Happy Birthday Weekend Gabe

Gabe's Birthday was yesterday. Friday night he claims his birthday weekend started. He went and played xbox with friends until 4:30am. I didn't call or complain once (that was my present #1). Saturday he did help pick up and clean but he watched the NFL Draft all day and the Lakers Game (again didn't say anything Present #2). He bought a Grill (present number 3). Today we had about 25 people over for a BBQ and party. (Present #4). I made a him a giant cake (present #5).

Now his birthday weekend is over so he gets to clean up the whole mess from the Party!

Here is Gabe and his cake. I am making a cake for a friend's wedding so I needed to practice. That is why it is so big and girly. I added a little manliness though. Happy Birthday Gabe! Love Ya.

A Hard Days Work

I have really wanted Gabe to do something about the side of the house that leads to the back yard for a while. The grass wouldn't grow and the dogs would constantly bring dirt inside the house. Not to mention the giant hole they dug or the mud that they would get in when it would rain. This Sat. with the help of great friends they laid down a nice brick path to the backyard. I had to go to work and when I came home it was almost finished so Gabe and I put the finishing bricks around the edge. I hung some flower planters and I'm going to attempt to grow flowers. We will see... I haven't been too successful in the past, but we got miracle grow soil and they are in the sunlight so we will see. The backyard is finally getting started, now I might actually go outside. Before I hated it because my shoes would just get muddy. Here's some photos off all the hard work.

Happy Easter!

I am so Grateful for my Savior and his love for me and the knowledge I have of his Atonement and Resurrection. I know that my Savior Lives and that he suffered and died so that we might return and live with him and Heavenly Father again. What an amazing gift. Here is special testimony from one our Apostles on the Atonement of the Savior. I am so grateful for a Latter Day Prophet and Apostles that bear witness of the Savior and Heavenly Father and teach me principles that will lead me home.

Youth Talent Show

A couple weeks ago we had a youth talent show at church. Lets just say my box of dress up clothes came in handy when the young men planned their skit. Here are the high lights.

We did that skit when some one else is your arms and you put makeup on; I don't normally have lip gloss on my eyes.
