New Mexico

Well, it looks like I better just go back to my picture blog. (seeing how it takes me forever to ever post anything)

A week ago we went down to New Mexico for Brad and Reta's wedding .(Brad is Ray's brother).

On the way down we stopped at Wilson's Arch and Trent, Tyler and Ray hiked up to the arch. Here is our family picture.




We stopped here over two years ago when Kara was about the exact age as Kyle (9 months)





Fun fun!

Conference Weekend

So this week has been busy as usual. I have been trying to come up with a craft for Trent’s school Halloween party. I have spent way to much time on the internet searching for ideas, and this is what I came up with. What do you think? It is a picture frame. Due to lack of time I am going to have them all painted, then the kids can glue on the paper (that will already be cut to the right sizes). Hopefully it will be something that they will like and won’t be tossed in the trash by the moms.

We had a good conference weekend. It was wonderful to be able to listen and work around the house yesterday. Ray helped me get some things cleaned up and we took all the books off of the bookshelf in Kara’s room and moved the majority of the kid books to Kyle’s room and Trent and Tyler’s books to their room and put the bookshelf down stairs for some of Ray and I’s books that have been in boxes taking up room in my storage room.

Today was good too and I actually was able to listen to most of it and didn't even fall asleep. Kara and Kyle both took naps during the 2nd session so I didn’t have to worry about them and could listen. I love being inspired to just try harder in my role as mother and wife, and be more motivated to live the gospel better.

These are random photos. The one of me and Kara was at our annual Mother daughter Enrichment party.

This other one is of my neighbor"s kids, they were being so cute so I took some pictures. Baby M, sucks her thumb too. Her and Kyle were both sitting on the ground facing each other sucking their thumbs, I ran to get the camera but by the time I got back they weren't anymore.
