I am amazed at how fast life goes by. We certainly have had many adventures, travels, and growth experiences! I always hear that parents always mess up their first kid and I have done my best to prove that wrong. I think I have done a pretty good job! I try not to argue and become a teenager when she makes snarky remarks and I try to listen without getting mad. Miriam is pretty darn awesome!<br />
I don't know what to say about her. She is helpful, conscious of what needs to be done, willing and able! She is growing up so fast. She has a lot of confidence to still build in herself and I hope I am helping not hindering that process. She is a quick learner and is getting pretty good with piano! Almost as good as I am (not that I have much skill). She is also almost as tall as me! I hope she passes me soon! :) Here is a present of my 12 year old Young Woman with her new 31 bag she got for her birthday!<br />

My heart is so full to have her as a daughter! She is beautiful and much smarter than I was at her age! She has a growing testimony and I believe she will stay faithful throughout her life!<br />
I love you Miss Mimi!! (p.s. she doesn't like to be called that anymore -except for Emma-!

Well with Facebook being so popular these days I realized when I posted this last one, that I hadn't ever even put anything up here about Emma's birth, or about many other things, so I thought I would just do a picture post. Most people reading this already have seen these but here you go! :)Emily Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14709846815761269496noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36261786.post-10029087009188502442013-01-16T21:33:00.000-05:002013-01-16T21:33:50.068-05:00Newest addition Nine days ago a cute, friendly cat found us in the cul-de-sac. He (we thought it was a girl) wanted to be pet and wanted to follow us around. I didn't want him to let him go and get hit or die, so I called animal control and had him picked up. The two hours it took for them to get here, this little guy got in our hearts and we almost didn't let him go! However we decided to wait the allotted time and go get him if no one else did and....Today....<br />
We welcomed our newest addition to the family today. He doesn't have a name yet, since we can't agree on anything, but one thing is for sure! We are glad we got him! <br />

I am again at awe and overwhelmed with gratitude for what the early saints went through. Their faith is inspiring! They worked hard, they had great faith and they sacrificed much. I am so grateful for them, and grateful for the gospel that I have been blessed to have my whole life. Watching these makes me realize the great responsibility I have to share what I know with others and to teach my girls the truth, and how to recognize the truth through the spirit so that they can also know! I know that this gospel is the truth, I know that there is a prophet on the earth, in Thomas S Monson, who talks to God, and who leads us in faith to become closer to our Savior, Jesus Christ. I am grateful for the atonement of the Savior, that allows us to repent and become better. And by which we will be able to be resurrected and return to our Heavenly Father! I am so very grateful today and wanted to share. </div>Emily Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14709846815761269496noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36261786.post-11190725824235770502011-11-01T12:32:00.005-04:002011-11-01T12:46:56.771-04:00Halloween<div>Halloween seemed to go on forever this year! We had a few things that we went to and dressed up for, so it was fun. Ward 'Fall Festival', Dunham's Halloween party, and Trick or Treating with Carabello's. Yesterday was rushed and raining so no pictures of then, and Miriam wouldn't dress up or trick-or-treat anyway, so there you go! LOL We had fun all weekend! Here are pictures of all our costumes!

