We're home! We had a great time in Idaho and it was nice to see so many of our family members. A few highlights (sorry, I was a failure with the camera, we have about 5 pictures of the while trip):

* Emery got to ride a horse, the tractor (for those of you who know him, that's a HUGE deal), and a Go-Go (four wheeler)
* Chani got loved and held by everyone and met all of her aunts, uncles and cousins for the first time (except Charlynn and Ivan who came to her blessing in October)
* Clint and I got to attend a session in the Rexburg Temple (thanks again for tending and dinner, Shelly)
* Clint's graduation party complete with awesome smoked ribs (thanks Jason)
* Clint completed over 20 geocaches while we were home and now he's over 50
* Shopping and more shopping (Bless Cathrynn for not killing me!)

Thanks again for the trip, Mom and Dad, we had a blast!

Headed to Idaho!

We're headed to Idaho for a week. We leave first thing tomorrow morning and will be back on June 1. So, have a great week and I will post soon!

Reading's Recipe Exchange is Live!

We're ready to rock and roll. Check it out here If you have questions or suggestions, please tell me. Thanks so much!

Recipe Blog update

The recipe blog will be up Monday, but I need two things:

1. What should we call it, it needs a cool name.

2. Be planning. Monday we will start with a main dish, let's start with chicken, so pick a favorite chicken main dish to post on Monday.

After we name the blog, I will post the link Sunday night or Monday morning!

New Blog Idea

OK, I'm in a rut, and decided that this is the place to get myself out. Clint and I devised a pretty easy recipe sharing idea. I'm always in the market for new recipes, and I have a way to help everyone. Each week, I'd like everyone to share one recipe. I'm still trying to develop the idea, but this is what I'm thinking, maybe Monday would be main dish day, Thursday would be salad/soup day, and Saturday might be dessert day. If everyone shares a recipe, then it will build a collection quickly. I think that I would start a new blog that linked off of this one (one that would be findable from Google), and open for anyone to post a recipe. So, if I start this, would you be interested? Do you have other suggestions?

You stay on your side......

Don't mind the unmade bed. Emery has decided our bedroom is the new place to hang out, so over the weekend he was playing on our bed, and Clint went back at one point and asked if I didn't want to share a bed with him anymore. This is what he found.



The fence that my dad built to go with the barn was separating the two sides of the bed. Emery must be sure that one baby sister is enough!

An AI post? From me?

Ok, girls, here's the deal. A board I'm on posted this link because David Cook was in her town today. So, go here to check it out!
