Where's the glass slipper?

This morning I was clearing off our table from last night's dinner so that we would have room for breakfast. (I should have cleared it last night, but that's not the point.) I was holding Colby with one arm, and trying to gather up four plates, four cups, napkins and silverware with the other. Ethan was just sitting in a chair, waiting not so patiently for his breakfast, and telling me, "get that plate...now that one...get that fork...now that one...now that cup...." I, also not so patiently, told him that I couldn't get it all at once because my hands were full. So he told me, "Cinderella puts one on her head, and one on her arm, and then some in her hands."
Now, I don't know what is more disturbing, the fact that my son has watched Cinderella so many times that he knows this, or the fact that he thinks I should be more like Cinderella!

Favorites Fall Swap

My friend just told me about this swap and it sounds like a lot of fun. Check it out. The deadline is this Friday if you want to join in.

Roughin' It

We had our ward campout this last weekend. We had a lot of fun. It made us realize how much we miss the mountains! Here are some pictures.

Tammy, this one's for you

Okay, so my little sister Tammy once had this boyfriend that was, well, interesting. He did not last long, so we didn't get to know him very well. All I really know is he did not wear socks with his shoes (gross) and he liked to use the expression, "That's off the Chain!"

Now, blame my sheltered life or whatever, but I was never quite sure what he meant by that. (Just to clear up--I have heard the expression used around since then, but this was like 3 years ago, and it was not so common, at least not in my limited social circle). Anyway, I found this shirt on Old Navy clearance a few weeks ago, and thought of "Jim" (which was not really his name, but I could never remember his real name, so that is what he was known as in our family). So Tammy, this is for you...

I think it's a pretty cute shirt, but once again, I'm not sure what it's really supposed to mean. Is it saying he's cool, or he's not in trouble? I may never know....

Jim, are you out there? Can you clear this up?

Preschool

Ethan started preschool today! I know it is not officially school yet, but it still feels like a big step for us! Here are a couple pictures of him and Emeline on the first day.
