Dinner and a Movie

lds.org

Me and the girls (or is it My girls and I) are on our own tonight.  My Man took the boys on the Father's and Son's outing, a Mormon cultural tradition, that is held each May to commemorate the restoration of the priesthood to the earth.  To learn more about that, go here. 

I let the girls plan our evening.  They wanted to go to the bookstore, have pizza for dinner and watch Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland.  Pretty easy to please.

I think my guys are having hot dogs and s'mores for dinner, and most likely are singing koom-by-yah around the campfire or something exciting like that.  Just in case you wanted to know.

We took a little trip to Idaho over Easter weekend.  It was good to see our families for a few days.  No super storms, just a little snow that the kids had a blast playing in and freezing their fingers for.  It was very fun to see the big fluffy flakes fall from the sky, covering the grass like a feather blanket.  After the storm as the snow was melting away, I watched out the front window of my parents home as the fog rolled down off the mountain and into their little valley.  A feeling of nostalgia filled my soul.  It was a good trip.  Short and sweet.

(I'm sure the picture would look tons better if only I owned a top notch digital SLR camera and the Tamron camera lens.  Know what I'm sayin'?  Of course you do.)

And for your information this creepy little fellow held a welcoming party for us when we got home...

It's a scorpion...and needless to say, I've not been sleeping well since.  Wo is me.  Right?  Eww, I just got the willies.  I'm not too fond of these eight legged critters or is it six legs.  Got the willies again... 

HAVE A GOOD NIGHT! 

...and remember to check your bed sheets before you crawl into bed.  Ha!
