Please help me come up with a new name for my blog. I wanted to do the brady bunch because that is what EVERYONE calls my new family. But it sounds too much like my good friend Courtney's blog, the Browny bunch. Any ideas???

PART I:September 12, 2009....Thoughts going through my mind...."I cannot wait for Stake Conference to be inspired, spiritually uplifted, and motivated to be a better mother for my children. To overcome the obstacles in my way. To know my worth in this world. To be a rock for my children. How can I find a way to forget my worries and my challenges and better serve others. Oh and I really,

Tonight I indulged myself with a movie for myself. I watched Julie & Julia. It was a perfect movie for me because it talks about food and self evaluation and well....blogging. This is something I desire to do often yet I don't set aside time to do so. So thank you Julie & Julia for inspiring me to blog this time of year. I really missed it!!!Being so close to the end of the year, I felt it

Last week at the girls' school was spirit week and they had a blast. Here are a few pictures from their crazy hair day and 80's day. I have to admit, it was as much fun for me as it was for them to put their outfits together. I just have to figure out this new program for making collages. This isn't too bad of a start! =)

So I just had to share this amazing story. Lexie is a rock in my life. She has always had a strong testimony of the gospel. She has never been afraid to share her testimony with her friends and I wanted to share this story with you.In October, she became friends with a sweet girl named Myah. and since then, they have had many sleep overs and fun times together. Myah's family was just starting

I tell myself that I haven't blogged because I've been working so hard on my new years resolutions...well not so much the case but I have been busy. Though I have been working on my resolutions. So I am posting them so I can feel proud of my accomplishments thus far.1. Pilate's 20 min, 3 times a week. Definitely not. But I am happy to say I have been going to the gym 3-4 times a week and

I loved my friend April's idea of writing my new year's resolutions down here. Until now I had them written on an untitled document on my computer, not yet even saved. =) guess I hadn't made up my mind on how well I would keep them? So now I've made up my mind and here they are...1. Do my 20 minute Pilate's video 2 times a week. It's a realistic goal and since my hubby and sister are gone, I

What a fun Christmas we had. It's been so good having Daniel home and the girls have soaked up every minute with him. Last night Anelyn was laying in my bed with me and telling me how much she loved Daddy, how she's sad he has to go back to the army, and how much she's going to miss him. I love that they love him and have missed him every bit as much as I have.Siriana was so excited for her

Well I basically haven't written in a month and a half. Hard to believe its been that long. I've been counting down the days til Daniel comes home. We are down to 3 days and I am excited, nervous, anxious, and tired. Excited because...well obvious reasons of not seeing him for the last 3 months and all that that encompasses. Nervous because I wonder how the twins will react to him. Will

Daniel left for his training/schooling on August 21st and I was under the impression that he would be back by Thanksgiving. That would be about 2 weeks from now. But this is the military and I did expect some sort of delay to occur. So of course I wasn't surprised when he was first delayed an extra 3 or 4 weeks in the beginning. Then I figured since his training was delayed, most likely his

From August 07 to October 08So I feel like I have tried really hard this year to be physically fit. I had a miscarriage in early spring at which time it took me about 4 weeks to gain 15 lbs. 7 months later and I've lost maybe 5 lbs. of it. It didn't help with the already added 5-10 lbs of christmas eating. I eat smaller portions now and less sugars and starches than I was before. I load up on

Well, such is the story of my life. I have always loved being a military wife. Obviously the benefits are great. Medical is better than anywhere else. Financially, it gives us comforts. I get to see different places by being stationed somewhere new. I love to explore the world and see what it has to offer. I love Daniel in a uniform. =) Can't go wrong there. It's a job my husband loves and he is

We went to This is the Place last friday. I just wanted to take my girls to show them some of the Church's history but when I called to check times and rates, they said they were doing trick or treating and games. So it was more of a fun trip than eduational. But the girls had a blast. This was Siriana's first time on a pony. She had a fun time but wouldn't let me let go of her. She's so

This one wasn't so fun. Lexie was scared when we went to Weber River off the corner of the 189 and highway 84. It wouldn't have been so bad except we were going under the bridge that the cars were driving on. This was our shortest visit mainly because it was unsafe to bring all the girls out of the car and nobody wanted to hang out under the bridge where it was so loud.

The second location we went to was the Great Salt Lake from Antelope Island. The smell was horrid. Poor Lexie could barely breath in the awesome aroma of buffalo dung. mmm, mmm yummy! But it was fascinating how salty the water was. We tasted water which I think tasted saltier than ocean water. With so much evaporation over the years, where else is the salt suppose to go. The view where we

I love Love Love Science Fair 'Season'!!! I am so excited my children finally get to do science projects for school. And thankfully my children love it as much as I do. The day before yesterday, we spent the day searching for different bodies of water. Lexie's project is to test the different amounts of salt content from different bodies of water. It took us a little over 5 hours to accomplish

So I thought I would tell about what my wonderful husband has been going through. He left on August 21st for processing into the Army and headed to Fort Sill, Oklahoma. There he had a series of lovely shots, doctor appts, dentist appts, and such. Which took him about a week to finish. He then got to spend the next 3 weeks cleaning and marching! Yep, that was pretty much it. Doesn't that sound fun

So it's been a bit tough since Daniel left for training. I have been struggling to decide how I want to spend my time until he returns. Plus, I want to take advantage of living in Utah as much as possible before we have to move. I have been venturing into hiking. I love, love, love it so much. The smells up there...except for these particular bushes that all smell like wet dog. But other than

So I walked into Seagull book store on saturday thinking to myself, "I need a good book to read." I glanced around at a few they had displayed having a hard time deciding which one I wanted to buy. An employee highly recommended this book to me and said it was well worth reading. So I brought it home and proceeded to read the book. It was definitely an easy read but by the time I was done

Lexie is going to be 8 years old!!! I can't believe it. Time has gone by so fast. Her birthday is June 29th and she will be baptized on July 5th at 4pm. We got her dress at the mall in Ogden at a place called Bliss. She tried on probably 30 dresses between the 2 stores. She just kept going back to this style and it looks so beautiful on her. We went to the Ogden Botanical Garden and took pictures

I am going to attempt to write my life story. I hope it will be as close to the truth as possible and that it can also be someowhat entertaining. In my effort of writing my life story I hope to expand my writing ability, understand my successes and failure's, and maybe even grow as a person from the experiences that I have had.

Well, I know several people who blog, especially back home in Washington and I thought I would give it a try. I still don't know how to find groups or friends yet but I hope I will learn. This weekend was my and my husband Daniel's 9 year anniversary. Well, actually it's not until Thursday but we celebrated it this past weekend. It was SOOOO enjoyable. We went to dinner in downtown SLC to a
