January 25 - February 2, 2010

February 2, 2010: I kidnapped my sis-in-law Savanna to go see When in Rome - we have both been dying to see it! After an exciting car ride she did end up walking through the whole mall looking this way (she is also wearing ear plugs and was plugging her nose and eating chocolate the whole time so that she would be as disoriented as possible). Dinner: Spinach Egg Risotto

February 1, 2010: Worked my first day at Covenant Employment Services and got a nice feel from the company. We mostly did paperwork today - Wednesday give me a better idea of what will really be happening. Dinner: Mexican bean and rice fry up (all organic - don't let the 'fry' worry you)

January 31, 2010: Spinach Artichoke Pizza kicks off my goal of cooking 5 of the 7 nights of this upcoming week and the next!!

January 29, 2010: Michael and Nick pulling out the love sac for a fun movie date night!

January 27, 2010: Just hanging out with the Tankster!

January 25, 2010: Family bowling night!

January 22 - 24, 2010

January 24: This year we had a Heartfelt Christmas : A Christmas where the only mula you can spend on your gifts is for supplies on something that you make for the recipient. I have been really worried lately about how to organize our stuff in our little apartment. This was my gift from Michael. He made me a shelf that sits on the lip of our extra bathtub so that we have a flat surface in there and can use it for storage. Isn't he amazing!?

January 23: Nick got home from his mission on January 8th, so we waited until this weekend to have our family gift exchange. "Christmas" morning we all slept out under the Christmas tree in Michael and I's living room. So fun!

Nick's new stocking... It sings and dances.

Tank just hanging out on Christmas!

January 22: Our office chair broke... Michael is in denial

January 19 - 21, 2010

January 21, 2010: Tank has been pretty darn good about potty-ing in the right place but today we had a breakthrough! He had to go big potty and ran over to his potty pan, squatted (though you can't tell that well with his 2 inch legs), did his little trademark poopie spin, and here you have it. Beautiful:

January 20, 2010: When I left work on Wednesday I drove for about 50 feet before realizing that something felt very wrong. I pulled over and found myself to be driving on my rim on the back left side! After Michael came to my rescue we found a giant razor shoved in the tire! Here is the final result... you can decide on the proper amount of points that need to go on his man card.

January 19, 2010: After asking him for suggestions on food that we could make in mass for an upcoming event, my brother in law Jon decided to treat us to a world-class taste test. I had such an amazing time trying the tomatoes with mozzarella, apple, basil, and balsamic; roasted peppers; and asparagus with an orange glaze that I forgot to take a picture of the finished product. Even better documentation though... the producer. Here is Jon - the one that has single handedly walked my taste buds through a reason to make it to the celestial kingdom's buffet line:

January 16 - 17, 2010

As an update:
I weighed in this morning at 131.6 - going down!
I have read scriptures every day this week!

January 17, 2010: Sweet Merrick made apple crisp as dessert for dinner tonight - she made me this personal little pan without chocolate so that I could enjoy it too!
