A Fun Week

We had a nice week this week.  We were all healthy (!).  The weather was decent.  Dustin quit his job.  What a great week!
On Monday I took the boys and met up with my sisters at a Children's Museum.  For how close we live to each other (about 30 minutes) we really don't get together enough.  This was a fun afternoon though, and a nice break from the normal.

 This picture was taken right before Grant moved in for a kiss.  She is a very patient cousin.

 This was the Music Room, and we made a lot of, um, music.

 Hello, Mr. President.

 Ryan has a great imagination.  I think he actually thought he was riding a real horse right here.

A few days later Lynnette and I went to a cooking class that Dustin had given me for Christmas (and Lynnette was nice enough to come along, too).  It was called "Cooking Without a Recipe".  It was so much fun.  It was like being on a Food Network Challenge.  There was a table full of ingredients and each group got to pick whatever we thought would be "wild" and "bold".  My group made roasted veggies in bacon grease with marjoram and mint (and a few other yummy spices), couscous seasoned with garlic, cilantro and lime, and tilapia with an apricot cream sauce.  It all turned out so delicious and it was so much fun.  The last couple of days I have been using my new found cooking bold-ness and have been cooking without using a recipe and just adding what I think will taste yummy.  So far, so good.

Yesterday, our thermometer read 64 degrees outside, so we loaded the kids up and headed to Park City for the afternoon.  It was a beautiful day and very busy in Park City.  We walked up and down Main Street, rode the trolley and ate pizza.  It was nice to get out of town.

Dustin was there, too, although somehow I ended up in all the pictures.  He will be starting a new job in a couple of weeks, so we get to enjoy him (and put him to work fixing things around the house) for the next little while.  It is like having a "stay-cation"!  We are really excited for his new job and feel like it is a huge blessing.
