I don't mean to be crude or rude, or vulgar, but I have to admit that every time I walked out my door to my garden I was met with the sight of this lovely Blue Spruce giving me the bird. Can you see it? Seriously, every day I got a little tickle inside when I saw this tree. I do believe the Lord has a HUGE sense of humor:) Don't you think?The tree has now straightened out its finger into a more appropriate pose, and is growing happily. It ... ...continue reading
Pizza!
Who doesn't love pizza? OK so technically Seth doesn't love it. He used to love it, but he was violently sick one night, and it just isn't ever something you love again. You know how it goes. Me and Garlic Cheddar bread will never really be friends. Oh well! Life will go on. Sorry about the image here. I had great intentions of fabulous pizza so just forget everything I just said about me and Seth. We all love pizza. This summer we have ... ...continue reading
Red White and Blue Razzleberry Shortcake
I have had an abundance of kindness shown to me the last few weeks. Actually it started way before Jane was even born, and it has made me exceedingly grateful for wonderful friends and family. I am truly blessed to know sooo many stinking kind people. I don't think I know any mean people. Maybe just one mean lady at the temple last year that made me cry, but James says she was probably just having an off day. I'm sure she's nice at heart. ... ...continue reading
Just Jane
She's here! She's finally here, and I can officially say, ALL Clawson's are in love. Even Emma:) Jane Juliet Clawson was born June 13, 2011 at 5:07 pm. She weighed in at a hefty 7 lbs. 11 oz. and 20 inches long. She is beautiful, and she sleeps well. She was a quick delivery. Actually wham bam boom quick. We decided on a home birth for Jane, and actually I don't think we would have made it to a hospital anyway. All went perfectly. I'll ... ...continue reading
Camping Eclairs
Impromptu campfire. Hotdog roasting, and Eclair making. Notice James and Jessica's dough wrapped sticks. Bottom center is the eclairs being roasted. Seth and Eric loved their finished projects. I love Summer!!Have you had them? They will become your new camping or backyard tradition! Now you only need a few items to make them. The most important item is a 1 inch dowel. I've lost a few broom handles to the cause, but any 1 inch dowel ... ...continue reading
Fruit Pizza
I think Fruit Pizza is the most wonderful invention. We had a baby blessing last Sunday. My brother Josh and his wife Katie blessed their new son Isaac. He's beautiful, and you should have seen Katie. She was beautiful. Drop dead gorgeous actually. Her hair, her blue blouse! I know why Josh loves her! But we actually missed the blessing. By about 10 minutes. That's how it goes when Jimmy gets caught after a church meeting. But we had a ... ...continue reading
June Loveliness
Two little boys on their way tothe last day of school. Skipping as they go!School is finally out, and I believe Spring has arrived finally. Not Summer, but definitely Spring. I've decided this is the time of year that I stick long dreary winters out for. It is absolutely beautiful right now. The lilacs are actually blooming this year. They have a tendency to freeze before they bloom in Cache Valley, but not this year. They are heavy laden ... ...continue reading
Pad Thai
So here it is. The last day of May and I have no inclination in the world to do my visiting teaching. None! Zip! Nada! Don't I have a good excuse? Dang it................I look like Humpty Dumpty, and I am not going to be relieved of that anytime soon. Actually, I'm putting my positive affirmations to work here today. I will have a baby soon. But I'm still not going visiting teaching. I'll tell my ladies I love them on May 32, 2011. ... ...continue reading
Lovely Ladies
Jimmy building the coop. Seth helped. Kind of.Secretly I love this song. We are huge Les Miserables fans at our house, but I'm afraid my Jimmy usually skips this song when it comes up on the play list. We don't need children asking what lovely ladies are quite yet do we? But deep down inside I LOVE to sing this song. It's a little scandalous, and sassy, and I just like being that way sometimes. But I'm posting about some other lovely ... ...continue reading
Yeasted Waffles
I have a favorite waffle recipe. I do, but I think we have a new favorite at our house when it comes to these little Saturday morning breakfast delicacies. A few months ago I taught my very last Macey's class. It was a little sad. I've been teaching these classes for the last 9 years if you can imagine. It's always been a lot of fun, and I have loved getting to know all the ladies and the few gents that came to my class. We never made ... ...continue reading
