We're all aware of the number of times I've mentioned how slammed pack Seth and I are with living our lives. I'm also positive that any and everyone reading this is feeling the same way, and I think we should all pat each other on the back :). We are just a filled to the tee generation and I most certainly know nothing is going to slow down any time soon-if ever!
Our schedules are simply just filled up everyday from sunup to sundown. Every minute is just about scheduled with something or another, but we are sooo enjoying it all :).
Now, moving from complaining to the fun stuff.
Last weekend we got a a few inches of snow in our parts, so we decided to go sledding with friends and their youngin's. I don't recall a time where I've gone sledding before, so sweet little Madilynn took me down for my first sledding experience.

Last weekend Seth and I also tried out creating our own gnocchi and pasta sauce. It was fun and very tasty.

Very tasty.
Flan
After we decided we wanted to make gnocchi I got in the mood to bake a flan. Two totally different ethnic foods, but we totally put them together and enjoyed them.
Tuesday my cousin Tommy fly into Salt Lake City to oversee a few things with his work for two days. He stayed in West Jordan, which is about 20-30 minutes South of Salt Lake City. We were able to meet up in Salt Lake for dinner last night at a very yummy Brazilian restaurant. It was great other than the constant interruptions with our waiter and the men bringing the variety of meat options to us every few minutes. Seth and I had a great time seeing Tommy and catching up. I had to be nerdy and get a picture of the three of us-how often does a family member get sent to Utah for work?!
Us w/ Tommy :).
We've recently found out that Seth needs to wear glasses while reading-working on the computer-and driving. I can tell you he is such a stud in them, and I've finally gotten glasses that are the correct prescription! I'll have to capture a photo soon with both of our new glasses.
That's about all I've got for now! Hope everyone has a very memorable Lent season and sets aside time to remember what this season is ALL about.
The Cook's :).
