Happy 10th Birthday Dillon!

10 years ago today I became a mom!

Happy Birthday Dillon Archibald!

You are a great son and I love to watch you grow and learn!  You are amazing!

I hope this next year is a happy one for you!

Love,

Mom

A Good Old Beaver Too!

I went to Woodbadge this last two weeks.  It is a leadership training program in the Boy Scouts of America.  I currently serve as cubmaster.

What a life changing experience this was for me.  When you get there they sort you into critters.  I am a Beaver.  I now have 5 tickets (goals) I am to work on for the next 18 months or less to complete the Woodbadge experience and receive my Woodbadge awards.

If Any of you can ever go, it is worth it!

Oct Activities

The kids have been having fun.

Here are some of the fun things we have done so far.

Fire House Open House

Pumpkin Walk 2014

Ogden Temple Dedication

18 Years ago I had the opportunity to go to the Mount Timpangoas Temple Dedication.   Today we had the opportunity to attend the LDS Ogden Temple Dedication.  The children have to be 8 yrs old to go so only Dillon got to go with us.

It was very neat and it made me think of my 1st time I went 18 years ago.  

Today we got to hear from Pres. Monson and Elder Eyering.   We went to the 10am session and it was fun to get to take Dillon with us!

Home Improvements

Well today we did some home improvements.

Our living room had no lights other then lamps.  And even those did not have a switch to turn them on.  It also gets hot and stuffy, so we decide to get a ceiling fan.  This ceiling fan has been in the garage for 4 months waiting for the rest of the supplies so we could run the wires, add the new switch and such.

But After 4 holes cut into the walls and ceiling we now have the fan and it cooled off the living room a lot better then the box fan we have been using.

We also installed a shelf in the kitchen so that I had some more storage space and I had more counter space to work with!

Yes I know there is still painting and such to do, but one project at a time.

Thank You Dan for all your hard work today!  I am loving it!
