Mexico Villahermosa Mission

What can I say about this kid? 
Wow. 
He did such a good job teaching us about the people of Mexico
and about the First Vision. 
I never get tired of learning about Joseph Smith.
Especially when my children are the ones teaching me. 
We enjoyed some tacos for dinner and Cheesecake Sopapilla for dessert~
we were thinking of you Quinny-Poo!
 And because there hasn't been one in awhile, 
here's a picture of mine truly.... 
looking like a monkey.... or an ape. 
He's taking me on a date this weekend. 
It's been way too long since we've been on a date that's been out of the house. 
I'm going to get all dressed up and smelling nice.
Not that that's unusual.
Okay, it's maybe a little unusual. 

And 
Again, it's a beautiful day outside. 
Josh and I went for a drive and drove until the pavement ran out. 
So we turned around and came home. 
Now I'm off to get dressed and cleaned up cause play group's at my house today. 
And did I mention that I can once again (again) make cookies??
My oven temp was off. 
Something so simple. 
We've already made cookies twice and I'm making some more today. 

It's already such a good day.....

Dog and Cat...Stevens, that is.

Lately, Carl is the only one who gets naps. (unless it's Sunday...then Trevor and I both demand one) If I was a big, hairy dog, I would expect naps everyday also and would just lay down where ever I wanted to (even it it was in everyone's way). You can just catch a glimpse of my moccasins. And trust me they.are.cute. I love  madewell . My new favorite singer this week? Cat Stevens. It took me watching the movie Harold and Maude to really listen to his music. Wow. And hey, I'm not going to be shy.  I'm going to sing out to the wild world that I love his songs. (if you also like Cat Stevens, then you'll understand the previous sentence...)

Prayers

We have just received news that earlier today my sister Amy and her family have been in a car accident. Tim and the five kids are okay, although banged up, but Amy is in the ICU. They hit hail while driving and the car rolled 3 times and Amy was ejected from the car. All we know so far is that she has broken ribs and  punctured lungs. Please, please please pray for her and her family. Thank you.

Ralph the dog.

Morning at my house is so bright and lovely~that is, as long as it's not snowing or preparing to snow. I made Annabelle open the curtains first thing this morning. When my mornings start out like this, warm and bright, it just makes me happy. Today Joshua decided to be a dog. A dog named Ralph. And Ralph loves raspberry sherbet. Ralph got really tired and is now resting while watching Shrek 2. Not my favorite movie but whatever... I think I misspoke yesterday when I wrote that I/we had big decisions to make. There's nothing out of the ordinary except for, you know, the usual. And the fact that we found out yesterday that both girls need braces; Emily now or at least soon and Annabelle in a year or so. And Stephen has possibly two developing cavities. At this moment in time, I am very, extremely, incredibly grateful for dental insurance. That may not be the case in a few months but I'm not thinking about that...and I'm trying to no...
