As most of you know, our 3 girls are all blonde-haired, blue-eyed girls. I have dark hair and dark eyes, so it is not too "genetically correct" for this to happen since brown hair and brown eyes are supposed to be dominant! Well, we wanted to see how my blondies would look with dark hair...so here it is! Don't worry, it was just that hairspray stuff that washes out! Weird, huh?!
So I thought Kelsie was downstairs in bed the other night, but when I came to turn off her lamp,(she's usually asleep when I turn her lamp off!) I could hear someone in the game room hitting the billiard balls....lo and behold, it was Kelsie playing pool by herself! I've never seen her play pool, I didn't know she even had any interest in it (I thought the Young Men in our ward were the only ones who cared about it!) Well, she loves it, apparently, and she gave me a big hug and 56 kisses because I didn't get mad at her for not being in bed!

I just couldn't get mad at her because she looked so grown up playing pool!

She was supposed to be in bed...this is where I found her!

Pause my music then watch these cute, funny li'l boys!

Now watch these weirdos mimic the boys! Stupid, but funny!

Weekend excitement...

Okay, so I was able to escape from lovely Burley and go visit my Utah family and a few friends over the weekend! Thanks Tracy and John for letting us crash and hang out. They were having Stake Conference and Elder Quentin L. Cook, one of the 12 Apostles was presiding! I was able to meet him and hear his council and boy, was it awesome! We also had a family dinner at Tracy's so I could catch up with not only Tracy's awesome family, but also with Debbie and Matt, Ben and Nadja, Tiffany and their cute kids! Thanks everyone for traveling and visiting!

Also, my dad was just put in as bishop of a Young Student Adult ward in St. George! Craziness, huh? Good luck Pops! I guess you really don't need it...you've done it before, but now it's just the "young 'uns". They'll love you! Actually, it sounds like they already do! We'll keep you and your new responsibilities in our prayers!

Anyone else out there a big fan of Survivor?...




Okay, so there's really only one show that I follow (except for when The Bachelor is on!) and it's "Survivor". Did anyone else start watching last night's show of "Survivor:Fans vs. Favorites"? I really don't consider the "Favorites" any of mine, but oh well! I'm just relieved that Jonny Fairplay was kicked off the first episode...I really don't care for that notty boy...

Green bananas

So, does anyone remember when Pres. Hinckley said something like, "I don't even buy green bananas anymore because I might not live to see them ripen!"? When and where did he say that? I love that man!

My selfish reasons...

I know most people were happy when President Hinckley passed away (so he could be with his wife, family, past prophets, etc.)but I have to admit that I was very saddened and bummed because our Twin Falls Temple is almost completed and he was going to be here for the Youth Celebration and Temple Dedication. You see, I'm serving in the Young Women program and my daughter will be turning 12 this year, and our stake is one of the few stakes that were going to have breakfast with the prophet before the Youth Celebration that precedes the Dedication. So Briana and I were going to have a once in a lifetime experience with President Hinckley! Now I feel guilt for my selfish reasons. Yes, I'm bummed, but I will hold my head up high and try to remember that President Hinckley is in a better place with those he loves and I will be blessed to have the new Prophet here when the Twin Falls Temple is dedicated...
