Yard Signs

I've never been one for political yard signs so my blog will have to do. I've made up my mind ~

I tried so hard to be open minded about this but everything I came across just pushed me further in his direction. I know that 95% of you that read my blog disagree and so I am glad that we can all agree to disagree. Dave is still on the fence. I honestly have NO idea which way he'll go. He does this every election and ends up surprising me each time. He is extremely thorough~it will be interesting....

Don't be apologetic for your choice that is the beauty of our country. Now who do you favor with Rossi/Gregoire? ;)

Good for you! I'm glad you found the answers you needed. Chance and I are still on the fence. Everytime I think I've got it nailed down ... I start to doubt.

I am glad you made the choice for yourself. I think that too many poeple just follow the crowds or what they think we are "supposed "to do in our "culture"- but that is so far from the truth and it is so imporant for each person to do the research and make the choice for themselves!
A friend of mine came over for Halloween tonight and was shocked to find out that I had voted for Barack. She said "Well, I follow the prophet". It is that kind of ingnorance that drives me INSANE!

53% of the popular vote equaling 66,882,230 Americans. 365 electoral college votes to 173. We, like you, are proud to be part of the majority who voted Obama/Biden.

Mother's Day

One of the things I really wanted for Mother's Day this year was a picture of me with my children.OK, I really should have thought of something less stressful: "Come here Tucker" "There's a piece of candy on the chair" "Say, Thomas the train I love you" "Please come back..." "No more pictures for me" Thanks to Dave for his patience, we did get some decent shots. I must write for the record how grateful I am to be a mother. There is nothing on earth I would rather be doing right now. I honestly love them so much. Thank you NB, I just had to steal this from your blog: Somebody said it takes about six weeks to get back to normal after you’ve had a baby. That Somebody doesn’t know that once you’re a mother, “Normal,” is history. Somebody said you learn how to be a mother by instinct That Somebody never took a three-year-old shopping. Somebody said you don’t need an education to be a mother. That Somebody never helped a fourth

Child Rearing Race

My visiting brother from Utah and I were left without spouses for 4 days. This wouldn't have been such a big deal, but our kids had already been together 24/7 for 6 days and our boys couldn't think of anything better to do than fight. I don't know about you, but 1 entire day of fighting is enough to drive one mad--now times that by 4. Near the end of the week(and our rope) my brother and I had a heart to heart and posed the question~what in life could be more mentally difficult than this? The only thing I could think of (now remember, we'd just run the Ragnar) was running a marathon. Someone once told me that if you could mentally get through a marathon, you could get through anything. So, I put it to the test...I ran a... OK , not a marathon, but a 1/2. Raising children and running difficult races are so much the same. They both require so much of you emotionally, physically and mentally and yet the end reward is so gratifying. I can't express the joy I felt yester

Let's just call this paybacks

Dave got the heads up this morning that we were going to have a couple of "special" talks on reverence today as the Stake Presidency was a little concerned about how loud our sacrament meetings have become. I thought ~ great, let's prep the kids ~ I told them that they were to be on their best behavior, no snacks, no toys, no talking, you get the idea... The meeting went pretty smooth until the Bishop got up. He very tenderly started talking about how important it is that we teach our children about the sacrament...it was at that moment that my family fell a part. Eden and Luke started fighting and Liza and Tucker started screaming---did I mention we were on the second row? I grabbed Luke and put him in a body hold and motioned for Dave to get Tuck and Liza out. Dave left with Liza and Tuck (so I thought...) and next thing you know, Tucker is up on the stand running back and forth behind the Bishop. My sweet friend sitting next to me jumped up to get Tuck, but he of cours
