What should we name our blog?

By -
I am the opposite of creative with words, and have no idea what to name our blog. So, I came up with the lamest name ever: Elise and Austin Brown. Please comment and give better ideas. Thanks!

    Justin suggests "Brown Town," "Cyber Swimmers..." How about "Cold Sunshine Adventures" or "the adventures of cold in the sunshine?" or something equally enigmatic and vague. haha, I'm glad you've got a blog! I'm excited to follow it and read it! You know I do...:D

A Mommy's International Flight essentials

By -
Image
My carry-on bag for international flights is my diaper backpack. I set aside some room for diapers, wipes,  snacks, and an extra outfit for my toddler, and use the remaining space to bring a few things for myself on board. Here are my favorite essentials to bring on a LONG flight: - Individually wrapped (or a small package) of antibacterial hand wipes. I picked this up by reading other travel blogs. I wipe down every surface around our seat that my toddler to conceivably touch or lick. For super long flights, a little peace of mind goes a long way. - Ibuprofen, homeopathic motion sickness meds and dramamine : headaches happen. Occasionally with turbulence I get motion sick. I start with the homeopathic motion sickness meds and if they don't work, dramamine will do the trick! - Children's tylenol and Peace and Calming essential oil: These are for my son for his ears (tylenol) and to help him fall asleep after the initial excitement wears off from being on an airplane. ...

LDS Quiet Book Extravaganza

I finally finished enough pages to put my quiet book together! Landon already had a store bought Bible quiet book, so I focused on a Book of Mormon/Church History/LDS general theme. For materials I used a heavy weight Pellon for the pages. It is much easier to work with vs. felt, and lasts a long time. I used a combination of stiff and soft felt for everything that goes on the page. I would have used all stiff felt, but Hancock Fabrics did not have all the colors of stiff felt that I wanted. Instead of stitching on the lettering, I wrote on the Pellon with sharpie. SO much easier. I used many different blogs for ideas, and tweaked the designs here and there to make it work for me. Here are the pages:  The first page I did was Lehi's vision of the Tree of Life found in 1 Nephi 8. The iron rod is a silver ribbon, and Nephi can move along it. The fruit snaps on and off and the tree and Lehi's hand. The great and spacious building is off to the left. I got this template from  ...

Driver's Ed for the Utah Driver...

By -

I feel that I am an experienced driver. I have had a total of 5 tickets, and been in 3 minor accidents. I have been pulled over many more times than that. Ok, so maybe I have extremely bad luck. Yet, I believe that I am much more safe than most people on the road here in Utah. I don't blame the drivers themselves, but the quality of driver's ed in Utah. Here are some of the major things that I think people in UT should know: 1. Just because one person taps on the brakes does not mean the next person should slam on the brakes. This creates a chain reaction that goes on for miles. I cannot count the number of times I have almost rear-ended people on the freeway due to individuals not following this rule. 2. If you need to slow down, merely take the right foot off of the gas. There is no need to use the brake to slow down unless #1 is happening in front of you. Your foot does not have to be on a pedal at all times. 3. Unless you are planning on going at least 5 mph over the ...
