Stake Girls Activity Day Camp

Being in the Stake Primary presidency I get to help with the stake girls activity day camp. A lot of work and time went in to this day long event. 

Lindsey was asked to be one of the models with a few other girls to show the younger girls modest clothing that is also trendy. 

A summer outfit

Sunday outfit

School outfit. 
She did a great job. Lindsey enjoyed the time she got to spend with the other young women. I appreciate Lindsey's willingness to serve these young girls. She is an example to girls wether she knows it or not.

Building bird houses

All the girls in the gym for their etiquette dessert. 

Sister Montiereth was the speaker.

She taught them how to properly and politely eat their dessert. When and how to wipe their mouths with the napkin. 

Olivia and Emily. These girls are still attached at the hip. 

There were many classes. This obstacle course one was amazing. It helped the girls learn to use team work. Not one activity could be done alone. 

There were 6 classes all based off a characteristic in the Women's General Conference meeting by Sister Oscarson called "Certain Women" It turned out to be an amazing day! There was such good feedback. The spirit was felt in each class. Each teacher did a great job giving a spiritually uplifting lesson and tying it in to their activity. 

We ordered shirts for each girl. Pink for 8-9 year olds and teal for 10-11 year olds. Because this day went off so well we have now planned for next year to be two days long.

SURPISE!!!!

Yes, this is true. And yes....this will be our newest addition to the family. You think you're surprised! Just imagine how surprised I was! Big time let me tell you. And in case you are wondering, I am just starting my first week of month number five. Yes, I am in my second trimester already. Hard to believe it's really gone that fast. I haven't been sick at all. It's been very nice. I could easily not know that I was pregnant because I don't feel like I am. This explains why I haven't been sick. It's a boy. I wasn't sick with Aidan either. I kind of figured it was a boy and this morning confirmed that it was. Here's the little guy in action. , We got up a little after 6 a.m. and got ready to head to the hospital. My mom showed up at 6:45 to watch the other three at home for us. Thanks Mom! We got to the hospital and you know the rest of the story there...boy. :) Everything looks to be good from what we saw but someone else will look

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

The Past Week...

Image
This past week has been a pretty laid back one. I've been getting things done on my own schedule...whenever I feel like it. Haha! Took the boys to the library, I've been making time (a.k.a. not working) to read a book for my own enjoyment, planted some flowers, made a few trips to the park with the kids, done a bit of shopping (grocery shopping at Winco is a lot of work with just me and the boys and I really have to gear up for it.), and I have been playing Sorry and Hi Ho Cherry O with Aidan quite a bit. So I have been busy just not with the normal stuff that keeps me busy on a daily basis.  I love browsing Costco with Jaime and my kids in the evening of a week day. It's not very crowded then. If there's a fun movie on the TVs we like to stop and watch a little. We stopped to watch a bit of the Avenger's in 3D...hence Aidan's glasses. :) I spent a day at Mom's with the boys. It was fun to be there with her and visit and do stuff like we used t
