THANKS MOM AND DAD!

Today I used my new KitchenAid that Mom and Dad gave me for Christmas for the first time. I made a batch of chocolate chip cookies to see how it would handle the load. I couldn't believe how easy it was! I'll never make them any other way. The cookie dough looked so good that I had to give it a try. It was fantastic. I needed a second opinion before I posted on my blog that I'd just made the world's best cookies in my new KitchenAid, so I found a volunteer to test them. I sweetened the deal a little bit and made an icecream sandwich with 2 of the cookies.
Keith gave the cookies two thumbs up.

Keith set up the TiVo this weekend. We completely love it. I love being able to watch my favorite shows anytime I want. We can do our own instant replay or pause the show if we need to. It's fantastic!

Here is our TiVo in its new home - in our new TV stand. (More pics to come soon of the furniture we bought this weekend. I'll show you everything once we have things set up and put together. It's all Ikea stuff, so it might take us a little while! :) )

Here's an example of what TiVo has saved for us so far. It's a funny mix of things. I'm going to go watch my newly saved episodes of Medium and What Not to Wear now.

Thanks again for the presents Mom and Dad! We love them!
