Tender Mercies Mormon message

Surely I have noticed the Lord's tender mercies in my life. I am so grateful for the blessings this knowledge, and the gospel of Jesus Christ, gives me in my life! Now I just need to do better at bringing myself closer to Him.

Camille

The last semester of college at BYU before I got married, I roomed with Camille, Stacy, and Sarah (no last names!) and a year ago I found out Camille and Sarah were living in the DC area. Sarah moved soon after that, but Camille didn't. We saw her a couple of times there and had her come visit us once, it has been great! And now she is leaving... :( BUT it is a good thing because.... SHE'S GETTING MARRIED!!!!

This is a picture of her and her fiance, Eric and us at their engagement party on Saturday! She is moving to Indiana, where he is living. They met through a missionary companion of Camille's.

Sorry about the glare...and we are a lot less dressed up because we spent the whole day traveling and unsuccessfully visiting DC! :)

So happy for you girl!!

time's up!

We were playing a game last night and parts of it were timed, and every time Carlos said 'time's up' Laurie did this...

The first time it was because she thought we were saying 'arms up' but then she just did it for fun! :) And NO I wasn't picking my nose..I had some food on my finger and I was getting it off! LOL, Oh and her favorite song was Let's Groove by Earth Wind and Fire. Laurie loves to be the center of attention. She talks a lot and the girls love her!

The girls have been sickish lately and Miriam, while she feels a bit sick herself, has taken on the role of nurturer very well. She is so sweet! Elaine is very upset she is missing school and Laurie loves to snuggle with mommy so it is ok to her that I will! :)

Carlos got a new responsibility at work and has been very busy! It has been hard for me because with his other jobs I have been able to call him and talk any time. Now..he barely answers his phone! I am starting to get used to it but it has been frustrating.

I am trying to get in a good groove with Scentsy and am getting more ideas and trying to work hard to make it work. I will be going to the training in July so I think that will help me get to be a better sale person!

Ok well that is that... Here is a picture of Elaine's nails! When Mary-Carmen was here a few weeks ago...it was her birthday and she took Rose-Marie and then wanted to take Miriam but she didn't want to so she took Elaine, to get their nails manicured!! They just painted Elaine's nails and she LOVED it! The guy put the design on for free! :)

long time....again

I think about blogging all the time but then...it takes time to sit down and think of something to say that it worth reading...so I don't! However, I need to put up some pics and or videos, which ever I have time to do today.

The girls are doing well in school and Laurie is a talking queen! She knows what she wants and isn't afraid to use force to get it, especially with the girls! LOL Right now they all have coughs, and fevers...but...other than that they are good.

Carlos is really busy with work and scouts, and I am trying to keep the house neat (unsuccessfully) and my Scentsy business growing... it is OK.

I am super excited for Ana-Christine and Abinadi to have their baby this month!! I hope I get to go down and see them!

Well anyway, here is a video of Laurie attempting the 'lizard face' that Papa does! I was trying to get her to do that and also to say 'thats funny' because it is so cute the way she says it!
