Down with the Tooth Fairy!!!!


We are so mad at that tooth fairy!!! She has just crossed the line! M lost her first tooth and (can you believe the nerve) SHE FORGOT to come and take the tooth!!! Then M reminded us she forgot to come and get E's teeth last week....twice!!! Then C reminded me (with a smile) that he still has his tooth under his pillow and it's been under there for the last three days!!! Can you believe it? Then after all that E told me the most disturbing evidence ever!!! He found a whole ton of teeth stuffed in my underwear drawer!!!!! Isn't that gross...can you believe she would have the nerve to go through some one's underwear drawer!!! And leave her gross used teeth in my drawer! I am appalled!! I was so shocked by the evidence I forgot to ask E what he was doing in my underwear drawer.... So does anyone know where you can go to file a complaint against the tooth fairy?

Halloween!!!

This was by far the funnest Halloween we have had! All of my kids are still young enough to Trick or Treat AND old enough to get in and out of the car by themselves. I pretty much just sat in the car like a taxi driver and waited for them to go to each house. They were so cute! "Wow! Sister "so and so" must really like us She gave us big candy bars!" or "Did you hear her say that WE were her favorite trick or treaters!?" Every house they each had to announce what they got at the last house! It was really fun.

Hannah Montana (or Miley Cyrus)


Indiana Jones!


A Zombie Princess


Frankenstein


Dopey and Grumpy ( I don't know who these people are!:) )

We had alot of fun carving pumpkins and going to the Zoo with Grandma and D. (who won the costume contest with his great homemade scuba diving costume) IT was a great Halloween!

What a Great Day!!



E was Baptized this Saturday. It was such a great day! He is such a strong willed child but today he was submissive and humble. It was such a pay day for me. Just to see that HE IS GETTING IT!!!! He definitely felt the spirit and has tried to be "perfect" since he was washed clean.




We were able to have his confirmation in the high council room. The kids loved sitting in the nice chairs at the table while waiting for E to get dressed. It is the rising generation of high councilors!

Our family is growing! I love these times that help me focus on what is important! I need to teach my children the gospel. So they can love the Lord and build their relationship with Him and know him. I love My Heavenly Father and I know that he wants to have a strong relationship with each of them. If I can just guide them to Him I know my Heavenly Father will be grateful to me. How I would love that. I can do it! I can do my very best! And with His help it will happen!!! I love this gospel!





I have to add this part about D... he is so funny! He is laying down on the bench listening to the talks. He leans over and says, "Mom, I think I am car sick" and I tell him that we aren't in a car. He thinks for a minute and says, "Yeah, Mom I think I am just church sick".
