Background Glitteratti

Check me out…I have a background! It will probably change frequently because that was a lot of fun. I realized as I was selecting my background I don’t have nearly enough pink and/or cute in my world. So, please forgive me if you happen upon the occasional butterfly, flower, glitter spray, bow or even lace.

I am trying a new parenting technique: Joshua follows me around the house all day and says, “Mommy, a Emo.” Translation: “Mom, put on the Elmo movie.” Once is cute, twice is nice but 12 times in 1 minute is making me a little crazy. So, now when he says it, I say “Joshie, a Robert Downey Jr.” Or “Joshie, a Mark Ruffalo.” I mean why does he get to hang out with his favorite actor all day? Where is the justice in that?

Great Weekend

This past weekend was filled with fun for all.

It started with a run on Antelope Island with my good friend Lisa Brown and my

brother-in-law Tom. I just wish someone would have

let me know the first 5 miles were uphill.

After the run we went to Grandma K and Papa Bill's house for the annual

Easter Egg hunt. The kids had a blast and always get spoiled.

The fun was rounded off by a live concert with the 'Jonah Brothers'.

I had a backstage pass so I got to hang out with the cute guy in the sweater vest.

I love sweater vests.

We at the Lewis Household enjoy all the finer things in life.

Catching Mice....

Pie Fights....

Chocolatey Chocolate Bundt Cake....

and of course,

Bacon & Cheese flavored crickets...

Here it is...

Wow, what a day. By 10:00 a.m. I had already cleaned up a bottle of hair gel all over the bathroom floor, a bottle of syrup and a bag of flour on the kitchen floor and just after I got the culprit of the aforementioned messes out of the shower, his brother poured the aforementioned bottle of syrup over his freshly shampooed head. I wish this was the part where I say, "Oh, it was so cute I just had to take a picture." Nope. I yelled. I sent his friend home who looked at me like I might have just grown horns.

It got better though. I beat Eli at Go Fish and also cleared the 4th board on Mario Bros. so all is well that ends well.

Oh yeah, and I started a blog.
