Doll Museum

We had the opportunity last Saturday to go with the other girls in Abby's class (all of the girls except for one were able to go) to the Museum of Doll Art. One of the mom's had bid and won a tour and tea party and she invited the class. We all got dressed up for the day. Everyone wore hats and each girl took their favorite doll. After having tea we went on a tour of the museum. The moms got carried away with our camera's and took a lot of pictures before the tea party.

Anniversay Trip to Vancouver

Matt and I try to get away for a night or two each year to celebrate our anniversary. This year we didn't do it in February but were able to spend two nights in Vancouver a couple weeks ago. It was the first time we left Sam overnight. Both of the kids did great. They spent one night with Uncle Jess and Aunt Katy and the other night with Nana and Grandpa. We had a great time. On Thursday night we went to a Canucks game. Friday morning we went out to breakfast, did some shopping, and went to the Anthropology museum. The weather was not very good so we didn't do any outdoor touring. Then Friday night we went to a little Irish pub (since it was just after St. Patrick's Day) and watched some of the NCAA tournament. Here are some pictures.




I didn't take my coat off the whole time we were at the game. It's cold in an ice rink! The Canucks won 3-0.

How much do you spend....

on groceries each month? I don't feel like I go overboard and buy extravagant food items but we spend so much money on groceries each month. I'm curious to know if other people struggle with this as well. Please tell me what you do to save on your food bill without eating Top Ramen every day.
