"yellow matter custard....

dripping from a dead dog's eye!"
I was raised on The Beatles the way some kids were raised on Dr. Seuss. I was watching a movie with the kids tonight and noticed that Cameron was loving the soundtrack of Beatles cover songs. She was trying like crazy to memorize the words and sing along to the songs. I have never felt so excited!
I rushed to the computer and made her a playlist of all original Beatles songs so she could study up. I gave her the rundown of band members, band history and origin. She sucked it all in and asked me to get her a book about it. I could not be more proud if I were a surgeon and she was just accepted to med school!

Jesus credit card

Today Adam came running out of primary holding a little Article of Faith card with a picture of Jesus. "Mom, look! I got a Jesus credit card!!!"

it's like this and like that and like this and uh....

Last night we were driving back to Utah County after dinner at my mom's house. I thought I'd really impress my kids by showing off my rapping skills (I still got it). After blasting a little Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg and not missing a single word (clean version, not explicit lyrics) I noticed Cameron yelling something at me. I was so sure she was going to compliment my skills when she stopped me in my tracks, "Mom, this is not appropriate for kids."
Ouch.

still feelin' it

I would officially like to be allowed into the exclusive club of the crafty. Although I'm sure this is a momentary lapse in my otherwise uncreative life, I'm quite proud of the last two days work.

feelin' crafty

My obsessive behavior continues.... I had to go to the fabric store today for some ribbon. Then I saw cute fabric and got an idea. My back aches and my hands are cramped but now I have a cute gift for Auntie Em's baby! Let's just hope Em doesn't read my blog before I give it to her.
