Yesterday...

I must have had spring fever! I spent a good part of the day making 4 batches of strawberry jam (yummm). And then after cleaning up that mess, then helping kids with homework, then making a new mess with dinner, and then running to the post office last minute to mail my $5 owed in taxes! I came home 9:00 at night and sewed this apron! Whew... It was a FULL day! But I enjoyed most of the things AND I did reward myself with a Jamba juice! So all is well!
This apron is my version of a dishtowel apron Lucy made. I love her cute little creatures on her pockets, but I couldn't come up with one! I was also worried that the print was already so wacky that a creature wouldn't work! Anyway, I fretted and so the pocket is bare. I have one more apron cut out to make, so if anyone has a pocket suggestion I would love to hear it!

Popcorn Popping

So this was taken yesterday afternoon! It was a beautiful day. 70 degrees or so, just perfect!

Now today.... I don't even want to talk about!

SNOW! It's just not fair!!

Angelic needs...

I saw this on another blog and thought it was hilarious! What you do is type your name with "needs" after it in Google and see what Google says you "need"!

This is what Google says I need...
1. Angelic needs to keep the beer moving and can't (Umm... I do??)
2. Angelic needs to be a model (Now that's better, but ...)
3. Angelic needs to be added to the tour title of Simply Christmas With Amy Grant and Vince Gill. (How do you suppose I do that??)

Unfortunately with my name being "angelic" the search wasn't as good as it could be, but I liked Shawn's a little better!

Shawn needs...
1. Shawn needs sleep… badly.
2. Shawn needs to decide who he wants to spend his life with???? ( HEY!! I thought he already did!!!)
3. Shawn Needs Our Help.
4. Shawn needs to be seen live to really appreciate her. (Is there something you need to tell me dear???)
5. the 4 things Shawn needs to work on are calories, calories, calories and ...
6. Shawn needs to keep his pants up! or watch more television. (wha-huh???)

Well, that was fun! Google search your needs and tell me your favorite!

I also went to a card swap tonight and it was a ton more fun than I thought it would be! I had a great time! I'll try and take some pictures tomorrow and maybe post about it! FUN! FUN!

Night!

Here's another good quote...

"To hear is relatively simple. To heed and apply what is heard becomes life's perpetual challenge."
(Charles Didier, Ensign, Nov. 2005)

A Living Testimony of Christ
---------------------------------------------------
"Of all the things for which I feel grateful, one stands [above all the others]. That is a living testimony of Jesus Christ, the Son of the Almighty God, the Prince of Peace, the Holy One. . . .

"Jesus is my friend. He is my exemplar. He is my teacher. He is my healer. He is my leader. He is my Savior and my Redeemer. He is my God and my King.

"Gratefully, and with love, I bear witness of these things."

(Gordon B. Hinckley, "Come Listen to a Prophet's Voice: Gratitude," Friend, Nov. 2002, )
--------------------------------------------------

I LOVE to hear the Prophet's testimony! I think that that was my favorite part of conference! Hearing the strong testimonies of the speakers. I think that conference was extra good this year and I can't wait to get it on my ipod!! Unfortunately I zone if I am watching it, but to clean house and listen to conference, there's not much better!
