One of My Favourite Things

Loving banter, games, food, friends, books, movies, and piano music.  My best friend's house is one of my favourite places. There is always something going on, someone to talk to, tease, or play with. 

I sit here and just take it all in. Him playing the piano like a master, his family telling stories and talking downstairs. There is just something about this place that lets me know I'm home. Man, I love these people!

What's one of your favorite places and why?

Momma For a Week.

Last month my dear sister asked me to watch her kiddlets as she went to education week. I haven't spent a lot of time with these kids lately, as I just recently returned from serving a full time mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. So of course I jumped at the opportunity!

It's been such a blast, here are just a few of our adventures:

Quiet time lasted about 20 minutes after the baby woke up much too early and the kids decided to have a party in my bed. 








The 2 big kids and decided that we were a small army and challenged a friend to a duel. "We may be small, but we do not fear death!!"











 Fun times at the park! It's okay for baby's to eat sticks, right?

AND I nearly lost a game of chess to a five year old. 


It's never a dull moment with 3 crazy kiddies. What have a learned from this experience? I definitely want to be a mother, But I can definitely wait a little while.
