Together on my Birthday

This is our first family temple trip where all of the married children were able to attend together. With everyones hectic work schedules, planned vactions, & Loren leaving with his family for a 8 month job in Guam - today was our only chance to go together as a family to the temple. What a wonderful birthday present to spend my 28th birthday surrounded by the ones that I love in the temple together. This only streangths my testimony of the sealing powers of temple, that families really are forever, and that by going to the temple often that you will be blessed.

I had Wyatt write down my oldest daughter "Jolee" as my chosen loved one to save. We were told to shoot 3 controlled head shots to each hostage taker. Don't mess with me I am good at head shots. With NO chance of survival. That is why they call me "Sharp Shootin' Sara".

Hard Focus on the Front Sight!

My First Day

After I reluctantly left my 4 sweet babies in

Alaska and I hopped a plane to Las Vegas.

This was my first adventure

without any of my children - EVER!

I was off to FRONT SIGHT -

for a 4 day defensive hand gun course!

Which for any of you who haven't

ventured to Pahrump, Nevada you will find it

located in the middle of the DESERT!

And once you have reached "the middle"

you will look around to find that you are truly

in the middle of NOWHERE!

Nevertheless...

it's the perfect location to shoot stuff.

my sweet little baby girl, Kylee, right before I dropped her off

This is my first time ever holding /shooting a any hand gun!

I was so scared of shooting my gun the first day!

Thankfully my instructor helped talk me through it.

I was so tired from a LONG first day at Front Sight

that I passed out on the hotel bed

waiting for Peter to get my bag from the car.

He was only gone 5 minutes. Needless to say...

I slept in my clothes that first night - I was sooo TIRED!!!

my messy little baby face

I'm up in heaven when I'm in your fond embrace

Dave's DYNOMITE DRINKS!

All of my children love to spending the night

@ Grammy & Grampy's House

not only because it is always so much fun,

but in the morning after they wake up

they know that Grampy will make

his famous SUPER JUICE

with whatever fruit he's got just lying around.

You name it...

bananas, berries, kiwi, grapes, apples,

pineapple, cantaloupe, honeydew, oranges .....

So it is never the same juice twice.

But the kids just go wild for his juice drink!

Ethan's testimonial on Grampy's Super Juice:

"When I drink Grampy's SUPER JUICE all day

I feel like a TRANSFORMER!"
(he says as he is flexing his muscles for us all to see)

The LUCK of the IRISH

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Today is the day to wear green

so wear it if you got it!

Jolee is all decked out in many shades of green

Although none of her clothes match...

she is just so adorable!

I feel like I could just pinch her right now!
But the rule is you can only pinch someone

who is NOT wearing green.

Oddly enough today is also class picture day

Funny day to take school pictures don't you think?

Everybody smile & say PICKLES!
