Someone thinks....
My currently youngest is always with me. He is attached to my hip 24/7. So it doesn't surprise me when he frequently plays with kitchen items but this time he wanted us to cook him for dinner.

He loves to dance
Every time we go to a wedding my husband wants to dance. He is a dancing machine. We went to the most beautiful wedding back in September at the Windows in Minneapolis,MN for my cousins wedding. It was so amazing. They only thing that would have made the day better would have been having my cousin Johnny with us. Miss you!

Fun in Iowa
Iowa....who has fun in Iowa. Guess what WE DO!!
I have a rental car because a drunk driver hit my car. I drive a gas guzzling trailblazer so it's not often we go down to my Dads house because he lives 1.5 hour away. I know it's pathetic but I hate spending $50 plus dollars just to drive there. ;) Sooooo, we went down there the other weekend. Kids played with the goats, in the barn, grilled burgers, and visited. It was very nice!
