Some random..ness

Not too much going on around here lately..but I guess that could be a good thing, Huh? I've been meaning to update for so long but just didn't have something great to post about. So I thought I would just comment on some random subjects I've been thinking about.



First off, who is not in love with the weather right now?! I'm mean it could not get any better right now for us Arizonans. By about 4pm all the kids are outside riding their bikes up and down the street and all us Moms gather together and just hang out and talk about...everything I guess! This is the one thing I am REALLY going to miss about moving. I live on the best street in the world and am really going to miss our evening chats.







I'm loving Spring! I love Easter stuff, the bright colors, the yummy smells (orange blossoms..need I say more?), the final months of school, trying to get in shape for summer. What I am not loving?..all the Allergies that come along with Spring! I have never had allergies but lately I have been getting pounded with them! I now know what Noah has been living with the past 8 years. It sucks. Anyone have a good Allergy medicine send it my way!

How cute are these terra cotta Easter baskets? I want to make them for the ladies I visit teach!





Speaking of the final months of school...did you hear who is speaking at ASU's graduation??







Yup. And guess who is graduating this semester? Noah! He always said he would never go to his graduation but when I heard Obama was speaking I told him, he is so going! I'm not an Obama lover but when else would you get to see the President in that kind of setting? Never! So I can not wait!



Lately I have been loving these adorable headbands made by Vestige Jewelry (My aunt Karen and her daughter Cassie). They make a bad hair day look great or a good hair day look fabulous! I just CHOPPED my hair(I'll post a pic later) so I'm very excited to play around with them and my new do. They make jewelry also and have two of the cutest necklaces ever. And best yet...their prices are very reasonable! I sound like a salesman, huh?





Cute huh?

The latest...


That face! I could just eat him. Ronan is now 10 months old. I really can't believe it. Time has flown by. With the other two I could not wait for them to get older but I just want him to stay the baby. He started taking steps a couple weeks ago and now is walking from couch to couch. He gets the biggest grin on his face when he starts walking. I can't believe I need to start thinking about him turning 1!



Noah turned 29 on January 27th. We went to Joe's BBQ with Noah's family and my parents for his FREE dinner. You really can't beat Joe's. Then came home to a cute cake in a jar from our home teacher. We sang happy B-day and that was about it. Nothing too big but he knew he was loved.
Sadie had a cute Valentine party at her pre-school. They sang a song for all the Mom's and then gave us carnations. She had been singing the song at home for weeks but when it came time to sing at school all she cared about was the sucker she was eating. Oh well.

I made these cute valentines for the kids to take to school. Thanks to my creative friend Kanoe, I copied what she did last year.


I saw this cute locker idea to put your Valentine's in from a magazine. Brody and I tried to copy it but it just didn't turn out as cute as the picture. Of course.



Noah just got his first letter back from a Law School and he got in!! It is Thomas Jefferson in California. He is still waiting on several other letters so it will still be awhile until we decide where to go. We both were so excited. I'm so proud of him!

Me? Not a lot going on with me, but I did get released from the Primary Presidency and put into Activity Days. Seriously, it's the best job in the ward! The girls love everything you do and you only have to do an activity everyother week. I'm loving it.

And that's about it from US.
