Family Fun.com

Here's an Idea of the cake I want to make.
I have been looking on the internet for good ideas for my sons birthday (Its going to be Pirate Themed) and have discovered this website that I love. http://familyfun.go.com/

They have the cutest ideas and videos that really help. I definately reccomend looking at this for anything. So cute. Also if anyone is ever doing a Pirate them, or even a Princess theme, go to the Dollar Tree if you have one. They have everything from Goodie bags to masks, to decorations. I cant wait til Peyton's party. Chuck wants to get a Jumphouse but the only thing we could find was Noah's Ark with a huge Elephant hanging out so we may use it and tape a pirate patch over the eye of the elephany and stuff. ( I know that doesn't sound right to do that to the ark, but they didnt have anything else. ) Anyways have a good week.

I love the beach!

Hello all!!! Here are some pics from our yearly trip to Sunset Beach. My families ward goes almost every year since I was in high school and when I heard that they were going this year I told them I was tagging along for the ride. So we brought our family. I finally got to do my most favorate thing in the world, BOOGIE BOARDING! I havnt gone forever, we went in Hawaii but oddly there were no good waves. But this was so much fun!!! I actually saw a bunch of Jelly Fish outside the water but once I was in and found one right next to me floating in the water. I freaked out but couldn't stay out, I just went down the beach and got in a different spot. It was so much fun. Sadly Chuck isnt a water person and told me that he was fine being there for the kids entertainment. I dont care! I had a blast. I love the beach. Well Enjoy the pics.

My Grandpa's Birthday Present

An Awsome Temple Experience




Back in August, Chuck and I decided to go on a date to the temple for our ward temple night. It was awsome! Just so peaceful and me and Chuck had never been closer to one another. Until... while we were in the Celestial Room at the temple, we felt an EARTHQUAKE. I have never seen the chandalere sway as much as it did and as I was holding Chucks hand I was about to rip his arm off as well. It was so scary. We also were there with the stake president whom has a close relationship with my husband. So Chuck made the comment that this is what happens when he and the stake president are in the temple together. President Hawkins overheard that and starting busting up laughing. It was so funny. But it was a great experience. If there was ever a major earthquake again the Temple was where I would want to be. I see it as an exemption.

Very Crafty

Lately I have been in a crafty mood. I dont know if I have mentioned how I have discovered the dollar tree here in Modesto, BUT I LOVE IT. And they have these wooden signs that you can paint and decorate. I had a girls night and bought the girls each a Welcome signs and we all sat around my table and chit chatted away while we painted. It was so much fun. So now I have an idea for all my Christmas presents... yes, score!!!

But I love being crative like that. I have been buying cheap stuff from michaels to paint for fall. I love fall colors and everything. I wish Fall could last longer than Summer. Anyways. I'm totally rambling. Ohhh well I havnt written in awhile and I need to post up pics. I know... have a great day!!!
