Texas is our first child to have cavities and yesterday we went to the dentist to get them filled. I got her ready before hand by telling her that the only pain she might feel would be when the dentist gives you medicine so you won’t hurt so much and that it would not be… Continue reading Cavities

Texas’ Book Report
This is a picture of Texas’ second book report this year. She had to read her book and then make a float that represented what happened in the book. She wanted to choose an easy picture book at first but I made her choose one that had more words and not so many pictures. She… Continue reading Texas’ Book Report
Sam’s Broken Arm
Last week Nancy sent the kids over to the playground for a few hours. They’ve been off track for a couple of weeks now and are driving Nancy nuts so she takes every opportunity to get them out of the house. When I got home from work, Sam was in house bawling that he hurt… Continue reading Sam’s Broken Arm
The Cadet Chapel
This weekend I was in Colorado Springs on a business trip. We had some free time on Sunday and decided to go up to the Air Force Academy (about 5 minutes away from the hotel). I was worried that they might not let us in but there was a big sign on the freeway that… Continue reading The Cadet Chapel
Executive Secretary
Today I was sustained as the Executive Secretary. Although I don’t think this calling will be terribly difficult, it will definitely be time consuming. I started off my first week with a bang – I didn’t get home until 3:45 from 9:00 a.m. church. Of course, it could be worse. The Bishop was at Stake… Continue reading Executive Secretary
Science Fair
We finally finished up both Emily and Anne’s science fair projects tonight. Anne did all her researcch and experimentation a few weeks ago and made her display a couple of days ago so she wasn’t rushed at the end. I forced Emily to change projects relatively late in the game so she needed every last… Continue reading Science Fair
Baptism Day
Today was Caroline’s baptism. While the older girls were excited for their baptism day, Caroline was particularly so. She has spent the last two weeks exhibiting her excitement as only Caroline can (annoying squeaking noises, pestering with questions, clapping hands and wiggly fingers, etc.) She was especially looking forward to getting a new set of… Continue reading Baptism Day
Diana’s Check up
Today we took a trip up to Salt Lake for Diana’s six month check up after surgery. I left a good hour before the appointment thinking that there would be bad traffic this morning because we were expecting a storm. Luckily for me the storm hadn’t started yet and the morning commute was winding down… Continue reading Diana’s Check up
Gingerbread Houses
Before Christmas I was doing my regular grocery shopping when I saw that they had on sale the gingerbread houses that come in a box and you just have to put together and decorate. I thought at the time that the kids could make them the night of the W. Christmas party at our house.… Continue reading Gingerbread Houses
W. Family Party
The W. Family Party is the annual Christmas party with all of my aunts and uncles, cousins, cousins kids, etc. The party has grown so big that it hasn’t been held at anyone’s house for the past few years and likely never will be again. I’m not sure what kind of politics were involved in… Continue reading W. Family Party
