Use Blogs for Good

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints: "Elder Ballard Urges Students to Use New Media
At a commencement address on December 15, 2007, Elder M. Russell Ballard urged graduating students at Brigham Young University-Hawaii to use blogs and other forms of “new media” to contribute to a national conversation about the Church."

I read this article in the Newspaper and felt an urgency to share what I know of the Gospel through my blog. Who ever knew that blogging would be a way to share with our friends and family our testimonies of the Gospel? I have decided to share an aspect of the Gospel in my Blog once a week, so please check back weekly to see what is new.
Also check out www.lds.org anytime for answers to questions about the Church.

Brother on the Market!

I think my brother would kill me if he saw this posting, but here goes nothing! I just had all of my family over at our house last night for my brother, Scotty's Graduation Party! He graduated from BYU-I this past weekend, and we had a party for him! He is a cute guy, a graduate now, and is staying in Utah! If any of you want to set him up with someone you know, let me know because he is a catch! Love ya Scotty!

Cat in the Tree with Curler Girl!

Sounds like a Cartoon right? Well, this is for real! I was walking by the Music Room where our Christmas Tree is and all of a sudden it started to move! I freaked out, but then was too curious to be scared! Low and behold, one of our little kittens was in the Christmas Tree just hanging out! Of course a lot of the decorations were off, so I had to re-decorate the tree! Then Sunny had curlers in her hair for the first time and she just looked so darn cute! I think I have come to terms that her hair will never be as curly as Riley's, so I am resorting to curlers!

Letter to Santa Claus!

Riley wrote a letter to Santa Claus, with mom's help and then he decided to mail it to the North Pole! Well, a letter came back to Riley from Santa! He was so excited to see what Santa said! The next day, we got a knock on our door, Riley answered it, and Santa was at our house! Right when Riley saw him, he said, "Daddy!-why are you a Daddy Santa?" Regan had to dress up as Santa for one of our friends Family parties, and so he decided to come to our house to-not thinking that Riley would recognize him! I guess a boy knows his daddy even when he looks pretty funny!

Gingerbread Activity!

My Aunt Linda came into town last weekend, so we spent some time with her. She played with the kids while the big kids (Regan and the girls) put together a gingerbread house! The frosting was not keeping the walls up, so Regan Hot Glued it! Riley & Sunny loved decorating it with candies-Sunny ate more than she decorated with! Here is the result!

Long Time No Blog

So it has been a while since I have actually posted pictures and updated my blog so here we go! I actually thought that nothing went on, but then I downloaded my pictures, and ya-things went on! I just can't believe that I take so many pictures!
Pictures in Order:
*Girls Night Out-we went to the Forgotten Carols by Michael Mclean and out to dinner. It totally put me in the Christmas Spirit!
*Out to dinner at the Joseph Smith Building, the Garden with a bunch of friends. I love date night! We had to split up into 5 people on 1 table and 5 people on another table and it was so much fun to have all of the girls at 1 and the boys at another! Sorry Regan!
*As We left the Joseph Smith Movie, it was snowing so hard and I didn't have a hood on my coat, so needless to say, my hair was soaked! I started out with straight hair, and ended up with really curly hair!
*Regan and I went to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Concert on Saturday night and it was amazing! Now I am really in the Christmas Spirit. We got in our seats at 6:00, and the concert didn't start until 7:30 so we had some relaxing time reading our books beforehand. Regan's mom was so sweet to watch our kids all night at our own house! Thanks Michelle!
