This week...


I just thought I would give you a run down on my week. Life is insane here. I find myself eating more doughnuts than I should and exercising less and less. But, I am serving. Serving in my ward, neighborhood, and my family. Serving brings blessings. Who needs a skinny butt when you can have blessings of hapiness. I always try to tell my kids, when you are having a hard day and feeling down on yourself, go serve someone else. That seems to be the solution to alot of selfish depression in my opinion. Jeff is taking Garrett to father and sons tonight. He has horrible back pain and is going to suffer through it and camp for the night. We are so glad we have a boy to take camping. The girls and I are off for a girls night. Dinner and bow making. Maybe a little Pride and Prejudice after.

Here is a poem:


When the day is long and hard

And life seems much too fast

Just remember all is well

You could be living in the past.

Good thing we arent on the trail

sleeping in a dirty shirt,

Bathing in the nearby stream

and Pooping in the dirt.

We could be eating flour and water

searching for buffalo chips

or praying we wont be scalped or

eaten by wild um..........


I dont know, you finish it.

I would love to hear your ideas.

Happy Anniversary!!!!


How do I love thee? Let me count the ways....

Tonight Jeff brought home flowers for me. I figured it was because I had been a little stressed out with work and kids and stuff. How nice, I thought, to bring me flowers for no reason. What a great hubby!

Then, Jeff sayes, "Happy Anniversary Honey". I thought, Oh MY GOSH!!! It is our anniversary tomorrow! I totally forgot. How sad, to forget the one most momentous occasion in our lives. The day we began this journey. Does that tell you how I can definately have too many irons in the fire. Such is my lot. I can't believe I forgot. Good thing he loves me. I would do it all over again. That's for sure.

Especially for the honeymoon......

Ok, things are fine.......

There is a strong possibility that I have over reacted just a bit. You know when you're angry and Satan makes everything a little worse than it should be, I guess I have a tendancy to freak out a little. Just ask my kids. There is nothing horrible going on. Just normal teenage and post-teen stupidity. Please don't call and ask whats going on. Im over it and I am most definately not angry at the Lord. Still strong in the gospel.
