Finally got Valentines decor up. I added one this year. I wanted to have a whole bunch of images of us (my fam) loving on eachother. I wasn’t really sure where I was going with it when I started. It kind of just evolved to this. I didn’t want to buy anything new (trying to...

Today I am thankful for
Freedom… hope it lasts.
Photography tips
I have had many people ask me for lessons in photography or to offer a class. I have to stick to my guns and not start getting myself too busy again, but I have to say the idea is inticing. I would love to do that. When I think of it my mind starts doing...
Rock the boat (i know… clever).
The other day when it was raining, Rocky was across the street playing with two neighbor boys (both quite a bit older then him). They had made sail boats and were having boat races down the gutter. He was really frustrated because he wanted a boat too. It was almost dark and time for dinner...
Ideas for Valentines day decor
Valentines Day is tricky for me. There is a very small window (in my opinion) to decorate. Don’t get me wrong, when I finally do decide it is time- I love it. I always feel like after Christmas I need a breather from the clutter. I always seem to go through closets and cupboards and...
Phone Manners
I overheard Griffin, my oldest, on the phone the other day and he said, “well, uuuuuh, ok then, uuuuhh, ok ya by.”
Hmmm…. Time for a phone manners lesson. Durring dinner I told the kids that we are going to roll play. I’m one of their friends dads and they are calling to see if “Joey”...
I couldn’t believe I was pregnant when I had a 4 month old baby.
Now I am so thankful. I love it that my two youngest are 13 months apart. They are really close - best friends. My daughter takes really good care of him (as if she is much older). I love their little conversations and listening to her teach him things. Sometimes it is hard because she...
I am thankful for love at home
Disclaimer. My son is not perfect. Ok, with that out of the way I must say that I think he is really cool.
I had a great big brother. He was really nice to me and not like a typical big brother. However, I don’t think he would have ever let me hang with his friends...
I love Family Night.
Every Monday Night is “Family Night”. We turn off the TV, phones, and ipods. We say prayers, sing songs, play games, have a lesson (usually a scripture story), and a treat (everyone’s favorite part). Once in a while we have family council if something needs to be discussed, but usually it is fun. Our kids...
I am thankful for Spinatos Pizza
we eat at Spinatos at least twice a month. Can’t get enough. THe best pizza you’ll ever eat, and if you go, you have to get the garlic cheese bread. You’ll be hooked too. We went tonight with some good friends and had good laughs too. I know it’s nothing profound, but it is special...
