New Heights

Oh Yeah, that's my boy.

Jon has taken up Volleyball 
and well, you can see he is dominating. 

We are so proud of his hard work and perseverance. 

It is an absolute joy to watch him soar to

New Heights.

If you're wondering what that is on the face of his competitors...

It's Fear.

Now, I've heard of co-sleeping...

but this just seems

Ridiculous!

Me, minus a few brain cells.

 Tonight at dinner Vee asked me,

"mom, why do you have on 

two different earrings?"

Yep.

That's how things have been around here

lately...

Friday Flashback

The Four Musketeers

1998

Mike & I met at BYU in Provo, married and lived there while he finished his degree. 

My sister Lori & her husband Dwayne also met at BYU, married and lived there while completing their degrees.

We had our first babies within weeks of each other & our second babies within 6 months of each other.

Our kids went to the same babysitter during our working/school years.

JT and Chan attended the same preschool.

We lived nearly next door for several years.

We shared vacations, holidays, birthdays,

happiness, heartache & many "firsts".

Our boys were best buddies, partners in crime, inseparable.

Laughing in my Sleep

I think I've said it before...

I love sleeping babies. 

Mr T never fails to give me a 10:30 

(okay, in my dreams... more like 11:30) 

giggle as I check on him before I go to bed each night.

i LOVE

having the teenagers crash my pad

for an impromptu

However, when the party involves an impromptu gorilla showing up and scaring the knickers off my little peeps...

I must draw the line.

Because, believe it or not

I Do Not Love 

having 3 extra bodies sleeping in my
