{Me thinks 10 for tuesday}

Holy I have good intentions to do my regular posts but the weeks are flying by and I'm always running here an there but here I am so today its a 10 on Monday but it sure is close to Tuesday:)

a good way to get through some days eh...

1. My sister did an awesome tribute to my uncle here who passed away his funeral is this week  ...some people have such job like lives so many trials...we'll sure miss him and love him. cancer sucks.
yes it is and you never know how long it will be....

2. Four teenagers were killed in an car accident in the community 10 minutes from us, so tragic it breaks my heart! I can't even imagine two 16 year olds and two 14 years olds heartbreaking... 

3. My kids have been partying it up with all the fun new neighbors we have gotten over the past couple of months...they are loving it...the kids are having so much fun....ex. here where I've heard the words "that was the best party I've ever been too " so apparently I have a lot to learn from you Rhonda:) cause our parties suck ha ha!

4. Got family pics done tonight by the talented Pam I AM here my order for my outfit didn't come in time every other time it has always come in like 3 days yeah not so this time .......thankfully the kids' came not sure we pulled it all off or together guess we'll see ....the vision was there I promise oh well:) I'm sure it was just fine! Thanks whit for helping me out!

5. Got to go do some fun product shots with L this past week too for some hair flowers..... that was fun:) with the equally talented Kinsey who also is my awesome 2nd councilor in the primary with me. She really is so amazing and organized and on top of things.... I'm just praying she doesn't have her baby early cause our primary program is on sunday and she has done an amazing job putting it together! {selfish I know but she has at least only 2 weeks you never know} we are excited for her though!! I got to go to a baby shower for her last Friday night so fun to get out and so happy for her:) ...My beautiful girl....who is growing up way to fast....

6. I got a speeding ticket for the first time in my life in our small town {where I was actually pulled over} and guess what it wasn't even a REAL police officer it was a grouchy PEACE officer ...I guess it was about time I don't exactly waste time driving:) Serves me right I guess still now fun 132 later and 20 over ouch!

7. Have to start thinking about halloween M is going to be super mario and he can't wait I'm just happy he doesn't want to be buzz for the third year in a row, L want's to be Dorothy from the wizard of oz so we are working on that, K's is a secret :) and K2 were working on it should be fun the kids are super excited!

8.8 new babies within 6 months on my block pretty much every house surrounding us except this one of course ....I can't keep up..remembering meals and gifts I'm slowly getting there..then more come..all so cute and  so fun!

9. My sister and her husband and baby just got back from England {his whole family is from there} after being gone for two weeks ...sigh...someday I'll go....a little jealous yes I was happy for them though! Lucky kids!

10. Love these reminders.....

and
I just love my kids some of my favorite moments are looking at those little innocent peacefully sleeping faces and wondering who they will be, what they are dreaming about, and hoping they know how much they are loved no matter what kind of day we had. And praying that we will all make it together where we ultimately want to be together forever! They are my greatest blessings in this life them and D....
and bonus 11. because we all need a good laugh ....or we might cry...seriously. what is this world coming too..

Have a great week....

I love that herald b lee quote. I saw it in pintrest, didn't pin it (don't think I had an account yet at the time) and then looked on everyone's for it, couldn't find it so yeah! thanks for posting that one. I love it. Now I don't have to search any more.
