Birds Birds Where art thou?

We made Bird treats and hung them on the trees for them to eat on. So far no takers but we enjoyed getting messy in Peanut butter and bird seed. Bridger was picking out seeds from his mouth for about an hour after that. It was kinda funny.

Car~ Honk Honk!!

A little something we made today to help keep us occupied. Gideon came to me and said he wanted to drive a car so here you go. He liked it too. :)

Pictures from Sunday

These are all the boys that live here and their new ties. My sister in law Tonya took some ties from the men and made smaller ties out of them. They are all so cute. Bridger and Benjamin are six months apart in age and have become pretty good friends as long as you watch them ;) represenative Grandpa Jarvis looks good in his tie and suit too :)

Out to the park, Ice Cream and Airport~

Today was another great day spent together. We went and washed the car this morning and came back for quiet time. That is when I made some church bags. After that we went and played at the park with the boys (which they just LOVE) and started leash training Akina. i have never had a collar or a leash for her because I have never had a true use for it living in donnelly and having her rome free on the ranch. After the park we headed for some ice cream and goofed off there for a little and then we were off to the Boise Airport. There we played on the escalators and talked a little about a week from today and saying good bye to Daddy for a while. So we walked around the airport for a while and really enjoyed going up and down the stairs that were better than an amusement ride :)











These are some church bags I made for the boys so I can put their individual items in them on sundays and have their needs met and helping them stay busy during sacrament meeting but still inviting the spirit. I love the idea of giving little kids scriptures but with my kids their carelessness at their age they would get beat up pretty fast. So I came up with a thought of copying down the scripture masteries and putting pictures with each individual scripture and then putting them into those little photo albums and putting a picture of the book of Mormon for the front cover for the BOM scripture masteries as well as the old and new testaments and D&C. So They will have their own child proof scriptures. I am not done with those but when I do I will post them on here and share the file with those who would like to copy the idea.

Along with the new goal

I can't give up!!! I went to Golds gym tonight from 9:30-10:30 because I hadn't worked out today. Well I did cardio and some arm strengthening and feel much better about going to bed now knowing that I worked out. it is sure nice to have a gym 6 minutes away. :)

So here is my goal!~

Starting March 1st through the end of August my goal is to loose 30lbs. I am doing some kind of work out every day. My motivation is to be "one Hot Mama" when Joseph gets back. So help cheer me on to my goal and any ideas on meals and dieting and workouts would be great from anyone. I will keep track of my pregress on here and I am determined to loose that weight if it means two a days to get there :) I can't wait ;)

Monday...7 more days!

It was a Beautiful day today and we spent the day out hiking at Jump Creek Falls. The boys Loved it and loved the falls. After that we went to olive garden and had soup, breadsticks and salad. We hung out for a while adn headed back home. It was a nice day today and we spent it together so that is even better. Last night we had a little family party with the Jones'. It was fun visiting with everyone. We Look forward to our week and the fun we will spend together.
