Cub Scout Halloween Treats

This last week for scouts I made these cute Spider cupcakes I found on the Family Fun Website. The boys loved them and I thought they were a great Idea for Halloween. Yes I was proud of them so they got a whole background for their picture debut.


Heres the whole family of spiders. Aren't they cute!

Reflections of Christ

I found this on desert book's webpage. Just click on the title of this post and it will take you there. It is beautiful! The video tells the life of Christ through pictures and song. I just love this Gospel and the peace you feel when the spirit touches you and testifies again of the truthfulness of Christ. Take a few minutes and Check it out. It will uplift your day.

My Sister

Well this weekend Jame and I went down to Provo, and then down to Delta. We visited Nicole in Provo, and went out to lunch, and looked at Homecoming pictures. She had the homecoming dance Friday night and had a great time. She looked so pretty. After lunch we had ice cream at the creamery and met Jon, Nicole's boyfriend. He was a fun guy to get to know and we had a good time talking. After that we left so they could get to the Homecoming football game. Here a picture of her and Jon. To cute!After the trip to Provo we headed to Delta. One of James' old roommates and Big-O co workers, got married and was having their reception. This is kind of off subject but Delta is in the middle of no where!!! Anyway, it was good to see him and his new wife. We wish them both the best of luck in their new lives together.

Conference Weekend

Well, James and I went down to the Petersen's for Conference Breakfast!

We had a lot of fun and watched most of Conference. Heres a picture of some of the little cousins. They were videoing themselves and then would laugh and laugh when they watched it later. Here they are watching it.
My Grandma had just gotten back from a site seeing trip to Greece and lots of other countries. Heres my great uncle Willie looking at a book she brought back.
Now to finish on a fun note. Here is one of the boys just being a boy. They were so fun. Conference really was good and I loved the talks on being Patriotic and honoring Marriage I know thats a huge subject right now. If any of you are interested go to youtube and type in The BEST GIFT and you'll see a black screen with white writing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmZaHbGgXH8
I'm not sure if this link will work but I couldn't figure out how to post the video on my blog.
It's a political add created to protest marriage not between a man and woman. Its very nicely done and I think its very important to know where we stand so we can stand tall, and be a beacon to the world!

UTAH STATE VS. BYU

Well this post is old, but we went to the Utah State vs. BYU game a couple weeks ago. We had such a fun time. I was going to make this a nasty anti-BYU post but I have lost all of my adrenalin that I had more around game time. SO sorry everyone who waited for the crushing post. Anyway the game was awesome. As you know BYU was ranked 8th and Utah State is terrible. But man they came to play Saturday. The final score was 14-34. and for an 8th ranked team lets just say they played awful. Lets just say it's fun to be the underdogs, you can talk as much crap as you want and if you loose thats alright you were suppose to, but if you win YEA! You had a huge upset. Anyway it was really fun and we enjoyed the banter between the BYU fans.

Little Rupert

I received this email from James. HOLY COW how cute is this little guy. Just thought I would share his picture and his story.

This tiny deer was delivered by Cesarean section at a wildlife hospital
after his mother was killed by a car.
Little Rupert, who is so small he can fit in an adult's hand, was born after vets failed in their battle to save his mother.

At just six inches tall and weighing just over a pound, he is now in an incubator in the intensive care unit at Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Buckinghamshire.

He has only recently opened his eyes. I did find the article on Rupert, and his story is true. He was placed with a foster mom, but he didn't make it through the night.
