Tag 8!

Thanks Nikki!

I hereby tag anyone interested in completing a blog without having to think up a snazzy topic.

8 TV Shows I Watch:
1. The Office
2. Jon and Kate Plus 8
3. The Duggars (17 and Counting!)
4. Half Ton Dad
5. Half Ton Mom
6. Everest (a seasonal program...it's not on right now)
7. Supernanny
8. WZZM13 - for the weather

(Sorry, I don't watch much TV - and mostly I'm just dedicated to "The Office".)

8 Things That Happened Yesterday
1. I took Helena to preschool.
2. We had family home evening.
3. I made grilled cheese sandwiches and applesauce muffins.
4. I wrote out some notes to my visiting teachees.
5. I sent out umpteen emails
6. I stayed home and played with Hunter while Dan took Helena to gymnastics.
7. Helena and I read chapter 2 of "Kirsten Learns a Lesson"
8. I walked on the treadmill and sang at the same time. (Yep, I was strolling, more than walking.)

8 Favorite Places to Eat
1. The Hearthstone
2. Chili's
3. Main Street Pub and Eatery
4. Brooklyn Bagel
5. Los Hermanos (too bad it's in Provo, UT)
6. Sunshine Seasons (too bad it's in Epcot)
7. G & L - when my digestive system's feeling optimistic
8. Olive Garden - I guess. Depends on the service. Salad's wicked good.

8 Things to Look Forward To
1. Christmas
2. Disney World
3. Thanksgiving
4. My children becoming adults...
5. My children being kids
6. Helena's preschool party tomorrow
7. Being old enough to not care two pennies how my hair looks
8. Singing in the shower tomorrow morning

8 Things on My Wish List
1. A DVC membership
2. Single-digit pants
3. Raspberry cheesecake - which doesn't help number 2
4. a mission when Dan and I are Oldies But Goodies
5. the opportunity to do some family history work
6. a lengthy visit to Europe
7. to share the joy!
8. warm feet

Not so exciting, but done!

Helena asked Dan and I, out of the clear blue sky, if we'd voted for "The Rock Obama." We responded that no, we hadn't, but how did she know who that was? She said "The Rock Obama is going to be our next president. We talked about it at school." Hey, a preschool that teaches current events? Very forward curriculum, no? It was hilarious the way she kept pronouncing the poor man's name!

Later that day we were asked to put in only "cool, snazzy music, not boring stuff."

Whew!

Helena sounds like such a funny girl! Too smart for her own good!

My first love is The Office, as well, but I love Jon and Kate Plus 8, too. Makes me thankful I only have three kids! ;)

We'll have to eat at Los Hermanos next time you guys come to Utah...love that place, too!

Great post. I thought you didn't like John and Kate plus 8. I love that Helena has her own musical tastes. Aidan too is getting his own musical tastes. He actually watched the Hannah Montana/Jonas Brothers concert the other night on Disney. Wild!

Beth!! Hola. I am glad that you discovered my blog. I want to tell people about it, but get bashful. Anyway, yes its Shelley. She is engaged to a guy named Shawn. He is a good guy. They have dated on and off for about two years. Did I mention that he is younger than me? He is. I guess Shelley is taking after A.C. I miss you too! It was such a tease to visit Chicago and not Muskegon. Another time, SOON- I hope. Can I add you a link on my blog? Hope all is well. I love hearing about Helana and Hunter. They are sweet. Hope all is well your way:) Love you.
