Superhero Camp





I got to go to girls camp last night and be a superhero! It was fun I was steadfast girl, if you can't see it I made a gold anchor on my shirt and then sewed a gold rope around it in the form of a S. My steadfast girl mantra was Ether 12:4. I spoke on the idea that different trials will come to everyone and to have your anchor ready so you don't lose your faith at each hardship. I was soo nervous as I was waiting for my first group. And then the they came marching up singing the primary song, a childs prayer, which i talk about in my message, it was a tender mercy, very cool! Next to me in this not so good picture but the only I got is super service sista who was brave enough to wear red bikini bottoms over spandex and stuffed a shirt with packing ballons to get muscles! And on the other side is scripture power woman. We had a total blast, we were all very nervous. We spoke 7 times for 8 mintues as the girls cycled through the camp, and they went according to wards instead of age groups which was really nice. Bard helped by giving me one of the best lines, that I am better then ok, I rock! the girls loved it! When someone sends me a better picture I will certainly post it instead of this one. And yes I am in pleather pants and a cape, luckily nothing melted by the campfire!

PreK graduation




Elles Preschool graduation! Very cute. I was the only mother who did not notice that it was a red white and blue themed graduation, so Elle stuck out beautifully in her yellow and pink! there was a picinic at the school after but the food looked so disturbing that Susan and I took Elle to chillis instead! Luckily I brought my watermelon to school in disposable dishes so we could walk away! Did you all see the Disney movie the Incredibles? The mom in it is upset with the dad for not making the 4th grade graduation and he says whats the big deal they are just celebrating being normal! Well this is exciting to have Elle be the last preschooler for me!! On to Kindergarden we go!

Funny Day

Ok I realize this is my 2nd post in one day, I admit I am on excedrin again. But it was really needed for my headache... anyway so I wanted to tell you about yesterday. Elle was at preschool practicing for her preschool graduation which is next week, and she threw up all over the stage! Very sad and luckily she is too young to be embarressed! then later that day day Matts school bus was hit in the side by a car driven by some less then legal yardworkers. He had his leg wedged under the seat in front of him so came out with a nice bruise that I then got to spend a few hours in the ER to make sure it wasn't cracked or anything. Where every nurse on duty came in to ask if I was really his mother because I looked so young. which I remember happening to mom ALOT. It may be because I was in my pink furry boots with shorts and a pony tail, not exactly Georgia mother attaire yah know??
Now I think I'll take my excedrin high to the kitchen to do the dishes, load a plate, kick ball change, clear the table, twirl around, leap across the floor in front of the tv so my kids will think i'm crazy... kick ball change....

Music

Ok there is no way I can only put music on that everyone will like. You will notice I used great restraint, there is no skid row. Which really no play list should be without, a little I Remember You should be on everyones list. And don't laugh at my George Michael song, at least it's not faith or father figure, could be worse. As for Meatloaf, hello Kirk proposed to me with Meatloaf in the back ground! And at least I didn't put Paradise by the Dashboard light on....

Mothers Day

OK I was soo smart this mothers day. I made a overnight french toast casserole which is my favorite on Sat night so all the family would have to do on Sunday monring was throw it in the oven and they've made my favorite breakfast... so Sunday morning being the only one up, all I had to do was throw it in the oven and make my own favorite breakfast!
Sun night Elle was trying to convince me to let her sleep in my bed and I said, " Elle it's mothers day and so I want to sleep in my bed all by myself and you sleep in your bed." she looked and me and said " mom it's HAPPY mothers day and I am not happy sleeping in my bed. I am supposed to be happy!"
OK seriously have no idea what I'm doing, but i want to try! It has been so fun seeing Ken and Kristens blog and Bard and Ric that I'm trying.
