A while back I was talking with a friend about The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. She asked if I had read her series for younger readers, Gregor The Overlander. No, I had not but I’m willing to give them a try. I like reading this type of stuff (besides the fact that I’m a closet science fiction nerd and kid at heart) because my kids may be reading it one day and I need to see if it’s any good plus I need to be on top of what they are/may be interested in.

Post Birthday Dinner
The day after Dear Husband’s birthday I made his birthday dinner. We went to one of our favorite Mexican restaurants on his actual b-day so he got two great meals in a row. Lucky us!
Our menu:
Grilled pork tenderloin, roasted corn on the cob, watermelon w/ mint, green salad and apple pie. Oh yum!

Is Church Overstimulated?
The following was published in our church’s’ weekly newsletter. It is written by our head minister, David Spain. I found it interesting and thought-provoking enough to post it here.
I hope you enjoy.
A couple of weeks ago I saw a billboard on the north side of Norman that read – “Rethink Church: Life is exciting, church should be also.” the message stirred some thoughts as I drove on. (more…)

Play it again, Sam.
We have entered a new phase in movie watching at our house and it makes me a little sad. I fear that the days of Disney and Pixar are behind my soon to be 1st grader.
Like most kids when Addison got a new DVD it was put into the player and became stuck on a loop and was played over and over and over and over…and over. I think the first movie that happened with was Cars. I didn’t mind it so much, it’s a good movie. Owen Wilson has a pleasant voice, the jokes are witty so I could take it.

Happy Birthday/Father’s Day
In addition to it being Father’s Day it is also Dear Husband’s birthday. There aren’t enough mushy words in the world for me to describe how much I love him. He is a wonderful husband and an amazing daddy to our boys. ‘Nuf said.

Turkey Burgers revisited
Turkey burgers sounded good again this week but I needed to add something different. I did pineapple last week and it was too soon to repeat that. I looked in the fridge and found a lone sweet potato. Lightbulb.
Sweet potato turkey burgers! (more…)
