Thought for the Day


"Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us - even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever. Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't, for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming."

- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

Yuckies and Cloudyness

Well, today we all got up and started getting ready for church. Things were getting a little crazy frustrating just before it was time to leave. I was trying to print out something for YW, Bret had some Scouting stuff to print as well, the kids were starting to get crazy, Lizzy was getting shakey and nautious from fasting, and suddenly I hear Livvy cough. It was nasty. Then I started thinking about this morning and she's had an excessive runny nose now with the cough - she's sick and I really did't want to pass it to the rest of Primary. So Livvy and I stayed home from church. I think I might be getting the cold too - we'll see.

On a happier note, it's cloudy and on the verge of rain here in AZ! I'm sure everyone is loving it for the SuperBowl. :)
Yep, the SuperBowl is here in Phoenix (just in case you have been alseep in life and don't know)! It's all I've heard about for months now. My main thought has been - I'm so so so so so glad that we don't live in our old house. It is just down the street from the Stadium! BUT then I did see in the news a photo of some famour person (can't remember who) leaving a gas station. It looked a lot like the one I used to frequent VERY often (for my soda fix). So there is a little bit of coolness that comes with being a populer city for a weekend.

Other news - the kids have a talent show coming up. I think we are going to dress the kids up like Orphans (somedays I wish they were) and sing a song to the musical Annie - It's a Hard Knock Life. We'll make up some motions to go with the song too. I sure hope we can pull it all together! :) The kids (mostly Lizzy) has been wanting to perform in various talents shows for a few years now. But that is a lot of work for ME and I wasn't up to it at different times. So now we'll try it. Wish us luck!

Well, I have stuff to do and kids to deal with (they've been a bit naughty today). Take care and have a great week!
