Return to Blogging!

2010-07-24T23:26:00.000-07:00

I decided I wanted to start blogging again. It's super fun to do and a great way to keep a journal. So, here I go! Because this is going to be my "journal", I'm going to share this quote from President Kimball:

“I promise you that if you will keep your journals and records, they will indeed be a source of great inspiration to your families, to your children, your grandchildren, and others, on through the generations. Each of us is important to those who are near and dear to us and as our posterity read of our life’s experiences, they, too, will come to know and love us. And in that glorious day when our families are together in the eternities, we will already be acquainted.”

We got to go visit the studio where they film Yo Gabba Gabba! It was awesome. They told us that Iron Man and Spider Man were both filmed at the same studio! It was way cool!
There were thousands of colorful little shells that we later realized were little snails!

They were everwhere!

For October break we went to Newport Beach and we stayed in a beach house with the Raines. It was a blast and I wish we could've stayed longer. The beach was beautiful and going to see Yo Gabba Gabba was sweet too! :)

Zack wrote this on our wall: Here lies Sparkey shepherd we

love him. April 2003-march 2009

R.I.P

Last Night my dog Sparkey ran out in the street and got hit by a car. He died instantly. He was all of our best friends and we are gonna miss him terribly. We had him for six years, he was ten human years old. No more dog hair, no more barking at nothing, no more greetings at the door, no more walks with him,no more hot dogs for the little guy, no more dressing him up, and no more separation anxiety. We all love you Sparks!

crazy girl

2008-09-28T21:07:00.001-07:00

the other day amberly from next door was over at my house. i said " Amberly will you smile for me?" but instead i got a bunch of crazy poses from her. After a few pictures of her being silly i said " Will you please smile?" she says to me "no" with a little attitude in her voice. I said "ill give you candy!" her reply: " I already got candy" ( attitude voice with a little head bob thing.) so i told she could have more candy and she finally smiled for about two pictures and then asked for the candy. It was just hilarious how she had a cute little attitude with me. I was cracking up!

This is her candy she got for smiling! :)

What a cute and crazy little girl!

And of course.. he was listening to all the music just like this.. he loves when my mom plays the piano he goes and lays underneath the piano and listens while she plays.

Happy Father's day to my wonderful dad! I love him so much. He is the best Dad any one could ever ask for. I have been so blessed to have a dad like him. There is not enough words to explain how wonderful he is and how much i love him. He means so much to me and i dont know what i would do without him. He can make anybody happy when they are sad and you cant b mad at him for too long. it is just to hard! :) Thanks for being such a wonderful loving Father! I love you SO much!
He loves to take our family fun places and loves to have a good time with his family
He is such a great help to anyone and everyone who needs it.
His favorite day is sunday because he loves to stay in his pjs and play games and watch movies with his family.
I am thankful that he honors his priesthood and can give us all fathers blessings when we need them.
He loves his girls!

My dad is the biggest neat freak you will ever meet!

And I love it!

He is the most hilarious person you will ever meet in your life
HE loves his wife and shows the best example of how a husband should be!

I love my dad so much! He is the best!
