To my biggest fan.

I have to tell you that my biggest blogger fan is my sister Jamie. She really gets involved if I do not post at LEAST once a month. I know it doesn't seem that hard to do but we have a internet set up that hardly ever works....frustrating. Anyways I am make a promise to at least try to post once a month. If you get more that would just be crazy huh.....

OUR TRIP TO BOISE

I went to Boise to be apart of the 3rd Annual Choreography workshop that a close friend and mentor of mine does and is so gracious to let me be apart of every year. I was so glad that I was there this year even though I had just given birth and was bummed that I was not in the shape I want to be to do such things. Watch for this film on the Local Boise access channel but will try to post the film or pictures on this wonderful workshop as soon as I get something to post.

My Man played golf with his buddies! We had alot of fun with them hanging out with them. He wishes he could move there but mmmm....the job economy there is horrible. Too bad I miss the warm weather there.

JAMIE"S FUNDRAISER YARD SALE

This is what Mj did the entire two days of the yard sale! People didn't now that the stuff she had was really in the yard sale because she played with the stuff the ENTIRE day. And then if they would go to buy something she had been playing with or one of her toys, she follow them around telling them it was hers. I would remind her we are selling it for Jamie! She would say " Oh, for Jamie! Ok, she is in the hospital and is sad huh".

My biggest helper ....my mother!

PIZZA NIGHT

We had a fun pizza night as a family in June. Made the dough from scratch and used my mad "Papa Murphy's" skills I awired as a high schoolin' ....lol. They were really good funny thing is I am not sure you really save money doing it this way. Fresh food and all the ingreatants are just about the same as going to buy one.

Ending the Spring on a great note!

Lovely yard work...as you can tell he just loves it....lol~

Mj with her favorite Friend. They had so much fun playing princesses in the back yard. These are the dresses we made for the performance for the school this month. We had professional pictures taken so I will post them as soon as I get then next week.

I explained to her.."this is a special book ....it has Jesus in it....so we take care of it and don't eat it ok"....it was like talking to a dog about beautiful flowers they just look and smile.

For the love of PEEPS!

One of the traditions that we do for the morning of V day is make heart shaped pancakes and everyone gets a love letter from someone in the family full of candy......my mother always made us feel special on the that morning before we went to school. I thought it was a good way to pass on the love......

Thank you for anyone and everyone that supports our family and Jamie during this time and in the past year! We now our community cares~

Don't rain on my parade!

This is one of the only posts I have done without pictures. I just have to vent about having a great day and then having it rain on my head yesterday. ...lol! Darren and I got a great tax return due to my Performing School. This was great news to me not only because it would be great news to anyone but that my school has not made us any money for the three years I have ran it. Yes, sadly it only pays for itself which I can not complain at least it does that....lol! I enjoy teaching, love the arts and the children so I don't really mind that it doesn't. I guess I was just really excited that finally I was going to get paid back for some of the hard work that has went into constructing the school from nothing and for nothing. Then comes the rain....I got some devastating phone calls yesterday one that will make me have to face the very difficult task of trying to stay a float after the Spring Show this year with the school, not soon after that one I got one were I found out my stable babysitter that takes Mj when I teach can no longer take her as of Yesterday and then the last but not least was the biggest blow, the investment property that Darren got into with my brother fell through. I almost stopped answering the phone yesterday!! I know the lord will take care of us he always has. He has always helped me with the school and I did get a new babysitter easier then I thought it would be but I am really scared about the money it might take to keep this house from enveloping everything we own! This is a big trial for me ....I am not sure why. I have went through harder things it seems but I really am struggling to stay positive. I am praying for the strength to endure through this if it gets ugly! I know the lords way is not always my way .......dang it! 'If' is good hope I think....lol!

We are cleaning it up!

After 7 years of marriage and purchasing two homes we are sick of the junk we have collected and keep hidden away in the depths of the garage. So, I we are simplifying life. My mother and I were talking and she said something very profound. During the depression they saved everything right down to the glass bottles because the cost on everything to make was so much. We have come from the that generation....save everything. Funny thing is we are asked by the General Authorities to save money and buy less things. I want to try to get rid of the junk, the "items" in my life that I have carried around for WAY too long. So that I can save the "Food" I need to be saving not the junk!

Here we are cleaning the garage, being silly, while we work in the snow! It was pretty cold that day but it was fun!

Below is the end result. See the cool storage shelves from Home Depot!

Plus my super cool dance moves....lol!

My Mans Investment property!

My brother and My Man bought an investment property at the end of October of last year and stated working in it first thing in November. So they took a dumpy old house that smelled really bad and look like no one cleaned or up kept for a long time and turned into this really cute old fashioned home in 2 1/2 months. I was there a lot just to spend time with him because he was a little obsessed, even though he wouldn't admit he was. There were a few weeks there were I think I saw him a total of 5 hours all week between this house and his real job....lol. It was not very funny to me at the time but it has been fun to help out and see the changes that make this house so pretty now. The biggest stress in doing this that the house will stay on the market forever and eat up all the money (and then some) that you would make on it....but it was only on the market for 3 weeks and we already have signed papers for an offer. I was tempted to move into it. It has sooo much cute character I fell in love with it. Too much house for us right now it has 4300 sq feet! Take a look at his and my brother hard work!
