My son just invented an atlatl…
He was playing with my wooden spoons - I have one “normal” spoon, and one just like it, but with a round hole bored through the flat bowl (Stirring part).

…but this is an exception I’m making.
I hate asking for things, but I hope nobody minds this.
In a week we are going to Disneyland. This is the first time for my kids, and they are really looking forward to it. A good friend of mine was going to get us in for free, but she is currently ill in another state, and it’s looking like she might not be back in Anaheim until after we come and go.

So, we had a pretty nice holiday here, even with the money being tight!
The Saturday before Christmas we drug my hermit brother in law on a double date with a friend of mine - we went to the Sakura japanese style grill/sushi bar (and my BIL took the bill for that, thank heavens! As it passed from my husband, in front of me, to my BIL, I snuck a peek… HOLY CRAP, it was pricey because the men got meaty combos. I’m glad my brother in law got a raise recently!). Then we took her mini-golfing and bowling. Can you belive that I found the one person in Utah Valley that has never done either? Anyhow, the boys beat the girls at both games, but we all had lots of fun anyhow. And at the bowling alley, a girl on a date with some guy was totally SMASHING him, with strikes and spares all over the place. Good for her! (Though my husband told me that the hottest girls are terrible at bowling…)

Mostly not sunburned, hooray!
We went up to a reservoir near Ogden and fried for the last 3 days - the kids had a marvelous time at the family reunion. I got to spend lots of time with some of the cousins and aunts and uncles, and I think I am FINALLY getting to know them (and I’ve been married for 5 yearS!)
