Miscellaneous...

A month ago today I started a blog called Simply Real. You can go check it out: http://simplyrealfood.blogspot.com
It's about food and health and cooking...
I'm doing my first giveaway on there, so enter!
Anyway, it's been pretty fun, and in the first month I've had 1500+ visitors to the site.

I recently won a contest in the Reader magazine. Grand prize was a tv. I didn't win that. First prize was $100 cash. I didn't win that either. 2nd prize was a $50 gift card- oh yeah! I won! I don't know where it's for, but- I won! The contest was to try to figure out the names of the people who advertised with the magazine. It took a little work, but was fun like figuring out a riddle.

We found last night that my brother (Chase) got into BYU-Idaho! We're so excited. He's the fifth in my family to go there. In fact, all of us who have gone to college went there, and all of us who are married met our spouses there. I am sure he'll love it.

Karissa has the week off school. I love not having to get up and be on a schedule. I'm looking forward to summer! It's fun having her around too. Kyle loves having her to play with ALL DAY.

  3. How am I just hearing about your simply real blog? I love it. You are a good teacher and make me want to try all of the things you are doing. One of my biggest obstacles is grandparents. They seem to want to sugar Bayer up at every opportunity!
