Mortensen Memoirs: July 2011
http://melaniemortensen.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 29, 2011. Having seen this info-mercial,. My 12yo decided it was something worth purchasing. Not wanting to dampen his enthusiasm for the project, but definitely NOT buying some crap off a tv ad, I decided to show him a fun contraption already in our kitchen that would make the exact same thing- the ice cream maker! Totally embarrassing that we haven't pulled it out yet this summer! He wanted to try the chocolate milk flavor first (we've experimented with kool-aid and gatorade- both yummy!

Mortensen Memoirs: June 2010
http://melaniemortensen.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 15, 2010. Bye Bye, Conrad Birdie! I thought I'd post some fun pics of the aftermath to my latest musical, CJH's "Bye Bye Birdie". I'll admit, it happens to me every year: I think the show is a complete disaster, worthy of putting off for another two months to rehearse every single song, and somehow those darling children get on stage in their amazing costumes, and do better than I could have ever dreamed! What are we doing next year! This was the year- HOORAY! I think they are pointing to t...

Thursday, December 13, 2012. We went to Cornbelly's with some friends during Fall Break and had a blast! So many fun things to do there, and we actually ran out of time and had to rush through the maze! I was really impressed that there were so many fun things for so many different age groups. Nice job, Corny! M as The Hulk. S as Super Girl! Ok, not technically a super hero, but she looked AWESOME! Me as Wonder Woman (natch'ally! And Hubby as Superman (of course!

http://melaniemortensen.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-big-reveal-kitchen-remodel-final.html
Thursday, December 13, 2012. Kitchen Remodel, final post! I am embarrassed to admit that I don't really have any good pics of that final reveal. But for good reason! We got the pantry in that next week, and my sweet mom helped me put the place back together, working from dawn to midnight that entire week! She ran all my errands, grabbed the last few decorations, painted chairs, painted the sofa back dresser (six times! Ran returns and more errands, and seriously saved my sanity! This is in the family roo...

Mortensen Memoirs: April 2011
http://melaniemortensen.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 10, 2011. Things I love about Spring . . . 1 New budding leaves on the trees. 2 The beginning of baseball season . . . I'm a little addicted, and with my husband heavily involved in the league, I've come to love it! The uniforms, the bat bags, breaking in new mitts, staring down a batter from the pitcher's mound, skipping off to first base at your first t-ball practice . . . (that's for the girls, the boys pretty much barrel down the line). 5 Spring colors- pastels, brights, happiness.

Friday, December 24, 2010. Oh, and one more thing . . . I am so happy that today is today! I am SO excited for tomorrow! I almost feel like my kids! I LOVE Christmas, and I love my decorations, my trees (first year with a kids' tree and a "real" tree (aka, Mommy's tree)- I LOVE having all the decorations the kids made or picked out on one, and the fragile, pictures-through-the-years on the other! The food, the snow (or lack thereof- very sad this year! So here you go:. Thursday, December 9, 2010. And it ...
