Jessica's Baby Shower from the family





Today we had Jessica's baby shower from the Williams family. It was so much fun. We had such a fun time planning it. Me, Angie and Laura were in charge and we did a wonderful job if I do say so myself. Laura was on a mission to make sure Jessica got a bassint and she came through beautifully. The only hard part was that it came in a box and we wanted to have it put together so it would be ready when Jess got it and she wouldnt have to put it together. Well we did it. We only had to take it a part a couple of times and then Lex came to help us also. Thanks Lex. Anyways she was so excited and it is the cutest bassinet I have ever seen. They are usually not very cute at all. Also Angie got the bea in her bonnet to make her a "Diaper Cake." I thought it sounded kindof weird at first but when she showed me I could see what she was saying. It turned out so dang cute and she is actually going to start selling them so if anyone is interested in one let me or her know. She is amazing as we all know. She is Martha in one more area.
While at the shower Aaron had the boys for the day. They were having a rather relaxing day until Trudy called him to come to her rescue for a "Griswall Project." She had the lesson on sunday and it was on eternal companions and just needed aaron to do some majic because all of her other plans had fallen through. So he did his magic and cut her pieces of the granite from the draper temple for each of the girls to have and they had a picture of President Hinkley sit in them. They turned out very cool. Good Job Aaron. You are amazing as we all know. If I can get a picture of them I will post it.

Dog looses his nuts, Retaliates by stealing Aarons

After a trip to the vets, our dog foud himself lacking something to lick. He got even the other night when Aaron decided to change the brakes on his truck. Aaron took all the lug nuts off the tire and the bolts from the calliper arm and set them neatly behind him. One by one Rumsen, our one year old black lab, took them and carried them off in the the snow. Whether or not he ate them or simmply droped them in the deep snow remains a mystery. What is for certian is that after spending twenty miniutes trying to find them Aaron figured out the dog was taking them because while looking for the missing ones he saw the dumb dog come get one of the few remaining ones and carry it off. He found one in the snow but before he could return it to the pile the dog took yet another one. Full of frustration and while spewing mumbled obsenitys into the cold night air he picked up the rest of the nuts and bolts and put them into his pocket. Once the remaining hardware was secure he kicked the sorry dogs ass back into the house, locked him in, and then proceeded to find a ride to the nearest part store to aquire the nessessay parts to put the truck back together. This spring as we mow the lawn we will see whether or not they were mearly droped or shat out. Unless of course they were to get cross threaded in him and then we will both end up back at the vet.

At the bowling Alley






Today was free zoo day and I always plan every year to take my kids on this day to see how much they like it if it would be worth to buy a family pass for the year. Well if we all remember how freezing cold it is today you will understand why I decided not to go to the zoo today. Well actually I had invited my dad to come with us with it being Wednesday we all had the day off. My dad told me that he would like to spend time with me and my boys but he did not want to freeze to death but he would love to take us bowling. Well last year we took our kids bowling for the first and they both loved it so I said i would love to do that. My kids were so excited when I told them that grandpa was going to take us "real" bowling not toy bowling. We all had such a fun time. Jessica being eight months pregnant also came and when we checked in at the desk to get our shoes the lady told her she better not have it here today because she didn't want to clean it up. She was kindof onary and we didn't think she was very funny. We all had a great time and that is what Ciaran wants to do for sure now for his birthday. No Jessica didn't go into labor but it was pretty funny to watch her bowl.
Pictures still to come

Will the snow ever stop

We have gotten sooooo much snow it is unbelievable. Yesterday I looked out my window and could actually see the green grass again but it didn't last for long. Well I haven't done an entry for a couple of days because I have been sick in bed.
Sunday Aaron took the boys to church all a lone. Good job aaron. Ciaran started going to sunbeams which he loved. Cabhan on the other had was not about to stay in nursery without Ciaran there with him. I had a feeling this would happen. I dont know what we will do. They have a child proof lock on the door of the nursery but guess what Cabhan can open it and he his down the hall before anyone notices he is gone. We will have to keep working on that one. Well while aaron was taking care of the boys on Sunday while I was sick he taught them a new song. Oh my gosh it has to be my favorite one so far. It is from Bon Jovi's new album and I love it. Bon jovi as you all know is my favorite band of all times and now my three year old can sing his songs. What more could you want. I know it is not I love to see the temple or Jesus wants me for a sunbeam but I still love it. I will work on those ones with him. This is not the song by Bon Jovi as you can tell but just an example of what a good little singer I have. Ha ha
