Today we were able to go up for the blessing of Traci and Tony's sweet baby Taylei! Weighing in at 6lbs. 11oz. and 19in. long, Taylei was born July 9th, 2008 at 3:10pm. She is such a sweet and beautiful little baby! We are so happy for Tony and Traci and the newest addition to their family! Congratulations you guys we love you!
A friend of mine made a ground breaking discovery, which I have been meaning to share. Ok honestly, I never intended too...I didn't want EVERYONE to know, however, I feel obligated to share the truth with all! For years women all over the world have obsessed about weight loss. Feeling inadequate and depressed when stepping on the scale. The thought of that dreaded needle springing to an unmentionable number hangs over many of us. Little did we know that all along we have had it wrong. No wonder the number on the scale never seems right! I'm sure it has been a scam all along telling women to STAND on the scale! How upsurd! How did we not see the truth before now?! So ladies, if you must make the dreaded walk to the scale...let's do it right from now on, and breathe a sweet sigh of relief that we now know the TRUTH!
8-8-08! It just so happens that 8 is my favorite number, and to top it off we had a WAY fun night!!! Daddio's birthday was Friday and my mom threw him a big birthday party with the Olympic theme. After class I headed up to my mom and dad's house to help setup.
We got to spend lots of time with Connor, he is SOO much fun with love this boy...he loves his Uncle Chad!
In the morning Dad made us all breakfast! It was so much fun! Unfortunately, Lance, Lacie, Hope, Jerry, Shelly, Shayla, Dallan, Addelyn, Kassidy, and the twins (yet to be named) weren't able to be with us. We missed you guys! HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDIO!!!!!! WE LOVE YOU!!!!
It's official, I am going to be working in the BYU Kindergarten during Fall semester! I am SOOOO excited! I can't believe I am going to get paid to do what I love...play with kids! Although there is no light at the end of my schooling tunnel, working with the children in the Preschool this past Summer has made the semester a million times better. I can't wait until I can have a class of my own!
I know I haven't posted in a while, but I really do have a good reason. I promise nothing exciting has been happening...everything that could have been potential blogs I haven't been able to go to. This Summer Term has been crazy! So many people told me how easy Spring/Summer is...well, I'm not sure I agree. I'm sure partly I just wasn't ready for how fast it all goes by, but I got all of the teachers who refused to cut ANYTHING out...therefore all I do is homework. Next week is the last week of class. I'm excited for the break, and the chance I will have to work on my major application, however, I'm a little worried that it is so close to the end of the term and I am not more panic-y.
So, I've been looking through old pictures of my dad and I found these. These were taken while he was still in school working on his Masters and Doctorate degree. This so fits how I have felt recently, and I'm sure anyone who is in school, or already finished, knows what I mean. Although, I have no room to talk. My dad was working full time, going to school full time, and had six kids plus me! I count as a lot more than one! I figure if he can do it...I should be able to!
Isn't this couch AWESOME?!
This one I was around...see the swing! And notice the awesome curtains!
