My Watermelon Plant

I am so jazzed about this plant. I actually planted the seeds, and it grew. Hopefully I will have little watermelons soon!

My very own Flashback Friday!

I found these pictures, and thought, "ah, the good old days!" Just take note of the midnight blue prom dress, and my 80's hair! Enjoy!

My Newest Creations

I've been a busy girl this weekend. I know, pathetic, but I was "working".I didn't do anything but stay home, and make cards. I think that they turned out pretty well. Let me know what you all think! Hope you enjoy them!

My Mad Card Making Skills

So, I've decided to go into the card making business. I figure, what the heck, I have a ton of time on my hands, right? Not really, but my Mom told me that she and her friend are having a booth at the Butte County Fair, and I decided to try my hand at making some cards to see if anyone would be interested in buying them. So far this one is my favorite. Look at the posting below to see the other ones that I've done. I have to admit, they are pretty cute.

Check out my Slide Show!

OK, so these are my newest creations. My mom is going to have a booth at the Butte County Fair this year, so I'm hoping to make these and sell them there. Let me know what you all think!

Dallin and the kids were playing like they were in the snow, and Dallin kept saying, I'm in the snow... I couldn't resist. He seriously is the cutest kid!

I love these pictures of Bryn! She is so cute, and so much fun.

Happy Birthday Zachary

How did it happen so fast? Zachary turned 1 yr old on May 31st. I can't believe how fast he's grown, or how cute he is. Well maybe not the cute part. He is related to me after all!

Happy Graduation Daniel Lloyd!!!!!

It seems like yesterday that you were born and I babysat you! Next year high school. It's crazy that it has gone so quickly.

"By learning of the Savior, by believing in Him, by following Him, there is the capacity to become like Him. The countenance can change; the heart can be softened; the step can be quickened; the outlook enhanced. Life becomes what it should become.” -Thomas S Monson

"When we understand the character of God, and know how to come to Him, he begins to unfold the heavens to us, and to tell us all about it. When we are ready to come to him, he is ready to come to us." -Joseph Smith

Come Unto Christ

I was looking on the lds.org website, and I came across this. I'm sure that everyone has seen this, but I love Henry B Eyring. When I hear him speak, I know without a doubt that he is an apostle of Jesus Christ. The link is below, and I encourage all of you to read it. It opens with the following sentence. "The words “come unto Christ” are an invitation. It is the most important invitation you could ever offer to another person. It is the most important invitation anyone could accept. From the beginning of the Restoration of the gospel in this dispensation, it has been the charge given by Jesus Christ to His representatives. Their charge has been “to warn, expound, exhort, and teach, and invite all to come unto Christ.”

I love these pictures. Haley got glasses recently and she looks so cute! The picture below was taken at my office. Kyle and Haley kinda got stranded and got the wonderful opportunity to hang out with yours truly at my office. They were perfect angels too!

Kyle's 13th Birthday Party

I can't believe that you are 13! Kyle had his birthday party at the bowling alley this year, and he had such a great time. He was able to invite 10 of his friends, and they bowled, and then had cake and pizza. He opened presents, and the last one was a present from his friend Dominic. Guitar Hero III. I thought that he was going to freak out. He and Dominic have been friends since they were little. I'm glad that he's had such great friends in his life!

Haley's 10th Birthday

I took Haley and Kyle to Hometown
Buffet to celebrate Haley's 10th birthday. What was so funny is that as they brought her cupcake out, and started to sing, she looked up and saw some people and she said, " I love this, I want to see who it is." As they passed the people next to us and came up to her, her face got super red and she said "Aunt Jenny!" It was fun to embarrass her, but I always want her to know how special she is and how important she is to me! I LOVE HER SO MUCH, and am so GRATEFUL for her!

I love these pictures. I took them at Jared's birthday party. What I love about these 2 is if there is dirt anywhere to be found, they will not only find it, but take a bath in it!

He's so cute!

What a sweetheart he is! Zachary points at everything right now. I'm so glad that his mom is so willing to send pictures to me of this cute little guy! I can't believe that he's going to be 1 this month. Where did the time go?

DWTS!!!!

YAHOO!!!!!!!!

I am so excited that Kristi Yamaguchi and Mark Ballas won Dancing With The Stars, or as we prefer to call it DWTS! It's about time that a girl won. It's been 5 seasons since the last girl won. Kristi was amazing to watch, and so much fun too!

I know, he may look startled, but nobody would argue about how cute this little guy is!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYLE!!!!!!

I can't believe that you are 13! What an amazing person you are. You are thoughtful, sweet, and smart. You care about your family, and are sensitive to their needs, and you are an amazing friend. It's hard to think about how 13 years ago you were born into our family. You have been such a joy and blessing. I am grateful for you and the closeness that we share. I hope that you will always know that you are loved, and how grateful that your family is that you were born into our family. I hope that as you grow and learn, you will always remember who you are. That you will continue to make good choices like you always have. So many wonderful things are in store for you. Remember that in all the triumphs and disappointments in your life, you will always have a family that will love and support you. Especially your favorite Aunt! I love you.

A new background

Well, I'm trying. I don't know how successful I am, but it's a lot of fun to try new things and see if it works. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I don't get to play around with it as much as I'd like to, but we'll see how it goes.

You may be wondering why I'm posting this picture. I saw it an instantly started to laugh! For years when Haley would smile, she would have this very odd smile. We love it!
