A Good Day


Today there were plenty of signs of a good day
  • Sweaty running clothes
  • Sun-kissed cheeks
  • Ice cream dribbled shirts
  • Orphan looking kids
  • Murky bath water and then clean smelling kids
  • Children passed out on the couch before 7pm
  • Pink pedicured piggies...they deserve it after last weeks pounding

Perfect

Saturday, we went sailing

on the inner harbor


and then, we played in the fountains.
"Put me back in the water...NOW!"

PS: You probably didn't notice the top of Daniel's tighty whitey's showing in the fountain picture. Yes, you read right...tighty whitey's! My mom used to get so mad when my brother let his unders show when he was a younger whipper snapper. I will probably get on my kids' case for letting their underwear show when they get older too, but for now, let them show! That little gray elastic strip with white cloth attached is a trophy of adulthood. It is an emblem of a won battle, and yes, I am proud of it.

A Little More About Me

This is the 207th post about my life. I am in love with life. I love sharing my life with you. But in 207 posts, I have failed to mention why I am so in love with life, and that is because I have hope in the ability to make my life better through Jesus Christ. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I feel timid sharing my faith with the world, but it is knowledge I wish the whole world had. I don't know why I get so scared to share my faith, but I don't want to be scared anymore. So here is a little video clip I want to share. And more information can be found here.

Where Were You Today?

April 15th found us down at the state house for Tax Day Tea Party. It felt good to get out.

Christian had a brilliant idea...you should be taxed according to who you voted for, and make people put their money where their mouth is. If that were the case, I would send Obama his bill, because I voted for Ron Paul.

Happy Easter


Saturday Chores

How do you get rid of three weeks worth of weeded trees and brush? Make a 5 hour long bonfire of coarse.
