Day 7,8,9 (hahah 7 ate 9 ok bad joke)

Hahaha so as you can see I've been a little busy. That being said, I had a very eventful past few days. So this weekend I took pictures of my sis in law and her family and can't wait to share them with y'all. That Carsyn is adorable and I think we need to steal her away for a night at Aunties and Uncles' house. :D Here's a peeksie... isn't she stunning and beautiful and her momma and dad arent half bad either!


On to Sunday...so for awhile we knew that our Relief Society Presidency was going to be changing because a dear friend of mine, Vera (aka Relief Society El-presidente) was moving. Well on Sunday we were all somewhat surprised to find out that we were all being released without a new presidency in place. The Lords work will carry on and we are still acting as a presidency until the official one is called. I loved working with all of the presidency and have developed some close and awesome friends! It's been a blessing to serve the ladies in the ward and I'm going to miss the Jones family more than anything. I have always considered Vera family and I will miss our long talks in the burb. I have always been able to get advice when I needed it and a kick in the rear when I needed it. ;) I have learned so much from her and she is a wonderful example to me. Best of luck guys...whew ok lets move on.

Monday was when we went and sat down with one of the brides to go over DJ stuff and give her her pictures. She loved them and I felt that this session gave me tremendous growth and I am very pleased with how they turned out.

Tuesday....spells relief! We won the case against the crazy neighbor lady and our dog. We showed up to court to present our evidence that our dog is not a nuisance and a couple of our awesome neighbors also went to testify. Well animal control couldn't get a hold of the lady for weeks so they dismissed the case. WHOOOO HOOOOO!!!!!!! So she can't complain about us ever again!! CHAA- CHING!! Now we need to bring her a Book of Mormon!

Day 5

Best day ever!!! Got to spend lunch with some awesome ladies and I was so glad to see my Neigh again! Me and Twylla tried on the biggest Grandpa glasses at Walmart that we could find and once again made the clerk only wish she were friends with us cause we are AWESOME and of course we had to take pictures of our awesomeness!!! The clerk had wondered if we were drinking! LOL ****We need to try on our Christmas sweater vests with cardinal appliques on them again Twy!!! Then went to the Bridges for Issacs' bday and laughed our hinnies (sp?) off! So I totally checked it on spell check and ninnies, whinnies, pinnies and shinnies came up, what the heck is that???) Now I am off to bed, later than I should (I am now changing my post time so you can't actually see what time it is) and hopefully I'll have something enlightening to share tomorrow. :)

P.S. I have been dreaming weird dreams full of action and a scary chasing spider. Gooooo no T.V.!!! Hahaahahaha!!!!!

Day 3

I have two sickies in my casa today. Kimberly is having stomache issues and Rob has a high fever and cough. UGH! Other than that we went to the Florence library for story time with the Florence fire department. They got to even climb in the truck, see a real firefighter get his protective gear on and they each got a plastic fire helmet. How fun was that? Then we headed off to the Anthem park to play outside in this ever amazing and extraordinary weather. FALL is in the air people and I couldn't be happier!!! Oh and my fab sister in law cut my hair on Monday and I'm loving my new do! Thanks Rachel and I can't wait to take pics of your family!
Today I have to admit I missed TV a teensie weensie bit.... more as my release at the end of a busy day. I am loving the family time that we share...which is always perfect, so tonight I'm sharing "The Family:A Proclamation to the World" Now I know most of you all out there have read it but if you haven't even heard of it before or need a refresher, visit HERE and read all about it.

So HAPPY even though we truely don't have this season but it makes me feel better to pretend that we do...FALL!

Day 2

Spent today playing Yahtzee with my girlies and can I just tell you how SWEET that game is? So much fun, just hanging out and enjoying each other's company. I managed to clean out the under the stairs closet and note to self : forgot to collect the sand from the shoe basket for my sandbox outside. I also ran in to town to visit my sister Carrie at work and I went ahead and grabbed my IPOD for this VERY long drive into Phoenix. As I was going to put on my most favoritist acoustic tunes....I remembered! HA so thankfully I have some super swell church stuff on it and for the better part of the drive..no arguing in the back seat from the kids...ya QUIET and for those of you that have ever called me while I was in the car, you know that it is always loud...poking, screaming etc. Not today *SIGH* yes peace be unto my soul.

Ok tonight I am going to end my post by sharing my testimony :

I know that this church is true. That this is the restored gospel and I know that if I didn't have it in my life, I'd literally be lost. I stand in awe and I'm so thankful for the Prophet Joseph Smith for his strong testimony to bring the restored gospel to the earth, even when he was persecuted. I know that President Monson is a true modern day prophet and receives direct communication from our Heavenly Father for the benefit of His children. I'm grateful for a husband who possesses the priesthood and when I'm sick or just having a rough time that I can ask for a blessing for healing and receive the peace that I need. I have a testimony of prayer and I have seen Heavenly Father's hand personally in my life as well as those around me. I believe that Heavenly Father knows us individually and knows our weaknesses and strengths and still loves us indefinitely. I know that the scriptures are true and hold the many answers to the questions that we are seeking. I'm grateful for the temple and the work that is done for those who have passed. For the feeling of peace that I feel while I am there. For the knowledge of eternal families and that death is not the end.
I say these things in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Night!
