#7 A picture of someone/something that has the biggest impact on you

Ok, so Don't tell my husband, cuz I always give him crap about Dave Ramsey, but really, I think he's had a huge impact on our lives.

So ever since Bryan has worked at Lifetime, they kinda pushed the book "total money make over" by dave ramsey. Well, since then we have pulled ourselves completely out of debt other then our house, but have refinanced and really only have about 12 more years. We have sunk some funds into savings and when things break, its nice to have funds to go purchase what we need.
It was really hard at first to buckle down cuz I've always been a spender, though I feel like i'm "cheap". Anyway, even though I use coupons as it is, its nice knowing we don't have any Debt.
And just so you know, I've never read or listened to the book.

Mothers Day

My hubby got up and got the kids up and made me breakfast in bed. It was yummy, eggs, hash browns and sausage.
Adam gave me a cute Necklace he made at school. Then we went to church. I was so looking forward to the kids singing. So when it was time for the kids to go up, my 3 middle kids went up to sing. About half way thru the first song I noticed that Katrina was starting to cry. Poor little girl. So when she finally looked up at me, i motioned for her to come to me. Then she told me "I didn't want to sing". Anyway, I sat and held her for a little bit till she stopped crying. Then they had the Young Men get up and sing "Teach me to walk in the Light". Such a beautiful song. They had the Young men also give talks. They were all amazing and funny.
Then I came home and took a nap, and Bryan made a yummy dinner too.
What a Great Mothers Day!

#6 my super hero

I would have to say Elastigirl from Incredibles. Someday I want to be a super mom like she is!
My kids have too much energy and like to fight. If I had long stretchy arms, I could separate them.

#5 redo- A picture of somewhere you've been to

Ok, so when I read #5 I totally read it wrong. So i'm Redoing #5 to "a place where we have been to", not "a place where we have been today"
YELLOWSTONE We went to Yellowstone last summer with Bryan's family. It was a real fun vacation.
Katrina has Uncle Troy wrapped around his finger. She got him to buy her stuff, and carry her when ever she wanted. Silly girl.

Of course we saw Old Faithful
The kids were So fascinated.


Then of course there is the wild life

#5 A picture of somewhere you've been today

Well, this wasn't today but it was on Saturday.
My Grandpa is in a rest home. He doesn't talk much. but I did manage to get him to squeeze my hand, that made me happy. He will be 95 in October. Its so sad to see him this way :(
Grandpa Great, Caleb and Grandpa
the kids weren't quite sure what to think. Sad to say, its been a while since we have seen him.
Grandma, Caleb and Grandpa Great. Tommy wasn't with us on Saturday. I was bowling in the GSLBA (greater salt lake bowling association) tournament and I took the kids to my mom's because the bowling alley is really close to her house. So between sets of games we went and visited Grandpa.
