Canada and Palmyra

Last week was action packed with a wedding, driving, Niagara Falls, and Palmyra NY. It was alot of fun but I missed my other half and kiddos. Luckily my husband is a more than capable man and was able to keep everything under control while I was gone. In fact I think he did a better job than I do. I'm not sure that is fair but it is the way it goes! :)

I have been incredibly blessed to see the sealing of all of my siblings. They all have managed to find wonderful spouses for themselves! Joe was so happy on his wedding day. I am sure he and his wife will have a wonderful life together.
Niagara Falls was beautiful!


Palmyra was a very spiritual place. I really enjoyed seeing some of the Church's historical sites and hearing the testimonies of the sister missionaries in the area.

I'm a Survivor

1. 6 days without my wife (at her brother's wedding in Canada)
2. 6 days with just the kids
3. Gave them baths twice this week
4. Took them to work for 3 hours one day
5. Still was able to work from home all week
6. Went to the store twice this week
7. No injuries
8. No sicknesses
9. Fed the kids at least 2 meals everyday (never succumbed to the fast food itch)
10. House is cleaner now than when Kristina left (there's a joke in there somewhere)

Either I'm just completely awesome or my kids are well-behaved.

Things to improve on next time:

1. Take the kids to the pool (I hate swimming)
2. Take the kids to the park
3. Do the laundry (sorry, it slipped my mind)

New News

Obviously I am not great at keeping up with our blog.

We have had a busy few months. School ended, we moved further south, visits with family...next week I have a wedding to go to in Canada! :) Then school will be starting again.
I will try to post some new pictures soon!

Winter Fun

We have SNOW! Usually NC gets about one decent snowfall a year...at least according to my childhood memories. Luckily, it is the weekend, so there was plenty of time to prepare and we have no reason to go out on the roads. The kids are loving all the snow. Here are some of our pics from our snowball fight and sledding earlier today. On a side note, I made all the hats and scarves that we are wearing! :)
