Prom n' Stuff

The original free spirit has finally been brought to earth! They are getting married in the Logan temple, and are happy as larks in the springtime! It's hard to imagine Timmy a married man.


Prom was last weekend. Cole and Shelbe got all polished up for the event, (they clean up well, don't cha think!) Emily did Shelbe's hair, it was a cute low curly bun with a huge orange flower. Just right for her zany taste. They had the dance at a new special events center out on the canyon rim over looking the golf course. Pretty snazzy!
Cole was jazzed about his tails.
We celebrated my birthday on Monday night to take advantage of the nice weather. It was in the 70's that day so we could have yummy hamburgers on the grill, and summer salads. Emily was a great chef, and we were even able to eat outside. Too bad it is supposed to return to the 50's by tommorrow. Stinky! I love my necklace Dana, Thanks! The home crew got me a long overdue new cell phone and the ring I've had my eye on since last fall. Thanks everyone!!
We are getting our counter tops installed tommorrow... Yeah! We are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel at home. I'm waiting until everything is done to send final pictures so hold on.

I'm also looking forward to going to Women's Conference this week with my friends. I hope we can do it as a Mother Daughter activity someday.
I love you all! Mom

The old days...

I had a blast from the past today. I was driving and listening to the radio and "We Belong" came on. WOW, that brings back memories. Suddenly, I was in Kelli's studio dancing with Nysje and Emily and thinking like I was in high school again. I loved spring then because we would dance with the windows open, and it was so exciting that recital was coming up soon.

Jeanie and I walked this morning and we were talking about our mom's. She said her mom wasn't around much and they didn't talked about anything. I laughed and said my mom was always around and we talked about everything!!! I don't know if it was the combination of experiences or what, but on the way home I just started balling. Life is so good for me right now, but I suddenly felt homesick! I miss living at home and having Mom and Dad to take care of me, and I miss being involved in so many fun activities.

Okay, so this is actually about 8 years earlier... but it's a lot cuter than the later ones. :) Well, I think I got it out of my system now, thanks for listening!

Making progress

Of course my pictures are backwards again... the important ones are at the end. someday I'll get it right! We had a great weekend visiting with Noelle and Emrie. What a pair! Emrie is getting so big and her cuteness quotient grows right along with her weight. We loved being able to get sweet smiles out of her, and just kiss, and kiss, and kiss those cheeks. She is just soooo yummy!
We are having a hard time thinking about them moving so far away for the summer.

Also here is the update you have all bee waiting for on the house. It is starting to go back together. The floor is going in.... slowly. He is out into the living room now. We hope to have it done this week. We need base boards in the bedrooms but it's coming together. ( of course Emily's room is yet to be painted.)
I'm working on the cabinets. It's slow going. This is the hardest project of all.
We have all of Emily's stuff in our room too so we can get her ceiling down and paint. It still looks nice
Hole in the wall!
The tile in the bathroom...
No April fools.... It snowed like crazy today!




Cute baby dont'cha think!!!
