In early February, we spent a lot of time with my side of the family when the Garns were in town. This is my 8-year-old nephew, Jack, reading to Dallin. Jack asked to read to him and I couldn't pass up taking a photo of these two cute, red-headed cousins. They are the only two red-heads out of my mom's 18 grandchildren. However, word is that baby Ryan Burnham's hair is finally growing in and it's looking red too. So there might be another one yet. Hooray for carrot tops!

We went to Ikea the other day for Danny, who served his mission in Sweden. He loves that country so much and Ikea is just a little piece of Sweden. We went for the food, both from the restaraunt and from the little market. We ordered the meatball dinners and bought chocolate, candy, a drink, meatballs, and the gravy from the market.

Our house went on the market a couple of weeks ago. Seeing the sign outside our house is a sad dose of reality. Say a prayer and keep your fingers crossed that it will sell.

This is undoubtedly the most-worth it burn I've ever had. I've gotten burned before cooking or curling my hair, but this one I got while eating one of the most exquisite desserts I've ever had. It's called a "skookie" (also known as "pazookie" for you Oregano's patronizers) from Streamers. This is no ordinary chocolate chip skookie, however. This particular one consists of a white chocolate chip macadamia nut cookie, coconut ice cream, white chocolate sauce, and crunchy baked coconut flakes on top. It is utter ambrosia. Unfortunately, in the midst of my gluttony, my arm touched the searing hot cast iron skillet in which the skookie was baked and the result is a painful burn with a huge blister. But again, it was worth it!
