Reading, Tackles, Tantrums, Weddings...

I try to update my blog at least once a week and I know I'm a day late. Sorry. Since my last post,

a) Doug has filed our taxes,

b) we managed to spend less than we earned (during February) for the first time in a very long time,

c) Lucy and Isaac got healthy again (we're at the only coughing at night stage--no boogers! and I'm sorry that I use the word "boogers" so often in my posts. You don't deserve to read that word. No one does.). Thank goodness for their ability to self-entertain at home. (The kids, not the boogers.) I took lots of pictures of them "reading" because it just makes me happy... and

d) we went to Utah,

e) took part in the pre-wedding dinner,

f) the actual wedding at the Draper temple, which was just awesome,

g) the glorious reception,

h) hanging out with Doug's dad

i) and the Stevenson women, and

j) having fun at the Buechner home. Then we

k) came back,

l) I did several loads of laundry,

m) booked my flight to Texas at the end of May,

n) got a rejection letter for the poems I entered in a BYU Studies contest:( and

o) have been trying to prepare for the class I'll begin teaching on April 20th. I also

p) finished "Eat Pray Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert,

q) began reading "The Time Traveler's Wife,"

r) purchased a new nozzle for our downstairs bathroom and

s) a new spout for our upstairs shower and

t) coordinated play group today and

u) planned the Relief Society birthday dinner that's coming up next Thursday and

v) did a RS board meeting last night wherein I begged for volunteers and

w) I made dinner for the last three days and

x) I've been looking at cruises and getaways with Doug and

"y") not post a blog that pays tribute to the a-may-

"z")ing alphabet?
