Temple or Bust!!!

So it is official I am temple worthy and temple bound! I just got out of my interview with the Stake President and I have my recommend in hand as you can see. I have waited a long time to go to the temple and since I've decided to go it can't come fast enough! I am very excited as you can tell from the chessy pictures! Anyway I just had to share my excitement with everyone!!

Happy Easter

Happy Easter!!! I have to say that Easter is my FAVORITE holiday ever! Easter has the best candy and the best clothes for my kids. I went to a passover dinner on Thursday and it was amazing! Even more reason to love this holiday! I will be having a passover dinner from now on. Here we are on our mini photo shoot. Enjoy!

Road Trip

Warning Picture Overload
Two weeks ago Me, Xavier, Bella, My sister Kristin, Alex, David, Daniel and My Dad went on a road trip. It was spring break in Idaho so we had the whole week to play. We started off by going to Bryce Canyon and Zion's national park the next day we went to the Grand Canyon which was unbelievable and then lastly we hit sin city. The pictures are reverse so sorry! We had such a great time and saw some amazing sights. We spent a lot of time in the car but with 3 movies playing at once how could we go wrong??

Xavier and Bella in the spa in our room.

X and B on the kid sized sling shot. They giggled they whole time! The kids got wrist bands to ride all the rides all day. They went on each ride at least 4 times each. It was sooo worth it!

This was pretty freaky sticking out over the ledge, Also the wind was picking up so that made it worse!

What a view.........of the Canyon!

Something about Idaho

I have been in Idaho for awhile now. In fact I'm almost ready to go back to New Jersey. In case you have never been to both places, (Idaho and New Jersey) they are quite different. I know this is a shock! I love walking into any store or restaurant and hearing country music playing in the background. I love that every checker at the grocery store, and I mean EVERY checker asks how you are and smiles every time. I love that traffic means you are stopped at the same light maybe twice. I love that Baja Fresh is right around the corner and Dairy Queen and Arby's and Jamba Juice. I love that you can get into an ambulance (yes I was in an ambulance with my Mom while I was here) and both the guys are members of the church and you just start talking about church and their missions. You NEVER meet strangers in New Jersey that are members?!? I forget what it's like to be in Idaho and be around family and members and nice people. I like it but I also like New Jersey and the exact opposite things that it offers that Idaho never can. It's been nice visiting but I'm ready to go home to my other family.
