I am the goodest...

I always appreciate my husband's sense of humor.

The other day we were driving in the car. Marcus announced to the family, "I am the goodest in my class at math. I can do my times tables."

Matt replied, "Are you the goodest in your class in English?"

Family Reunion or Mortgage Company Picnic?

Saturday we went to my company party at a park. I just started with a new mortgage company a few months ago, so I was excited to go to their BBQ to meet some of the people that I've only spoken to on the phone. (Our main office is in Provo.) We got the directions to the park from Google, piled the kids in the mini-van, and drove to Pleasant Grove. I made a salad to contribute to the BBQ. Keep in mind that I haven't met these people yet, so I am looking for a gathering of complete strangers... We got to the park and saw a bunch of people at a pavilion. We parked the van and all piled out. We walked up to the food table and I uncovered my salad, took out my tongs, and the kids started picking up plates and getting drinks out of the cooler. After getting my salad settled, I turned around and noticed the group of people going through scrapbooks. That didn't seem very mortgage-like to me, so I decided to ask. I went up to a lady and said, "Excuse me, but could you...

Sacrament Meeting Antics

Image
I think even when they are 33 and 35, my two youngest boys will still be called, "the little boys." Tyler is the big boy, and he and Aubree are only 20 months apart. Because of the four year gap between "the oldest two" and "the little boys," our family has been subdivided a little. It works out well for "the oldest two," when we decide to take them on a trip to Washington D.C. or something. (The little boys will get their turn in five years or so.) So this last week at church, I felt like my little boys were a bit out of control. They are best buds, and enjoy each other immensely, but sometimes they can be rambunctious and irreverent. (I always have wondered if one of them had been a girl, how that would've calmed things down.) I would like to share a list of the things that have happened in Sacrament Meeting over the past month or so. These boys are now 8 and 6: 1. Upon finding a Spanish hymn book, my little boys proceed to point out ...

Leatherby's Coupons

We love ice cream. We also love eating ice cream at Leatherby's. We also love using coupons to eat ice cream at Leatherby's. My mother-in-law, knowing I will try to use a coupon ANYWHERE, handed me several Leatherby's coupons one day and said, "I figured you could probably use these." I was thrilled, of course. The next time Matt and I took the kids to Leatherby's, I pulled out the coupons and showed Matt our good fortune. He said they looked just like the coupons that he would get when he worked at Leatherby's 20 years ago. In fact, when he flipped over one of the coupons, it said, "Matt, call Paul." Hmmm... a phone message from his mom about his best friend in high school. It finally dawned on Matt that these WERE the same coupons from 20 years ago. "Well, they don't have an expiration date," I pointed out, as I strolled up to the cashier to pay. When I handed over the coupons, the cashier had a puzzled look on his face....
