Our Prophet's quote ........

"There's just as much value in those who have slipped off. Just let's go back and get them" (Ensign June 2009, Sugar beets and the worth of a soul.)

Walt Disney quote ....

"If you can dream it, you can do it! Remember always that this whole thing started with a dream and a mouse"

Now one week .................

I am so excited as we are FAST approaching the wedding!!! It doesn't seem possible as I reflect ( such a big word) on the past 23 years since C.J. joined our family! We have been through many, many trials and struggles but with the Lord's love and guidance, we have made it! How do people do it without the Gospel? It is beyond comprehension and I for one am so grateful to have parents who through THE most difficult time in their married life found the true religion and listened to the messages the elders had for them. I am so blessed Heavenly Father didn't give up on us since we lived in Maine and moved to Arizona and my mother would SLAM the door on the missionaries from sea to shining sea.
I know my Father lives and loves me too!!!!

Two weeks .......

We have about two weeks until our family becomes 16!!!! I am so excited and I know C.J. and Amber will have an awesome eternity!!! I am also realizing this journey is not complete until we decide to follow the Savior and really try to become like Him. We have been given every opportunity to have exactly what Heavenly Father wants us to have and we are the only ones keeping us from obtaining it.
We only have to crasp it!

Lovin' the Sydney-isms!!!

On Monday, June 8th I was in Laveen so Shawna and the kids could take me to the airport for my week stay with Rex. As we were getting ready to kill some time before my flight left, we decided to go to the Tempe Town Lake, Sydney came up to me and said, "Mimi" and pointed to her cheek. Well not giving up the opportunity to get some nurisment I kissed her cheek and discovered it was wet!
Shawna: Mom did you know Choolie licked her cheek?
Mimi: Really? (wiping my lips)
Sydney: (with a shocked look on her face) Ya Mimi, DON'T KISS THE LICK!!!!!!
We all laughed over that comment!!!!

The first day.........

It is the first day of summer vacation 2009 and I was awakened by my sweetheart serving me breakfast in bed!! He is incredible and I feel so blessed to have him as my eternal companion. This vacation is filled with so much excitement and alot of work but I am up for the tasks because only wonderful moments are coming from them!!
Happy Summer Vacation, Mimi!!!!
