Hannah turned 3!!!


 Had to put this picture in of Elijah, he was so proud of the Starfish he made at school.
 I know this is late, sorry.  Wow time flies.  Can't believe she is 3 already.  Well this year she wanted a lady bug cake, so that is what I did. 





She got several fun things this year.  A tinker bell costume from Grandma and Grandpa Haley, a dress and doll from Grandma and Grandpa Watson, and a bike from Adam, Elijah, and I.  We had some cousins over for Ice Cream and Cake.

Here we go again :)

Well once again I have been called as the secretary in the Relief Society Presidency.  I guess this goes to say that really spelling and grammar don't really matter.  If it did they would definitely not be calling me.  It made feel really weird the first time I got called because, well the President and one of the counselors were my Young Women leaders.  So when when I got asked a week ago I was OK with it.  I had done this before I can do it again.  Then I started getting nervous, not because I don't like the ladies in the Presidency, but because I didn't know them well and they don't know me.  Seeing that it is a different ward and each presidency works differently.  Then their is the fact that in the ward I was in in Young women's knew me they new that I had once been I little out going and well they knew me before I had the beginning issues with Min-ear's.  There is nothing like knocking your head hard enough because you get so dissy you fall and that it changes the way you talk, and how to put words together in the right way.  Not that I was good at it before mind ya.  That and that my hearing has gone done hill.  I was hoping that it wouldn't get worse but I guess I should be grateful that I still have as much as I do, and trust me I am.  But these ladies now didn't know me before.  I know it sounds dumb when I am saying but, it did get me very nervous.  Well tonight we had our first meeting.  Not to bad and definitely some things that will be very different then last time I served but I don't think I am going to have a heart attack now.   Thanks for letting me vent.

General Conference and Easter

So first off, I have another picture to share that just turned out perfect.  I took this when we were almost home from Wyoming.  I don't remember exactly were, but it sure is beautiful.  Sorry about the water mark, but I have had people take claim to some of my photo's.
 So a couple days before Conference Weekend my brother Andrew was planning a trip up to Wyoming to visit my parents, and it happened that my Brother Zach and his family were headed up the same weekend.  Well I wasn't planning on going, but I got a phone call from Adam saying that he wasn't going to be home for the weekend.  So, I quickly called Andrew and he hadn't left yet, so I quickly packed in an hour and the kids and I headed up north with Andrew.  The first night we stayed with my sister Ruth and the kids got to visit with cousins.  The next day we headed off to Wyoming.  The kids did really well once again.  After we got to Rock Springs Grandpa took us to the park.  Grandpa was excited to show the kids the plane and the tank, the kids that it was cool for a minute and then what they really wanted was to go play on the play set.  You'd think they had been in the car for 4 hours. 









 OK, Let me explain this picture.  Elijah had just gone down the slide.  A minute later we walks over to me says "Mom, my butt hurts" and then he bends over.  Did he really think I was going to kiss is Butt better.  I looked at him and said "and what you want me to do about it"  he just smiles and then runs off playing again.  Boy, is boy or what. 
 We were getting things ready for bed and realized that the mattress that my parents just bought didn't have a pump.  So my Dad started blowing it by him self.  After he started turned bright red I took it away from him, folded it up and then my brother just plopped down on it.  Didn't turn out the way he thought it would, as you can see.
 So, take a really close look at this picture.  OK, notice any thing funny about this picture.  OK, it was probably just me.  After the guys got home from Priesthood meeting we were playing a game and I looked up and it just dawns on me that all the guys had undone their ties to the same length. 
 This is the first time that any of my kids have ever gotten out of their cloths while they were asleep. 
 My nephew Dante.  Yes he has curlers in his hair.  If I am correct he asked for them when he follow Grandma to the back Bathroom. 
 At the College that mt Mom works at they have a little tour of Dinosaur exhibits.  I hadn't noticed the picture I took until today when I download it to the computer.  When I saw Elijah's stance, I about died.  This is so not him when it come to getting pictures of him.  The following picture is more like the usual.  Unless uprising him. 

 Dante wearing Uncle Andrew's hat.
 The other night come home from a church activity we saw these Deer just to the side of the road on Midvalley rd.  There were about a dozen of them. 
 Decorating Easter eggs.  The kids had fun decorating and listening to Adam tell them why we celebrate it. 


 Elijah decorated one of his eggs with a picture of Jesus.
