Easter 2013

If you're interested, I have a few photos from my Easter weekend in Missouri to share:

My longest friend and I went to Charleville for a catch-up session.  (It's both of our favorite winery in Ste. Gen.)
I was being weird & didn't like any of the pictures of us so we took one of our shadows.  As we were taking it, Jess said, "this is so much less pressure."  :)
Mom blew out her official birthday candles.  Yes, I say "official" because I was there, even though her birthday was a week earlier.

We had two egg hunts (one at my parents' and one at my grandma's).  Here are a few snapshots:
Taking photos with a little one puts a lot of pressure on the adults.  How?  If you're behind the camera, you have to be silly to get the kid's attention.  If you're in the photo, there's no room for mistakes or looking bad.  You have to look good in every photo because the one where the kid looks good is the one that's going to be picked so hope that you look good too.
I love this photo.  It's in Grandma's.  Her famous cinnamon rolls are included.  It's 4 generations.  I think it's just my style.

thanks for reading.  xoxo.

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike
I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
