Just thinkin....

I take a supplement called Emergen-C. I have heard that it's pretty much the same as Airborne. I like Emergen-C because it costs less that Airborne, and I think it is tastier, and you don't have to wait for it to melt (or whatever.) I have heard so many conflicting sides to these products. Some say that they don't work at all and have a very strong opinion about it. I have been using Emergen-c for about two years, off and on and mostly in the Fall and Winter. I have not had a really bad cold in these two years, I have had 1 mild cold and this Fall I lost my voice but had no other symptoms. I have two kids in school ( the germ factory) and they have brought home some nasty stuff, I did not get any of it. I really feel like the Emergen-C has boosted my immune system, I used to get sick all the time. is it all in my head that it really works? One more thing I always get a flu shot and so does my family (exept my dear hubby who usually won't) We have never had influenza, Just like the Emergen-C/ Airborne I have heard that people really don't think they work, they work for me, what's the deal, am I just lucky? TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!

Rock a bye Baby


When I went to take a shower today, I told Maddie to watch over the boys and make sure they stayed in the play room. I was not very long, 15-20 minutes is all. When I came back, there was Connor, hanging in a laundry basket tied to the bowflex with nylons. I was taken back, first by the danger of Connor possibly falling out and second by the great ingenuity of my children. I told Maddie that it was too dangerous and to not do that again, but not before I captured the moment! :) I have been asking Jason to put the Bowflex away or get rid of it because we don't use it, now I think we have the perfect excuse!

Christmas and Family update


Christmas Morning at our house was so nice this year!
We took our time and had a great time. It was snowing like
crazy outside, so we just stayed home for the morning. Then we
went to the Attebury's for dinner. It was a great day!



Connor's new favorite pass time. He gathers all his favorite books
and his 'bikie'(blanket) and he is good for like 10 min. WOW!


The girls and Brinlee (Maddie's friend) after the
Christmas recital.




We put on the Nativity at Grammy's house this year.

Well, I'm back! I jsut thought I'd give a quick update, I'll post pics later.
Jason had surgery, all went well, his shoulder is doing great. He did get a minor
infection and a itchy rash 2 weeks after, but all is well now.

Madison Joy turned 9 years old. She had a fun party at the Movies with her
friends and a family party at home.

I stepped on a piece of plastic ( I think) and it broke off in my foot, I hobbled
around for a week before I couldn't stand it any more. I went to the Doctor and they
numbed my foot (yeooowch!) and opened up the cut and dug around in it, she
found a small something in it and that was it. Cameron prayed for my foot and
low and behold, today it felt much better!

The Girls played beautiful Christmas songs at the Concert on Saturday

Well I think that is all for now. Pictures will come soon!

I just want to say how thankful I am for my life. Life is truly beautiful. Sometimes I find myself gripping about the little things that go wrong, or just the every day things of life with four kids, but I have so much, and the good out weighs the bad by so much.
I figure, you can take the hard things and be mad and frustrated, or you can take the good and run with it. I admire people who do that, who take life as it comes and deal with it in a positive way, I really hope to be there some day. But in the meantime, while I am working on that, my life is good, great, wonderful!

This is a LADY in our ward, she has been dressing as
Captain Jack for Halloween for a few years. She is the best ever.
She really looks the part and can act the part too! Everyone that sees her
is blown away at how authentic she looks. p.s. I asked her permission to post her pics on my blog.
