SONOMA DIET

As some of you may have noticed that my menu is for 10 days instead of 7. There is a reason. The Deuel house is starting on the sonoma. It has a large focus on eating fresh fruits, vegis, lean meat and whole grains. Which we have always tryed to do but this is giving mommy more of a focused path to follow. The diet is set up in waves, the first wave is 10 days thus the 10 day menu. We will let you know how it goes. Sister is not very excited because it involves eating tomatoes and peppers which are two of her most dispised foods. But as mommy always says then you will be hungry in the morning :)

THE REVENGE OF THE STAIRS ON MOMMY

As many of you will remember I fell down my basement stairs in September and badly broke my tailbone.
Well Friday morning in the rush of getting out the door I missed the last step and sprained my ankle. So I spent the weekend on the couch catching up on all of my sewing projects. Really it turned out to be a nice relaxing weekend, with a little pain added in for some spice.

PASSING OF NICHOLE'S FATHER

As you see on Sunday we had a party at our friend Nichole's house. Her father suddenly passed away on Wednesday morning. We are all thankful that we were able to have one last celebration with him. And he will be deeply missed by all of the Deuels.

SUPERBOWL XLI

Tonight was the annual superbowl party at our friend's house. Everyone gets to dress in their favorite NFL team attire because none of "our" teams were actually playing in the game. So we were the Broncos (naturally). The game was ok, the halftime show was not too bad (best part was the shadow of Prince playing) and the commercials were so-so. But the hanging out with friends was alot of FUN.

MOVIE NIGHT

Tonight Mommy and Daddy will be going out with our good friends T&G. We are going to go see The Messenger and to eat dinner at the HuHot. It is going to be a fun night out.

PINEWOOD DERBY RACES

On the 29th the Deuel boys had the annual Boy Scout Pinewood Derby race. We are proud to announce that Baby Brother took 1st place again this year!!!!! But even to make us prouder Mommy must tell you what Baby Brother did upon winning 1st place. After taking first place Baby Brother said thank you but he already had a first place trophy from last year so he "gave" his place to the 2nd place winner. He is quite excited to have a 1st and 2nd place trophy!! And plans are set for next year's third place trophy so "He can have the entire set"..... What a good little guy!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA
