I got tagged with "The Five"
The Five, ten years ago…

1. I had 2 kids and was so overwhelmed that I thought I would never have anymore.
2. I was living in our first home in Carrollton. It was 1700 square feet and so stinkin' cute. It was sooo easy to keep clean.
3. I was YW President and making some of the best friends of my life with the girls I had (Lynsi, Boots, Sharon, Lauralee, Molly, Amanda, Jaimee, Megan...shall I go on?).
4. I was a crossing gaurd working an hour a day and making 400 bucks a month to sit in the car and listen to the radio. Best job ever!
5. I was graduating from UNT with an education degree.

Five things on today’s “to do” list…
1. Make meal plans/grocery list for the week.
2. piano practice (for kids).
3. Some "action items" for calling.
4. Write some thank you notes.
5. schedule visiting teaching.

Five snacks I enjoy
1. anything with chocolate
2. granola bars
3. diet coke
4. popcorn
5. skinny cow dip bars (hello, only 80 calories!)

Five things I would do if I was a millionaire…
1. Save it. Sorry, I am a saver...very boring!
2. Go on a mission when we are retired (which we plan to do anyway!)
3. Hire a full time chef. Ya'll know how I feel about cookin'.
4. Invest in ikea stock. I love that place.
5. Air condition my attic to make room for more food storage.


Five places I have lived…
1. Richardson
2. Carrollton
3. Provo
4. Orem
5. Where I live now which I will not say on this blog.

Builders vs. Wreckers

Image
A little poem I heard from John Bytheway on a BYU fireside (on BYUTV) today. Makes me stop and go "hmmmmm....." I might have another resolution to add to my growing list..... Builders vs. Wreckers I passed one day through a lonely town And saw men tearing a building down. With a ho-heave-ho and a husky yell They swung at a beam and a side wall fell. I asked the foreman, “Are these men skilled- The kind you’d hire if you had to build?” “Oh no!” he chuckled, “No indeed- The common laborer is all I need.” “Why I can destroy in a day or two What builders have taken weeks to do.” I thought to myself as I went on my way “Which of these rolls have I tried to play? Am I the builder who works with care Strengthening lives by rule and square, Shaping my peers to a well made plan- Helping them do the best they can- Or am I a wrecker who walks around Content with the labor of tearing down?” -Author Unknown

She invited 14 fun friends to join in on the surprise. I wish I would have taken the time to take a picture of the cute chocolate fountain and home made cupcakes she made.  She had blown up about 20 balloons and when McKinley walked in to the house they jumped out and showered her with shredded paper. Then they went swimming.  Yes, in November and NO, they had not heated the pool. kiki and  Lexie   with Emily  and Molly  and Mallory  and Kylie H.  and Kaly   the Lloyd twins and Abbey  Megan  Kaylie W.  Michaela  and Kylie P who had celebrated her birthday with a party the night before.
