Long TIme- no NOTHIN'

So I think I am the worst blogger in the WORLD....Life gets so busy and time flies.
November is here, and with it brought Dano's facial  hair...Oh yay! I mean we love it and why not suport a great cause like prostate cancer.  I even bought a stache to support the cause.
I was just going to take a pic. and post it of our mustaches and tell you all how I never leave home without it.  But alas I have lost it.  Someone at some store probably thought it was a dead rat and swept it up....Oh I am soooooo sad:(  Oh well one day when I get back to Urban Outfitter some day I will buy a new one. Until then I will look at Danos and try to explain to my friends that even though he looks creepy he is still the same guy and their families are still safe around him....
So support MOvember...

A Little Blip On The Map.

I have not been watching the amazing race this season...But this week my Mom told me I had to turn it on so we did... They were in Singapore. Last Oct. Dano and I went to Singapore on our first real vacation in 10yrs.  It was amazing! The show brought back some very good memories.  We have some awesome friends that are living over there and they were so generous to let us crash at their place and they showed us all the really cool places to go.

When we were watching  the show it was so neat to realize we had been to all of those places or seen then as we drove past. We went to the opera house and the pavilion in the park on our Sunday walk after church how cool is that.... It made me miss being there so very much. It is so beautiful and clean and safe. I wish that I could go back. But we will cherish the time we had there.

Thanks Ben Cheryl and Little Samara for the great time.

Happy Easter

OK ...Ok I am going to update my blog soon I promise. I hope you are havinga GrEaT EASTER!

GURNEYS HOUSE OF FOOD

Have you ever had your kids freak out about having to eat leftovers? Well it happens at our house every once in a while so we thought we would change things up a bit.
Yesterday after school I gave Slade a list of things we had to eat and I asked him to make a few menus. He had a lot of fun and he did a great job. The girls had no idea what was going to happen later but I knew they were going to love it.
Just before dinner Slade brought me the menus and we handed them out to the family.  He named our restaurant  GURNEYS HOUSE OF FOOD.  They had so much fun choosing what they would have for their entree, drinks and desert. Dano then explained to them that the restaurant they would be dining at was a fancy one and they needed to go and get dressed up.  You don't need to tell my kids twice when it comes to dressing up they were all over it.
When the kids returned in their fancy clothing and make-up for the girls Dano took pictures so they would feel so glamorous. Dano called them mademoiselle and garcon all night and they giggled every time.
Libby however missed out on our fun evening, she fell asleep as soon as the menus were brought out.
They ate without complaining and that doesn't happen very often.
It was a success.
I HEART MY FAMILY!
