I Love to See the Temple

The primary for the ward had an activity at the temple today. Christian, Jayna and Kaitlyn got to go see a little bit of the inside of the temple and tour of the outside. They learned a few facts about the Dallas temple also.

Jayna was having a pouting session because she could explore the grounds by herself.

Dallas Temple: Angel Moroni is 7 feet tall. Just ask Christian a cheated and looked in the facts book the leaders had at the temple.

Our Mother's Day!

These pictures are from Mother's Day. David and Tanya invited the Walkers over for dinner and dessert. The Walkers are in our ward and live down the street.

The gang doing their best pose.

Kaitlyn and Lindsey aren't they totally cute.

Ethan favorite past time trying to tackle Christian. Christian such a great big brother he lets him.

I was trying to take a picture of just Kaitlyn and Lindsey and Jayna snuck in the pose.

We tried the famous star pose. the little ones didn't quite understand but they were glad to be in the picture.

This picture speaks for itself.

Birthday and Ethan viedos

These are late to post but they made it on...

Bath Time

No, this water is not dirty. It is PURPLE!

Kaitlyn and I went to Wal-Mart yesterday. We found crayons to use in the bath tub and tablets that color the bath water. The products are all no-toxic. They had a lot of fun. I would suggest clear it of with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser it works better then just water.

Park Day

I decided to take to Ethan and Kaitlyn to the neighborhood park today. They really needed to get out. Kaitlyn also learned how to pump her legs on the swing today. So now she can swing by herself. We also went to the pond at the front of the neighborhood to see if we could see the turtles, ducks and frogs. We kind of saw a frog it jumped quickly into the water before we could get a really good look at it. But the ducks and turtles weren't out this time. One of these days I will get pictures of the turtles.

Shoes! Shoes!

So you know that a 3 year old is up to something when they are quite. Usually it is not good but Kaitlyn was trying to be helpful. She went into my room and took every single pair of my shoes and piled them into this basket. They were all balanced very well.

I am 2!!

Here I just took some pretty funny pictures of Ethan. So I am sharing them with you enjoy.

Happy Birthday to Me! April 11th

Don't mind the hair Jayna said she did it but I didn't know she did it that way. Thanks girly girly.

Ethan and Kaitlyn helped me blow out the candles. You know because I had to many candles on the cake.

Sick! Sick!

Well I thought it was time to update everyone on how Texas is treating me. It is nice to have a bigger room but I still don't have enough room for my shoes. You ask how the job is going this Monday i well be putting in my two week notice and looking for a center who has the same philosophy i was taught in school and at the job in CA. The center where i am at now is is actually violating a lot of licensing produces for the state of Texas. I am looking into trying to find out how to report it. I am not sure how the center opened in the State passed them. I have a good job lead right now. I turned in an application to a private preschool here and they should be contacting me this week. The principle there is so funny. She asked me why did you pick Kids R Kids with your experience and education. I told her it was the only interview i had and I din't know much about the place. Well in my new job hunt. I know what question to ask to not sale myself short. Wish me luck.

Well I a light note maybe not that light. Wednesday I caught a pretty bad cold (don't worry dad I ran fast). Thursday night I asked Tanya about going to an Urgent care without insurance and how much it would cost. I thought I was getting an ear infection but i was going to wait a few days to making sure. Friday morning my ear felt a little better but by that afternoon. The left ear hurt like none other. It was time to go to the doc. To bad I can't prescribe my on meds b/c i knew what is was. The doc looks in the ear and says you have a bad ear infection. On the way to the pharmacy my ear is starting to pop and ache bad. I almost cried. Haven't had an ear infection that bad in along time.

So exciting weather has been going on here. In the last two weeks we have had two tornado warnings with the sirens going off. Last week at 4 am and one this last Thursday at 10 pm. The 4 am one no of us knew what the siren sounded like so we weren't sure it was one until after it happened. It is not as loud as the one in Cheyenne. It was kind of mono tone. But Thursday night we herd it so we went to the closet under the stairs for about 15-30 secs. The older kids were a little scared but quickly got over it.

Well that is the exciting news for me.

Simple Pleasure Tag

No particular order.

2. Spending time at the farm in Malad, ID with family.
