Build Your Blog Conference Wrap Up
I had the great opportunity to go to the Build Your Blog Conference this past weekend thanks to Taste of Home. I had a plan of what I wanted to accomplish. I had questions written down for specific classes and for specific people. Thankfully I was able to get many questions answered and I was exposed to many new ideas.
There are many things I learned this weekend. I thought I'd share a few to get an idea of what a conference is like and what to expect.
Little America was fabulous and ...
In just one week…BYBC
I'm so excited that in just one week I am going to BYBC- the Build Your Blog Conference. I was not planning on going but thanks to Taste Of Home for sponsoring me I am able to attend.

I am getting some buisness cards printed so I can connect with other bloggers and affilliates.

Day 1 post-op morning
Haley had a rough night. They had to wake her up every hour to get her to do things like talk and move. Jeremy stayed here with her. I was with the baby who didn't sleep much better. Jeremy went to my parents home to hopefully try to get some rest. Thankfully Haley has been sleeping very well since coming back from another MRI she had this morning. I would love to see the before MRI and this MRI side by side. In fact we want to get a copy just to show her when she is older. She might be ...
Special Announcement!
I have exciting news!
We are moving to WordPress!
I will be saying farewell to my Google Friends Connect widget but hope that if you are following me via GFC that you will find a new way to connect {i.e. Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google+, etc}.
We will also be taking a break until the beginning of the year. My Little Chefs are out of school this entire month and have been looking forward to some extended quality time together.
Don't worry, we will be back ...
Lessons Learned from Cooking with Kids and My Favorites
Upon reflecting this year cooking with my Little Chefs here are a few things I have learned:
Never have a set time for dinner, you will ALWAYS run late.
Measure all ingredients out into separate bowls BEFORE adding to the main bowl.
Review, review, review. For each skill taught review and reteach over and over again.
When Little Chefs choose the recipes they are more excited to make them and eat them.
Explore different flavors and tastes, especially those YOU do not like. Let the ...

Restaurant Review: Cafe Bella Rue
This past Monday we went to Mangia Mangia Monday (pizza and soda night) at Cafe Bella Rue located in Daybreak, Utah. Thin crust pizza's are discounted and fountain drinks are $0.50! What a great deal for a family outing! We tried the Margehrita, Three Meat, and Mediterranean Pizzas. There are a lot of us, but there was not one piece left uneaten. We were especially intrigued by the Mediterranean Pizza; Roasted Red Peppers, Artichoke Hearts, Onions, Green Bell Peppers, Mushrooms, Black Olives ...
Off On Vacation
The Little Chefs are off track so we have been doing some traveling. We have had a rough few months and have needed to take a break and just have fun away from home! Denver was last week which was a work and play trip. We are on our way home from Southern California today which was a play trip. I'm hoping to stop by the M&M; store in Vegas today. I told the Little Chefs about it weeks ago when we were planning the details, but then plans were drastically changed. I'm still hoping we can ...
