ten on tuesday

1. Matthew's birthday is in a couple weeks and we are planning a pirate birthday party. Argggg! It's lots of fun! Anybody have any fun ideas?

2. We were blessed with a visit from Maya and Auntie Faye this weekend. I'll try to post some pictures soon.

3. I have been drinking (at least) one rootbeer float a day since Saturday night when I got the clever idea to buy vanilla ice cream and a 2 litre of rootbeer. Yummm.

4. Matthew's farewell for preschool is on Thursday. I think I'll make tarts again and bring them for the potluck.

5. I'm a little bit worried about weighing in at my weight watchers meeting on Thursday night (due to the rootbeer floats and cherry tarts)

6. Caleb's imagination is developing like crazy and he pretends his crackers are people talking to each other. And then he eats them. It's so cute.

7. We have a new computer! And it seems to be working!

8. I made these grilled chicken wraps for supper yesterday and they were quite fast and yummy. :)


9. Matthew was excited to borrow this book from the library today.


10. And Caleb wanted a pirate dvd and found this one. Arggg! (practicing my pirate noises)


Thanks for checking in on me! I'm predicting that I'll be quite busy for the next month or so, but then I'll be on summer holidays! Yippee!

A root beer float sounds pretty good. Have fun with all of your parties coming up!

I love root beer floats, that's the beverage of choice on New Year's Eve... with the kiddos and frosted mugs. yum.

Pirates?? oh, fun. Oriental trading has lots of fun stuff.
Treasure hunt? maps made yellow with lemon juice and heat, secret codes, chocolate coins... I made a treasure chest cake with lots of candy "bounty." Loads of fun!

Love root beer floats!
We just had those at Evan's b'day party thanks to my parents. Now I have a ton of ice cream and root beer in my fridge and was thinking of having one tonight! :0)

Anyway, we've been into cowboys, dinosaur hunters and army guys lately. We haven't discovered pirates yet. I'm waiting for that day :0)
And Katy already had my treasure hunt idea ;0)
