BEAUTIMOUS BREAD



YUMM-O!!! Look at this beautimous bread that I made. I found the recipe online and decided to make it. It turned out so pretty that I thought everyone should see it. How nice of me huh? Anyway we ate it with a Southwest Cheesy Potato Soup. Bet you wish that you had been visiting huh? Anyway, I just wanted to show Better Crocker I am hot on her tail. Luv to all.

Next Generation of BBALL players


Look how cute!!!! Gabey is officially a basketball player. He plays in the Snow College basketball league for the 3rd and 4th graders. He did pretty well and he is an awesome double dribbler and traveler too!! It is funny to watch little kids play. On the way to the game Gabe asked Zack if he was actually going to sit and watch the game so he could "learn" something about the game. I laughed out loud because after 5 practices and 2 games you know that you are a pro, I guess!!! Funny.

Mountains of Snow

Yeah we got a foot of much needed snow today. When I came home from church, Chad has been plowing the snow with his buddy's tractor and we came home to a mountian of snow in our yard. Looks like a sledding opportunity!!! It was Sunday and you actually saw children outside in Mormonville!! I was so thrilled to watch how excited the kids got to be able to sled in our own front yard. Lady the dog was enjoying rolling around in the fresh powder. I heard a "thunk" on the side of the house and couldn't find Zackary. I heard a little giggle and asked him where he was and if he was okay. He said, "That was awesome!!!" I asked again, "Where are you?" He responded that he was down in the window well. Only Zack could have pulled that stunt off and laughed about it.

God is good to give us the snow that we need. My verse for the day today was: Phil 4:13 I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me.

Speaking of which, I start school TOMORROW. Four months of crazy life and then three of vacation. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can. I am starting to read the "Purpose Driven Life" if anyone wants to read it with me. It is a 40 day, easy read and would be glad to have reading partners.

Love to all, J

Favorite Photo for 2007

My sister Dani and her son Camryn making retard faces while waiting in line at Universal Studios to see Shrek 4-D.

Dani might kill me for this.

Tech Tard

I am normally a "techtard" when it comes to doing anything on the computer besides Word Perfect but this was actually pretty easy to get going. When my mom was visiting a few months ago it took me 2 hours to figure out how to upload a picture of hers on to a dating website. I ended up having to do it several more times and now I am a certified whiz!!

My sister-in-law Kalli has a blog and she told me I should start one. Yeah, look at me go. I don't know if I will ever have anything of value to say but I will try anyway because I know at least my mom and Kalli will read it and possibly my sister Dani and my aunt Barbara.

Well let's see if this actually works when I try to post it.

I start my last semester at Snow on Monday. Graduation here I come. I still have 13 credits but that is a full load when you have three kids, a husband, a home, a dog, 4 horses, 5 classes and a partridge in a pear tree!!

Love to all until the next blog.
