This is for you Christopher....

We finally had our first corndogs at Disneyland. Christopher was raving about them in India. After waiting almost 10 minutes in line we were able to try our first taste of the "amazing corndogs". They are yummy and worth the wait. Thank you for the tip Christopher!

Watercolor class

I signed up the boys for a watercolor class. The class was small and Matthew and Justin ended up getting a two hour private lesson. Matthew loves to draw and paint. I'm hoping to continue with art classes for both of them. Here are their masterpieces.

Huntington Library

A few weeks ago my mom and I took the boys to the Huntinton Library. I had never been there before and was in awe of the beauty. I'm hoping to go back without the boys so I don't spend most of my time in the kids' garden getting wet. Here are a few pictures of our day.

Happy Earth Day 2008!

Over the past few months I have been trying to change what I feed my family and what I am bringing into our home (I still love my Diet Coke....one step at a time). With Justin's Alopecia acting up I'm trying to do more. I cook with "whole" foods and try and avoid all the added junk.

Now the boys and I are working on taking care of our planet. It's the only one God has given us and we need to take care of it. Here are a few things we are doing:

* starting to recycle
* cutting back on our water usage
* working on starting a compost bin
* using candles instead of turning on lights
* picking up trash
* planting more plants and flowers
* supporting our local farmers by joining a CSA

I know we have a lot more to do, and hopefully next year our list will be longer. My goal is to leave behind a small footprint and a large legacy!

Site Meter

So, thanks to Michelle and Lori I have finally discovered Site meter. I had been noticing more views to my blog and I wasn't sure where they were coming from. Well, now I know! This is what I found out:

*Someone found my blog by doing a Google search on Lego catalog.
*Another person found my blog by doing a Google search on things to be thankful for on a birthday.
*I receive a lot of referrals from Michelle, Lynnae, and Christopher.
*People have read my blog from as far away as the United Kingdom!
*My top referral comes from someone who quoted my blog onto his blog on my feelings on what happened with my pastor.
*And apparently, alot of people have found my blog by doing a Google search on my former pastor.

While flying to India I realized just how large our planet is. It took over 20 hours of traveling just to reach India. And I realized just how much larger God is. He is in control of our entire planet and knows everything that is going on! He's got the whole world in His hands.

After checking out site meter, I have also realized just how small our planet is. Someone from the United Kingdom is able to check out my blog and learn about me. It just shows that we are one big family.

So, welcome to my little world. For those of you looking for a Lego catalog, I hope you enjoyed my picture of our boys reading it. If you found me by Googling things to be thankful for on your birthday, I hope you found some inspiration. If you are friends of Michelle, Lynnae, or Christopher, you are blessed to have them in your life.

And if you found my blog while trying to find out about my pastor, I hope what I wrote gave a little background on the man he was and that you join our church in prayer that he comes back to God.

I hope you enjoy getting to know "a little bit of us".

What time of day am I?

Maybe I can make this a career.....
