Saturday, October 6, 2012. We had to wait a little while before the bishop got there so we decided to take the pictures first. Ah, the joys of getting a bunch of people together for a picture.

And then try some out. for MAX! March 28, 2018. Or any other fancier occasion.

Thursday, August 6, 2015. On my birthday I had this strong impression of a request to make of my father. I knew he would have no clue it was my birthday. He was teasing and laughed after. I assured him he could take it in whatever light he wanted but I did have a request. Then I told Papa it was my birthday.

Thursday, June 26, 2014. The Good Old Summer Time. Monday, June 17, 2013. Do you remember when you learned to ride a bike? It was probably one of the first things I taught myself how to do. I nailed it and was in bike heaven. Oh man was he excited to show me his new trick. When he was ready, he went for it and let go of the things that were holding him back. He still fell a few times, once pretty badly. But he got back up and flew down the road over and over. When will I have the courage to let them go? .

Tuesday, April 1, 2014. I know it has been a long time since I posted. Things have been really crazy this year. School has been fun and exciting. There is always something new to keep me on my toes. We are on the downward slide for the school year. We have about 40 some days left. The boys had their Blue and Gold Banquet a few weeks ago. Andrew earned his Wolf badge and Jonathan earned his Weblos badge. They both really enjoy scouting.

Wednesday, January 20, 2010. We headed home and saw Ikea. Thought this would be a good place for the kids to play. Nick is now too tall and Kate is still in diapers. So much for free 1 hour childcare. I used the bathroom and saw the calender on the inside of the stall door.
