In Loving Memory

 President Gordon B. Hinckley, who led The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints through twelve years of global expansion, has died at the age of 97.  He will be missed, he was greatly honored and loved.

It’s Shocking!!!!!!!!!

For some reason up here there is so much static electricity! Everytime you get dressed, undressed or walk across the room you get SHOCKED!!! Let me tell you changing the kids is not easy-everytime I help Sophia get dressed I shock her! She gets so mad at me-I try to explain but she doesn’t believe me!

House offer-take 2

Well last week we made an offer on a house here. It’s huge and has a great yard-the best thing is it is way,way, way cheaper then the other houses on the market up here because it is bank owned. Our first offer was rejected along with 2 others so last night before pizza and birthday cake we made another offer. I am praying it goes thru it would be so great for our family. It needs work but we would be in a great equity situation. So I ask for your prayers for this and that we will be able to sell our house in LA soon. The market is picking up there due to troops coming in. So I would appreciate all the prayers you can muster-I know Heavenly Father is probably sick of me-:)

Who knew it was possible to be this cold?

Ok-granted this is coming from a girl who never wears socks and a coat what is that? The only way I can actually get my whole body warm-toes included is to get in the shower as hot as I can stand it. Now this is not very practical when you figure out with 4 kids and a house to take care of I am lucky if I get one a day-So just a note to Jack Frost-LEAVE MY TOES ALONE!!!!!!
