My parents are preparing to downsize and have been going through things. These were a few gems I loved. – Mom’s preschool bag she used when I was little. It has a zipper along the bottom (I’m guessing for the stabilizer board). It’s just cool… plus the vintage fabric is totally back in style now. […]
Amy & family stopped by for a quickie visit. Jim was just released from his mission and thus they headed to Idaho… and Utah from Arizona to spend time with family and to run errands at BYU for Jim. My kids know how much Amy loves them. It’s cute how much they adore her. Funny […]
We’ve got: Truman: Captain Hook’s Apprentice Hannah: Wendy Liza: Tiger Lily Max: Peter Pan (of course!) Abe: Captain Hook the Fierce I laid down in the morning after my shower and Hannah put together this acting group to put on the play of Peter Pan. I don’t know that the actual drama panned out, but […]
Miss Hannah, Grandma Price, and I went to Mary Poppins musical at the Hale Centre Theater in West Valley. It was a delightful production! A gal I visit teach, Amy Keeler, was the cover photo for Mary Poppins though she wasn’t in this one. Isn’t she darling! The Theater-in-the-Round was super interesting and the sets […]
This happened today … at the same time. Amazing Sibling Love! Hannah & Truman have been “Buddies” since last summer when we went to Seattle. He responds best to her helping, though lately he even fights her. Sigh… Loved watching her play the piano while he watched. And Abe & Liza… Abe has been making […]
I know – It’s weird to take so many pictures of food. But I’m quite in love with all the fresh fruit/veggie colors this summer. It’s been a delight (though an expensive delight) to have so much fresh colorful food in the fridge. I’m realizing there is a big difference to eating pure sugar in […]
We headed to the canyon this afternoon to seek out cooler temperatures… and enjoy some s’mores over a fire…. in the mountains. Only – fire restrictions didn’t allow fires. Sigh… So we ate s’mores chilled version (which are quite hard to manage actually). The kids enjoyed exploring in the freezing cold stream. I don’t know […]
I’ve been wanting to try Jamberry Nails for a while. Seemed like something fun for summer toes… and for Hannah. My friend Lindsey is a consultant and I decided to have a party and invite girls/moms from the 8th ward. We had 8 or 9 come and it was fun to chat and enjoy fresh […]
We just finished using the Gospel Principles manual for Family Home Evening Lessons. We started on it a few years ago. We didn’t really have any system… we’d use it when we didn’t have another topic/lesson in mind or prepared. There were some times when Jimmy would prepare a lesson from Gospel Principles and I […]
Because – ya know – watching part of Star Wars Episode I is a super FHE Bonus Activity … teaches good & evil… uh… ok. Honestly – so grateful that good will win in the end. Hannah & I liked this quote by Yoda. My thoughts on this topic: Is our focus on the good […]
