Tyler plays flag football




Tyler is playing NFL flag football this fall. He has played t-ball and basketball,but I think he likes this the best. He really wanted to play tackle football, but Patrick was worried he might get hurt at such a young age so we comprimised with flag football. He is having so much fun. His coach is awesome and has taught them so much. He is on the offense and plays center. Go 49ers!!!

Send Out Cards "Send Out To Give"




Patrick and I have joined this new business called Send Out Cards. You go online and personalize a greeting card, put in the recipients name and address and click send on your computer and the company prints, stamps and mails out your card. You can even include gifts like cookies, brownies, gift cards, books, etc. No more going to the store to buy a card and then having to go to the post office to mail it. Last month we went to Salt Lake City, Utah for the convention. It was awesome listening to all the speakers, and we toured the factory where they make the cards and print them out. That was a very cool thing to see. Thurl Bailey was one of the guest speakers and sang some of his songs. We had to buy his CD and I got my picture taken with him. He is very tall! Yes I know everyone hates multi level marketing. Trust me I feel the same way, but this is actually something you would use. If you go to our website you can sign up for a free account and send a few cards. Give it a try. It's alot of fun to see the reactions of people when you send them a card for no specific reason. It just makes people feel good!
We ofcourse had to go to Temple Square and then eat at the Jospeh Smith Building at The Roof Restaurant. Wow that was really GOOD!

Chore Board


So one of my good friends is the enrichment leader in our ward. They are having a super Saturday next month and they have a bunch of cute crafts you can make. Well you know me, I always love to make cute things for my house so I told her I wanted to make this chore board. I thought what a great idea, it will look cute in my house and also get my kids to do their chores. Apparently she didn't have many people willing to help teach the classes so guess who got asked to teach it, yep that's right me! Last week we made ours since we won't have time that day, and they turned out sooooo cute! It is a very cute idea.
