George Albert Smith Challenge

May's ideal: I would not seek to force people to live up to my ideals but rather love them inot doing the thing that is right.

This is another personal month for me, but there is are a few people who are not living the ideals they (and I) know to be true. However, I love them very much and they are still outstanding people and I love them regardless. That's all I will say about this month because it is personal. June's ideal is:

I would live with the masses and help to solve their problems that their earth life may be happy.

If you decorate, it will come.

A friend of mine uses the motto, "if you decorate, it will come". So I decorated for fall because I want the fall weather to get here already. I'm a pregnant lady who doesn't like the heat when I'm not pregnant, so I'm especially not fond of it right now. It's supposed to be in the low 80's here, but instead it's in the high flippin' 90's! A friend of mine has a fabulous blog, http://smallsimplethingswithlove.blogspot.com, and it is my FAVORITE blog, so check it out. Nicole, is talented and creative and on a budget!! (my 3 favorite things) Anyway, she had some really cute ideas on her blog that I stole and it got me in the mood for decorating! This picture is of our entry way, by our front door. My favorite part is the autumn picture which I made with my handy-dandy Cricut machine. My husband even helped, hehe. I've had the frame for at least 10 years and I just took out the old ugly picture of the flower that was in it and crea

Maybe a new birthday tradition...

I just have one brother and his birthday is 5 days before mine, so it's been pretty easy to keep up with him. Jim, however, has 3 brothers and a sister, and now 3 of his siblings are married, so the birthday's just keep adding up. My forgetful brain can NOT keep up. Anyway, I've been looking for a cute and thoughtful way to send birthday greetings to all the aunts and uncles since we've been married. Almost 4 years later I think I finally have an idea! My idea is to make a birthday sign every year and have the boys take a picture with the sign for whatever family member has a birthday. Then send the person the picture with birthday greetings. Then every year they will have a different picture with the boys as they grow and I won't feel guilty missing anyone's birthday without proper acknowledgement. I also thought that it would make a great photo album for us if we keep each person's birthday picture with the boys and watch their growth progression

New callings

Well we did get new callings at church, but that's just an excuse to post more pictures! Jim is now the 2nd counselor in the Sunday school presidency and I am an assistant to the Activity Days coordinator. I think it'll be a lot of fun! I can't wait to work with the girls. Anyway, the boys wore my favorite outfits of the season on Sunday, so it was picture time at our house on Sunday. How cute are these boys?! I can't believe how big Jackson is these days. In my mind he's still Austin's size. Notice the socks with sandals that Jackson is sporting? That was Daddy's idea. Thank goodness I realized that he had socks on with sandals before Sacrament even started. I promptly took them off. Men.
