Sick....blah!


Sick of being sick!
*Ben is sick with a hacking cough
*Mom is sick with a bad cold
*We are waiting to take baby Hannah to the Doctor's today since it appears she has pink eye and a cold and most likely an ear infection. She has kept us up the last 2 nights. Poor bugger.
We are getting sick frequently. What gives!? I guess is kids catch something it spreads like wildfire.

callings

Past-Present

~Sunbeam Teacher
~Missionary
~Primary Chorister
~Ward Chorister
~Nursery
~Enrichment Committee (when it was called that)
~Temple Prep Teacher
~ Relief Society Instructor 4th Sunday
~ Mia Maid Adviser
~Relief Society Pianist (current calling)
~An additional calling: Activity Day's working with the 8 & 9 year olds.

I really love how callings in the LDS church help us to grow. For example. I am currently the Relief Society Pianist (and working with the Activity Day's). I only took 4 years of piano lessons and I am really not that good. I don't even own a piano just a cheap keyboard. Well over the last few months I have seen a HUGE change in how I play the piano. I am getting better and more confident playing while others sing along.

I now have an additional calling to work with the 8 and 9 year old girls with Activity Day's. I went to the first activity yesterday. It was fun! What a sweet age to be at. Such sweet girls! It gives me a glimpse into Hannah's future and what a sweet girl she will become.

Just my thoughts for today.

vinyl chalkboard



I found this vinyl chalkboard at a store that sell's new/used kids clothes etc. Ben loves it! I might have to buy one for my kitchen. It would make a great place to leave reminder notes.

Friday Favorites

I hate touching raw meat so I use these disposable gloves, if I don't have any on hand (no pun) I use sandwich baggies to cover my hands.

Mary Kay..bless your heart! Timewise cleanser. Can't wait to try more of the Timewise collection


Love this movie to pieces! One of my favorite lines is from Charlotte who say's as she is grabbing handfuls of napkins "I swear I'm sweating like a sinner in church" hee hee
