Oh My, Veggie!

I am really freak crazy about veggies. I love the veggies. They are healthy for you. I can't image if I hate the veggies! Again, I love the veggies so much. I only hate: pickles and tomatoes. I started ate the white eggs. It was surprise tasty. So I won't eat any of the yolks anymore. 

 I had romantic lettuce. I mixed a chick peas beans, cooked mushroom, and avocado together in saucepan with olive oil. I LOVE AVOCADO! (I found out that my dad hate chick peas.)

I put the mixture of the avocado on the lettuce then I wrapped it. Ta-Da. Too deliciously!

I had been looking for delicious veggies recipes on Pinterest.com. I found some. I am exciting about it.


PS. Happy New Year 2013! (Can't believe this!)

Jordyn's Cardigan

Kelli love the color. My mom was surprised to see that. I am glad that they like it. I finished it on the 23th. Whew that was close to Christmas day.

Merry Christmas (late)

Merry Christmas.

1. We were so busy during our holiday days.

2. We went to the Godfrey's family on the 24th. We had a party. We ate baked potatoes with toppings. We opened the presents from everyone.

3. The snow was pretty bad on that day. But lucky, we were safe drove.

4. On the 25th, We wanted to stay at our house for Christmas morning to open our own presents. Wyatt got remoted truck. Emma got little people toys.

5. We packed and went to the Thourp's family and stayed overnight. On Christmas day, the weather was good. But on the next day, it was so bad than 24th of December. We drove very carefully to home from Bountiful. Sardine Canyon was behaved good. But the freeway was not behaved good. We were relieved when we got home from the bad road.

6. That's it. I got roving wool. Derek got hunter coat and a hat.

7. Hope your Christmas is good too.

8. Happy New Year!

Christmas Cookies

 Emma's

 Wyatt's

There is no word for me to talk about this. At least you can see the pictures.

It was so hard work. It was so messy in the kitchen.

Pop Jumper For Taylor

 Emma was modeling for her cousin, Taylor. It is little bit small for Emma.

 I love the brown buttons on this dress. It's looking good.

I don't know why Emma covered her face with her hands. Wyatt just want to be in the pictures.

What do you think about this dress???

PS. sorry about the messy in the background.

My Favorite

 I was blocking with a fabric stiffen. In next morning, I was shocked to see this! Rust is everywhere! You brat T-pins! The pins became rust now. It's not proof rust anymore. So I went to the store and bought the new pins. I threw away the old pins, R.I.P. you served me very well for 3 years.

 I tried to get rust covered by glitter spray paint. But we still can see it. But, bright side is that glitter looks good on a snowflake to make reality.

I forgot to buy a ribbon. I wanted to hang up on my mirror in my van. I am snow fairy. Snowflake is my favorite. I love the snow. Snow is so pretty and white everywhere. I like the snow to cover up all the dirty landscapes. I sometimes need a break from sun shine on me. I don't want UV for a while.

I feel it's Christmas when there is snow. I love white Christmas. I always dream for snowing on Christmas day.

PS. Happy 12.12.12 today. Cool number. It's last number for forever now. 2013 won't work because we don't have month 13, only 12 months. Sad.

North Pole

Oh, hello Santa Claus. We had been visited to Santa Claus in North Pole (hospital on 600 East)

 Wyatt was so scared to sit on a lap of Santa's a while ago. Now he is great and not being scared to sit on a lap of Santa's. He asked for a big truck with shovel. A girl on the right is pretending to be a reindeer.

 Oh look here, Mrs Claus. I always want to be a Mrs. Claus. I always want to live in North Pole with Santa Claus. I love the movies of Santa Claus and Christmas programs. Emma was little bit nervous but she is wonderful too.

 I don't know what she had asked for Santa.

A beautiful picture. They got the presents from the Santa Claus. We had fun time in North Pole with Santa. Let Santa go back to his work to delivery the gifts to the whole world. Merry Christmas! Be nice or coal for you if you are on a list of naughty.

Wyatt Is 5

Sorry it took me a few day to post this. My picture of Wyatt's birthday refuse to post. Anyway, we went to Kabuki the japanese restaurant. Yummy food! We had a monster truck birthday cake. Wyatt's grandparents Thorup came to our house. Wyatt got a train Thomas toy and Emma also have Minnie Mouse matching cards game from their grandparents. We gave his a present: Star War sword. He loves them. Their grandparents Godfrey gave them the toys: The Cars car for Wyatt and a little pink heart purse for Emma. It was fun.

I can't believe that he is already five! I still remember when he was born. I miss his little body. I still remember when he was crawled on his back instead on his stomach. He had burn smell on his hair because of the carpet burn during he was crawled on his back. I remember dearly when Wyatt was in our living room in our old apartment, when we were in our master bedroom for something, then we were surprised to see Wyatt crawled on his back all the way to our bedroom's door from the living room. He was only 6-7 months old. We was like in awe! I miss those moments. *sighs*

Oh, I Eat You, Santa

Mmm! it's wiltons candy with vanilla and colorburst and santa mold. The kids are love it. I want to make a tradition for this than baking the cookies. Bake the cookies are messy than just microwave the vanilla to melt then put them in the molds with the sticks. It's easier and fun than clean up the flour mixture. Sorry that we are eating you, Santa. I can't wait for Christmas to come.

Today, we will be visiting the Santa at the hospital. Last time, the kids were fright by Santa. I am hoping this time, this year is better and excited to see Santa.

My First Spun

 My brand new spinning wheel. It's made in Kromski company from GA. I love it.

