I don't know if it's the weather or growing spurts but my kids have been extra grumpy with each other. So I decided that it was time for a movie. FIREPROOF ...Yes I am aware this is intended for Marriages but the movie had such great messages that we tried to bring this down to their level. I was so pleased with how everyone was getting along and thought to myself...Wow! this was easy. And then reality set in and the kids were back at each others throat. My only wish is that they got something out of this movie and they can realize that relationships are selfless whether it be family or friends. And the most important message was you need the Lord and with him anything is possible.

Tasha's Lost Tooth Some years ago Tasha and Kyle were at the normal...FIGHTING and we had tried to stop them with no success. A few minutes later she came over claiming that she had lost her first tooth. However she had no idea where it was. We looked high and low...in and out of everything and the only thing we found was a little Dog tooth. Tasha was upset because the tooth fairy would not come if there was no tooth we tried to tell her that it would be o.k. She still wanted to put her tooth under her pillow. So we came up with a ...

Incredible Kids

I Love being a Mom! Especially when you hear the good things your kids do. Last Saturday Tasha went to a Beehive conference and made a difference in a young girls life. I am going to back track just a little to give you this incredible story. All last week we were reminded that Tasha had a Conference to be at, at 9:00 am. Saturday. She had even arranged for a ride to and from. Friday evening she decided not to go because Grandma and Grandpa were still here. Saturday Morning she got dressed and at 5min. to 9a.m. she asked for a ride to the conference. We were a little confused with the sudden mind change but didn't think anything of it until Sunday Morning when I got this e-mail... Hi Cindy,Would you tell Tasha- Thank You for me. Paige was the only beehive from our ward and I don't think any of our leaders were there when she got there either. Paige is very quite and does not integrate herself into groups very well. She told me that Tasha was there and asked her to come sit wit...

Yesterday was our 15 th year Anniversary! I can't believe how time fly's because it seems that we are still trying to figure each other out. I always figured by now I would have all the In's and outs of Sam figured out, and that is SO not the case. However I am looking forward to learning more about him as the years pass.

Kidnapped

My parents came up to Washington to kidnap Andrew and me to take us on vacation with them. (It took allot of coaxing, I was worried that my family would fall apart without me.) lol . (Andrew playing on the side of the road) Monday morning I drop off the kids at School and after packing the last odds and ends we headed to Oregon. The drive was beautiful and we were making pretty good time, we had a little over a hour left when we ran over a good sized rock that was just hanging out in the middle of the road. We knew there was damage but until the oil light came on (within seconds of running over the rock) we had no idea to the extent of damage. So here we sat in the middle of nowhere with no Cell phone coverage and a big hole in the oil pan. My mom had waved down some help as Andrew and I had just finished praying for our safety and calmness. The couple that stopped could get service on their phone and called for a tow truck. However we were told that it would be two hours before the...
