This Lunch is Minun!

Megan H. posted an article on - Jun 21, 2011, 3:49 pm
Thomas will be going on a 4-day scout campout tomorrow. After preparing his lunch for the trip, he brought me a plain paper sack and expected me to work my magic. I did the best I could with Minun. Thomas is well-pleased that no one will be able to mistake his lunch for theirs!

Genius

Megan H. posted an article on - Jun 21, 2011, 3:41 pm
I like being able to use my iPod Touch to watch movies when resting or traveling. However, I don't like to have to hold it the whole time. I looked online and only found one playful stand that I wasn't willing to pay for. I put my ingenuity to work and realized that a business card holder might ju...

More Matchy!

Megan H. posted an article on - Jun 21, 2011, 3:30 pm
For my birthday, I bought myself a green Vera Bradley purse just to have something fun and green. I also received a package from Cindee (and forgot to blog about it!). She chose another cute pattern (Sittin' in a Tree) with a more modern green and sent me a larger bag. It fits all of my stuff--in...

Life Lessons I'm Grateful to Have Learned from My Dad

Megan H. posted an article on - Jun 19, 2011, 3:27 pm
I was asked to speak in church today as the last of 3 women speakers. My topic was "Gratitude for Fathers in our Lives" and I was told specifically to talk about my dad (and Spencer, too). During a very stress-filled week, my talk was always pushed back having already brainstormed the main bullet ...

Temple Trip

Megan H. posted an article on - Jun 12, 2011, 7:21 pm
Thomas got to go to the temple for the first time yesterday to do baptisms for the dead with the youth of our ward. We decided to make it a family affair by getting a patron apartment so we could all be on the temple grounds together. We finally got out of town Friday. I say "finally" because we p...

Mistress Katie

Megan H. posted an article on - Jun 6, 2011, 9:16 pm
I finally had a free enough weekend to escape to the big city and made grand plans to do so with Katie while the boys were at Fathers & Sons. Then, food poisoning hit me... twice... in one week. So, she ended up camping with the boys at Uncle Micah's while I stayed home to convalesce. Katie was s...

Patterson and Engine 21

Megan H. posted an article on - Jun 2, 2011, 12:29 pm
Daniel and I got to tour the firehouse on base with some of our little friends and their mommies. When we got inside the firehouse, Patterson introduced himself and then had the rookie get out his gear to show us. Firemen have to be able to get dressed and into the engine in less than a minute! ...

Meet My New Sisters (& Brothers-in-Law)

Megan H. posted an article on - May 25, 2011, 3:24 pm
I really loved being introduced to wedding guests as "My new sister, Megan"! Brandy asked me if it was offensive to be called that. I told her that it was not offensive in the least. We are sisters! The hard part for me is that I haven't been able to get to know them or know about them other tha...

Petersen Wedding: Sunday

Megan H. posted an article on - May 25, 2011, 12:15 pm
I didn't sleep well. I probably only got 4-5 hours of sleep each night we were in Utah. As Daniel rolled around on the floor in our room, I got out of bed and just cuddled with him as he woke up. It was special time. I needed it. As everyone woke up, I began sorting laundry and packing bags. Ka...

Don't Put Tread on Me

Megan H. posted an article on - May 8, 2010, 3:14 pm
As I was driving across town yesterday, the van's "check tire pressure" warning came on.  I suddenly remembered a horrific crunch sound I'd heard last Sunday while backing out of Roxy's driveway.  I checked the tires and noticed the front driver's side tire was indeed defla...

Together

April 28th has not been a good day for me for the last three years. I still remember the early Saturday morning phone call, my father's voice quivering as he delivered the news of my mom's passing. I was numb. I'm not sure I've completely grieved yet. But, the tears only welled u...

Showering Sarah Jane

Megan H. posted an article on - Apr 28, 2010, 1:22 pm
No, it's not another Dr. Who post. I promise. Last night I hosted an open house for Roxy's baby girl, Sarah Jane. Lots of ladies showed up to chat, grab a bite to eat, and pass the baby. I was so tired from cooking and cleaning, I mostly plopped myself on the couch and chatted a bit. I ...

Yes, I'm still enthralled with David Tennant. I've watched YouTube clips, DVD bonus features, and scoured his IMDB page concurrently with Netflix in order to fill up the top of my queue with his movies and TV shows. Interestingly enough, from what I've already seen, he plays his charac...

Who is the Tennant of my Daydreams

Megan H. posted an article on - Apr 10, 2010, 11:10 pm
I'm a convert. I've just discovered that I LOVE Dr. Who. After years of loathing the scarf-wearing, bad graphic showing, weird sounding series of the '80s I never understood as a child... I'm a bonafide fan. I'd like to think that twinkle in his eye is just for me. *dreamy si...

The Long & Short of It

Our last trip to the Arboretum right before we moved. When we moved to Ridgecrest, my hair was about shoulder length. I told myself that I'd go through one summer with long hair just to see how it was. I learned my lesson not to do that again, and then proceeded to grow out my hair as long as...

Papa Hall turned 70. He wanted us to cook dinner for him, so we agreed to his requested menu of spaghetti, green salad, and lemon meringue pie. Not feeling completely well still, and stressing about the rest of the dinner details, I facebooked to see if anyone would like to barter a pie for organi...

Before & After Thomas still has his RPE in as well, but the braces are now on his top front teeth. I encouraged him to brush and floss well one last time before he got his new grill. Lissy readied his teeth and put the braces on without incident. She let him pick blue and green much to Tom&...
