If you want something to last forever, you treat it differently, it becomes special because you have made it so.

No comment...

Well, I first want to say, I have the sweetest husband! Saturday, I was completely down for the count, with the flu. It was horrible. My bones ached, and lets just say the toilet bowl was my best friend. Well Brad, watched Lily, Cleaned the house, did all the laundry, and took care of me. He is soo great! I LOVE HIM!! Anyway so yesterday i was afraid to use my toothbrush because of what disease i might catch... so i decided to boil mine and brads toothbrush. I filled one of my pots with water and stuck the toothbrushes in, then walked back to the living room where brad and barb were. I asked both of them to remind me of the brushes on the stove. Well about an hour later, barb got up to go to bed. She walks down the hall, and i hear her coughing really bad! So i come down the hall the whole house is filled with smoke. It was like a movie, i couldn't see a thing. I couldn't breath either. Then i got this sudden fear, because lily's room is connected to the kitchen, and just separated by a door. Her room separates the kitchen and the living room. She has a door on each side. I knew if it was this smoky she could be suffocating!! So i freak out, opening her door, and can i tell you, she was perfectly sound asleep, with not even an ounce of smoke in her room. I didn't really think about it last night (probably because the smell of burnt plastic killed my brain cells) But today, i feel so blessed. First that I didn't burn the house down, but also that Lily was ok, and didn't have to fight to breath through the smoke. I mean, i might just be blowing this all up, but both smoke detectors didn't have batteries, i would have had no clue if barb didnt get up and realize it! We all just have someone watching over us.
Dinner anyone...............................

It was a hot day, but the kids had a lot of fun!



Lilia loved the slides...she's a dare devil.
Those are the cutest animals I have ever seen!!

The cows were a HUGE hit! Who would have thought? I think I'm going to buy a baby cow! The little calf in the picture was so sweet. He stuck his head through the gate and just loved on Lily and Gwen. And talk about hygene... you can't tell in the picture... but i swear that cow bleaches. Anyway... free milk would be a plus?

For CRYING OUT LOUD!!

Well I'm sitting here on the couch, i just put Lily down like any other night, except... with NO BINKY! Yeah, you may be saying "YAY for you," but this SUCKS!! She is screaming her head off, and all i want to do is go in there, and give her that stupid little sucker! Her screaming doesn't bother me, just the fact I could make her feel so much better with one little binky! Isn't growing up hard! DANG IT! WAIT....did she stop?....wait for it, wait for it....by golly i think we've got it......................um nope just kidding.

Swim Lessons

Lily and I started parent-tot swimming lessons today. It was a bitter sweet experience! Lily loved the water, she kicked, scooped, drank the water, but did everything she was told to do... even thought the water heater wasn't working very well... We were FREEZING! Lily and one other little girl were the only ones having fun and enjoying themselves...the rest were screaming!! I felt bad for the moms, trying to do something fun for their kids... but ended up paying to listen to their kid scream for an hour!

This is my new swimsuit... I love it. Even though my body doesnt look like hers in it. Just imagine putting a brick in it... it still looks cute right?

Calling

So i got a new calling today...Im in the Young Womens presidency! I can already tell what a rewarding calling this is going to be. There are not many young women, its kind of an older ward, but i feel like i can grow a lot personally. Today they played this short video for us and i bawled! You have to watch it... it will up lift your day. Show it to your daughters, nieces, grandaughters... it has such a wonderful message. *Turn off my blog music first

Books?

I know this may come as a surprise to most... that I'm not EXTREMELY intelligent...and that I don't find most books interesting. I have probably read 7 books in my life time, the Book of Mormon (only took like 7 years to read! sad.) 4 of them were the twilight series! AMAZING! and the other 2 i have NO clue, they were so long ago. So the whole point of this post is not to tell you how I seem to only finish books with vampires in it, but to ask if any of you could think of a book I would enjoy. Not Harry Potter, and not anything with big words...like ... i don't know Utopia. Thanks, I'm really not retarded... just a little book special! :)

Mother of 3

I had such a busy but fun week. My sister celeste had been trainning for this half marathon at Disneyland and was able to race this weekend. Guess who watched the kids.... better believe it... ME! I went from a mother of 1 to a mother of three... crazy, but quite entertaining. Believe it or not i did quite well. Mark made it to school... we all ate 3 meals a day. I felt pretty proud of myself when i took all three by myself to the kids museum in Salt lake. Although i dont get why they make adults pay to get in. Its like paying someone 8.50 for you to watch your own kids. If you ask me thats a "drop the kids off" price! Anyway they had a blast.
Lily and Gwen playing in the gigantic Play house... someone needs to talk to that boy in the window before he gets any older and is still a peeping tom.
 

Lily plaing in the water. they have ping pong balls that you drop in the water, and watch it go its coarse....AMAZING!
 

Mark being hawled up by a bunch of kids playing in the construction zone.
 

When we got home from the museum it starting to rain. Mark heard the thunder and saw the rain and rushed up stairs to put on his snow clothes. He was really excited
