the slight tip is me not the pictures!

It's a Good Idea!

Eating your veggies is a good idea, a very, very good idea! My hubby doesn't care much for veggies -well he doesn't care at all for them to be exact. This special diet we've been on , well he has been eating veggies and look what i caught him eating ! GASP!!!! Broccoli - of all veggies this is his least favorite. He continued to eat 2 raw little "trees" of broccoli for about 3 days following this. You laugh but this is big folks! So proud! Look at him - he does look sooo good! In fact he looks HOT!!!

Another good idea and this one is all mine. I decided that we had to get rid of some of this candy around here. Dangerous for dieting! For family night we made candy grams for the kid's primary teachers and some good friends of ours who let us swim in their pool all summer!

Dear Sister Tootsie & Brother Sugar Daddy............ you know how a candy gram goes.

Got any good ideas? HEE HEE!

Love ya big!!! Real Big!

CSI Boise

So it seems as though some hodlums were passing through our neighborhood at about 2 this morning. They came across a very large rock and decided that our innocent little house looked like a great target. This is when Jared and I were awakened by breaking glass. We both sat up out of a dead sleep and ran to different areas of the house to see what had happened. They had thrown the rock into Zander and Gavin's window. As you can see from the pictures the glass landed on Zanders pillow and all over his bed really. I believe whole heartedly in the tender mercies of the Lord and know that at this time prayers of safety for our children were answered because Zander couldn't have been curled up any closer to the wall and none of the glass hit him. I am sad that there are people who don't think about the reality of the things that they do and that they could have seriously injured both of my boys. I cried to the police officer when he arrived to get a statement. He wanted to know Zander's age and if anybody might be out to get us or him. We of course said No and then told him the ages of our children. My good husband stayed up the better part of the night boarding up the window and laying on the couch worrying about the incident. I cried in my bed while I looked at my sleeping boys who were safe.

I know that living the gospel gives added protection and that Angels can watch over your house just as they do the temples. I am grateful for things like this that can really add awareness to how much the hand of the Lord is in our lives.

Love bunches
