HAPPY BIRTHDAY.........

TO MY BEAUTIFUL JAYLA

My baby girl is turning 8! Wow. She is such a wonderful daughter, sister and friend. In honor of the big 8, here are 8 things I love about her...............

1. Her love of learning
2. Her desire to choose the right
3. Her love for her family
4. Her intelligence
5. Her willingness to help
6. Her excitement for the gospel
7. Her desire to be baptized
8. Just because she is my daughter!
(and of course there are SO many more reasons)

I love you Jay!

Introducing...........

Our new dog, Chip. He is a Shi-poo, and 2months old.

We had to find a better home for Sassy. She needed a bigger yard and a family who had more time to give her the training she needed. We found her a home with a couple who had a teenage daughter, and they were so excited to have her. That happened Fri. night.

Jayla was the only one who was pretty sad about letting Sassy go, so Dan (and me, too) decided we would get a smaller more manageable dog and have Jayla be the primary care taker. He is for the whole family, but Jayla got to name him and take the primary role as "pack" leader. He will only get to be about 10lbs full grown.

I'll blog more later about our new addition.

ARGH!

My camera is broken! I'm pretty sure it had some help from some little people around the house. I just don't know what to do..... with them OR the camera.

HELP..........

I am (as always) trying to find the best ways to organize things...... ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. So I was wondering what is your best organizing tip, technique, ritual or whatever.

Please share and help me.

Thanks in advance. I love you ALL!
