Book of Mormon Read-a-thon

I had an AMAZING experience this past week that I will NEVER forget! Thanks to my mommy who came and watched my kiddos, I had the opportunity to join the Young Women of our ward and read the Book of Mormon cover to cover in just over 29 hours. We started on Thursday, August, 12 at 4pm and ended with a testimony meeting around a fire at 9:00pm on Friday, August 13. The Young Women are crazy but amazing girls and I am so happy I could be a part of this wonderful experience. My testimony of the Book of Mormon grew so much. It is such an inspiring book that changes people's lives. It is most definitely another testament of Jesus Christ and how blessed we are to have it in our lives. I was humbled by the stories and sad that i have taken it for granted for so long. Thank you Kolette for inviting me... I had so much fun!

What happens when my kids get a hold of the camera...

My kids LOVE to take pictures. And you never know what pictures will show up on the camera. But I LOVE to see the world from their perspective. Sometimes I see their little fingers in front of the lens or their toys lined up or every wall in the room that surrounds them. My FAVORITE pictures that they take are of each other. Here are a few of the most recent pics from my little photographers.

Pioneer Day - July 24, 2010

As usual every year we go to the Stake Center and celebrate pioneer day! There is a yummy breakfast, parade, water slides, dunk booth, and of course gigormous cotton candy! There was a little breeze and it wasn't too hot this year so it made festivities a lot more enjoyable. Serenity and Parker rode in the Robertson's wagon while Ali and Amy pulled them along. Now Serenity's good friend, Alleeda, is in our stake so we get to see her at stake activities. We had fun hanging out and playing with friends.

Bowling

One of the things on our "Summer Fun" list was to go bowling. Sierra Lanes had an awesome summer bowling coupon... 2 hours of bowling for $8.99 and that includes shoes. So the kids had a blast bowling 6 games! Parker was perfectly content in the stroller most of the time clapping when Serenity and Landen with roll their bowling ball down the lane.
