We Have a Winner!!

Thank you all for voting! It helped us out a lot! We started out with 400 pics, and so finding just one was quite a task, so thank you all for your votes!

HELP!!

Hope has to decide which of her senior pictures she wants in the year book. We have narrowed them down to 3 choices and would like you all to vote for your favorite, and the one with the most votes will be the one that we choose! They aren't in any particular order. Thank you all so much for the help! :)

It was the worst of times, it was the best of times

What does my title have to do with ET? Well on Sunday I was wishing for ET to touch my back and heal me.

I bent over to pick up a towel and my back decided that was it. I couldn't stand, sit or move all day long. It was very painful and it still is.

This is the worst of times.

Enter the best of times (well I should say better times). I went to a massage therapist today, can I just say AAAAHHHHHH! It was amazing! I went not really sure what to expect, not sure if anything could help me. So I went, I was massaged, I feel a lot better.

The End

Flashback Friday

I was looking through some stuff I have been carting all over, and I came across a book from an old ward we were in. I got a kick out of looking back and thought you might also. This one is for a certain friend that I have had forever, I thought you might like this one :)

What's been going on

I have been a little slow on blogging lately. So I am going to let you all know what has been happening. The number one thing that has slowed me down is the fact that we just moved, the slow economy has taken a toll. I will e-mail my new address to ya all later.

Hope went to Homecoming this year. She went with some friends and so it was a lot of fun for her. I think her dress is way cute!

The weekend after Homecoming was Halloween. This year we didn't go trick or treating! Tayler and Emma were invited to a party so it ended up being a very low key Halloween for us.

Emma won the funniest costume prize! Tayler won the best costume! They had a really good time.

On November first Dallin H. Oaks and Marcos A. Aidukaitis came to our area and had a special fireside for four stakes in our area. There were 971 YM/YW at this fireside. They didn't prepare anything they had the kids write down questions and then they answered them for them. Hope, Jackie and Tayler all came home very excited about what they heard and were happy they went. I am going to encourage them to write or blog about what they heard. Today in church the sacrament meeting was three of the youth that went and our Stake YW Pres. talking about what they heard and what they took away from the fireside.

President Oaks said that he had been talking to his Granddaughter about a young man and he said that he loves the youth today, he doesn't always understand them but he loves them. Example his granddaughter told him that who ever she likes has to be hot, and they kept talking and then she said that he also has to be cool, President Oaks said something along the lines, it doesn't matter if they are hot or cold, just don't be stupid. One of the youth said they loved the fact that an apostle told them to not be stupid. It was a great opportunity for our kids. I was only sad that they requested that the parents and youth leaders not go so that they would for sure have room for all the youth.

I voted this week. The outcome of the vote has consumed me this past week. Enough said.
