IT'S THE WEEKEND!!

It has been a great weekend for our family. We haven't done anything too exciting to talk about, but here it is anyway...

This morning David reminded me that he had 2 softball games, a double header. I like David to play ball, but he already plays it twice a week with 2 different teams and this one today is the team that isn't good at all. And David is gone so much with work and has a lot of late nights, I look forward to the weekends! I of course asked if he had to go or if he could stay home. So later he told me he had canceled the game so that he could be home with us. I then felt somewhat guilty about it until I found out that there wasn't enough guys to make a team anyway. Yeah!! So David got to do my "honey do-list". He changed 5 underground sprinklers that were buried to deep (and about that many more to go). Now if you're feeling bad that David had to work on my list and not play ball-don't! He was more than happy to do it because he went golfing yesterday AND had a guys night out with his friends and watched "I am Legend". A good trade off I'd say!

I went out tonight with 2 of my friends in our ward. We went to Kneaders for dinner and then went to watch the 2nd Narnia movie. I loved it as much as I did the first one. It's a great one and a feel good movie!

I'm enjoying that Alyssa is getting older and can go to sleep with out me at night. I don't worry as much and David is a good sport about taking care of the kids also.

Thanks, honey for all you do for me!! (I think some times I'm too spoiled by him...but I like it!)

How close have you been to a Prophet?

David, and two other guys he works with, were invited to the Jazz game last Friday night. I have come to find out as a construction wife, to get business, you gotta play A LOT ! Here is a short list, not limited to, of what I mean by "play": Golfing (about 3 times a week-depending on the week and in warm weather of course) Snow skiing (about 2 times a week, again this depends on the week and when there's snow) Fancy dinners (this can also be counted as lunch, which happens more than I know I'm sure!) Executive Retreats (this will be happening in February for about 5 days in AZ, which will have all 5 days full of golfing, guaranteed!!) Jazz games (again, when in season) I don't know about you, but I think I'm in the wrong career!! This house wife things just does not include ANY of those benefits!! Anyway, on with the story at the Jazz game... These weren't just ordinary tickets. Where do executives and people in high places sit? Oh yeah, ...

Our New Family Pictures

I have been on the hunt for a really good photographer for a long time here and there.  And I think I found one that did everything I wanted.  First, she comes and looks at the feel of your home.  For us I just sent pictures of our living room where I wanted the pictures placed.  Then she suggests colors to wear and sent pictures back with our room and picture placements she puts on the walls.  And with 5 kids, especially Jenna, you really have to photo shop A LOT!!  Almost every photo with Jenna she had to photo shop.  She did amazing!!  I was so nervous when we went over and viewed our pictures at her house.  As David put it after our photo shoot “She has to be a magician to get anything good out of that!  That was a disaster!”  After looking at our proofs I said, “well, you are a magician!”  And David said after leaving and climbing in our car to go home “That was worth every penny.”  Success! I do have a few faces to...

Melanie’s Calling in Life

Image
Two Days ago Melanie was getting ready to go out the door.  She had her coat and was looking for her other jacket.  I asked her why she needed it when she already had her coat on.  She said she was going to take it to her friend at school, Humana, because she wears 3 jackets and doesn’t have a coat.  5 minutes later Melanie asked me “Mom, can we buy Humana a coat?”  I had already been thinking about that but told Melanie I would look while I was out to see if I could find one.  I went to 3 different stores to look!  Winter coats in that size are hard to find these days!  But I finally found something at Walmart and got gloves and a hat.  My friend, Angela, who drove carpool that morning called me while I was out looking.  She called worried because Melanie had said on the way to school that her friend didn’t have a coat and was sleeping on the floor.  I told her I knew about the coat and was getting one but Melanie hadn’t mentioned ...
