I am Handsome, I am Smart!

BEING IN ''JOSEPH'' TIDBITS:

I'd like to think I could take the time to jot down everything that happened from being in the Stake Musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, but that's just not going to happen. Too many memories have come and left my mind!

So I'm going to jot down tidbits of things about being in it that happened, and are still happening.


- When we quizzed the kids last night, they could name 10 out of 12 sons of Jacob.  Not bad at all.  And when we hinted at the first initial of the two they missed, they got them!

-Caillee Youngberg, Bree Attebury and Cassidy King became some of my kids' favorite NEW people from the play.

-Wray Kunz is now infamously "Joseph".

-We've had many discussions on evil.... and bad choices.... because I was Mrs. Potiphar.

-Grocery shopping today: Girls were singing Go Go down the aisles.  They got several smiles.

-Catelyn and Landon made new friends.

-Who knew that Brooklyn would love center stage so much?  If we couldn't find her after the show, we'd check the stage.  She was there, 99% of the time, as if it her personal dressing room.

-They were bored many times, but once we started performing for a live audience, that ended.

-Brooklyn took to coming with me and my sheep during the opening song, and she loved it and so did I.

-The kids grew to love doing makeup. Well, maybe not Landon so much, but the girls for sure!

Happy Birthday Catelyn!!!

Happy Birthday Catelyn!!!     Yesterday was you last day as a 6 year old.  Here we go for 7!!! I have picked out a few photos that I love of you, Catelyn, and hope that you know how special you are as you look at this post.   You truly are a Daughter of God and are so beautiful.   We are so glad you are a part of our family! *You love to play outside. *You like math, have struggled with reading, and love recess. *You stood with Amanda in that wedding line for 45 minutes.   *You are a girly girl.  Lipstick, makeup, nail polish and perfume make you happy. *You yell a lot.  We are working on an inside voice. * You seem to want to stop sucking your thumb.  *You love the computer. *You love to shop. *You have one year to be ready for your baptism! *When you fall asleep, you are out like a light! *You love your teacher, Ms. Bair. *You need a bigger bike. *You enjoy watching Phineas and Ferb. *You draw people really well, and ...

The Opposite of Christmas Morning

We are having the opposite of Christmas morning at our house.  No toys.  We have one of these for storing toys: And several of these for the same reason: And last night the kids thought dumping them out for the sake of dumping toys would be fun.  This is a major rule breaker in our home.  I have had problems with this in the past, (even Mykalee knows this) and i have told them if it happens again, all the toys will disappear. And last night, after I found out what they had done, the toys have been grounded.  FOR A WEEK.  I hope it's as devastating as possible, so that they will learn I am serious when it comes to dumping toys out. {Also, Brooklyn is the only one who is exempt from this, as she was in bed.  Innocent.} On a side note, we did get the kids this on Friday.  It was time.  They seem to love it.

Catelyn--The Birthday Girl!

She knew.  I told her that she was getting a dress for her 8th birthday.  We tried some on, and fell in LOVE with the one we ended up surprising her with!  Doesn't she look too grown up?   I teared up as I watched 12 more years flash before my eyes as I saw her in this mini-wedding dress.  But it was the one for her.  We knew it. With Grandpa Dean's passing, we received special permission {which Kyle didn't like to have to ask for, because in the church handbook, it specifically says "Members should not ask for special permission to baptize their children. . .blah, blah blah....*Oh!! not that I am making fun of the handbook.  I just don't what it says exactly* I argued back that this was a rare exception, and we should at least ask. {Also, not as rare as I thought-- as I found out Friday night -March 18- that the family who had a viewing going at the same time as ours, at Coltrin's, had a baptism and a funeral in the same day as well! ...
