Craft Day...

Please notice how prompt I am posting this new BLOG... I think I might be getting the hang of it! Memorial day was a great day for me and the girls (some guys were there too) to have another fun crafting (and eating) day. You can see we had a sparkling time making firecrackers for the 4th of July! Mike spent the weekend painting (and helping us with our crafting needs) and making our home beautiful! It was a great weekend!

We're back...

Mike & I are back from our little trip to Nashville/Kentucky. We went to help Aimee with some handyman projects... and of course we had the handiest man of all to do the work... Mike! It was fun and we got a lot done. Their house is cute and surrounded by green... REAL green... not the fake gray brown green found in Arizona! AND of course it was great to see Joslyn and Lexy be as cute as ever!

Now... get out the Kleenex.... Mike and I gave OUR moms a Mother's Day present ... We took Brandon and Trent with us and we did the baptisms for both of our parents and other relatives. It was a very special experience and we are excited to do the next ordinances and to prepare more family names. So a very special Happy Mother's day to Doris and Eleanor!

Well, May was just ANOTHER GREAT month in our family. Now it's off to Nashville tomorrow to see the fam! Life is good!

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
