Match It Right: An Awesome Invention

So one of the most creative women I have ever met, "The Marble Lady" (www.themarblelady.com) has come up with a new invention. She is dear friend of mine so please check out her new product.

It is called Match it Right (get it... the box looks like a match box!). It is a color coordination kit that has 600 color swatches with a peek-a-boo hole to it is easy to hold it over an object and match the color. It includes the color wheel, a little notepad and pencil for writing down colors, and a tape measure. And believe it or not she worked her rear off getting everything American made! Some one said, "It is like having a teeny tiny interior designer in a box".
Now you can stop lugging around bulky items to match colors. It really is very clever. The website is http://www.matchitright.com/ and it is $19.95 with an introductory free shipping and handling. So check it out!

Heidi Time

So I been having some great Heidi time. Thanks to the help of Kyle and a few friends I was able to leave the kids and head to my mom's law school graduation. Yes, I am so proud of my mom. She is a BYU law school grad!

We like to think of her as Reese Witherspoon in "Legally Blonde". So many parallels: Her beautiful blonde hair, her killer "bend and snap", her crazy good legal jargon, studying on a treadmill, and yes, she has even been known to stop for a manicure in the middle of a very bad day! And as Reese would say, "We did it!"



I also got to go repelling, rock climbing and zip-lining with our Relief Society at church. I was kind of nervous at first, but after doing it a couple times it was so much fun. I was very impressed with all the ladies and their skills! I especially loved how we all looked in our harnesses. We were workin' it!
