HOW TO GET A BATH WHEN MOM SAYS NO


That's right. Mason wanted to take a bath Friday night. I told him no and sent him in to brush his teeth. He was taking too long and being too quiet so I went to investigate. He had painted himself with lipstick and when I caught him he said "now can I take a bath?"

THE ART OF RAG ROLLING











Ella decided she wanted curly hair for school. So I went old school and rolled her hair in rags just like mom used to. Her hair was almost dry before I finally figured out how to get her hair to stay in the rags and knot it up correctly. She was very happy with the finished product.

HAPPY EASTER











What a beautiful Easter Sunday it was. The 70 degree weather was perfect for an Easter egg hunt with friends. We also enjoyed a yummy meal prepared by the combined culinary talents of yours truly, Kelli Madsen, Gina Udy and Joanna Hamblin. All that and General Conference too. We had a great day. Happy Easter!!

DERBY MANIA







Well another derby has come and gone. Victor and Cooper had fun creating their car this year. The Cub Scouts raced each other as well as the Elder's Quorum. The Reaper as it is so aptly named had a pretty good run. For a more detailed account of The Making of the Reaper you can visit Victor's Facebook page.
