We have enough interest that the Peep Show will go on! It will be smaller than previous years, but that is okay. :)
All-O-ver, Ol-i-vore . . . we're learning that Oliver's name has some fun mispronunciations.
Also, ask him what is name is and this is what you'll hear: "My name is Oli . . . Oli . . . Oliv . . . Oli . . . I don't know."
Here I am at SFO. Again. What should have been a 40 minute layover has turned into a 5 hour layover with merely a possibility of getting on the red-eye at 10:30. Flying standby. And if I don't get on the standby flight . . . they tell me my next shot at JFK isn't for 24 hours. Yeah. So let's hope that doesn't happen. And if I don't get on standby, well, there's got to be another way home.
S: Oliver, Is Mom a child of God?
O: Yes!
S: No, Mom is a grown up!
The one night -- ever -- when Micah and I get to bed at 10:00 and could, feasibly, get 9 hours of uninterrupted sleep, Simon wakes up crying inexplicably at midnight and can't go back to sleep, Oliver falls out of bed, and we're all out a couple of hours of sleep. Clearly we need to never try to go to to bed early. It's the only way to get a good night's sleep around here.
. . . we thought we would remind you. Peep Show entries are due to us a week from tomorrow night. April 4th. We hope your plans are coming together nicely and we can’t wait to see what you all come up with this time around.As for prizes, we have four probable donations so far: Heather (a felt crayon roll), Jodie (a tote — I think, correct me if I’m wrong), Summer and Will (undecided), and us (undecided). If you would like to contribute a little something, let us know what you will be donating by next Saturday so we can post the prizes as well as the entries. And yes, it looks like you won’t know what you are competing for until you have already submitted your entry. Not ideal, but kind of fun nonetheless. If you are into that sort of thing.
Once again, happy peeping. And Happy Palm Sunday, too.
sure. a tote. yes. Now I need to go make one…
We will provide something too!

Thanks for the reminder! I was all psyched to put something together, and then life got totally insane. I think I have the materials I need, though, so hopefully I'll be able to actually put something together. If I don't, though, I'll be really excited to see what everyone else came up with!
We bought our peeps today and have the Clarke Family gathering Saturday to help in the competition.
Hmmm….. what to donate. A new Mormon Tabernacle Christmas DVD….. A small globe…. Treats if the winner is in Utah….
