Bye Bye Primary....

Today I got released from my primary calling. 3rd Counselor. Mixed feelings, I'm really going to miss the Kids and the funny things you see them do and say. I'm Really excited for the new presidency. I walked in and happy to see the faces of those takin on the new challenge. They'll do great. And so I was able to attend Gospel Doctrine and Relief Society for one week. NExt week I will be in Young Womens. AAaaaacCKK! Not sure I'm ready for this. Teens have attitude and are mouthy.... think they are soo smart. Broither Hoggan Gave a very nice blessing after sacrament that put me at ease so hopefully I'm up for the new Challenge myself.... So whenever my Nieces come to visit we can go to Young womens together. Well except Syd she's too old....and Charley might want to be with mom.

Dr. Appt. Today

Saw our Dr. today. It was a long time waiting. The wait was worth it. She got right to the fun stuff. We got to hear the beating heart of the fetus... She said he had a good heartbeat for a "little guy." The first person that knew was Cathy. She kept calling Mike during the appt. So she was first to know. I called Baba and he was confused what I was talking about....then he asked "is it a Boy?" He was disapointed when I told him not yet. Each time I give him an update he always asks the sex of the baby. Not for about 12 more weeks will we know. It's hard not knowing what we are preparing for in more than one way!

Changes

Carolyn is very excited to get her showroom up and running. Since it was supposed to be done a month ago. The past week she has been coming home tired and dirty from working in new construction. This next week should be a little easier. Putting the displays up and organizing all the stuff....stuff and more stuff. Hopefully she will be able to controll her staff of 2!

Carolyn is also having big changes in her eating habits. She is picky nowa days. She eats bland foods...a common staple is the frozen burritos. Anything with strong flavor or smell seems to make her tummy upset. Hang in there babe!

Garlic Festival in Gilroy

This weekend it the Gilroy Garlic Festival. Lots of food prepared with garlic, garlic and More GARLIC! Over the last year we have become Garli-holics. Adding it to our main dishes, bbq sauces, side dishes...........yuummm!

For the past few weeks I have had an aversion to Garlic. The smell, the taste, and oh the smell.....! When we went to the Santa Cruz boardwalk we had some yumm garlic fries. well not so yumm for me.....So sad I was really looking forward to the Festival.

Nice Truck

Blaah Blaah blah

Do you think Blogs with kids and Babies get more viewing than those without?
Do you think there are more comments made about kids and babies?
I had this theory a little while ago, so I posted a picture of my niece Charley. No comments, I was surprised, I was wrong. Maybe that will change.

Kristin's Wedding Weekend

Oregon here we come... this weekend was full of activites. We ate at the mongolian BBQ, Busters BBQ, the rehersal dinner was catered by a BBQ place, then Kristins wedding food was great too, Another BBQ on Sunday at Cathy's. WE ate well this weekend came back a few pounds thicker!

It was the first time in 5 years that all the family was together in one place. Still didn't get a chance for a complete family photo. But plenty of Photos to remember how much fun we all had.

Visiting Jamey's house then hiking down to the Santiam and sticking our feet in the freezing cold water. The water level was much higher than last time. So we had to huddle on the edge of the bank.

Michael took the kids on tractor rides. He even let them steer around the property. It was a warm day, otherwise we would have been riding the tractor all day. Staying at Mom's house was an experiece to remember. 7 adults, 4kids, and MINI!. The little girls got along just fine. Deegan felt left out now and again. but Maison played with him. Those pictures didn't turn out so great.
At the Wedding there was Dancing all night long. The flower girls and Deegan dominated the Dance floor with their twirls and swirls. Then the big girls came out to Dance! Kristin and her friends were able to get Joyce out on the Dance floor for some line dancing. We all had fun....Participating and watching..
