Cody and Shellie

Shellie is counting down the days till 2/27. The Mannion Middle School Multi Cultural Club that she is part of, is going to LA to visit the Museum of Tolerance and Disneyland. She leaves at 2am Friday and gets back 4am Saturday. Are 12 yr olds old enough to roam around Disney in groups of 4 unchaperoned? I guess so. Plan on me being a nervous wreck on 2/27!
Cody is smarter this week than he was last week. Against his will, he suffered through 2 afternoons of smartness at Foothill. I signed him up for a SAT seminar that preps him for his SATs and promises to increase his scores. They did mock tests first and then did the seminar and took mock tests again. Needless to say, he did much better at the end of each afternoon. Yahoo-I didn't waste my money!

Texas de Brazil


Just had our Valentines Dinner- our night out without the kids that just about comes along each year as often as Valentines Day! Mike and I enjoyed a wonderful dinner of meat meat meat. Yes I said meat 3 times. Texas de Brazil. http://www.texasdebrazil.com/ It is a never ending meat fest. Like a meat buffet without leaving your seat! With a pretty exotic salad bar too. It is a Brazilian steakhouse much like Rodizo's at Ft Union in SLC for those of you Utahns who read this. Probably more than most would spend on a dinner except for Valentines, Anniversary, etc. But I am confident I watched Mike eat at least his $45 in meat and lobster bisque. And I am sure I would have paid close to $45 for the Triple Chocolate Mousse Cake I saved room for! To say the least, I would recommend it to those who like hot sizzling meat straight from the grill brought to your table and carved/sliced/skewered right on to your plate every 3 minutes!
