I have a wonderful boss. Not only is he my boss but he is a very good friend. Always there when you need him. He is willing to listen and give advice!
The best thing of all is every 2 weeks he signs my paycheck!

I did not take these pictures today but shhhhhh don't tell. Yesterday while playing some kind of football game in gym Jake crash landed with the gym floor hitting his knee. Well he is in a straight leg brace and on crutches for a couple of weeks, but as Jake said "hey we won the game" I guess that is what matters but then again what do I know I am just a mom.

I am so proud of Jake and all he does.. most of all how many 17 years do you know that are not embarrassed to hug their mom? Jake tells me everyday he loves me even in front of his friends!

My new hobby (if I ever get it downloaded).
I decided a month ago that I was going to learn how to scrapbook. So I bought the software but have been entirely too busy to download it. One day soon I hope my life will slow down a tad so I can start this new hobby!

I know I already posted for today but I was inspired to post again.
This morning when we woke up I realized that our church was starting in 10 minutes and knew there was no way to get all of us up, showered and out the door in time to go to church. So we went to our old ward ( which starts at 1). We must have been meant to be there today. My we sang some of my favorite hymns and what the speakers said really hit me hard.
The youth speaker spoke about 3 things we need to do every day.
1. Read the scriptures daily and do not concentrate on the length you read but the amount of time you read.
2. Pray as many times daily as you can.
3. Smile even if you are having a bad day if you smile it will make you happy.
Another thing I took from one of the speakers is make sure you not only listen to the spirit but listen for it. We get so busy in our lives that sometimes we miss hearing the things we really need to hear!!!
I want to thank a couple of GREAT friends that have helped me to see the light, if it was not for them I am not sure were I would be today. I know where I need to be and what I need to work on in my life.
This could go on forever but I will stop here. Thanks for reading!!!!

This is a picture from our front porch. It has been raining since yesterday which has been a good thing because it has cleared out the inversion and we can see to the end of the street and better yet BREATHE with out choking!

This may seem like a strange picture but there is a reason. My nephew Mason turns 5 on Monday. To make a long story short this is pay back to my little brother. When our kids were younger he would buy the NOISIEST or MESSIEST toys he could find. So now that he has kids we do the same to him. PAY BACKS!!!!!!!!!!!
However I am the bestest Aunt in the world!!!

Jeff and I had the opportunity to chaperon the JROTC dinner dance on 01/09/2009.
(Jeff always has to pull a face)



This is Jake and I he is all decked out to do the color guard!
(am I a proud mama or what?)

So sweet

I took this picture of Lindsee this morning while she was asleep. She has been sick so sleep is good for her.
I love to watch the kids sleep they look so sweet!

Clifford dog...

This is my Clifford dog. He is so funny every time we give him a rawhide chew he holds it in his mouth like a cigar.

Why is it....

That as soon as I get my sink to look like this this


It look like this again?

Something fun..

I got this idea from a good friend and his family.
Every day for the entire year I am going to post something there may or may not be a picture but I will post something! I have missed some days and I probably will not catch them up so I will not have quite 365 posts.. well maybe I will.
