Mothers Day & Anniversary


We have had lots of events to celebrate lately around here. Mother's Day was really nice. First because most of David's meetings were cancelled so he didn't have to leave so early and helped me get the kids breakfast and ready for church - I didn't know what to do with all the time. Then he got home only 30 minutes after me and made dinner and let me relax. The kids gave me fabulous gifts that they made at school. Jackson gave me a book from his year at preschool that had his handprint made for different season/holidays. Miles gave me a tile that he made a flower with his handprint and a book about me and him. You gotta love the things kids think - Question How tall are you Answer Miles 12 feet - Mom 55 feet tall. Question How much do you weigh Answer Miles 12 pounds - Mom 55 pounds (At least he is consistant) Question What do you like - Answer Miles to play with toys Mom - to wear shoes! It was a wonderful day!

We also celebrated our 8th anniversay on Monday the 12th. David so lovingly told his work he could not travel that day! He took me to Outback and stayed home and helped with the kids. I can't believe in 8 years what we have accomplished. Mostly that we have these three little people that we are responsible for and to see how much they have grown up.

Food Storage


Well my major project the last couple of weeks was food storage. I have really been working on this for the last year and I still am not even close. A year for a family is ALOT of food. I have been going to the cannery every 2-3 months but I had an opportunity to have the Stake Canner and I was able to do food you can't get at the Church's cannery. We canned 172 cans between Camille and myself! David even helped :) It feel good to be getting closer but I still have a long way to go between the time and cost of food who knows when I will get it all done!

This and That

Just some random pictures! ENJOY!

Pedicures

Well it is a first. David went and got a pedicure with me on Saturday night! I had a gift certificate and he reluctantly went! He finally decided it couldn't be all that bad getting your feet rubbed. One thing we did find out though is David has really ticklish feet. He would jerk is knee up when she would rub the bottoms and his toes. He got laughing and some ladies in the salon got a kick out of it! Before you all make fun of him picture this - sitting in a massage chair, reclined back, getting your feet rubbed watching the basketball game. He was in heaven! I wish I had a picture!
