Peanut, Peanut Butter, and KELLEN!


The other day I was on the phone with my grandma. The kids were off doing their own thing. Half-way through the conversation I noticed that Kellen was being rather quiet. I was grateful for the momentary lack of screaming "gaga" (meaning dog) at the top of his lungs and continued to talk. Should I have checked on him?? YES! After I finished talking with my grandma I went to look for Kellen. I found him next to the pantry with a new jar of peanut butter, that he opened himself, all over the place. He had put his whole fist in the peanut butter jar and proceeded to put it on the refrigerator, his clothes, and then Katie. Ah, good times! I am still trying to figure out when Kellen learned how to get lids off of peanut butter jars. After we took some pictures he went straight into the bath :)

Okay, but after me....


Tonight Katie saw that I was tired and asked if I would like a massage. I was so excited, so of course I said yes. I moved so that she could give me a little massage. Then all of the sudden she lays down and says, "Okay, but after me." STINKER!!! She makes me laugh so hard everday.

Gordon B. Hinckley 1910-2008



We Thank Thee Oh God For Our Prophet!!

What more can I say about our Prophet other than he was amazing!! I will miss his humor and gentle guidance. President Hinckley and I even shared our birthday. I was able to meet him in person while attending Tommy's grandpas funeral. The spirit he brought was amazing and the story he told was hilarious.

Thank you President for leading our church in such a mircaculous way!!

God Be With You 'Til We Meet Again.

Katie's First Tithing



Today Katie decided that she was going to pay tithing. She took money out of her piggy bank and put the money into a decorative bag. She thinks that she gets to go to Heaven to drop it off. I am so proud of her for wanting to be righteous!!

I Think I Am CRAZY!

I just started the worst class of my life and it's only a 100 level BIO class. Because I took the class over 8 years ago I get the opportunity to take it over. Of course, I thought that because I have already taken it and my major at BYU had a lot to do with biology I would be fine. Oh, of course not! The teacher thinks this class is the only thing we are doing in life right now. So as of this time I am spending at least 6 to 7 hours a day (during nap time and at night) on this dang class. To make it worse the teacher would rather us search the WWW to find the answers to our questions rather than our text. Annoying!! So if anyone feels that they need someone to pray for please let it be me!!!!! I need it!!!! Luckily, my personal "heck" ends in eight weeks. I WILL be counting down!

Jury Duty

I am about ready to commit a felony just so I can avoid jury duty. So if anyone knows how to embezzle money, let me know,I am in! Okay, not really, but here's the sad story. Yesterday(Sunday)Kellen got pink eye. So my sister-in-law did not want to get it or her little guy to get it either. So Tommy had to stay home to watch Kellen (I took Katie to my mom's house for preschool at 7am). Guess what, this morning I woke up with pink eye. Love that! Not to mention the possible ear and sinus infection I have on top of that. So I go all the way down to Phoenix to find out they are prescreening for 3 week and 7 week trials. That felony charge was looking really good to me when they announced that! So I told the lady that I had pink eye and that I needed to go home. She had no problem with that and proceeded to sign me out. Her last words to me were, "You have been rescheduled for April 15th". OH yeah!!! Money embezzlement charge here I come!!!
