Easter....A week Later




We went to my parent's house for Easter this year. The weather was great for the kids to be outside most of the time. That's always nice. We had a delicious meal and a great time visiting with our cousins. It was a Great day!!

One of my favorite things...Owls!


My sweet little friend Jenna made cupcakes the other day and thought she would make a special one just for me! I thought that was so nice of her. My boys each spoke for an eye and eyebrow, and I got the rest of the owl. It was still pretty tasty. Thanks Jenna for thinking of me.

False Alarm

Okay, to those of you who are deeply concerned about my last painful post...false alarm. My tooth is no longer killing me. I did go to the dentist Saturday morning and of course the pain had subsided a little bit and the only thing that was really bugging me was a headache. My dentist ran a few tests to see how bad the pain was, and it wasn't bothering me enough to be a problem right then. I was almost angry about it not hurting like it did because I had made the appointment, paid for the appointment, and was an hour late for work!! He decided that the pain and sensitivity was probably coming from a sinus infection?? I guess that's better than having to get a root canal. So, now I am using my prescription toothpaste for sensitivity and not chewing on that side to give it a rest. Sorry about my whining last week. There are worst things I am SURE!
Also, I LOVED conference this last weekend. I think the messages were exactly what I needed to hear. I can't wait for my Ensign next month so I can highlight all my favorite parts. :)

My Tooth Hurts!!


I've known for about a month or so that I have a tooth that's been bugging me every now and again. It will hurt really bad for a few minutes and then the pain usually disappears! However, today when I was on my way home from work, I got that terrible toothache back and it won't go away. I had the same thing last year on my other side and ended up getting a root canal, so round two. Thank goodness for insurance!!!! My "emergency" appointment isn't until Monday morning, but I am going to call again tomorrow to see if I can get in at least by Saturday. I hate it mostly because it makes my head hurt, therefore I wasn't very nice to the little boys at bedtime. (but they weren't listening very well and were taking their sweet time doing every thing But getting ready for bed). Maybe I will be nicer tomorrow?

Rook's Food Storage for the year!

Rook's favorite thing to eat right now is peanut butter and jelly (jam) sandwhiches. He asks me for one for every meal. So, as long as I am stocked up on peanut butter, bread, and jam...he's good to go. Now all I need is to dry pack some chocolate milk!

Finally Baptized!


Carter has been counting down the days until he gets baptized. Today was the day and he had so much fun. He started his day with an early morning basketball game (playoffs), which they were tied with 3.9 seconds left of the game and his friend Ethan made both of his foul shots. Therefore, they won the game by 2 points. Then he and his Dad rushed over to the church to get changed into their baptism clothes. Most of Jared's family and my side were there, along with some of our good friends. It was so nice to have so many people come to support Carter. He loves a crowd. We all came back to our house for a big dinner afterwards. It was all delicious. Thanks to those who contributed. Last but not least, Jared and Carter went to Pocatello with some friends and went to the ISU basketball game tonight. He is going to be one exhausted kid when he gets home. I hope Carter had a special day and will be able to remember it for a very long time. He's such a good boy (when he wants to be), and he makes my life so much more "interesting"....in a good way!

Undefeated...so far

We have had a lot of fun watching this team play basketball this season. This picture was taken right after their game last week, so they all look like they are exhausted. They have their playoff game this weekend, so we will see if they can keep their winning streak alive. Carter is also getting baptized that same day. It is going to be a busy one!
