Witches and Warlocks in Training!!

Just one of those silly days when the kids are bored to tears and had to find something to do before they dissengrated from not being entertained 24/7...ooh the humanity, right!!

A little late for the 4th...but still yummy!!


Well this was my cute recipe that was going to be for a 4th of July BBQ, but I don't know what happened that they just didn't "materialize" and so I finally made them probably a month ago actually, so much closer to the 4th than now...I'm just getting around to posting the picture now!! Such a slacker I know!! Anyway, do they look like little chunks of corn on the cob with a nice buttery slab on top?? I hope so...they were fun to make when I finally figured out how thick or thin the icing needed to be to keep the uhhh..."kernels" on there!!

It Wasn't My Fault!!

Okay Okay...so I get it all set up to start uploading the booty-ton of stuff I have and some unknown force pulls me away from the computer and into doing something else, i.e. reading a book.....So like I said it wasn't my fault, it was that one Stephenie Meyer...so blame her!! My fellow Twilight readers will understand the gravitational pull of her book that it just won't let you LEAVE!! But somehow her pull is much stronger at night when the kids are in bed and I can curl up on the couch with a nice fuzzy blanket and a big bowl of popcorn ALL BY MYSELF!! Does any other mother know why that time would have more effect on me than during the day in between laundry,spit-up,poopy diapers, and flying food!! I could sit down then just as easily and read a chapter of a book, right!!?? Uhhh...sure!! ;)

Well Here Goes Nothing!!

Don't you always hear that phrase when you know somebody's about to fall off a roof while trying to fly with a towel around their back..."Here Goes Nothing Daddy, are you sure this red towel will make me fly like Superman?" or maybe even more likely bomb the ever living snikes out of a test that they know they didn't study for..."Well here goes nothing...pssst hey Bubba whatcha put for number 2?" Anyway well in this case it's...here goes ALOT of updates in one sitting...and subsequently probably your eyes as well if you're interested enough to read them all from staring at the computer screen so long...but as my previous towel-bearing predecessors, and all night video gamers stated: "Here Goes Nothing..."

Tent City in S. Korea

Doesn't everybody remember their parents helping them build a "fort" or "tent" in between the dining room chairs...despite their usual begging and pleadings to play with them or help them do something that knowingly will trash the living room...well I actually on this day which is the rarest of occasions really actually got into helping them do it (probably because Kyle was napping and so I didn't have to handle one more!!) and so I set up a lamp in there so they could pretend it was like a real campout and they had their "flashlights" and then I brought them some of their play kitchen utensils so they could "cook" me breakfast over the campfire!! Anyway, I think they really enjoyed it,especially because I didn't put them aside for once and tell them.."No I'm busy I can't play with this or help with this..."so there is something to be said about parental play even if it does knowingly trash all your hard work of cleaning just so you can go on a living room campout with your kids!! ;)

Welcome to....Beastly!!

Well, here's an official welcome and an even cheerier goodbye hopefully to August and its beastly hot days. I know that we live on base and certainly cannot complain about the distance to anything that we ever relatively need on a regular basis-but it's sad when it's so hot outside that you don't even want to walk the 1/4 mile to the BX or even worse to the pool!! ;) Anyway, we've had our share of Korean Augusts and are definitely ready to be done with them!! Do the states get this hot and humid, it's been so long since we've seen it or been there that we don't even remember the good ol' US of A. I know my mom says that the temperature is always in the upper 100's in St. George but hopefully at that temp. the humidity isn't that bad!! We sure hope not!! Anyway, I have some wonderful pictures and videos to post, but depending on how busy this next week is trying to get Chris ready for his departure for a few days, I might post all at one shot while he's gone....I mean what else is there to do at night when your husband is gone!! ;) So until then I'll keep checking yours and hoping that some of my fellow bloggers have updated theirs better than I have mine!! What a hypocrite, huh!! :)
