The next playgroup will be at Mission Park at 11am.The weather is suppose to be great! I hope to see everyone there!

Cannon Hill Park

The next playgroup will be held at Cannon Hill Park at 11am. It is on 19th Ave. and Lincoln St. We will be meeting by the pond that is off Stevens St. I have not been to this park, but Tiffany said it is a great park.

Manito Park

Thanks for everyone who came to Pig Out in the Park! Next week (9/10/09) we plan to meet at Manito Park at 11am. We will be meeting on the north end of the park by the duck pond. Hope to see everyone there!

Pig Out in the Park

This Thursday (September 3rd) I was thinking we could go to Riverfront Park for Pig Out in the Park. We can meet there at Noon by the splash pad unless someone has a better meeting spot or time. I know we had some concerns about 10am being too early last week, and I don't know for sure what everyones nap time schedules are. Let me know if anyone would like to go.

Picnic at upper manito...

Hey all law school wives. I know things are starting to get hectic for the guys. I thought it would be fun whoever wants to get together and do lunch. I was thinking we could get out and enjoy the nice weather and do a picnic. The upper manito park it is a nice park and the kids could run around and play on the toys. It is nice because there are some little toys for the little kids and big toys for the big kids. The weather is supposed to be beautiful 68 degrees so it should be a nice day! Let's meet at 11:00 and bring a picnic. The upper manito park is different than the last time we met at manito. If you pass the main entrance to the park and continue south and turn right at the first light and continue a few blocks the park is on your right hand side. Leave a comment or call me if you need better directions.

Thought that you might be interested if you get bored...it's worth a shot :)

Disney Playhouse...

Chris and I were thinking of taking Kaden to the Disney playhouse show at the Spokane arena next Friday February 13th. It is at 6:00 PM. We were wondering if anyone else would be interested in going. More information about tickets, the show and pricing is avaliable here http://ticketswest.rdln.com/Artist.aspx?evt=65663 If you have a group of 10 people or more the prices are a little cheaper. So if anyone is interested or would like to go in a group let me know.

Jump & Bounce

I've been meaning to post about this for a while, but am now just getting around to it. In the same complex as my work office there's a place called Jump and Bounce. It's an indoor inflatable gym and party place for kids located in the Valley. I figured since it seems like this winter will never end (6 more weeks according to Phil!), this would be good for kids to get some of their energy out. Check it out!

Nativities From Around the World

Hey- on Monday (Dec. 8) some of us are getting together to go to the Nativities From Around the World exhibit at 3:30 p.m. We figured that husbands might not be able to come but bring them if you want!

Here's the info if you want to come. We'll meet at the church. Hope to see you there!

Holiday Events

I found a few holiday events going on here in Spokane and thought I would share. All the husbands are busy studying and it's nice to find free stuff to do.

Downtown by Riverfront Park offers free horse and carriage rides from 3-8 on the weekends. Click here for the details. There is also a free Christmas tree viewing at the Davenport Hotel starting Saturday.

Liberty Lake is having an event Dec 5th, 6th, 12th, and 19th with carriage rides (these ones cost $) and pictures with Santa for $1. The times are 5-8 pm and takes place at 22710 E. Country Vista Dr. (City Hall).

Also, one of the LDS stakes has a huge nativity display with over 700 nativities this weekend from Thursday the 4th through Monday the 8th. It is completely free and open to the public. Every evening there is a short concert at 7:00. The hours are 3-9 pm weekdays and 12-9 weekends...not sure about Sunday hours with church going on. The address is 1620 E. 29th Ave.

I am going to the nativity display and the pictures with Santa tomorrow if anyone else wants to come. If not, I'll have fun with my boys. I hope everyone is surviving this crazy week before finals!

Wingers free dinner!

So I called Wingers they are doing ladies night. To get the free dinner you have to print off the add under the events section on craig's list. She said that it gets pretty busy. So I was thinking we should probably be there at 8:30 so that those that are going to twilight can eat and get in line so they are there on time. Let me know if that works for everyone we can be flexible or change things if needed. The only thing I am unsure of is how late Wingers is open. Let me know what you think and if you plan on coming?

Thanksgiving 2008

Hello girls! So thanksgiving is just around the corner ( NEXT WEEK!) And I know there is alot of families staying here in Spokane for this fun Holiday.... And the wonderful Crandell family ( Shelci) has offered to have it at their home that afternoon. I've made a list of things that need to be brought.

Please let me or Shelci know as soon as possible to find out more details! My number is 360-608-6697. We would love to have lots of people there... However please just let me know so we can get everything organized.

Winger's

So I was on Craig's list event calender looking for things to do for date night and came across a ladies night at Winger's. It has a coupon to print off and every Thursday night the 6th-20th they are giving away free dinner for women. I don't know if this is for real but get on Craig's list and see what you think. If it is for real then we should go to dinner and then those interested could go see Twilight. Anyway I might call on this add so we don't show up all embarrassed but get on and see if you think this is a real add?

Twilight...The Book

So I told Dave how many of you were raving about this book at the recipe exchange at Tiffany's house and I told him I wanted to read it too. So he took me to the book store and bought it for me, wasn't that nice? Anyway, two days later I finished it. I have never ever read 500 pages in two days, not even for Harry Potter! It was a great page turner. The only problem is that my book had a sneak peek of book 2, (the first chapter) and I read it and now I'm sooo anxious for book 2!

I looked it up online and found that the author is a lot like us, and it surprised me. She had never written anything else before, except a few unfinished chapters for other things and she wrote with three young boys. In fact, she wrote Twilight while her baby was still not sleeping through the night, I can sympathize with that. So I thought that was neat to see. Her Story is interesting and inspiring, you can see it here http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/twilight.html

Anyway, Thanks for the recommendation. And I recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it yet. I can't wait for the movie! I can't go to the midnight viewing, cause of my baby not sleeping through the night. I don't want Dave to deal with that alone. But I wish I could be there!

Twilight

I know we've been thinking about going to the midnight showing of Twilight on the 20th, and just a head's up: Fandango has a option where you can get the ticket for free if you sign up for a free trial of some arbitrary product.  Just go to fandango.com and look up the show times for twilight on the 20th, and there should be a link that says, 'want a free ticket?' (or something like that). I guess the only question is, what theatre are we going to?
