What now....

Lots of stuff to do and a fried brain do not mix. This is the point that I am at right now.

First of all...
I am trying to finish up my last class but literally have no desire to write a paper.

AND...
Practicum is beginning soon, which will add 10 work hours to my weekly schedule. Hmmm not sure how that is going to work out!

AND...
The dryer stopped working this weekend (that is all I need to say about that I am sure you can imagine the fun this entails).

Friends coming for the weekend (very exciting BUT the house is trashed.)

Grass is growing like weeds (as usual) but of course I missed the Monday window of sunny weather to get it mowed so not sure when that will get done.

Plus late nights, not enough sleep and zero ability to concentrate.

One good thing though I did decide which place I was going to do my practicum and internship at...I start the 30th! Please pray for me :/

Ummm Happy Wednesday?!

Spring Break and beyond...

We didn't go anywhere exciting this past week but it was probably the most eventful Spring Break EVER! I wish that I could share with you all the exciting things that are happening at my house but I will just have to wait a little longer. I hope that everyone had a great Spring Break.

Emily's Blessing

Emily Bristol De Silva was blessed February 5, 2012. The day was as close to perfect as it could get. There were a lot of people there to celebrate this special day. Julie, Rod and family, Jeremy, Meg & family, Crysta, Ryan & family, Jason's mom, sister, niece and a close friend and his wife. Of course mommy, daddy and the girls and granny.


We were a little nervous that Emily would cry during her blessing so we had everyone praying that it would go well. She didn't cry at all even though she was awake the whole time.


Rod gave the blessing, it was so beautiful. It talked about all the people that loved her that she could look to for examples. The spirit was very strong.

As you can see, Emily wore the most beautiful dress on her blessing day. Meg's sister Amy volunteered to make it for her, it was perfect.


There were so many sweet testimonies born during the meeting that Emily was blessed in. Many of them spoke of the sweet spirit that Emily has and that her blessing brought.


What a blessing it is to have this little girl be part of our family. She is the sweetest, cutest, happiest baby and we all love her very much.