Bunny ears, coiled heart headband, leprechaun hat etc, and on Christmas the nativity is surrounding it and the frog watches on the infant Savior. We love looking at it and seeing what the frog will be wearing! At the beginning of the year we kept a watch out to see what would be next, and we noticed that they didn't put anything up for Valentine's Day. It was puzzling and I wondered if anything was wrong with the family...I kept looking for changes.</div><div>About a month ago, as we passed leaving church, a thought came to me that we should write them a letter telling them how much we enjoy looking at their frog and how it brings joy to us each season! So we did!! We also put that we hope we can continue to enjoy it for years to come. So after the girls reminded me over and over for the next several weeks, we finally wrote it signed the Chacon Family. We were going to mail it but kept forgetting (notice a trend!?) so Carlos suggested dropping it off.</div><div>Two weeks ago we went to deliver it but they didn't answer so we left the note at the door.</div><div>Easter Sunday came and we were late for church ( I greatly dislike being late to things) and so I was a bit upset, and as we passed the 'frog house' we saw bunny ears on the frog and a sign on the tree that said, Happy Easter CHACON FAMILY! It was so sweet!!! <3 <3 I was so touched, I had to hold back the tears!</div><div>On the way home, we stopped by to tell them Thank you and meet them. So we went to the door and they knew who we were right when they answered the door. It was a younger lady, not much older than me ;) who answered. I was expecting an elderly couple. And she told me that she was grateful for the letter. She told us that her mom and been in charge of the frog and that she had passed away from cancer in Jan. That is why we didn't see his decorations. Our letter prompted her to take charge of the task!! She really appreciated it!</div><div>Her dad was there as well and they told us that he and his wife had gone to the mountains 20 years ago and they got 'Frank' there. I don't know if she has been decorating him that long, but anyway. It was just really neat to know and to meet them and so sweet for them to thank us that way! They both had tears in their eyes and I did as well as we took pictures, talked a little and wished each other Happy Easter!</div><div>I know that the Holy Ghost prompted me to send that letter to them so that they know someone else appreciated what their mother/wife had done. I think it was a nice way of honoring her and keeping a memory of her!</div><div>I am thankful for situations like this that remind us how Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love us individually and remind us when we show love to one another!</div><div>Thank you 'Frank the frog' and Mrs. Crump for making us smile!!!</div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw2u_hqmwnvL9z711zd7Yxj2ysq8eMJGiovrlTmb7D0UC5IbYeM86J-kIOa8AqBku9fUcViMysZAl_S_4Q83-ESOAy8KXOLzipHqMV4SAb_AryuyLx9vmofe_Mcmy1kK8OuJ_-/s1600/DSC01232.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgw2u_hqmwnvL9z711zd7Yxj2ysq8eMJGiovrlTmb7D0UC5IbYeM86J-kIOa8AqBku9fUcViMysZAl_S_4Q83-ESOAy8KXOLzipHqMV4SAb_AryuyLx9vmofe_Mcmy1kK8OuJ_-/s400/DSC01232.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601575757518718962" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBzCHhFhQS1IC2yRsBkaYPZcr9q7q1n557rB0w_HXsZLFcyKtSZGLSWP0nPWgqY8YlW7A9R3UggDGEEnmBmpUdrcDbhXlsGhrzSWXaYZZNjuIDk9D2ZJxHxdYG6iTkYuIX0bmh/s1600/DSC01231.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBzCHhFhQS1IC2yRsBkaYPZcr9q7q1n557rB0w_HXsZLFcyKtSZGLSWP0nPWgqY8YlW7A9R3UggDGEEnmBmpUdrcDbhXlsGhrzSWXaYZZNjuIDk9D2ZJxHxdYG6iTkYuIX0bmh/s400/DSC01231.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601575754693035058" /></a>Sorry you can't see Carlos or Jack very well, but there you go ;)Emily Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14709846815761269496noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36261786.post-9703847881677069892010-09-05T20:02:00.004-04:002010-09-05T20:27:54.154-04:00MIriam's baptism<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOkprWoMCyr3B9CzxWulWgiTiaRJeWyeiTnGVjoO5Ioj638yFW3g5evXnMCMJxfGSD-sEhHuY0pxUFYcm7WetQ1Kf6yjoBKmyu49QNaxWI4-Xqppjn1JoAMh78tCIvzXsgzCPG/s1600/DSC00057.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOkprWoMCyr3B9CzxWulWgiTiaRJeWyeiTnGVjoO5Ioj638yFW3g5evXnMCMJxfGSD-sEhHuY0pxUFYcm7WetQ1Kf6yjoBKmyu49QNaxWI4-Xqppjn1JoAMh78tCIvzXsgzCPG/s400/DSC00057.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5513585314655430866" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Miriam and Daddy right before the baptism :) </div>We recently had the opportunity to celebrate with Miriam as she made the decision to be baptized a member of the <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.lds.org">Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints</a>! It was a wonderful day and week as we spent with family. So many were able to come, and my only regret is that I let everyone else take pictures and didn't get many myself! I did however get the classic baptism pictures for her to remember! She was able to share the day with a classmate, and a new convert. It was very special. She is such a wonderful daughter of Heavenly Father and Carlos and I felt that again as he was able to lead her into the water to be baptized and also confirm her and bless her to recieve the Holy Ghost as her constant companion. I am so grateful for the blessings of the gospel and family and that we have a loving Heavenly Father who allows us to experience such joy here on earth and that it can last for eternity through the blessings of the temple!

