Little Loves

I am very hesitant to post this for fear that someone will read into it and assume that I must be pregnant. Quite contrary. On Sunday, I was falling asleep at church and David gave me the task of drawing our family in 7 years to keep myself awake. This was the result:




Later, we got into the ongoing child naming game. It is interesting to see how our opinions change over time. This is what we came up with, in no particular order:

Evelyn
Hayden
Kimball
Jaden
Bailey
Corban
Olivia
Emery
Hiram
Bentley
Camrie
McKinley
Kennedy

Maybe someday we will have a few of these. :)

You're Eyes Are Beautiful!

By
The other day, I was wandering around a health fair that David had a booth at for our business. (Music is good for your health, okay?!) Anyway, I was chattin' it up with people I knew and meeting some people who had recently joined our music studio. For awhile, I just walked aimlessly following my kids as they went from booth to booth collecting goodies.

I stood there for a second maybe wondering if I had just imagined it. It was so quick that I didn't even respond. I just stood there.

Be kind to other humans. Even if it makes you a little weird.

So, herrrre goes. I ad lib a lot when I speak, so I will try to type out the details I didn't write down originally. :) Helping Families Keep the 1 st and 2 nd Great Commandments Family Introduction David and I met in the fall of 2009 through a mutual friend. My mission companion, Cathy came to visit me in Provo and had a dinner date with a bunch of her BYU-I friends in Salt Lake City, so I tagged along. Cathy and David ran cameras together in the AV department on campus. We became Facebook friends that night, and the rest is history.  I moved up to Rexburg after I graduated, and w e got married in 2010.

Confessions of an Unlikely Teacher

By
Most of the choices I have had to make in my life have been between right and wrong, or a selection of one option among many.  I haven't often been required to make choices of elimination where I have two great things, but must sacrifice one in order to keep the other.   When I made the decision to apply to BYU, it was an easy choice.  I could choose any university I wanted, but that was the only one I had interest in.  I had always wanted to go there.  My best friends all wanted to go there.  I applied early.  I was accepted.  It was great.  I was anxious of course to know whether I would get in or not, but I never had to act on my back-up plans.   My choice to go on a mission was a little more tricky, but still obvious.  I had wanted to serve a mission from the time I was 15, and although other opportunities presented themselves along the way, like school and boys, when the time came, there wasn't much to think about. ...
