Almost There...

Yesterday, Rick decided that it was time for Evelyn to learn how to ride a bike, so he took her training wheels off. When I told Kimberly this, she said, "Oh no!" For those of you that know me well, you know that bikes and I are on a strictly need to know basis. It was probably good I wasn't here when this was all taking place. Evelyn has some of my fear and is just a little bit (ha, ha) of a drama queen. That being said, she did GREAT! She is so close, it won't be long and she will be riding circles around us.

Cool Give Away...

One of the blogs I go to is have a really cool give away.  I am sharing for all to see so I can be entered to win.

New Toy....

I have a new toy... and I love it!  It's the Xyron 900.  It laminates and puts permanent or removable adhesive on things, depending on the cartridge you put in.  It's very easy to use and doesn't need batteries or electricity.  Even a 2 year old can work it ....whole other story.  I've been going a little crazy laminating things.  I can't help myself!

Happy Birthday Sammy Boy!

Sam's birthday was on Monday, so sad that I couldn't even get these pictures up then.  We had a party for him on Saturday.  Most of my family was in town, it was grand fun!

Sisters, sisters...

There were never such devoted sisters... Last night at our Weeknight Meeting, (that sounds so weird, why couldn't they just keep the name the same?) I had the opportunity (whole other story) to speak to the sisters of our ward about sisters and sisterhood. I spoke about my sister (she is just finding this out). I am grateful for her example of strength and courage. I am grateful for a mother that encouraged us (sometimes by force) to be good friends.

Ring Around the Rosie...

This has become Max's favorite song to sing. All day, every day. Enjoy!



I have the feeling a couple of his uncle's are going to get a big kick out of this.

Happy Birthday Nana!

You are never far from my thoughts and I'm very grateful for the reminders I have of you. I still have your phone number programed into my phone, I can't seem to let that one go. I guess it makes me feel better, somehow.



Happy Birthday Nana!

Paper Doll...

I saw got this link for paper dolls from Chocolate on My Cranium. Evelyn has already cut out several of them. She thought she was suppose to glue the clothes on. Poor girl has such a pathetic mother that has never shown her what to do with paper dolls. She knows now and loves them!
