Girls Night Out and Boys Night Out

I can’t believe I forgot to record this!  We had so much fun!  I promised the girls that during Christmas break we would go get a pedicure.  Well, we were completely bed ridden and confined to the house most of that break.  So it was postponed for a few weeks until we finally went.  It worked out perfect because the boys went to the Monster Truck’s with Dad while I took the girls out.  The boys’ first time to see it!  They really liked the crazy motorcycle riders that performed huge jumps in between the trucks smashing cars.  What a boy night heaven!!

The girls and I went to the beauty school in Provo called Marinello.  The girls absolutely LOVED it!  They could not get over how awesome it was!  Alyssa, especially was just “goo goo” over it all.  Have I mentioned she loves fashion and is always painting her nails?  Perfect for her!!  Melanie told the girl working on her “I am so glad that you speak english!  It is so much easier to understand you and talk to you!”  I about died!  She must have remembered the pedicures we did 2 years ago the day before Mother’s Day.  We went to a nail salon where it was all Asians speaking!  HA!  Melanie is a talker!  And she sat there and talked the whole time asking all sorts of questions!  Not even shy!  We did pedicures first then had manicures.  Alyssa’s beautician was the first one done so she braided Alyssa’s hair and moved on to Melanie and Jenna’s hair while they were finishing up.  The girls walked out feeling like princesses that just got pampered.  The best part of the deal was if you get a manicure and pedicure you got to pick out your own OPI nail polish.  So we all walked out with a free color!  We got black crackle, white crackle, pink and purple.  I love doing this stuff with my girls!

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 change up, little specks to take off, small touch ups before th

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,

TRIALS

We have been preparing for over 4 years for this trial. But nothing, no matter how much you knew it could and most likely would happen, can prepare you when your son's doctor tells you now is the time. "Your son needs open heart surgery." August 24th, 2005, Jason was born in Las Vegas, NV. He was perfect and healthy looking in every way. At his 2 week check up the doctor heard a heart murmur and recommended I take him to the cardiologist. I mentioned that I was flying out to WA in a few days and so I'd probably go when I got back, 3 weeks later. The cardiologist doctor called me the next day after visiting with the pediatrician, asking me to go in to have Jason checked out. It was late and he was willing to stay after hours for us to get there. After an ultra sound of his heart (echo) the cardiologist diagnosed Jason with a very small hole in his heart. Nothing that needed to be fixed right away, unless it started causing problems. So Jason started going every 3 month
