{Friday Five & Five...}


 1. Went to Wicked on Tuesday we left tuesday afternoon got there in time for dinner and headed to wicked it was OZsome!! {cheesy I know} it really was amazing can't wait to go to New York someday and see more and it again! After we headed home and got back about 2 in the morning.... Loved the good laughs, friends and a night out.



2. I got brave yesterday and took all four kids to see Kung Fu Panada 2 ...so cute and if your family has anything to do with adoption you'll cry well I did it was so cute! Had some awesome lines in it too! Then we went to the park and McD's for dinner the kids loved it!
{D was at a business conference}
some of my favorite lines from the movie were: 
The Soothsayer:  
Your story may not have such a happy beginning but that doesn't make you who you are, it is the rest of your story, who you choose to be.

 po: You got to let go of the stuff from past, because it just doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is what you choose to be now.

when you follow the noble path, anything is possible.

3. I totally collected two cereal pin numbers to get a free t-shirt ha ha I love free stuff!! I can always use a pj shirt lol!!  Made me miss the days of the prizes in the cereal boxes anybody else miss those treasures??

4. My sister took my two older kids to her house to play this afternoon thanks Dj. Then D took the three older ones to the farm to take them horseback riding! So K2 and I went running and I got some things done...well actually right now I'm sitting here ha ha....Anyway I was outside watering the garden I could hear the phone ringing a few times and the thought came to me what if one of the kids got hurt riding??? So I came in and D called right as soon as I got in...... from the Hospital.......... M fell of his horse when it started to trot and his teeth went through his lip so he got glued {instead of stitches} Weird how I had that feeling before I came in! I had to bribe him over the phone to take the medicine the dr. was giving him...
poor M didn't have a good day to start with!!

5. I CANNOT wait for our slc trip!!! a little break just D and I and the kids are all staying with there favorite peoples :) This mom needs the time out! Summer is wearing me out already :)  
how many days till school starts? lol.

6. Swim lessons are over for the summer again the kids did great M especially he actually stayed with his instructor so thats big :0  and L loves the water so she is happy anytime she gets in the water! and K not his favorite thing but he is getting the basics he can swim better then me!
my crazies
7. I can't believe how gossip spreads and gets bigger and bigger. I've watched it over and over..... the embellished tale that people don't even know what they are talking about and they make it up as they go and the story gets bigger and bigger as it goes so unfair. gossip.Unless we've walked in there shoes I'm pretty sure we have no idea what they are going through.......If we put ourselves in the position of who we are talking about would you be doing any talking ....spreading...embellishing?? it hurts. stop it.

8. This looks so good..Want to try it...click the pic for recipe.

9. I think I really need another baby girl there are so many cute things out there...ps if your done shouldn't you "feel" done?? What if I don't. 
aren't these adorable!!!

10. Love this quote ....
Without the rough patches in life we wouldn't learn and grow and be who we are. Life isn't always smooth its the rough that makes us tough and helps us help others...

such is life.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND..

Love this post :) I LOVE those baby girl shoes - so cute! And The ABC's of Genuine Happiness - always a good reminder of where I can change and improve and focus on the things that'll make me happier. As always, thanks for sharing!

PS. As I was sitting here absently listening to the music on your blog, the 2nd song started and I got a little teary eyed listening to the melody before the lyrics even started. I think it was the spirit bearing witness to me of the truthfulness of the message in the lyrics and it's wonderful to be surprised like that with an overwhelming feeling of gratefulness for the truths that I know to be true :)

About feeling done...I don't know how it works for everyone. We know we're done because we have to be for health reasons. It hurts, really bad. I've struggled a whole lot with it. However, we both know we're done. I guess Heavenly Father will tell you whenever you need to hear it. I couldn't think of better parents for a kid to have, though, than you and D.

You always have the best quotes on your blog, I love it. Love you, too!

I think you're braver for taking 4 kids to that crazy park alone! My kids love it but I can't handle the stress of watching all of them with a bazillion other kids there.

I picked a froot loops shirt, but I won't just be wearing it for pj's - love that you don't even have to pay s&h anymore!

We just saw Wicked yesterday and I loved it too! That's so brave to take all 4 to a movie, I don't think I am that brave with only 2:)
