Proud of myself!

We went to a ward party tonight. For those of you who don't know what that is, It is when our church gets together to eat and have some kind of activity. It was fun. We had Sloppy Joes, Potato Salad and Beans. We also had different kinds of cakes for dessert. So anyways everyone signs up to bring something that is planning to come. I happened to sign up for potato salad. So I made my mom's potato salad that we always had at family cookouts. The only problem is that I didn't have any chili peppers so I used Jalapeno peppers. I thought it would give it a good flavor which I guess is did. Well I didn't know that they would be judging the food until we got there. And guess what I won first place! It didn't matter that Jeff was a judge because he didn't vote for the one I made because he doesn't like the mustard or the pickles. So anyways I thought I would share cause I am proud of myself.

Brady's Blessing

Image
Sunday was a very special day for our little family. Jeff was able to Bless Brady. It was great because Trin and Sam came from Utah for a visit and Sam was able to stand in the circle. I was a little worried about Brady sitting still during the blessing. But when they put their hands on his head he sat very still and kept his arms folded the whole time. It was also very special because Jeff's Sisters, his mom, his Aunt Tricia and her husband, and his Aunt Ellen with her family were all there too. The Primary Program was also on Sunday. It was so sweet and the spirit was definatly with us all day. Brady really loved having Trin and Sam here for a visit. He calls Trin , "Ninny" and Sam, "Ninny's Dada" or "Am". Getting ready for church. Family Kissses!

Out Smarted Again!

Image
This first picture is of my kitchen table. I had to put my chairs up like this because I guess my lovely little boy is in the stage where he likes to use the kitchen chairs to climb on top of the counter. He gets into the cabinets and into various other things that we put out of reach so he will not hurt himself or overdose on Hershey kisses. But I guess it was said that, "If there's a will there is a way" and my son is full of will. So I took a picture of him in the act of trying to unlock the door to get out. He is standing on a milk crate that is normally filled with toys in his room. Notice the very pleased look on his face. Well he wasn't so happy when I took him off the crate and put it away so he can't use it. He through a typical terrible two temper tantrum and stormed off to his room. I am sure he is plotting a new plan as I sit and type this story. Please pray for me and my loony 2 year old. I am not sure I am going to make it to his 3rd bir...
