Our family is all here again!

So, my bro, Matthew came back from his mission from Minnesota. He looks different: He's taller, arms bigger but the biggest difference I see in him is his auora. Not that it was in any way negative before but if ya'll could look at that young man's eyes! He carries the spirit with him. I'm sure proud of that boy.

Clarification

So Jason informed me that we do not live in Jane Austen times for me to refer to him at "Mr. Harris." He said, "If you want to give me a title use my real one, Dr. Harris." I replied, "well you're not MY doctor . . .you're my MAN, Mr. Man." So since that's what I really call him at home, Mr. Man is how I'll refer to him from now on.
FYI: the flowers he gave to the girls were Star Lillies. They were in my wedding bouquet.

A fun day

Mr. Harris took me to Medieval Times for our Valentines Date. It was MY defintion of romantic. He gave my favorite kind of flower to the girls because I detest getting them. Just becuase I have a favorite flower doesn't mean I like receiving it. He treated me to the show with our neighbors Marianna and Hugo. I loved eating the meat with my hands and drinking my soup. It was authentic and I liked! He spoiled me and gave me a jewelry set I had been eyeing that our other neighbor (gemologist) makes (plus it matched my purple church clothes). He also gave me the second level (out of 3) to Rosetta Stone Spanish. I WILL be fluent. I just gave him the clothes he needed anyway. Can I help it if I have the best husband? I don't want to make anyone feel bad.

I love my life

My house has been full of children. Note to self: when you have children, you will multiply the amount of your children you have in your house by their friends coming over. I came downstairs to loudness and a naked toddler (Ben). As I stood in the middle of the family room laying out some ground rules, Ben straddled my leg, backed up with a huge grin, swinging his puggy arms back and forth and said,"pee on mom". I looked down and sure enough saw a warm, wet pant leg. Needless to say this caused a moment of silence amongst the kids then a burst of loud laughter. I had to leave because it was louder than when I came down in the first place by now.

February 3, 2009

What a perfect day! It all started with the beautiful weather outside. Sun is out shining with snow painted perfectly on each branch. Enjoyed an hour at the gym. . .(what would our ancestors think?) Drove straight to the library to get books . . .get this . . .FOR FREE! Any kind of book imaginable. Do we live in an awesome era or what? What a wonderful time and country to be living in. Oh that my ancestors and posterity could have is so bountifully as I do. Snuggling with cocoa under a blanket with my 2 boys was heaven on earth right before we left just to "hang" at chick fillet with my friend and her 2 kids. I studied my Spanish (Program on Line!! It forces you to learn with little or no brain work) and practiced my piano. Aren't we blessed to have a piano. . . such a luxury to have such a fine instrument. How would I feel to be "mobbed out of my house" over and over like our heritage? I'm sure they left their whole inheritance more than once.
