Luxuries of Life

For the last year at our house we have not owned a toaster. Mainly because I just always forget to buy one at the store. When the kids ask for Eggos or something toasty they are out of luck. I don't really like to admit it but I do toast things in the broiler often. It had gotten to the point where Ben and the kids were starting to give me a hard time for not having a toaster.

Well our big news today is... I bought a toaster. When I told Max what I bought he was so excited he just about jumped out of his seat! I guess if all it took to make the family happy was a little toast, I should have done it a long time ago. As soon as we got home Max was ready to bust out the new purchase and partake of some toast.

Ryley is also excited she told me that now she can make breakfast.

Twilight

Well I just finished the third book in the twilight series. I have been reading it off and on for about 3 weeks. Today I busted through the rest and feel like I can go on with my life. It is hard for me to read books since I feel like I start to neglect the house and kids. Today was a good day to do that though. I was already not feeling well and thought I would just waste the day.

I just had to post about my accomplishment. I am sure when the next book comes out I will read that also. I hope it doesn't upset me as mush as Eclipse has.

My kids find this hilarious

Is Spring really here?

With the weather lately I have been wondering if Spring will ever show up for the party. I have a feeling that this is the week. Maybe it is because we are getting grass in the backyard or it is just wishful thinking. I know the kids are anxious to play in the yard and enjoy some sunshine. Today we were visiting a friend and Ryley asked if she could pull her weeds! She then proceeded to pull weeds for about 20 minutes. She actually picked quite a few. I guess she is excited to get out in the yard and get dirty. Hopefully this enthusiasm carries over to when I need her help. So here is to Spring hopefully we see it soon and it sticks around for awhile! when it is finally warm come on over to play in the sunshine.
