Wicked Weekend










I've lived in the NW for almost 15 years and it took my mom flying up and tickets to Wicked for me to finally get to Portland. What a beautiful city!!! The show was amazing and so were the sights!

Cute pictures! Wicked comes here to Denver in October - Scott and I have tickets and I'm SO looking forward to it! Glad you had a fun girls' trip with your mom and Eden. I love Eliza's sweater - Adyson had a green one quite similar :) Cute family, Bianca!

I recognize that waterfall! Did you guys take the trails to the top? Its changed since my youth. The falls used to look differently and then some huge rocks shifted and fell to the pool below. I need to go back again soon. Maybe we'll do that this Spring. Its been too long.
I really want to see Wicked, too. Hoping to convince Chance to come with me.

I tried to read your blog a while ago and I swear it was private.? Did I dream that? Anywho, I am back to loving the updates on your family. I am so glad you got to go see Wicked. It is my favorite! I can't tell you how many times a day I find myself saying, "That's what makes me so nice!" LOVE IT! I just read many of you posts and about died reading the one about Liza's 911 call! That is so scary! I am thrilled she is ok. I loved catching up! Love you.

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
