From the Larsen Kitchen

Brett & I made a wonderful soup a few weekends ago. Soup is one of our favorite things to cook, it simmers all day and lets all the flavors marry together!!! My job is usually more of the Sioux chef. I take care of the spices and minor chopping, anything that needs to be assembled and proportioned is Brett's job. This was a pork won ton and homemade chicken soup & it was soooooooooo good!!!

Gooseberry Falls - I give you this...

Swine Flu??

A week ago from Sunday Andrew came down with something. He just woke up feeling terrible. I kept him home from school on Monday and called to chat with his doctor ( well really his nurse ). Because of his symptoms & the fact that his asthma is so bad they elected to treat him for flu. Tuesday Andrew is still home, now Brandon has whatever it is, I go to work & Brett call's when he wakes up. Guess what? Now Brett has it too. So I talked to the nurse again and they elected to treat both Brandon and Brett. Wednesday morning... Now I have it!!! UGGGGG!!!!

So Andrew missed Monday thru Wednesday, Brandon missed Tuesday thru Thursday & Brett was home Tuesday & Wednesday & I was home Wednesday & Thursday! Not a good week!!! The doctor didn't event want any of us to come in to the office to be tested, they just asked the symptoms and treated us all with Tamiflu. So I guess we'll never know for sure if it was the dreaded H1N1 virus or not, don't really care, it was not fun whatever kind of flu it was!!!

I miss blogging

So our computer us is still dead, but we got a new laptop. We are also on vacation right now, and though I have not taken the time yet to upload our pictures from our last camping trip to Interstate Park in Wisconsin, I promise I will soon! The lack of updates has been killing me!

Technical difficulties

Sorry for the lack of post's, it's not that we have nothing to share, but two children infected our computer with a nasty virus that we can not fix just yet! Never fear, we are working on it! Our lack of post's is not because we don't love you all !

Happy Birthday Brett!

Happy Birthday to the love of my life! If you ask him he'll tell you he's 29 again! Those of us who know and love him ( or not ) know his true age! Here's to you baby! I love you, Happy Birthday!

New Moon

So here is a look at the New Moon poster unveiled today. I know that the first movie was truly disappointing, but we can still hope for better right?

From Gold medals to Disco Ball Trophies

The Dancing With The Stars finale just ended and we have a new champion: Shawn Johnson and her partner Mark Ballas! I'm glad that they won, I did also like Gilles ( he was not hard to watch ) but I am really glad that Shawn won!

How was your day?

So I got home from work tonight and went to change out of my work clothes to my much more comfy Jammie's when I discovered that there was a HUGE whole in the rear end of my pants! I am seriously hoping that it was not like that all day long! I would hope someone would have said something to me! How embarrassing! :) And how was your day?

Awards ceremony

We just got back from the kid's spring conferences and as usual they went great! Nothing negative & everything positive about both boy's! We also got copies of report cards and both of the boy's have made the A honor roll again! Both of them have been invited to a high honor roll recognition ceremony on April 21st. Only students who have maintained a 3.5 GPA or higher for the first three quarters of the year are eligible for this ceremony! Yeah!! Congrats boys!! Mom and Dad are soooooo proud of you! :)

Happy Birthday Brando!

Happy Birthday to Brandon! Hard to believe he is 12 years old today!

He received a Haro bike for his b-day, his best b-day present ever he says. That is until I remind him that last year he got his dog for his b-day!

Pneumonia and more Pneumonia

Sorry for the lack of posts lately. It is not that I have nothing to post, but Brandon and I have both had pneumonia and are still recovering. He got his first, about two weeks ago, and he is feeling almost back to 100 percent. I on the other hand, got it a week ago and am only about 45 percent better. So once we are able to breathe and are feeling up to it, there will be more to come!

Conspiracy solved

So as you can see, after much time spent hunched over the computer trying to figure out the problem, I finally got my background changed! I have to give a shout out to The Cutest Blog on the Block, their technical support team actually ended up helping me figure out the problem! And they still have super-cute backgrounds. Check it out!

Background conspiracy

I have been trying to change my blog background for like the last 3 weeks at least! For some reason, it doesn't matter what background I pick, or from where, it will not change! I am really getting frustrated! When I originally load my page, I will see the background that I have tried to install, then it changes to the old one. If anyone can help, please let me know, because I am so not happy right now! Please, please, please help! I may end up hurting the computer if I can't figure this out!
