Jace's preschool class was learning the letter P, so for their fieldtrip they went to the Post Office and Smoky Mountain Pizza. At the Post Office, Jace got to buy a stamp and mail a letter to Grandma Ann that he had written in school.
Then, at the pizza place they got to make their own personal pizzas. Jace isn't a huge pizza fan, but he was excited about being able to put "lots of pineapple and pepperoni" on his pizza. Yummy!
They have finally made a cereal that is good for me and that tastes good! I love cereal, but usually end up eating kinds like Capn Crunch, Lucky Charms, Cocoa Pebbles, etc. because I have an extreme sweet tooth and can't seem to find a "healthy" cereal that I like. Until now....
This stuff really does taste like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and (BONUS!) it's 100% of the vitamins I need for the day. Thank you Total!
1) Pick the last picture in your last folder, or 2) pick a picture that seems like an average picture but has some fun story about who it was taken by, or maybe there is just a funny story behind it.
Tim and Jace's favorite thing to do together is take their 4-wheelers out to "The Dusty Place" as Jace calls it and ride for a while and then cook smokies on a fire. Jace has had his 4-wheeler for almost a year now (I know, that means he started riding when he was 3 1/2. Scary, huh.). He is actually getting pretty good, although it still scares me to death every time they go. Sometimes it is hard to tell if he is having fun because he always has such a serious look on his face while he is riding. I think it is because he is concentrating so hard because as you can see from the pictures, it looks like he is having a pretty good time.
Some of you know that New Year's Eve is my birthday. This year my sister and her husband were here so we got a babysitter (Thank you so much Ann!) and went out for the night with them and our friends Brandon and Susan. We had dinner at P.F. Changs, I had never been there before. It was great, the food was good and it was so nice to have adult conversation without children crawling under the table or throwing things. After dinner, we went across the street and listened to a band and rang in the new year. It was the first time in years that I have gone out without the kids for my birthday. Thanks Mandi and Susan for planning everything and making my birthday a lot of fun!
