What a Day



It's amazing what 24 hours will do for your out look on life! Yesterday while I was frantically searching my studio for my embossing powder I pulled my center desk drawer and all of it's contents out on the floor! Originally it had been relatively organized...alas no more! The best I could do was pick it all up and throw it back in the baskets and stick it all back in the drawer...no time to re-organize...I had to go to work. Argggg! Last night when I got home from work...when I was much more calm of course I remembered where the embossing powder was....finally I was able to finish my layout this morning. It's a great picture of the four of us from last May.....I am so happy with it and a lot less stressed than I was 24 hours ago! Ah...what a difference a day makes!

A Magical Evening


Ok so this photo isn't from this evening....in fact much to the shock of my family I left the camera at home tonight when we ventured out to Disneyland to watch the fireworks. That's the beauty of having passes this year....we can go for just a couple of hours, have some fun and then come home. We had tried earlier in the week to go and see the fireworks but alas Disneyland isn't running on summertime hours anymore so the park was closed....I didn't even think to check until we were almost there...OOPS. Anyway we went over there tonight and arrived just in time to find a good spot to watch the amazing fireworks spectacular that Disneyland is known for. Normally I am not a huge fan of fireworks but between the music and the fireworks, tonight I was totally caught up in the whole thing it was definitely magical. After it was over we road Buzz Lightyear's Astro Blaster, had some yummy ice cream and then came home...it was a great family evening.

WOW.... Twice in one day!

Thanks to the wonderful Miss Holly I now have music on my blog....I totally jacked her play list...with her permission of course! ;) Thanks sweetie! So enjoy everyone.

What a Way to Start the Day

My computer went up in a puff of smoke this morning! I hope Cliff can fix it when he gets home! In the mean time I decided to get on his computer and do a little blog surfing.....and lo and behold I find a new blogger posting on my blog....I was thrilled to see a post by none other than Holly....Jeremy's amazing girlfriend! It was so cool to read her blog and see pictures of "our" missionary there. Some were new to me others I had seen before. Her blog looks amazing makes mine look rather sad....I think Holly needs to hook me up with her cousin that did it for her cuz she did an awesome job! I also totally love her play list....I just have to figure it all out and put one on here too! I think I would be totally happy with HER play list! She has lots of Rascal Flatts and Keith Urban on it.....I knew I liked this girl!

It's been a busy week....Jason's 16th birthday was Monday. We had a video game/Pizza party with a bunch of his friends all afternoon. It was lo key but really fun. I would post a picture or two but they are on my computer so that will have to wait....I am sure he won't mind....lol He started Seminary again on Tuesday. He is enjoying his new teacher but I am so not enjoying having to get up early....and then working til 9 most nights.....I guess I will eventually get use to it but at the moment I'm not doing very well.

We got a great email this week from Jeremy....ok so they are great every week cuz I love hearing from him but this week he told me he liked it when I sent him pictures of my scrap pages....does this boy know how to get to my heart or what? He is growing and learning so much. I learn from him with every letter....it's it amazing how you learn from your kids?
