the list is back! Seven Favorites
1. I've renewed my love of Los Angeles. I've been twice in the last month with friends and our family has gone to LA to do activities too. I've lived here nearly all my life and hardly went to LA. I still have never been to the Hollywood sign. So after going to LA for my birthday and then going back with Jessica and Bonnie a couple weeks ago their excitement reminded me of how much I'm taking for granted. There is lots to do around here and I have little reason to "get bored" with my surroundings. Just last week my sisters and I took our kids (those that weren't at school) to the beach and it was a beautiful day. I sent Steve a text telling him that days like those make me wonder why I want to leave California so bad.

February list Instagram Style
February was a good month and one of my new favorite past times, Instagram, was how I captured the great moments that made up February for our Rasmussen household.
1. A GNO with one of my dearest friends started off great in such an inspiring parking lot. Each stall has a meaningful message.
3. Cousins can really bring the best out in us. When Sadie's cousin Zane is at class with her she is much more outgoing.
4. Sleep is a true waste of time when other cousins are spending the night and they brought a fun game to play! We had Adam, Jake and Evan over for a sleepover so that Anna and Allen could get some one on one time before he leaves for deployment. It was a lot of fun! Sadie loves her cousin Evan but I'm not sure how long Evan will play along. We're so excited that Al and Anna are expecting another baby!
5. Having a little fun with how much I want to be skinny.
6. Sadie loves to ride her bike she got for Christmas but I think its too small for her already! Darn kids grow too fast.
9. Silly faces at lunch time. Love them!
10. A trip to the temple and a tasty lunch. I find so much peace at the temple and I'm one of the lucky ones to have a temple just 10 minutes away. Again, like running at the beach, I wish the stars would align more often so I could spend more time there but that is just not the phase of life I'm in. My favorite lunch these days is my favorite wheat bread (alpine valley) with avocado, tomato and some salt. Yum.
11. Cupcakes and pictures. I had the opportunity to bake some cupcakes for some actual paying customers! Ok, they were friends but it still counts right? And the boys made some pretty cool drawings at church one Sunday. Of course, Ethan's is all military and Luke's is Harry Potter. I love these boys and their drawings. Please, someone slow down the time.
12. Silly dads and a beach day. I know its February but we live in Southern California and sometimes we just get to go to the beach. The ocean is FREEZING but does that stop my boys? Um, not one bit. Sadie won't touch the water with a ten foot pole, she's terrified, but she loves playing in the sand. And she loves wearing her swimsuit. She dances around the house in that thing and I have to convince her to put some clothes on top of it when we have to leave the house.
13. February is mostly wrapped up by the time my birthday rolls around. This year it fell on a Saturday so we packed everyone up in the car and headed to Los Angeles to the California Science Center. It was spectacular and we didn't even get through half of it. We watched an IMAX movie "Born to be Wild" that left me wanting to go take care of cute little elephants in the Serengeti. After they kicked us out at closing time we headed to the best place to get Brazilian food, when you're not in Brazil...Cafe Brasil! Mmmm...it was delicious and tasted just like the real thing. And just like being in Brasil, I was absolutely stuffed.
14. Ok, well, to wrap up February Sadie and I went to Disneyland and I couldn't believe it when she asked to wait in line to see Rapunzel. Even after waiting in line for 30 minutes she still wanted to wait. She was so excited but I don't know why I was surprised when she completely clammed up as soon as we were in Rapunzel's presence. I just love my little princess and that I'm completely ok with calling her my princess.
