Jordan passed his permit test today! We will finally have another driver.				My favorite quote on the way home was, "Don't talk to me, there are too many things for me to pay attention to."

All I want for Christmas is ...my two "pulled" teeth!

2011-12-29T12:55:00.000-08:00

Jacob went to the dentist this morning!
Five shots, two cavities, and two pulled teeth later....

The dentist said he was one of his best patients ever!

Kaylie and Hannah made sure his recovery was first class.

Ice cream ought to cure the pain....
or at least add another cavity or two!

Look! A New Post!!!!

2011-11-26T16:58:00.000-08:00

After 18 long years, I have decided to post again. Don't get used to it, who knows how long it will be till I do it again.We took some family photos today...Enjoy!!


Can you feel the love?

Anyone want to buy a house?

2010-06-13T18:58:00.001-07:00

I have found out (which, by the way, I already knew) that KSL and a "For Sale By Owner" sign don't sell a house. This week I will get it listed on the MLS and hope for the best. Wish us luck! (I think!?!?)

Happy 14th Birthday, Jordan!

2010-06-13T18:47:00.001-07:00

Jordan and Will gladly celebrate their birthdays together.

.....................Well, that should take care of us for about FOUR years! Okay, Brenda?

2009-11-07T18:41:00.000-08:00

Tis the season! Jordan put up our Christmas lights tonight all by himself. I certainly appreciate his willingness to do the things I don't want to. Thanks Jordan!

INSIDE!

2009-11-07T18:11:00.000-08:00

Well, here it is, the inside of Jordan's fort. I call it Jordan's fort because he has probably spent more time in this fort than anyone else. He has spent many summer nights asleep on the floor or couch (Yes, couch!).

Jordo's "Bachelor" Pad

2009-11-07T18:01:00.000-08:00

This is the second batch, in a series of three, of pictures of the fort Jordan and his buddies built this summer. Many long hours were spent dumpster diving, hammering, sweating, and sawing to produce this "pad." Notice the 2005 & 2007 BYU Football players, John Beck, Kelly Poppinga, and Bryan Kehl that adorn the side and the "Y" fans only sign on the door. These boys are quite pleased with themselves and plan to add a "basement" floor next summer.

Yet another post (Gotta use these pictures somewhere!)

2009-11-07T17:56:00.000-08:00

Julie and Steve gave us their old entertainment center. This summer, in all my free time, I refinished it. This is the final product!

Brace Yourself! A New Post On My Blog! Enjoy It! It Took Me Two Hours To Figure It Out!

HIGHLIGHTS OF 2008!!!

2009-01-02T12:07:00.000-08:00

Kaylie was baptized and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints on January 5th, 2008 by her grandfather. Her cousin Hannah was baptized at the same time. The baptisms were followed by a traditional trip to the ice cream store!

Meghan and I went to the General Young Women's Conference up at the Conference Center with other young women from our ward.

Jordan turned 12 on June 6th, 2008 and received the Aaronic Priesthood from his grandfather. He passed the sacrament at the Woolf's and Neeley's ward for the first time with his cousin Brady showing him the ropes. (He spent 3 weeks at the Neeley's home this summer and loved every minute of it!)

Jacob started Kindergarten in August. He was so excited! I can't believe that my "baby" has started school.

Meghan participated in the Junior High play "Fiddler on the Roof" and made the 9th grade basketball team! I have loved watching her games, they bring back many good memories of my own.

Mom is DONE with class!

2008-12-19T21:35:00.000-08:00

I start my student teaching at Park Elementary School in January 2009. I am SOOOO done with going to class each day. Finals are over and I feel oh, so good!

Jacob's Kindergarten Christmas program

2008-12-19T21:32:00.000-08:00

"The best part of Christmas, you really want to know?" So says Jacob and with so much expression too!

Kaylie turns 9!!!

2008-12-19T21:24:00.001-08:00

Aunt Brenda gave Kaylie a gingerbread house for her birthday. Kaylie immediately constructed this house and with the help of her brothers-it all disappeared the following day!

I can't believe how big these girls have grown! Only yesturday, they were playing naked in the sandpile out back!

We love our Aunt Janis!

Soccer is MY Game!

2008-10-22T21:57:00.001-07:00

Jacob discovered the world of soccer this fall. He was more excited for soccer to start than for Kindergarten to begin. He was all about how many goals he could score each game. The season ended without a trophy-much to his dismay. He informed me that he would play basketball if they had "Cub" Basketball.

2008-10-22T21:54:00.000-07:00

I have FINALLY finished this darn play. If you notice I had to wear A LOT of MAKEUP, I looked like a scary Halloween Barbie Doll. It was really neat to look out into the audience and see my aunts, cousins, friends, and family there supporting me. :)

We Are SOOOO Proud of Jordan!

2008-10-22T21:32:00.000-07:00

We are so proud of Jordan. He has finally come out of his shell. He is such a special spirit. We just know that he will be successful in the future!

I am attending Springville Junior High as a 7th grader this year. I have been busy playing tackle football and watching the BYU Cougars dominate the Mountain West Conference. Rah, rah, rah, rah, rah!

Jacob-Just your average Kindergartner!

2008-10-12T22:21:00.000-07:00

I have been good at school. I like to go to McDonald's but what I like more is soccer.

Kaylie-Collarbone and All!

2008-10-12T22:16:00.001-07:00

I was in soccer . I play football. I go to Westside Elementary school and I love it. My teacher is Ms. Shwaiger. At recess I either play football or kick ball or speed.

Jordan's tackle football team went to the Superbowl, only to be defeated by their rival, Rotary Mustangs. His neighbor and best friend, Skyler, played for Rotary - fortunately, they are still friends!

What's New With Meghan!

2008-10-12T21:39:00.000-07:00

I have recently entered 9th grade at Springville Junior High. I just finished participating in the school's musical Fiddler on the Roof. It was a lot of hard work. I am now working on making the Basketball team. I hope that all the hard work at basketball camp with Lindsey will pay off, especially my singing, eating, and dance moves.

TIMBER!!!!

2008-10-12T21:29:00.000-07:00

I never thought I'd have the courage to have our 10 year old tree cut down! It reeked too much havoc on the front lawn and after two years of debating, I went ahead and did it. Though the kids were not pleased-they spent all evening building forts in the aftermath!
