An EXTRA day

 

So what did I do on this EXTRA day? I woke up took a shower, got the kids to school. Didn’t do Payton's hair, oh well. In the car Payton told me that this Saturday was her real Birthday and that I needed to get her a surprise? It was really funny. Went to work for a couple of hours had lunch with Stephanie and Tammy. Went to an appointment at 2:00. Went to Parent Teachers conference with Tristin. Glad he is doing well. Took Gavin to Scouts. Had mutual at my house for 2 hours, we danced and sung songs. Watched the end of the Jazz game. They finally WON. It is currently snowing like crazy. All my kids are asleep and have been for awhile. Scott is on the couch watching TV. I worked on my handouts for church this Sunday. Then pulled out my DONE pile of scrapbook pages that need to be filed in to books and there is seriously 177.  WOW maybe that’s what I should have done today?

He turned 15?? Wait..What!!

 

How is this possible???

I’m still trying to wrap my head around this.

I clearly remember turning 15 myself.

I remember my mom was at her sisters week

my dad made me a homemade card, on blue

construction paper (I still have it).

I got a boom box for my room. It was totally awesome.

but mostly I remember I felt LOVED!!

So now I have a SON who is 15.

A few things he might remember are

we took him out to eat at the Cheesecake Factory,

he got a Camo Jacket, a Skin for his Helmet,

Shot gun Case, Bullets, Cash, Shirts, etc.

I hope enjoys being 15. But mostly I hope

he feels LOVED!!

friends for life

For a couple of years now, we get together will some of our close friends around the new year.

I feel so blessed to have them in my life. We have such a good time together. I just wish we could

get together more often. I know they are always there for me. I have seen them step up to the plate

several times in there neighborhood, in church callings, at school etc. 

I look up to all of them in different ways. They are wonderful, caring, woman, wives, mothers,

and are defiantly some of the BEST people I have ever meet in my life.

I hold all these woman close to my heart and will forever.

magnet board…

 

For New Beginnings this year we are giving each girl a magnet board.

We got them at Home Depot 8x12 for $1.00 (and the guy drilled the holes in top for FREE). Arise and Shine Forth is the YW theme for 2012.  I cut out vinyl using my Cricut. I am in the works of making 40 of these babies. When each girls B-Day rolls around this year, she will be getting 8 magnets with the 8 YW values on them. I hope they like it.
