Salsa fiend


Tyler LOVES salsa and chips. As long as it's not "picey". He will ask to eat it almost everyday. 

And some days he will get it out and pour some himself. As you can see it flowed over his bowl. 

One Sunday evening we busted out Life to teach the kids how to play. They really enjoyed it. They liked getting married and getting gifts for having kids.

The boys ask to play it almost every day now. It's too bad it's such a long game. I'm sure when they can read we will play it more.

Another school day! These beauties of mine love to socialize. They have fun getting together with friends at school and can hardly wait to get homework and other things done so they can go out and play with more friends! Last night I let the girls play outside till 8 with Miah, Ashley, Sophie, and Emily. They were shocked! They were playing so well I and getting lots of exercise I didn't want to end it too early! Course they still weren't ready to end the fun when I said so at 8!

It's a new season and time for me to think of more of my many blessings! I love my family and our ward and neighborhood. I honestly couldn't have planned this chapter in our life better if I wanted to!!

Also, Jaime was offered two new jobs last month! He could have turned them down (one was another district position dealing with technology) but after praying and weighing pros and cons he decided to take the principal position at a new school being built a few blocks away from our development! No more 15 minute commute, hello to walking or biking on days he can!! Congrats Jaime. You've certainly won your way into the hearts of the PSD. Keep up the good work!!

Living Life Day to Day

My kids are wonderful. They are growing up into wonderful children. I love them so much. We've been very busy with this and that recently. This will be a long recap of some of what's been going on. :) The Primary Program was Sunday Sept 22. (I forgot to get a picture of them on that day but I did get pics of them the previous Sunday.) All four of them memorized their parts and stood at the microphone to say them without any hesitation at all. They were cute to watch singing the songs. Aidan was funny to watch with his gestures and making a heart with his hands through some of the songs. My parents and grandparents were able to come and watch. It was a special treat for the kids to have them there.  The Sunday this picture was taken there were hundreds of yellow butterflies all over the purple flowering bushes. It's hard to see them but on the left you can see one up close.  Tyler had his first talk in primary the Sunday after the program. He stood up to the mi...

Tolo

The end of January Olivia asked her friend Jonas to Tolo. He had an arm in a sling for the same injury as Olivia. However his was worse and needed surgery. I thought her way of asking was clever and cute.  The night before Tolo the girls got together for a Galentine's night of food, pampering and prepping for the dance with facials, and watching a movie.  They had quite the spread! Time for facials! I love this picture of Brynnlee, Olivia, and Makeda busting up laughing. Knowing your kids have good friends is a wonderful thing.  They watched Pride and Prejudice.  Ready for Tolo! Cute cute! The group went to downtown Richland to get some Urban like pictures.  Well Jonas said something funny! They both have their slings off but they felt the handicap sign was appropriate for them. 😂 What a group of girls. Glad they have fun together.  I love the lights! After pictures they went for dinner.  They had a lovely spread of street tacos at a friend's house. A...

THREE Years?!?!?!

On Wednesday September 3rd, 2008 I was at my Mom's house. I started having small contractions that kept getting more frequent. When I would be talking to my mom and have to stop just to breathe we decided that I was in labor and would probably be going to the hospital that night rather than the next morning for my scheduled induction. We had dinner there and after dinner I told Jaime to go ahead and go to mutual as he was in the Young Men's presidency. I wasn't in enough pain and didn't want to go to the hospital too early. Lindsey and Olivia would stay the night since they were going to anyway so Jaime and I could just get up Thursday morning and head to the hospital to be induced into labor. We got the girls in to bed and I said good bye. My brother Darin was home and he drove me to the hospital at 8:30 p.m. I sent Jaime a message I was going and he and my dad (our ward's bishop) would meet me there. I got checked in by 9 p.m. and the nurse checked me and said I...
