We may not have it all together, but together we have it all.

Happy Birthday?

To me?

I got a happy birthday text from my phone carrier today. Might as well celebrate. Boston Pizza here I come

Hey I will take any excuse not to make dinner. Otherwise right about now I would be calling Amanda or my Mom for an idea.

So happy fake birthday to me and whoever else feels like celebrating and needs an excuse. :)

As of late

Things have been busy lately.  I had one week where my mom was kind enough to babysit for me everyday.

I have been canning.  I have done salsa and apple butter.  I have a couple more batches and then I want to freeze some pies too.

Sam has been diagnosed with asthma.  I think it is a good thing.  Now he can get the drugs that will keep him healthy so he isn't sick all winter again.

We spent Thanksgiving with my grandmother.  It was really nice to spend the weekend down there.  We hiked red rock and attended the temple.

We are forever hoping that Trevor will get his own agency.  I figure that is an old story on here now.  I am planning Christmas already.  What to make, what to buy.  I am hoping that if I do it all now then I won't be stressed at Christmas.  I think it would be fun to do a cookie dough exchange. I also want to dip chocolates this year.


Does anyone have insider knowledge on chocolates?  How far in advance can you start, can you freeze them?  What is the best order, batch by batch or all the insides and then dip them all?
