I have a calling (assignment–unpaid–but oh so worth it) in my church as the Young Women President. We have 30 girls between the ages of 12-18 that we teach each Sunday and do activities with every Tuesday night. There are a few things in the summer and I have 7 hard working women that help […]
Cameron sure does love other cultures! She wanted to have a Mexican birthday a lot like her Native American birthday. She wanted to do REAL Mexican things, not just have nachos and swing at a pinata. Although we did those two things as well. Invite Cake Party Favors sombreros, mustaches, maracas, and whatever came out […]
I always look up what the meaning of names are when I am picking them out for kids. They never sway me away or to picking a name. Sometimes I forget what they mean till we get talking about it and I look it up again. We looked up Reagan’s name and I was reminded […]
Shae calls me Mama Nessa because I guess she has a few mothers and I am one of them?? Who knows. We had one, just one small & cheap summer vacation planned as a family and it fell through. Tyler had the chance to go to Oman for work and he took it. And I […]
Since we moved (same neighborhood & ward, just a better house) in April I had Shae pick anywhere she wanted other than our house to do her birthday party. Every time we get in the car she asks to go to the dinosaur museum, so of course she picked a birthday party at the dinosaur […]
Alright my friends, I organized this party well, real well. So I will write out a detailed post in case there is another mom out there trying to plan a science party for their kid. This party will be good for the boys or girls out there, this is not a gender specific party! Kid […]
Our last Annual End of Harvest Dinner was 3 months late and this year’s was 5 months early. Why am I referring to it as the “Annual End of Harvest Dinner” still? I don’t know. All I know is two sisters might be on their way to different states and different phases of their lives. So […]
My side of the family just had their yearly family dinner. I swore we had done it three times in the past but when I look in my blog history I can only find two posts. We did the cooking contest, taught the uncles how to do splits, took a nap on sister’s arms, got […]
Cameron, Cameron, Cameron has the most fantastic mind. I want to be in her brain for a full day and just be able to see how she can see things and all her little ideas. She decodes dreams for people, has a manual for it, and a notebook she writes them down in. She taught […]
Reagan turned two, my baby turned two! I am ok with this, I am burnt out from the baby stage. I had no idea what to buy her or what party to throw her for her birthday. This sweet thing of mine, her hobby is getting into trouble. I was thinking of doing a really […]
