A Bit of Randomness

Well, this will kind of random today. I'm home sick with yet another cold. In the past month I've had the stomach flu and 2 colds. I'm hoping my immune system will get better (cursed 1st graders giving me all their illnesses!).


So for my first bit of randomness, I wanted to share a recipe. One of the parents of one of my 1st graders brought these in on Friday and I DIED. . . they are SOOO good and so easy. All you need is square pretzels, Hershey's Hugs, and M&M's. Unwrap the Hugs and place each one on a pretzel. Put them in the oven for 350 for 2 minutes. Then, place an M&M on top of the melted Hug and voila! The parent who made these gave me a bag of them and I've been eating them NONSTOP! Yummy!

Last weekend, we also had a little family reunion with Sam's family. Some of his family had made plans to come into town and so we planned a little reunion. We had great dinners on Saturday and Sunday, and other than that, we all sat around Sam's parents', played the Wii and just hung out. It was pretty fun! I'm really glad that we took some pics because the last pics that Sam and I had of his family was at our wedding, and half of the family wasn't in it (and most of them weren't even born then). How the family has grown! What fun!
