how to make a slice of heaven

o.k. - so here is how you make the drink that tastes like the peanut butter drink from our local juice store.

get your blender
put in however much of the following ingredients that you want - i just guessed until it looked good.

2 spoonfuls of peanut butter
vanilla ice cream
milk
like 1/3 cup or more of dry chocolate milk powder drink stuff
bananas
ice

that's it.
drink up and go to heaven

mutual night -

last night we went to our mutual activity for our ward.
we went on a tour of printing services of the church.
IT WAS AWESOME!!
i can't even tell you how cool it was to see all of the printed materials in BULK and how they process everything. it really is a miracle and it's amazing.
i love that they need to make so many copies of all the church materials. that must mean the work is spreading around the world. yay!!!
if you ever have the chance to go on a tour there - go!!! and don't wear flip flops - they won't let you in if you don't have close-toed shoes.

p.s. - here is a BIG birthday shout-out for my older, wiser, amazing, handsome, funny, caring, loveable, huggable, undeniably irresistable, cool-kid-of-the-neighborhood, brother Zane. Happy 32nd, bro!

another post

well, nothing exciting has been going on in our lives - so that's why i haven't posted anything.

over the weekend we helped isaac's sister move into a new place - and that was fun. i'm sure she's excited to have her own place again. and it's in a great location and i'm sure her boys will love the backyard.

i did figure out the recipe for the peanut butter drink at jamba juice - so if you love that drink as much as i do and want to know how to make it - i'll share my findings.

this thursday, march 19, is zane's birthday. he's the big 3-2 this year.

chase & dianne are coming for a visit this weekend and I'M SO EXCITED to see them!!!

that's about it.

thanks for visiting.

the post-it note man, the love-singers, and a lame cop

well, i guess i'll tell you all how AWESOME the Air Supply concert in Wendover was. IT WAS AWESOME! we made a long drive for a short show and turned around to drive home. it's true - we left at about 6:30 and were home by 11:30. but it was a great way to spend a friday night. I had never been to Wendover before and it had been a long time since Isaac had been there. we got there a little late for the 8:00 concert and they were already on stage! no opening act for these guys. now, i am being 100% completely serious when i say this - Air Supply was AWESOME! for a couple of old guys - they really know how to belt out the love ballads. i have a new warm spot in my heart for their music.











yep - the show was sold out!! and it was a doozy!



i saw this licence plate in the parking lot after the show - kind of made me laugh.
most of the cars in the parking lot had Utah plates. go figure.

Then this very morning i went out to my car and found this:

last night Isaac had told me that i better get up a little early this morning and i didn't know why. well, it was to take off about a gazillion post it notes from the inside of my car. last night he had gone and done this while i was inside making banana bread. what a nice surprise this morning!!!








all of them said "i love you". i wonder how long it took him to write all of these out.


what a sweet thing for him to do - i REALLY appreciate his creativity and patience to do this.

so the day started off great - until a stupid cop, who is just doing his job, pulled me over for speeding. but the thing is - i couldn't have been speeding because of where i was driving. but whatever - i'll take it. grrr.....thanks for ruining my post-it note moment. lame Copper.
