Happy Monday & Happy 10 on 10!
It's the first 10 on 10 for the year 2011!

My morning coffee in my new *awesome* coffee mug that looks like a Canon lens. My mother in law gave it to me for Christmas! It trips me out drinking out of it because I keep thinking it is a lens!
Good morning! Ready for work!
The desk in my classroom, Hello Monday morning!
Lunch of Champions....Trader Joe's BBQ Chicken Salad is SO yummy!

On my way home from work (Don't worry, I was at a stop sign) It was 48 degrees at 1 pm.
Brrrr.....It has been SO cold the past few days.
(I am sure all of you who have real winter weather & snowy conditions are laughing at me right now)
We are wimpy Californians....we need warmer weather. We aren't used to this :)

While the girls napped, I was able to finish working on an order for my Etsy shop for Cowboy Invites & Cupcake Toppers. This is one of my favorite themes!

And, I cleaned the bathroom. Monday is my new cleaning bathroom day.
This scrubber is my no-sponge solution, since I am a sponge-a-phobe.
Which, by the way, I find comfort that I am not alone in my phobia. Thanks for all the comments & support :)

This scrubber brush worked GREAT! Totally recommend it!

Making dinner....Chicken Teriyaki Stir Fry! It smells AMAZING!

We are having an early dinner so we can watch the BCS National Championship!
We will be rooting for Oregon since they represent the West Coast. And, because it would be fun if a Pac-10 (soon to be Pac-12) team won. Plus, I have a ton of friends who went to Oregon.
And after the football game? The Bachelor, of course!

Hope you had a great 10th!

10 pictures on the 10th day of the month!

Claire learned a new trick, she can now climb onto the chairs of the kitchen table & sit like a "big girl" She is slightly obsessed with doing this now & doesnt want to sit in her high chair.
Kate having a temper tantrum before church because we cut her pancakes into squares instead of triangles. She was so ridiculous this morning & wouldn't cooperate. We were late for church (big surprise) but I was helping in her class this week & supposed to be there early. ugh.
Home from church, Claire begging us to let her play in the backyard.
Mid afternoon snack. The last of the Christmas candy....a box of See's Bordeaux.
At Chayse's Birthday party at the park, Claire LOVED this tunnel!
Kate was anti-social at the party & wanted to just play on the playground!
Cake time! Happy 5th Birthday, Chayse!
When we got home from the party, my in laws had dropped off the playhouse that they got the girls for Christmas. To recap, my mother in law got them this without asking us (because she knew we would say no) and we have been avoiding going to their house to pick it up. Wasn't that nice of them to bring it by & set it up for us when we were not home. (sarcasm)
After Claire went to bed, we played Candyland with Kate. It was her first time playing a board game. She LOVED it! (her day ended much better than it started)
Our dinner. I used my new cookbook & made the Pioneer Woman's Chicken Spaghetti & then served it with cornbread & whipped honey butter & a glass of wine, of course. Yum, yum, yum! All of it!
