For anyone who reads this before I get Jamie to help me fix it tomorrow I need to explain...
I was trying to put our family Christmas picture taken last year in place of the picture in 2004. It is only missing 2 babies instead of 8. Somehow I lost it and came up with a scary scene out of Wicked!!! It is probably appropriate however on such a bewitching week. Tomorrow Nauvoo has it's pumpkin walk and parade. I carved 19 pumpkins for it. Perhaps I'll take some pictures for the blog... who knows what the pictures might actually be of however buy the time I try to put them in. Maybe something alien!

I Love This Blog!!!

I had the best birthday on Saturday thanks to my wonderful family! Thank you Erin for this blog. I am so excited about it and will try to learn to use it. You kids feel free to help me anytime you have time or energy. I started to try and figure it all out and had given up when Erin did it for a present! What a neat gift.
Turning 59 is not fun or for wimps but your calls and fun gifts made it worth it. Thanks Casi and Jared for the beautiful necklace and earrings. I wore them to a reception for the temple presidency on my birthday and again the next day for our special devotional at the temple. Jamie the shopping trip to Iowa City and the neat gifts were so much fun!!! Everyones calls (even the belated ones) were exciting. Thank you -thank you -thank you!

Forgive me. . . I can't sleep

Okay, okay - so I have been on Mom's case for creating a blog and not doing anything with it. It drives me nuts that it is just sitting out here with so much potential and not being utilized. Well, tonight I couldn't sleep (as is usually the case with me) and I remembered that Mom pretty much uses the same password for everything, so I decided to get a bit creative with her blog and. . . well. . . create it. So, here are a few pictures that I happened to have and hopefully now Mom won't have any excuse not to keep it up. I swear I won't touch it again unless I am asked!!

I love you Mom - Happy Birthday!!
-Erin
