My Hero


I Really love my Mom. She is my lifesaver almost daily. She is always there for me. I know she is close to my Heavenly Father because she always know when I need her and what to say. This past year has been really hard for me and every time I turn around she is telling me it will be ok, or helping me with my kids. You name it she is there. I often wonder why I got sent down to such a special family with a wonderful Mom. I hope I can learn to be as good as a mom as she is.
So the Saturday night she asked all of us girls to go with her to Women's Conference. I'm very grateful that she did. I loved spending time with her and my little sisters ( I missed Jessica- it's not the same without her). But I needed the talks that the sisters shared in Conference . I felt the spirit so strong. I loved that President Uchtdorf reminded me that I do have talents. I know that sometimes I think that I'm not very talented compared to my family and friends. I left that night with new goals and felt better about myself.
I thankful to my Heavenly Father for my HERO MY MOM!

My Dancing B Monster


I was out buying stuff for our wards Ghouls Night Out. My kids were done by the 4th store. So I told them we would go to the dollar store and get a toy if they stayed with me and didn't touch anything. Well at the $1 store the boys got guns and Brooklynn got shoes, skirt, and wings. When we got home she but them on and started dancing. It was so cute! What a girl. When she does cute things like that how could I call her my little B Monster?

I've been Tagged by Aimee Stevenson

The Rules:-Link the Person who Tagged you- Mention rules on your blog- Tell about 6 quirks of yours- Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same- Leave a comment to let them know.

Quirk #1 - I hate stickers! I have a hard time buying new clothing because they have the inspected by sticker in them. I have to check them 4 or 5 times before I wear them. Same with my kids clothing. I also hate when my kids teachers send sticker home with them. I know I need to get over that one.

Quirk #2-I have a gazillion (well, almost) pairs of shoes in my closet, yet I always find myself wearing the same few pairs over and over.

Quirk #3- I can never do anything simple. I have to go the extra mile which is a huge STRESS in my life.

Quirk #4- I can't go a week without talking to my Mom or Sisters at least once. I must know what is going on with them. I have to visit my parents at least once a week most of the time more then that!

Quirk #5- I am a total worrywart. Danny thinks that I just need to relax and let things go. I worry about everything. Stupid things like a snake being in my bed.

Quirk #6- I have to take a bath at night and morning because when you sleep you sweat. Danny thinks I have a lot of Monk in me. ( You have to watch the TV show Monk to understand that.)

Now I'm going to tag the few people I know that blog- Mom, Mackenzie, Loralee, Kim, Cindy, and Jessica. I think that is everyone that I know that blogs!

Mommy is Sick

So over the weekend I was sick with the stomach flu- Danny had kid duty. I walked out on them playing-I'm not sure what they were playing put they we laughing like crazy. They had pillow cases on there heads and chasing each other. I was worried they would run into a wall. Danny told me not to worry they could see. I think they were ghost! It was funny watching Danny try to entertain the kids. What A great DAD!

Trying to Cook!

So anyone that really knows me knows that I don't COOK! My poor husband and children need me to learn how. So the other night I was trying to make meatballs for dinner because Danny said he wanted them with spaghetti. I thought how hard could they be. So I started making them and Jadan said Mom I'll help you make them be yummy. So I helped him wash his hands and he helped me mix. Danny said we need a picture of this Mommy is cooking guys. Well he grabbed the camera I thought it was a cut picture of Jadan helping me cook. Did the meatballs work out????? NO! I think I know what I did wrong I'll have to try again some other time.

Rain, Rain, Rain!

It was raining yesterday. I really love the rain. I walked into the front room and found my kids watching the rain. It was so cute so I snapped a picture of them. When they saw me with the camera they told me they wanted something to do.

So we played a game-then I thought lets go puddle hopping!

This is my kids puddle hopping-I joined in of course-I'm sure my neighbourhood thought I was crazy.


Brooklynn was not sure if she liked being wet

When it was time to go in a rainbow appeared


The kids showing me how wet they got!


What a fun time we had playing in the rain!
