Stick On Shoes

It's no surprise that Savanna keeps us on our toes around here. She is such a little character. Yesterday she discovered panitiliners while rummaging through the bathroom cabinets. She then waltzed into the family room wearing her new stick on shoes and looking like this. :)

Cornbelly's 2011

I guess it's a family tradition now since this is our 3rd year going. :) We went to Cornbelly's on Saturday and the kids had a blast. It was surprisingly warm though and really busy probably because of the weather. We were there for 2 hours and didn't even make it through the whole place. Next year we'll try and go on a less busy day. :)

Temple Pictures

Yesterday before church we took the kids to the temple. It was so nice being there with my kids and husband and it made me realize how lucky we are that we can just drive 5 minutes from our house and be at the temple and drive another hour and be at any of 6 others we choose to go to. I love the temple and am so grateful for the blessings we receive from going there. I'm grateful that Scott and I were married in the temple and that our kids are sealed to us forever. I love my forever family!

I Heart Pinterest

Wow, pinterest rocks. Has everyone been having as much fun on pinterest over the last couple of months as I have? It was awesome this month while I was planning a bridal shower for my sister. I got most of my ideas and inspiration on there. Here are a few of my favorite pinterest finds that I've actually tried. :)

I learned how to make these super cute pom balls from this website http://www.thebusybudgetingmama.com/2010/08/diy-tissue-pom-poms.html and they were super easy to make and really cute at my sisters bridal shower.

OH MY GOODNESS... these Ham and Cheese Sliders are soooo good! We served these at the bridal shower and they are wonderul. :) You have to try them. The saue that goes over the top makes them awesome. http://www.the-girl-who-ate-everything.com/2010/04/ham-and-cheese-sliders.html

I made this Broccoli Soup on Monday night. Scott worked late so the kids and I ate first. We ate all of it. I actually had to make another batch of soup so that Scott would have some when he got home. It's so good! http://www.mangiodasola.com/2009/11/broccoli-cheddar-soup.html

I made this cake last sunday because I was craving cinnamon rolls but didn't want to put in all the work. It turned out super good and was a big hit with everyone. AND I found a good food blog along with it. BONUS! :) http://www.life-as-a-lofthouse.blogspot.com/2011/07/cinnamon-roll-cake.html

A couple weeks ago I was feeling ambitious and decided to attempt baking something I've never baked before. Rolls. It was my first time baking rolls and they turned out awesome! They are not texas roadhouse like the recipe says but still really good. :) http://life-as-a-lofthouse.blogspot.com/2011/08/texas-roadhouse-rolls-and-cinnamon.html

I found this super cute idea for a Bat Tree for Halloween decorating. Here is my version of what I found. I gathered some dead sticks across the street from my house and spray painted them black. I then put them in a vase and put ribbon around it. I found some plastic bats at target and hung them from the sticks with fishing line. I love how it turned out!

I go through clorox wipes like they're going out of style. On Pinterest I found this idea to convert my emply clorox wipes bottle into a grocery bag holder. I just tore the label off, washed it in the dishwasher and put scrap book paper on it. Ta-da!

I found this cute idea on Pinterest to do leaf pictures with the kids. They had so much fun!

One of my favorites... I saw this on Pinterest and had to make some of my own. They turned out so cute and the kids actually enjoy doing chores so the can move their "to-do's" to "done". Awesome!
