Week 4

I need to stay up with this project. Because last year I got behind. I still have to do 1 more week for 2009. I need to put the pictures on a different thumbdrive to work on them.

3 for 3

Last night my sweetheart to me out on a date. Which was very nice we went to a new restaurant named Whiptail Grill. It is is in the Boomer's spot they are down in Springdale in the Summer but since it is Winter they are going to try up here. They are down by Zion. Well we were there I had thier Spaghetti squash enchiclida with Goat cheese. I have never had this combination before. It was very good. Just the service was very slow to bring out the food and I also tried a new dressing for my salad. We had a good time.

January Ensign

The Ensign format is different but had some very powerful talks. The talk from Elder Jeffery R. Holland. The Best is yet to be. Touched my heart.I loved when he said Faith is for the future. Faith builds on the past but nevrer longs to stay there. Faith trusts that God has great things in store for each of us and that Christ is truly is the the"high priest of good things to come" (Hebrews 9:11).
Keep your eyes on your dreams, however distant and far away. Live to see the miracles of repentance and forgiveness of trust and divine love that will transform your life today and tomorrow, and forever. That is a New Year's resolution I ask you to keep.
What an up lifting talk.
Try to do better and have faith.

Read the Old Testament

I just finished Deut. and I learned that it is so important to keep the commandments. I just love the scriptures we are so blessed to have them in our lives. I am so glad that I know that God lives and loves each one of his children. I am so glad that we have scriptures that teach of his great plans for us. So if you need a pickup the bible is a great place to start.

Making heart shapped crayons

I have lots of broken crayons and thought this would be a great project for Jacob and I to do. So we put the greens together and the reds and pinks. It was fun we heated the oven to 265 and baked for 12min we were watching and then put them in the freezer for about 15 min. They turned our really good. Jacob kept asking when are we going to eat them. So we will have to make cookies for our next project together.

Weeks 1-3

I thought I would get a jumpstart on this new year. So that I will not be behind. It has been fun to have the kids take some pictures to. It is fun to see what they see.

Weeks 1-3

Goal 2. Project 365

I did the pages for week 3,4,5,6. But I can not find them so I had to redo them. I I just have to work on 2 more weeks. So excited to see the whole year done. And anxious to start for 2010.

Be more creative for birthday's

For Janice Cox. Emma and I wanted to do something special for her. She is my friend and Emma's activity day leader. She is so amazing she is always prepared for activity day. And she is so sweet and

kind. She has been an awesome leader for Emma. So we made the flowers with the circut. And made Blueberry muffins.

Project 365 for 2009

Yes I am behind in getting my posts up. I can not find my weeks 4-7. I have no clue where they are. I am still looking for where they are. I know I have done them. Because I have checked them off several times.

Try Different foods

How about a Shrimp taco. We took the kids out to Costa Vida. And I want to try new things so I ordered the Shrimp taco. It was good and different. I loved the mangos in it and the shrimp was good. I always love Shrimp. The lime juice was good when it was squeezed on. So go try a Shrimp taco today if you like Shrimp give it a try. I was glad I tried it. But I think I will stick to a salad or a burrito.

Go on a Date with Jonathan

We went out to Costa Vida. My favorite is the sweet pork burrito. With our friends the Cox's and the Messers. We had a good time talking.
There is a great deal at our Costa Vida you can get 2 meals and 2 drinks and 2 movie tickets for a great price. So great idea to go to Costa Vida. It was also fun to see so many of our other friends going out to the dinner and the movie. Then we went to one of my new favorite movies the Blind Side. I loved it I cried I laughed and remembered all of my blessings. We are so blessed and what an inspirational story. This was the best. So if you have not seen it. Go out and see it. A 5 star movie all the way. I am so glad I got to go with Jonathan it is always so nice to be with him and have good food and watch a movie.

Watch all Audrey Hepburn movies.

Today I got to see How to Steal a Million. I just love her clothes and her style. I just love when she looks at her male actors and says How brilliant. It makes me smile all the time. So I thought this was great fun.

Visit Teach

Yes this was the message. And I did not give this to my sisters. It came out after I got done. But we were able to go visit 2 sisters on wednesday and one today. I think visiting teaching teaches you service. I think I am really suppose to listen to one sister but I am having the hardest time visiting her. So maybe if I stopped to listen it would actually be better for both of us.
My partner just was made as a supervisor so she likes to go out early. Which is good. I like to get it done early to. Then the sisters know you are thinking about them. I hate when your visiting teachers want to come on the last day of the month. I rather them not come at all.
I really learned about self reliance is to do with all areas of our lives not just food storage. Love what they said that when you are not full that you can not really help people out. Which is so true. Well if you have not gone out go out and see your sisters.

Read the old Testament

Well I started this goal back up . Callie had a button her blog from a women that talks about how important the women in the scriptures are. I love having something new to search for in my scripture reading. I was supposed to have the old and new testament finshed before my birthday. But I seriously missed so many months. No motivation. Because I read the BofM and Doctrine and Covenants and Pearl of Great Price last year. Our Stk pres couselor does this every year. I thought it would be cool if I did this to. So I am now back on track. My family and I are reading the Bof M each night. Which I love when J shares and the kids are learning something and we talk about it. I love when my kids actually get what we are trying to teach them. It has been a great motivator to get them to read. So this goal is in progress. I am in Deut

Daily List

Well I have always wanted to do this . But just got a better start for the new year. I have been writting it before I go to bed . I think I am getting a bed night rest. Because things are written down. There is so much I can accomplish when it is on a list. I love marking things off. When the kids are home for a break or on a saturday I make a list for them. It must come from my mom when ever I go home there is a list that she needs to be done. If I do this maybe I accomplish these goals with them in mind. I also printed up my list and put them on my closet door. So far so good.

Fast

Yes . Yesterday I was able to fast. For some reason fasting is so hard for me. But we are trying to teach the children to be obedient and our ward has asked us to double our fast offering. So I thought I need some humility as well. It is harder now that we have church at 1 p.m. But I was glad I did it. I did have this as private. But Callie now has it in on her blog. So I thought I could put it on my blog to.