 My first spun cotton yarn. It was so awkward at the beginning but I will get over it.

 Beauty.

Thank you, Judith Mackenzie McCuin, she is spinner. I love this book. I have 3 books that are Teach Yourself Visually. There are a lot of the photos with how-to.

I am self-taught myself. I never went out for the classes to learn anything.

It's relief my stress. And it's super fun.

Too Many

The kids' medicines. I was shocked to see this that many of the medicines. The kids' ears are better now than last week. Emma was sleeping like a baby, so do I. Thanks to the medicines that helped them to get feel better. Wyatt's eye is better from pink eye. He has a eye drops for pink eye. I washed everything in house to get rid of virus.

Stolen

 Well, Emma stole my pink sofa chair. It's my knitting chair. It's so comfortable chair. Sometimes it makes me sleepy.

 So I decided to sit on a couch. Emma is always snuggling beside me on a pink chair. I need more space for knitting. I was surprised that knitting on a couch is comfort too. I have a stool for my legs. I just finally cast off of back for cardigan. Now I am focus on knitting a purse that needs to be finish.

I don't want to left Wyatt out. So here he is. He watches a TV show.

November Is The Best!!!

I wanted to say that November was the best month ever! It's not normal for us to have a best month. There are a few reasons why it is the best:

1. We have a brand new floor in our kitchen. When we bought our new house back in 2008, our old floor had some of damaged. I couldn't wait for a new floor. Derek said we will have a new floor in someday. Now we did accomplished our goal. November was right time to get new floor. We love our floor! My parents were at my house yesterday for Wyatt's birthday. My parents love it too. They said it looks so nice! I am happy. Again, thank you, Flooring America!

2. We got an iPad 2 and an iPad mini. I love it so much. I can't image without it. I once said "why didn't I get it a while ago?!" But it is 2 years worth waiting for them. We also have an iPod touch, it's for the kids. Now I can't wait for iPhone 5 for us and a mac book air laptop next year. I love to use iPad for General Conference ASL!

3. We got the brand new pair of shoes for us. (Not for the kids, they will have a new pair of shoes next year, the shoes are still fitting them, and I am not wasting my money) Derek got a pair of shoes- golf shoes Denver. I got a pair of shoes- Dansko (Whew it's quite expensive kinds)

4. I got a spinning wheel! I am so super excited about this!

5. We have a bike training standing for indoor bike to ride. I love to bike. So I can knitting and cycling at the same time.

6. November is always the best for Christmas shopping. We are done with our shopping. Nice.

7. November is pretty month-- pretty colors of autumn. Crispy cool weather temperature. Of course, Thanksgiving!!

8. Oh, November, pumpkin pie is champ!!

9. Unbelievable that Thanksgiving is gone. I am looking forward for next year.

PS. Derek got the best bonus check...that's why November is the best month. (I didn't want to be ego/pride of this bonus check, but we were very lucky to have it.)

Tangled

The kids were watched a movie 'Tangled'. Wyatt wanted to have a long blonde hair. So he found a way, he used my bed sheet as a long red hair. I think that's funny. He is smart kid. He was just dancing and play around with a pretend hair with Rapunzel.

NEW FLOOR!!!

Ta-da new floor! I fell in love with it. My eyes are glued to it. I can't move my eyes away from it. So pretty floor. I feel like a new house over again. Thank you, Flooring America.

Bye-bye old ugly floor. A carpet was cut off a little bit from hole.

We had a couple of men to installed it for us. We bought it from Flooring America.

 I copied my cousin, Hallie. This is great idea to write it down. Yes, my toes nails are Christmas colors.

 You can see a chipped by the corner.

 Yes, it is taped across from refrigerate to end of wall. I didn't put the tape. A person who had lived this house before us did put the tape on it. My cousin, Hallie, her old floor had stapled on it. I think that's funny.

 The carpet is getting worse and worse. So this month is good time to get a new floor. Bye-bye carpet. R.I.P.

This is before a new floor installed. Hi Wyatt, Peek-A-Boo!

Bike

Yes! It is a bike train standing. So I can cycle anytime in winter season. I even can knitting during biking too! Fun! It's only motive for me to keeping up my exercise. I am happy. Of course, the kids are playing with it. I kept yelled at them to back off. Oh well.

My Weekend

 *Sighs* Yes, the kids were sleeping on my bed. Emma kept kicking on me all night. I gave in, I put Emma back to her bed, but she came back again. Wyatt came too. Lucky for Derek, He was working last night. I am tired right now. I haven't had a good sleep last night. I don't know why. Emma is struggling with her sleep in her own bed. Also she still naps too. Wyatt rarely comes to my bed. I am still working on Emma. It started since when she stopped using her pacifier. She needs to break a habit of this. If she doesn't have a nap, then she will have a good sleep. If she has a nap then she refuse to sleep until about 1 AM.

Noticed that I bought a new bed sheets. I have 3 sheets since I got married. I desperately wanted to buy the new sheets.

Derek loves silk sheets. I hate silk sheets! I prefer smooth cotton.

I went to Beach Planet spa. I went in for HypoBed. It's water massage bed. I went in for FREE! They gave me an extra 5 more minutes. I enjoyed it. I love hot water under on my back. It's so relaxing! A mother needs that kind of relax from the kids. I prefer to have a massage than tan bed. Sorry that my blackberry phone picture is bad.

I am still working on my knitting cardigan. The Thanksgiving weekend was so busy. We will have a new floor on Wednesday. Yay! Can't wait for it.
