New Jensen

Aaron and Elizabeth finally have a baby
(and not just a bump anymore)

James Matthew Jensen
was born today @ 8:18 am
6 lbs 11 oz


which means the guessing game is finally over!
Click here for a refresher
Baby James will leave the hospital with $77.50

And, the proud mommy is the winner for the other $77.50!
I guess mom really always does know best ;)

Congratulations Aaron and Elizabeth!

Christmas Eve!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Not the best video, but you get it!

This is a house here in Vernal. The kids loved it!
(So do Michael and I)

Winner

Apparently the question was not as difficult
as I thought it was going to be.

But, April answer first and is the winner!

I still can't believe that's all they came with!

Jeopardy!

Let's Play!

I'll take "Wed. Dec. 2, 2009 at the Batty Home" for $1000.00 Alex

Answer: "One pair of jeans, one set of pajamas, no socks, and no toothbrush."

...... ?


(There is not a $1000.00 prize associated with this question)

But! Just to get more "playing" action, I will send a prize to the first person
to guess the right answer! If you can by Friday Sat. Dec. 4th, 2009.

(Prize unknown at this time)

I like the whole fine print thing... and yes, I know I'm going overboard with it!

(One more, I can't resist. Nichole J. you're excluded because I've already ranted to you about the answer!)
I love you anyway!

The Cake Boss...

... is definitely not me!

I did make the cake.
I baked & I decorated,
Not from a box, from scratch and
Not because I have baking skills, or time, or creativity,

Simply because I thought it would save money.

Which, it most certainly did NOT!

I originally planned on making cupcakes and cupcakes alone.
But, the cake batter I made did not fair well as cupcakes.

So, I made a double layer cake and had to buy all the decorations!

I'm not going to talk about what I did not accomplish, but I will tell you what I did accomplish:

Fallen Cake... Check (you just can't tell because of the angle of the photo)
Spent more money on DIY cake... Check
Last min. rush to the store for cake decorations... Check
Spent too much time on the cake and not other important things... Check
Made a cake with Love that my son will not remember... Check
Convinced myself to buy my cakes... CHECK!

Where did Yesterday go?

Bitter Sweet was this weekend.

Where O Where Did Yesterday Go?

Happy Birthday Little Man
