Pictures from 2-27-11

Some of the pictures are blurry because I forget to wait a half second to let the camera adjust/focus before taking the picture.

Steve has some good news!!!

Some really good news. I'll let him or Lori post it. And no he is not engaged.

What a teaser!

They did announce at the end of the news program last night that more MTC will be shown between conference sessions on April 3rd.

Maybe Steve will be on TV tonight!

This picture was in the Deseret News this morning.

Steve said he was photographed "teaching" at the MTC recently so maybe he will be on the TV tonight. Watch, just in case.

Chuck & Amy are on their way!

Suggestions Appreciated

Chuck suggested our last menu - Fajitas.
Baylee likes Bread Bowls & Creamy Potato Soup.
Amy said her most favorite is Breakfast Foods.
So we're all set for the next few weeks.
2-27-2011 -- Soups
3-13-2011 -- Breakfast Foods
More suggestions welcome.

Helpful Hint

This stuff works great. Spray it in the toilet bowl, close the lid and leave it be for a hour or so and "walla", it's clean. No scrubbing even.

Amy was talking about this picture yesterday. Thought I'd post it.

We also have "dear" footprints -- placed there yesterday by some of the great-grandchildren

Deer path

Every morning about 8-10 deer cut through our backyard, and go house to house eating foliage. It's a routine I can count on. That's why we leave our gate open. We don't want any more impelled deer.

Bad Smell?

Have you ever noticed that sometimes dish cloths smell bad?
Well, Darci asked me how I keep mine from smelling bad. I said I put them in a pail - like a diaper pail. As though Darci or anyone her age would know what a diaper pail was. But on further thought I don't think that a cloth being in a pail makes the difference. I think my dish cloths still have a lot of detergent in them when I put them in the pail. That is probably why they don't smell? A long answer to your question Darci.

A BIG deal

We actually had our carpets cleaned yesterday! Yes, we have lived in this house for twelve and a half years and our carpets were very dirty (we chose a dark color on purpose, so the dirt wouldn't show as much). I even had the tile cleaned but the grout still isn't really clean but better.

I had to do a little extra house cleaning getting the house ready for Zero-rez and was amazed at how much junk we (actually just me - not Grant) had accumulated. I am used to moving every four years and de-junking than. You can't believe what I found --- even a tiny box of SUGAR BABIES. Now how long have they been sitting there? Since October's scavenger hunt! I rewarded myself by eating them. Yum.

On Sunday,the guys were down stairs watching the Super Bowl, the girls were in the kitchen doing a craft, Austin and Tyson were having fun running around the house and decided to go down stairs. Before descending, Tyson said to Austin, "Be careful, Aust!", Austin turned to Tyson and said, "We're Super Heroes, what could happen?"

A LOVING FAMILY

Lori, Craig, Lisa, Tom, Ron & Karlene THANK YOU FOR THIS GIFT!!!

We have spent many happy hours looking at the pictures of our loved ones. We love every picture but there is one that touched my heart -- Austin helping Tyson out of the pool. An example of how loving families should be.

Grateful for cameras/and family to take pictures of!

Ron & Steve have lots of help blowing out their candles

Kinzley Morgan red eyed after crying. CUTE!
