Yellow is for "Happy"

Through the mirror.


Double shot of curtain. My kids were ready to get rid of this shower curtain, but I like it.



New face plates. (Couldn't we all use a new face now and then?)


Still have my clock--this was a wedding shower present from Luan.

New towel racks. (I installed the round one--it didn't need any extra touches, but the long racks did--thank you Corky.)

Another view.

Babies, babies

(Yes, I know I'm gorgeous in my jammies with no make-up and hair not done. Thank you.)

Wow, what a month! I got to see two beautiful babies, one brand new, and one a whole year old. I'll start with the 1-year old--Miss Zuki herself. What a doll! I was totally looking forward to babysitting for 2-1/2 days, but it didn't turn out that way. (You owe me, Natalie.) Mo and Zuki came Conference weekend and went to Mo's mission reunion. He made it there after many mishaps, but that's his story, not mine. I was so excited to see that darling little Zuki. They spent the night and I got to snuggle with her the next morning, only while Mo was in the shower and totally out of sight. She did get down and play with the kids a bit, but was ever aware of the whereabouts of her dad. I didn't get any really great pictures--every time she smiled and I got the camera ready, she moved. I'm just not quick enough. But here are a couple of cuties.

See what a sweetheart Ava Lee is? Check out more on the Flickr link, when I figure that out! I took some picture of her pretty little feet, everyone was laughing at me. Well, I must defend my actions. I have a whole little album full of photos just like that. Babies change so quickly--it's fun to see their feet, their ears, hands, etc. So don't laugh. I wish I'd totally ignored everyone and taken more. So there!

Jr. Prom--Is it cursed?

Last year Taylor went to Jr. Prom and at the very end of the date while dropping off the second-to-last person, he backed into a parked car. This year, he was driving, another group following him to the restaurant--Taylor stopped for a red light, the other driver didn't stop. One girl got a sprained ankle and a bloody nose. She didn't make it to dinner or the dance. Everybody else did.

Okay, I didn't really get to finish this story--got interrupted, and I already have comments! How fun. I love looking on my blog and seeing comments. I'm not so great at leaving them, but I love it when you all leave one. (I know that's such a hypocritical attitude, but at least I'm honest, right?)

The kids, most of them, went to dinner (very late) but had a good time. After the dance they came to our house and played Rock Band for a little while. I love Rock Band! Some were pretty funny and didn't totally want to participate, just watch. So fun to play and sing. Anyway, I got pictures of the kids, but most of them didn't turn out very well. Here they are anyway. Taylor and his date were really cute, and their picture actually looks okay!

Taylor and Chantay

Corky and I have decided, however, that none of our other children will be driving to Jr. Prom. Sorry kids. We'll take you, drop you off, pick you up. You simply won't be driving.

Pics from January

I finally figured out how to get some pictures--wow. I know that's a no-brainer for most of you, but I never do it. Let's see if I can figure this out for real.

I have photos here from my sweet Dad's funeral. I thought I'd add those here.

Okay, well, I decided this would take up waaaayyy too much space, so I put stuff on Flickr, but now I can't get it all to show up! I know, I'm old and old people just don't get how to do all this stuff. Maybe Emily can help me????? (Please?) Stop laughing at me!
