Fruit Snacks

Tom and I were at Target today and ran across this interesting sign.

Now I know that when I am shopping for "Ironing Boards" or "Ironing Accessories"...I can find the FRUIT SNACKS on the same row!?

What the heck????????

Zoo Day 3/10/09

Cade's 2nd trip to the Fort Worth Zoo with friends Bella and Jilli on 3/10/09.

Here are a few pictures of the animals we saw...

The kids had so much fun. I can't believe how well 2 girls tolerated a little boy all day! They were so good and so cute. Cade had a great time!

Addicted to Twilight



I admit it. I was a late "Twilight Bloomer". My husband bought me the 4 books for Christmas - well after all the twilight hoopla started. The movie was already out as well - although I still have not seen it! It took me 15 days to read all 4 books and the rough draft of "Midnight Sun" on the author's website. My husband thought I was insane - probably still does. However he is still supporting my addiction by buying me all of the authorized and unauthorized "guides" and "companion books". I even downloaded the CD on iTunes!!! I also pre-ordered my DVD yesterday which comes out on March 21st! I have some dear friends who have been addicted longer than I have. They too have a husband and kids. So, I found this shirt...
I am so glad to know that I am not the only 33 year old out there who is addicted to these "young adult novels".
