Headache

Blogging has dried up for a while. Why? In a word HORMONES! I've been too busy just making it through the day. To top it all off... today I have a huge headache. I'm always hesitant to say "migraine", but today I'm going to label it as a migraine. If several sharp pains that feel like a constant knife in your eye, accompanied by nausea is not a migraine I don't know what is. Well enough for this post, it has been WAY to cheery!!

PS We watched Mr Kruger's Christmas tonight for family night. Watch it. It's really touching!

Kyle's Always Cooking Up Something

Kyle loves to cook. He also is very into "plating". I guess it's he artistic natures coming out. This weekend he made several wonderful meals. He likes the kids to feel like they are in a 5 star restaurant. Check out how he serves our kids!!

Christmas Ornaments

Yesterday Kyle spent most of the day at Tithing Settlement. I wanted to do something fun with the kids. We decided to make our own ornaments (how domestic!!). We had such a great time. They turned out really cute. They were so easy and fun that I decided to post the recipe.

Holiday Ornaments

2 cups flour
1/2 cup salt
3/4 cup water

Add water add at once. Stir well until moistened. Knead for 5 minutes. Roll and cut into shapes. Bake 350 for 30-45 minutes (we needed 45 minutes). Cool. Paint. Enjoy!!



Finished Product!!


This is how we all learned that we don't want paint on our arms, legs, bellies...

Amazing Weekend

 We had an amazing holiday weekend. It started on Wednesday when we got to see Kyle's sister Shannon and her family. When we lived in Riverdale we got to see them often and now we don't see them nearly enough. We had fun spending the day with them.

We headed to Hooper Wed. evening. Thursday morning we found out Judi was in the hospital in labor. What an exciting event to happen on Thanksgiving. I can't think of anything to be more thankful for. Early that afternoon Judi gave birth to a healthy 7lb 13oz, 20 inch baby boy. His names is William Micheal Coburn. We were all so proud of Judi. I'll admit we were all a little distracted on Thanksgiving. Maybe a little baby hungry??? Well we still had a great turkey dinner. We had so much fun playing with cousins.

Friday we got to go ice skating and eat at the Burger Bar (yummy!). We also got to see little William. We cut our stay a little short because Judi and Mike are currently living with my Mom and Dad. We knew they needed a quiet house to come home to.

Of course Saturday was awesome...GO COUGARS!! They tried to give us all heart failure but finally pulled out the win (maybe it was luck?). Kyle and James were thrilled. We celebrated with a date to Red Lobster. I had shrimp. As Bubba on Forest Gump would say, "I love Shrimp".

Well now I'm back home and blogging again.

For this wonderful life, I give thanks!

Brynn's Baptism

Brynn was baptized on November 10,2007. I know I am a little late on this post. I'm trying to get used to living my life in blogging mode. Brynn was baptized by Kyle. Mom, Dad and Millie came to St. George. We also had Kyle's family and many of Brynn's friends. The baptism was so wonderful. Brynn was so beautiful and excited. I was proud of Brynn for taking this big step. We had a big pasta dinner afterwards at our house. What an amazing day! Thank you to everyone who sent notes and gifts to Brynn. It is great to be so loved.
