ONE REASON WHY I LOVE MY HUSBAND!

Ok. so after we moved we needed a entertaiment center for our t.v. ( which was at the moment just sitting on the floor) thus our conversation:

Me: hon, i am having a baby shower here next week and need to either move that t.v. out of the way or buy an entertaimnet center.

Mark: i am not moving that t.v. again, ( the t.v. is very heavy -it took four men to move it) we will go looking tomorrow.

(Tommorow- after looking at many many centers)

Mark: why don't i just build one, then we can get what we exactly want and all it will cost is the lumber.

Me: fine. when are you going to have the time? because the shower is next week and all you have is this weekend.

(Mark rarely takes a saturday off- so this was going to be interesting)

Mark: hopefully, some of my jobs will be done by friday and saturday i will plan to build it.

Me: Are you going to have enough time to finish it on saturday?

Mark: i don't see why i shouldn't- at least the main frame of it.

Me: that is why i married you.

Mark: so i can build stuff for you?

Me: Yup, that's pretty much why.


mark finished the entertainment center within 4 hours on saturday and we then stained and distressed it. He still has to build the doors for it but at least i have my t.v. off the floor. Thank you my love! so here is the finished project that i again have been late on getting up on my post.







i also finished a project of my own- i wanted to fill in the big arches that look into our living room from our formal dinning room. i found these old windows at an antique shop and sanded them down and painted them.

THE 80'S- THEY'RE BAACK



(1) 80's ward party, (7) wild women-3 which are prego, (1) bonnie tyler song, (3) practices and (1) richard simmons later and we have 1 awesome AIR BAND. we rocked the party and won the competition- ok so there were only 2 other bands to compete against, but hey we at least looked hot! sorry to the many fans who requested to see us perform- but i cannot seem to find the fire wire to my lovely camcorder so i am unable to show you at this time the hysterical performance. As it is i have posted these pictures a lot later than i told you i would, but finally you can at least can see our wonderul attire that brings back soo many memories!

A SIMPLE PRAYER THAT WILL MAKE YOU SMILE.

Each night I love to hear Jaron say his prayers. they are often very random and can go on for a while. so far we know for sure that he loves himsef and his spiderman, since his likes to repeat it several times before his ends his prayer.

"dear heavenly father
thankful for this day
i love daddy
love mommy
i love myself
i don't love brinley"

me: "jaron that's not nice to say"

"ok, i love brinley- but she bugs me
i love jacers
i love spiderman
love pappa and grandma
have 2 pappas and 2 grandmas
thankful for santa he brings me present
thankful for easter bunny
i have 2 choices
cause i need to make right choice
going to see grandma tomorrow and i'm going to be excited
cause i love myself
i love spiderman
i fight bad guys
i yell at brinley
mommy says no
uhmm cause i love myself
i love jesus
jesus died
nephi died
my fish died and he went down the toilet
in the name of jesus christ
amen"
