Loved it, Used it

(First of all I don't like typing in the dark)

Bekki shared the lovely site to help with a little Halloween spirit. How do you like it. Kinda shook this up eh. If you like and want to try he you go: MatieKay

What is one more thing?

When you have too many things to do that you can't even keep the hours of the day straight, why not paint a whole bedroom. Justin and the boys went down to the valley to go to the priesthood session with Pappy. (The boys played with Granny) I have been thinking of these colors for awhile now. I am surprising Justin when he comes home. It was totally like the shows. Well not really. I was the only one there and doing in on my own. I had to do the paint, hardware and all the fabric stuff by myself. Still in my head is a wedding ring quilt in brown and green. Also pillows that are cutsie and maybe a basket with no top or bottom to cover the tv and stuff. Hopefully that will get done before I turn 40.

Have you ever said this?

Stand up Sit down

This is my brand new phone. Her name is Tess. She is so beautiful. Last January I lost my first phone. I had a huge sense of loss. My loving father sent me a substitute. Jane (the phone) was great. She held up and I spent many minutes with her. When the option of the 2 year upgrade came upon me, I felt the need to see if Jane wouldn't mind sitting out. I felt that she had used up what she had in the first half of the game and it was time for a new linebacker. I went to the store in the mall wondering if there was anything that could compare with either of my team members. I searched and looked at every phone. There just wasn't one screaming out to me that they were ready to play. Until I saw Tess. She had a younger sister that was out for the season with a broken caller bone. (manufacture defects) I wondered would it ever be possible with the budget set out for new team members if Tess would be willing to sign a deal. Through many hours discussing this issue with Tess' agent we came to a deal. Tess got on the plane and was on the team in 1 - 2 business days. So far Tess is working well with others. She loves to get in the pocket. It is great to have her in the game.

Road Trip

While I was working yesturday (hemming 18 pairs of pants) Justin took the kids out for a stroll east of Flagstaff down the 40. Did you know that there is a town called Two Guns, Arizona? Well these are some of the things they saw on the side of the road. Sam was scared of the dinosaurs so there isn't a picture of him with them. Keaton on the other hand was a ham as usual.

Which Twilight novel character are you?

You're Jacob Black - You were raised to believe that family and community is the most important thing in life. You are also a fun-loving person who sometimes can see life a little too amusing and have trouble taking things seriously. Over all, you're a loyal and excellent friend to have. Take this quiz!

The difference between...

Knowing how to crochet and thinking you know how to crochet.

These hats were made with the same pattern the top one is done correctly and the bottom one turned out well. I think I like the bottom one better. Thanks Les for the link, they are in the mail!

For 4 months this is what I heard

"Mom, but I don't want a haircut. I want it long. (why) just cause. Noooooo don't cut my hair. What about just the curlies on the sides. No I like it over my ears. No." So on Saturday night I got brave enough to deal with the screaming and the wailing. He was so sad he even started to cry. Then I started cutting. The scissors weren't sharp enough so I left to get different ones. When I came back I met a smiling happy boy. He was so excited to watch me cut his hair. He didn't even get to itchy. Wow, what a difference. I sure do love my clean cut boy. I think he is just a little more silly when his hair is shorter. How fun.

What I Live For

Keaton age 8

Last weekend the family went down to the valley. Justin and I helped out at Nana's house painting and such. Keaton was excited to help until he realized how much work painting is. Sam came and helped when Keaton was finished and so did Nellie. What great children we have. When Keaton was done in the back he went to the front house and got out the alligator head. This is a 'stuffed' head of a tiny alligator (or croc, I can't tell the difference, it is like telling twins apart). Well what do you do with a really cool thing that Nana says to be careful with and to not hurt. Of course you draw it.
He even counted the teeth and made a word problem out of it:
39 teeth on top and bottom =78 teeth

Poor Hamster

Hamstey we bid you a fond adiu. We loved you and will miss you. Poor Hamster

Late Night

Justin got a new Ipod that plays movies. He put some of his pitctures on it for music videos. Keaton was so excited that he couldn't sleep. What a nice dad to indulge him and play music for hours. They are great together.
