Dad's 59th Birthday

 Aunt Sharri brought the kids a butterfly.  They could ether leave it at the grave or take it with them.  My two kids took theirs.



We let off our balloons and I got a picture this year.


Aunt Sharri gave me this rose and a sweet note that I didn't get a picture of before I thru it away.

Memorial Day 2015


 This year we got dad some sunflowers.


Mom brought some sidewalk chalk so the kids could wright dad a message.
















We didn't go to every grave that belongs to my family. We totally missed the Haslem side, and some of Randans family,  but I was limited on time, so we will have to make it up later.  After this I ran home, and started to prepare for a BBQ we at our house  with Randan's side and my side.  It was fun, and the food was good.
I am so grateful for the men and women that give there life for our freedom. 

Tucker's School Program



Love this face he figured out that I was taking picture's and gave me this face

Each child had a line to say.  Tucker's was he likes to build snowmen with his sister in the winter time.



His school dose a kindergarten program every year, and every year it's theme is the four seasons.  They practice songs all year, and then preform them in this program.  It is so fun to watch.  They do a slide show of every child's picture. It is fun to see all the kids that are around Tuck's age. 

Storm




This was a way cool storm that came thru about a month ago.  We have been very blessed this year and had some very wet storms.  This was one of the big one's.  We got hail form this one,  and a couple of others.  I was in side getting my kids breakfast and Randan called and told me to get my plants in the house that they might get ruined. I had just planted them a day or two before, and Randan was out on a run he was in the store when he called.  I just made it in time.  I thought it was very interesting how it was coming in.  I wish these pictures did it a little more justice.

Conglomeration

Just noticed I have no make-up on.  Don't look at that. Just concentrate on Reagan  and her steeling a lick while I am on the phone. My pinkie of the finger holding the cone is in my ear, because it was SO loud in the restaurant.  

I thought this was so cute.  The two of them were eating breakfast, and Tucker just so mater-of-factly stated: "Raegan I drew a picture if you and me at school."  He said that he liked to play with her, and then scooted over on the same stool that she was on, and gave her a hug. 
We got a new washer and dryer a few weeks ago.
 I have caught  Tucker doing this when he is home, and the washer is s going.  He will stay there for the hole load cycle. Not sure what interests him about this, but something  about it has grabbed him. 



My sweet sister-in-law and her family, gave to me for Christmas,  a few years ago,  a stand and address sign for our house.  I loved it because it fit my style.  The only thing is every time the wind comes up (witch is all the time lately) it gets nocked down and has broke it.  I came up with this idea when I was at our new Flee Market.  I found the old window and decided that it would be an awesome home address sign.  I found at Joann's some "window cling" that you can put through a cricket, but I don't have a cricket, so I decided to get it anyway, and see if I could use a stencil and e-acto knife.  Kind of like how it turned out.  The door hanging I made with stuff I had around the house.  I saw some similar ideas on Pinterest.  The ideas on Pinterest were cooler, but this will work for now.  Can't wait to plant flowers.

Hair Cut Reagan gave Her Self

I guess the title of this one speaks for it self.
Reagan was in the kitchen of my mom's house two weeks ago waiting for me to get done helping my mom with Facebook. I guess she was done waiting, got board, found some scissors on the table, and took to her own hair. I knew some thing was wrong because, I couldn't hear her, or she wasn't in the  room with me and mom. I walked out, and thought nothing was wrong seeing her playing with hair clips. But I looked at her face, and got this feeing that she knew she was in trouble, but I couldn't see that she had done anything wrong until I went to get her, so I could put her shoes on, and saw the hair on the ground.  My sister wear's  these hair pieces, and so I thought it might be from that, or maybe she had pulled the hair from the brush that was in a basket on the table, but after further inspection realized that it was "HER" hair.   I also found some in the family room by the couch.  I guess there was a part of me that knew it was inevitable, but hoped it would never happed.

2015 Regional Women's Conference


Wow I don't fell that I have earthly words to descried how awesome this was I am not sure why, but I was emotional just walking into the stake center.  All three of the speaker's were so awesome.  I know Paris because she is my cousins aunt.  I know Joleen, because I went to school with her, and I know Matt from KSL's Studio Five.  He is on that some times.
I walked a way crying and don't think I actually  stopped until Monday.
I also would like to report we are apart of a new ward, official last Sunday. Split Mountain Ward. No longer in Jensen ward. Jensen is the other ward down here. They did this because of all the growth we have had the last couple of years.  I have been very excited about this, and am excited to go to church this Sunday to see are new ward, and to meet new people.   What they did was split are old ward into two, and added a little from the west to both wards.  Are hole stake got a rerouted. We all meet together last Sunday.  We were busting at the seems. They sustained and gave thanks to the new and old bishoprics. I have never been apart of something like this is was awesome to watch, and it touched my soul. You could really feel the spirit.