I can't believe she is 8 years old! She is going to be baptized and I am so happy for her! She has been growing up so fast and it has been amazing to see since the time she could talk, how fast she learns. She is so smart! So fun! And oh so very helpful! All kids have their moments when they don't like their little sister's or parents really, but she for the most part is kind and creative! <div> I am not very good with words and even though I have been thinking about this post for weeks, I can't seem to put into words what I want to say about her. I love her! I don't like it when we are apart! She has been so wonderful this last few months while I have been sick in early pregnancy. She gets me things I need, massages my back and head, sings to me, and reads to me! She once offered to totally take care of the girls so I didn't have to do anything. She got breakfast and helped get them dressed! I did help a little but she is getting so independent! She is a great student and all the teachers love her. She is so beautiful and, well, basically one of the best kids you'll ever meet!! </div><div>I don't have a picture scanner so I can't show you of when she was born, but I will try to get a picture collage up soon of the ones I have on disc. </div><div>We love you Miriam, keep singing, keep smiling and most of all, keep being YOU!!!!</div><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdj3y2oF141QtSpKpvOcUVOaug2WdCB4_bHRR2p4ksiBoEXYSHSC0Az-2cKx1inIj8aShJOpVAX4W4Rr309EFMS6UfQVgV23C1LE_FtJfU04Fb3XhC1KkVQClzom2xlF_F3UdD/s1600/DSC01402.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdj3y2oF141QtSpKpvOcUVOaug2WdCB4_bHRR2p4ksiBoEXYSHSC0Az-2cKx1inIj8aShJOpVAX4W4Rr309EFMS6UfQVgV23C1LE_FtJfU04Fb3XhC1KkVQClzom2xlF_F3UdD/s400/DSC01402.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5470720647001081106" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Easter 2010</div>Emily Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14709846815761269496noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36261786.post-8381189521662758472010-03-07T20:50:00.001-05:002010-03-07T20:52:24.698-05:00Tender Mercies Mormon message<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); ">Surely I have noticed the Lord's tender mercies in my life.

From the NBC12 site <br />"In the Richmond area, the last December winter storm event with at least 6 inches of snow occurred in December 1982. <br /><br />The last December winter storm event with at least 8 inches of snow occurred in December 1966. <br /><br />The last December winter storm event with at least 10 inches of snow occurred in December 1917."<br /><br />This time around, the amount is ranked in the top 10 since records began! We made a cardboard sled for Laurie and I didn't get a picture...hmmm oh well.<br /><br /><div><embed src="http://widget-6f.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" quality="high" scale="noscale" salign="l" wmode="transparent" flashvars="cy=bb&il=1&channel=3314649325784015471&site=widget-6f.slide.com" style="width:400px;height:320px" name="flashticker" align="middle"></embed><div style="width:400px;text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=3314649325784015471&map=1" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-6f.slide.com/p1/3314649325784015471/bb_t056_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide1.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=3314649325784015471&map=2" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-6f.slide.com/p2/3314649325784015471/bb_t056_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide2.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a> <a href="http://www.slide.com/pivot?cy=bb&at=un&id=3314649325784015471&map=F" target="_blank"><img src="http://widget-6f.slide.com/p4/3314649325784015471/bb_t056_v000_s0un_f00/images/xslide42.gif" border="0" ismap="ismap" /></a></div></div>Emily Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14709846815761269496noreply@blogger.com4
