a cross between a bar, a casino (only in decorative atmosphere, there’s no gambling or smoking), and Chuck E Cheese. There are some party rooms with pool tables and a little buffet, a restaurant and [...]
So, as you know my brother Matt is getting married to Ashley this August (the day after our 11th Anniversary!). I was thinking back on my engagement and remembering all of the advice I got. Ok, I don’t remember a lot of it, but it seemed like everyone I talked to had something to [...]
Our ward Relief Society received a quilt from another ward a while ago. It was a gift from a woman’s mother’s ward Relief Society. Our RS presidency uses it a lot as a decorative piece on the front table during Sunday lessons. In keeping with the idea of “paying it forward” we [...]
I am a full time mom to four beautiful kids. "Bizzert" is a word our son invented for dessert when he was just learning to talk and we've been using it ever since.
“Take all your bad feelings and push them down, all the way down, past your knees, until you’re almost walking on them. And then you’ll fit in, and you’ll be invited to parties, and boys will like you… and happiness will follow.”You’re currently browsing the Bizzert weblog archives for “March, 2007.”
