The Boy stole the remote this morning. I don’t know what it is about the remote but he snags it whenever he possibly can. I caught him in the kitchen with it just having a grand ol’ time. He didn’t care that there’s no TV in the kitchen. We have to be careful though, because …

Yogurt Island & Hatch Green Chile
When I went to the training in Pala I told G that if she was really good for mommy, we would take her to Yogurt Island. In the days after I got back we had cake for my birthday and Halloween candy so Yogurt Island got moved to the back of the list, not removed, just …
Squint – Brigham’s happy face
Out of respect for Katherine Saubel’s (a very important member of the native community) passing the tribe closed down at three today and will be closed all day tomorrow. I ended up leaving just before four and picked up the kids on my way home. Dar was at an OB appointment, I’m so glad that …
The Cotton Patch
Went to my Grandma’s house today to visit and pick up a chair that she gave me. I had the kids and my mom with me so we stayed for a good while and let the kids explore the fun stuff outside and all the wide open spaces. I think the pictures tell this story …
Dancing in the rain
I love rainy days! It wasn’t actually all that rainy but it was really cloudy. The Desert is always sunny so an overcast day is a welcome change. You know who else loves the rain… Ginger! That girl loves a good puddle jump and any excuse to don her ladybug rain gear. I have a …
Now Dar is a sicky-poo!
Dar stayed home sick today. She finally got the bug that Ginger brought home from pre-school and it’s really doing a number on her. She was throwing up all day. I know that pictures have accompanied all the sicky-poo posts of the sicky-poo person but I’m pretty sure Dar would kill me if I tried …
Kicking a ball at the park
Half day at work today. YAY! We did a service project at Church recently and since then I have stored a trailer full of orange tree clippings in my garage. Today I finally had the time to get rid of them. I had to move them to the back of my truck before taking them …
Halloween
Today is Halloween! My most favorite holiday of the year. I like dressing up and Ginger gets so excited about going around in costume. I dressed up in my pirate costume again for work (for the kids… no, really, it was… whatever!) and I have to say, my eyeliner made quite the impression on some …
Now I’m a sicky-poo
I woke up sick today. Bummer! I spent some time last night preparing for my 2-5 minute lesson about The Book of Jacob and didn’t get to give it. I know lots more about The Book of Jacob now and I finally feel like I have a good grasp on the meaning behind the allegory …
Heart Boiled Eggs
We were planning to go to a pumpkin patch today to take pictures of the kids, but it didn’t happen. Instead, Grandma Sue came over and hung out with the youngins and they had a great time. Dar and Tara went grocery shopping in the afternoon so I decided to do this thing hard-boiled eggs …
