The house is pretty quiet.
The girls are asleep, Chris has left to run a few errands and all I can hear is the soft sound of my son watching “Billy the Exterminator” on t.v.
Have you ever seen that show? Eww eww eww! 🙂

Anyways, I’ve been sitting here staring at my computer screen, writing, deleting, rewriting, then deleting some more.
Truth be told I’m a little scared.
I find myself not knowing exactly what to say….

When I was writing my “About” page, I included this:

Last week it rained. And rained. And then rained some more (and it’s STILL raining, by the way. Ugh. Anyways…)
The girls and I were getting pretty bored, so we grabbed a cookbook and decided to try out a new recipe.
(loved doing that! so fun!)
We chose Company’s Coming- Cookies and settled on “Chocolate Softies.”

This weekend Chris and I escaped to Banff to celebrate his birthday.
We left the kiddos with our families and happily took off to the mountains!

We may {or may not} have gone a little crazy at the thought of spending a weekend away with no kids.
