My blog challenge

I posted a comment on my favorite scrapbooking message board, Scrapjazz, to tell everyone to update their blogs...so I am taking after my own advice.

The weather has been so nice here the last couple of days. On Sunday, we spent the day outside (after church of course). We went to my cousins missionary farewell. He is going to be heading off to Russia on March 28th for 2 years! He did such a wonderful job on his talk - I can't believe he's so grown up. After the farewell we went to my aunt's house for brunch and I ate soooo much. My grandma makes the best cookies and since she couldn't be at the farewell, she sent some! Jenna had so much fun playing with all of her second cousins while I enjoyed talking to some of my cousins I don't see very often.

Then...get this - I cooked fajitas for my family lunch! Yup, I cooked! And they turned out delicious! Everyone was very impressed. We had a birthday party for me and Suzanne (my OLDER sister). We didn't sing happy b-day or anything, just got together. I had already gotten most of my presents - Suzanne paid for me to get a massage, my mom and dad bought me a moist heat heating pad, Crystal bought me a hoodie, MIL got me a gift card to Joann's, and I bought an outfit and had Jason give it to me. Russell (my younger brother) forgot about presents - of course. It was a great day and I fell asleep out on the lawn in the sun.

This is also my 4th week of working for Basic Grey. If you haven't seen the paper and scrapbooking supplies they have - check out their website www.basicgrey.com They have the most beautiful paper lines and I love their magnetic stuff. I am so lucky to be working there - and everyone is so nice. The boss has already bought us lunch twice!
