Attention!!...(Please read)




Noah's sister and her family is having a garage sale this coming weekend (Friday and Saturday) and needs your help! She has been doing this garage sale for the past 5 years to help pay for therapy for her son Caleb with Autism. It has been a huge success in the past and I hope it goes just as good for them this year.


So how can you help?? Clean out those closets, cupboards, under beds, playrooms...everything and donate your "treasures" to help a great cause. They will come pick up anything or you can drop it off at my house or any of Noah's family members houses and we will get it to the garage sale. If you don't have anything to donate you can still support by coming by and buying these "treasures". The garage sale will take place at Noah's Mom's house which is at 1540 E. Grove...off of Harris in between southern and baseline. This garage sale is the mother of all garage sales. If you like garage saleing you don't want to miss this one! It takes up 2 full yards! Hope to see you there!

Our Easter week

Our Easter week started out with Activity day girls. I can't tell you how much I love this calling! And have the best group of girls. We did a little activity where we went through and talked about each day leading up to the Crucifixion. I think their favorite part was washing each others feet!
We ended with talking about Jesus getting resurrected. I made these cool and delicious "tomb" rolls....get it? If you can't tell, they are hollow inside!

Wendsay was Sadie's pre-school Easter party. They had fun finding eggs and got the cutest things from their cutest teacher. Thx Becky!

Friday we decorated eggs with my brothers and their families. This was supposed to be a great night but turned really bad when Brody erased my WHOLE talk I was going to be giving on Sunday at church. Ya, it ruined my whole night and was so mad, but I guess I learned a great lesson of SAVING your work!
Saturday morning we had a little Easter egg hunt down at our park. It was freezing and raining but we all still had a great time. The best part was Sadie Rogers taking a bath in the huge puddles of water! Love that girl!
Sunday morning the kids found their baskets. They got new swimsuits and sandals for the summer!
In between re-writing my talk I made these little balls of cuteness. They turned out pretty cute and tasted even better! But...I will never make them again! Too much work.

Next we took a few pics in our Easter wear. I think the kids looked fantastic. And they loved being all matchy!







After church we had a fabulous dinner at my Mom's and another Egg hunt afterwards. My kids came home with enough candy that will last till next Easter!
It was great day in all and am so grateful to get that dang talk out of the way!!

Goodbye Arizona...

I can't believe this is really happening.
So last Friday Noah calls me and says guess who I got an email from? I had no clue but guessed someone (if you are in my family you know who I guessed..haha) and said nope...Regent! They emailed to say that he was accepted into their Law School!! He really was as excited as a little kid.
So where the heck is Regent???

Virginia!!

(Virginia Beach to be exact)

I had to look at one of these to make sure where we were going.



It was one of our top choices of schools so we are way excited! I actually got a little teary eyed as he was telling me because I knew it just made made moving all too real. It will be crazy to be that far away from the one state we have lived in but we both know it is exactly where we should be. I know nothing about Virginia but everyone we talk to says it is amazing! I'm really looking forward to being in a whole new environment.
Soooooo school starts the second week in August so we thought we would make that long journey the last week in July. (We are going to Wicked July 14 so we can't go till then!)
If you have ever been to VA let me know what you like about it...we will need all the guidance we can get.
