We'll miss you!!!

It was definately alot easier saying goodbye to my parents the second time around, knowing how much they love serving missions. After hearing many stories and meeting many missionaries that they grew very close to while serving in the Baltics, I am very excited for my parents to serve another mission. Bulgaria is very lucky to have my parents.

I had to throw in this picture of my Grandma Andersen's 98th birthday party. We had fun going to her party last friday and watching her blow out the candles on her cake. Happy Birthday Grandma!!!

Correction

So when did they add a 4th verse to I am a child of God? After looking through the hymn book, going online, and calling Mandy, we figured out that there really is a 4th verse to I am a child of God in the children's songbook. I wish I would have known this before I tried to correct my daughter, sorry Sadie! So yes, I am the dumb mom who doesn't know the primary songs as well as I should. I don't have the actually words to the 4th verse in front of me, but thanks to Mandy, it goes something like: Celestial glory shall be mine, if I can but endure. So Sadie was pretty close with: slush it glory shall be mine, if I can button doors.

I am a child of God

I am a child of God verse #3
Correct: I am a child of God. Rich Blessings are in store;
If I but learn to do his will, I'll live with him once more.

Sadie: I am a child of God. His promises are sure;
Slush his Glory shall be mine, if I can button doors.

This is what Sadie sang to me this morning and when I tried to correct her she told me that she learned a different verse at church and that mine was wright but so was hers.

I just had to throw in one of Sadie's baby pictures, they grow up way to fast!!!

Who knew?

Happy Birthday Grandma!!!

Hurry mom, it's cold out here.

Who knew that January (the most coldest and usually longest month of the year) could be so much fun? Since the new year we have had so much fun going to all of our family events. Last weekend we were able to go to Kurt's Grandma's birthday party in Malad and this week we traveled down to St. George to go to my brother's wedding. We also went with my parents when they were set apart as missionaries for their mission to Bulgaria. Oh I guess I can't forget we have also had lots of fun going to Kurt's city league and church basketball games, go DADDY!!!

Sadie wanted to sing for Spencer's & Carey's luncheon so I had to get it on tape.

Extreme Makeover

Thank you Emily for this wonderful and very thoughtful Christmas present. I LOVE my new hair cut and will always go to Shep.

Before

After

It looks better in person. I wish I would have done this forever ago. Thanks again Emily!!!

Other highlights of this past week:

We finally got rid of the orange couch, thank you Jessica for throwing up all over it last night.
Sadie got her first piece of jewelry from a boy, what are we going to do?!?
Eighty Daisies ( Baby Boutique) agreed to sell my "Tag" blankets on their website, I'll update everyone as soon as this happens.
American Idol season 7 started.

Since my last blog, I've taken some heat for my comment about being out of shape. I have been very blessed to be able to loose the baby fat pretty fast, but if I had to run up and down a basketball court, I couldn't do it to save my life. So that's what I meant by being out of shape. I'm going to try to get to the point where I'm not out of breath after running up the stairs. Anyway, I love my haircut.

New Year Resolutions

It's about time I figured out what I want to do for myself and my family this upcoming year. Here is a list of some of my goals for 2008...

Due to the fact that I am in the worst shape ever, I want to be able to do 20 consecutive push-ups on the Perfect Pushup. It's harder then it looks, trust me.
