Today


I have one final week of summer.

However, most of the week will be taken up making final preparations for the school year to begin. At times I am giddy with excitement as I think about teaching. At other times I feel sheer panic. I’m sure the year will be full of both excitement and pure panic!

This summer has been full of fun and amazing experiences. The kids have been busy attending summer camps, band camps, orchestra, EFY, and youth conference. One of these days I will actually get the time to unload the pictures from the camera.

Today my Young Women spoke in sacrament. They are awesome, amazing, and totally the best!

It was  announced that next year the youth will be participating in Trek. Oh Boy! A week of living like a pioneer. Anyone got a bonnet I can borrow?

It is amazing how the months have passed in a heartbeat. Now football has started and the school year is moments away. This year is going to be an exciting one.

The kids are all registered for school. Junior High and High School fees were $550.00. Good thing we have “free” education.

Wish us luck!

I have not written on this blog for months. Blogher is cancelling my ads. This makes me kind of sad I have met a ton of people through Blogher. However, I really don’t blame them.

One of the reasons I haven’t written I hate the new blogger-editing layout. Hate is kind of a strong word but you know what I mean.

I love the scripture on my blog. I need to remember that a smile is worth a thousand words.


I need to go to bed.


Have an excellent night everyone.

Our Christmas Letter

Each year I send out a Christmas letter and the one thing that frustrates me more then anything about the letter is that I can not include all the pictures I would like. That and Brent's rule that the letter has to fit on one side of one paper. I have gotten pretty clever with font size and margins to keep this rule. All you that have read this blog know that I am a sucker for pictures. So this year along with mailing out the letters I am going to post the letter with pictures. YAY ! So fun having your own blog to torture people anyway you want. Our Christmas cards were sent out on Monday so here in all it's digital glory is the letter again, this time with pictures. (Beginning of Letter) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We hope that this letter finds you happy, healthy and enjoying the holiday season. If you are like us, it has been a little bit of a difficult year dealing with increasing prices and a budget that isn't quite stretching to meet every thing you want it to...

Fantasy Land

The writer of this blog is currently in fantasy land. Meaning there will be no post as she is to busy pretending that she is on the sunny, care free, warm beaches of Hawaii. Apparently she is also under the delusion she looks smoking hot in a bikini and can currently (in the world of fantasy) be found on the beaches of Oahu sporting a bikini top and a grass skirt. Further evidence of how deeply she has entered fantasy land includes some very cute natives making sure her umbrella drinks are full and sunblock applied. The only thing she would like to mention to those of you still dealing with the real world and the endless hours of kids and summer vacation. "The water here is perfect and the sunsets are to die for please feel free to join me."

Hip Hip Hurray, Tomorrow is PIE Day

Well in a little less then 24 hours I am going to have to reset this counter.  I can hardly believe that it says 30 days.  I have to tell you I never thought I would make it this many days I really thought I would have to reset it at some point in time. It has been a huge motivation for me knowing that you guys are watching the counter.  Also, knowing that even if you didn't catch me in the time allowed you would see that I punked.  That I didn't have the self control, not to eat sugar. Every time I would think of eating a goodie, I would think about reseting the clock.  I would wonder who was online, I would wonder if I would get caught, I would wonder who would catch me.  By the time I got through thinking about all of that I would decide the treat wasn't worth it. Another motivation has been my kids, who have said, "Mom you don't have to reset the counter no one would know."  I wanted them to see that  I could be honest and not do something I shouldn't ...
