Mar 13 - 19


Monday, March 13 - On the way home from bowling, I stopped by Sam's Club to grab a few grocery items. I am in full wedding mode now so these jelly beans caught my eye! "Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Jelly Beans" are part of the Harry Potter theme for the wedding. These will make a great addition to the candy buffet! 




Tuesday, March 14 - There has been a lot of information recently about the dangers of the colorless, odorless, radioactive gas called radon. It can cause different types of cancer (lung, thyroid, etc) if the levels are too high in your home and/or if it does not have a way to escape around your house. It has become a major health issue with the advancement of energy-saving windows, doors, and air systems. If your levels are above 4, it is recommended that you have a radon-mitigation system installed. Our level was 5 (which is on the low end but we didn't want to take any chances - especially with kids in the basement). Simon took the day off of work and was here while a contractor installed our system. This hole is in our foundation in the basement. The piping goes under the house, up through the foundation, through the garage, and up through the roof. In the attic, there is a fan that sucks the radon from under the foundation up through the roof and it is expelled into the air above our house. Once it hits that much fresh air, it dissipates and is no longer a health threat. This is one of those things that we could have put off doing but we would rather this than go through the pain of getting cancer or having a loved one get it based on a $1400 installation! I will sleep easier at night knowing this is in!



Wednesday, March 15 - How goofy are my kids? Why dress like a normal human being when you can dress like a silly crazy person?? Love them!


Thursday, March 16 - Seriously!?!? SO funny!!! This was in Jessie's parent's closet on a shelf and I just got a kick out of it! 



Friday, March 17 - We had a little girl's over nighter at Jessie's parent's AH-MAZING house (10,000 sq ft) while they were away on a vacation in Hawaii. The 6 of us had such a fun time! We went to dinner at The Blue Lemon, ate a bunch of treats, watched a movie called Belle. It was a blast!!



Saturday, March 18 - Unfortunately, I had to leave my girl's sleepover a little early but it was totally worth it for the Princess Tea Party! Mom goes all out for this fun annual tradition. We had brunch at mom's and then headed over to the movie theater to watch the new Beauty and the Beast movie. It was really cute. The girls and I had a blast with our family!


Sunday, March 19 - We are trying a new thing for the kids' birthdays this year. We are having a small Sunday dinner party for Nick and Kendra with the Howard's and having a bigger party at our house with the Pearson's. Then, for Zack and Ricki's birthdays, we'll have a big party at our house with the Howard's and a small Sunday dinner party with the Pearson's. It's a little confusing but both sides of our family are getting so big, we are hoping this arrangement works out. Anyway, this is a picture of Nick and Kendra from the Howard family birthday party. :)
