We got Kray an army outfit for his birthday.
For Krays birthday we went bowling with our neighboors. We were going to go to the beach but the weather said that is was going to be raining. Kray was sad that we weren't going so my wonderful neighboors agreed to bo bowling with us. Sara had a cake that Nathan had baked for them. She decorated it and dontated it to the party . I think it turned our great and every one had a great time.

My Dress



My friend Tricia and I made this dress for Spencers graduation ball. We don't know when the ball is but Tricia has moved and so we had to get it finished. We worked hard and our very happy with the finished project.

This is the back of my dress as you can see I need to finish the tie. But since I have a few months I'm sure it will get done.

Nephite Coustmes





The boys wanted Nephite costumes so they could act out Book Of Mormon stories for Family Home Evening this is what we came up. They have had so much fun playing with them. I love that they want to share their testimonies and enjoy the Book of Mormon so much.

Gratitude

I just finished reading a great book (Twisted Creek) by Jodi Thomas. It was about this community of misfits who all ate alone but soon came to learn the importance of true friendship but it was there all along. As I finished the book I cam to realize that I have been takeing granted of my best blessings. My family and friends. I have been to quick to get upset and to slow to love them. I hope that in the futuer I will do better and they will know that they are the most important things in my life.
Tonight I was upset that Dillon and Kray wanted to wear their uniforms to practice instead of staying in the clothes they had on. Did it matter no. Joe forget to wear shoes or choose not to I had him sit in the car until he would wear Krays sandles that where too big and walk over by me. He finnally did it and then do you know what happened he took them off and played in the dirt with Christina. He is such a good big brother and I should have know that he was going to take them off and play in the dirt.
You know one of the great things about living day after day is that I get a chance to do better tomorrow. I can hug them a little longer read more books. I can't wait tell in the morning when I can tell them that I love them in deed and with my words. They are truley one of the my greatest blessings. I can live my life everyday to show them how special they are.

Easter







Sara and Leah and their families came over and we rolled Easter eggs down the hill in my back yard. Everyone had a great time. The kids love to roll everything down the hill including themselves.
