Dairy Ambassador Collage

I thought this collage turned out so cute, and it took me so much longer than I wanted to spend on it, so I had to share. Now I just need to figure out how to get it uploaded to be developed before Rachel's program on Saturday.

Baby #6 Due October 3rd!!

Our family is excited to announce that we will be having a baby this Fall!! Hannah saw the baby countdown ticker on somebody's blog, and really wanted to have it on our blog. We were just going to add that to our blog without telling anyone, and see if anyone noticed.
Anyway, we are all excited. Hannah told me that she thought I wouldn't have anymore kids because it had been so long since I had a baby. Maybe some of you thought the same thing. Trevor just keeps saying, "Me want a baby boy."

New Years Questions 2009

I did have the kids fill these out sometime in January, but I'm just now getting around to posting their answers.

This one is Kyle's. He was having some issues with a kid named Conner, who rides his bus. I think they are getting along better now.

Church History Museum Children's Display

After seeing the temple, we went to the Church History Museum Children's Display. The kids would have stayed for the entire day-they had so much fun. Their favorite part was the Nursery, where they could dress and weight their babies, and feed them, and fill out a birth certificate for them.

They also like dressing up for the nativity.

Mine and Kyle's favorite part was learning about how the tabernacle was built.

We Love To See The Temple! January 16, 2009

The kids were out of school that Friday, so we got tickets on-line and went to the temple. My kids have been able to go to the Rexburg and Twin Falls Temple Open Houses, but Garrick was not able to come with us either of those times. It was great to all be there as a family.
OK to be completely honest - it was not the most spiritual experience of our lives. On the way there Trevor threw up in the car (the reason he is not wearing his church clothes). Then Garrick's foot and knee were hurting him, so I tried to hold Trevor most of the time. I let him down to walk up the stairs, and then I was answering one of Rachel's questions while Trevor took off. Garrick went to grab him, and stepped off the step wrong and twisted his ankle. Needless to say Garrick was not very happy with me for letting Trevor run loose. I do think the spirit returned though when we were in the Sealing Rooms and a man bore testimony of eternal families. We were able to look into the mirrors and see our family go on forever.

Garrick's mom and sister came with her two girls Aspen and Emma.

We are so blessed to have so many temples close by. At Stake Conference Our Stake President told us we have 17 temples close enough that we could drive to them, go through a session, and drive back home to sleep on our own bed that night. He asked what we will sacrifice to make it to the temple more often.

Dairy Ambassadors Utah State Aggies Basketball

Gosner Cheese sponsors a Basketball tournament for Utah State each December. The Dairy Ambassadors get to help for three nights in a row. December 29, 30, and 31. They got to go out on the floor during the timeouts and half-times and throw out balls and t-shirts. On the last night they were introduced during half-time. We had fun going to all the games!
