Jesus Said Love Everyone

I am currently the primary Chorister.  Mostly I LOVE this job.  Totally funny to me how as I've prayed about things lately, or questioned things, the answers seem to be coming in the form of song.
The one that has been playing in my head this week is "Jesus said love everyone"  Like to the point I think I am going to put it in vinyl on my wall.

Random thoughts on chairs

At some point I am going to get this thing caught up!!!! At the moment I want to journal.
I can't even remember the name of the show (I'm not the greatest at that kind of thing) but in this particular show this man REALLY likes this woman.  She is divorced with 2 kids and gun shy.  She makes these wicker chairs as her business.  The man comes buy frequently to buy her chairs.  At one point she is like Really? WHERE are you putting all these chairs.  The man keeps buying the chairs.  At one point the man is in a bar a another guy is giving him crap about buying ALL those chairs.  Finally an older wiser man at the bar says basically DUH he buys those chairs because those chairs are "her thing"and because he loves her he is going to "buy her thing" which happens to be chairs.
Sometimes I wonder about the people in my life, that I love, and if I really know 1.what their chairs are and 2. do I buy them? do I support them?

When did they get so big?

Traveling with 2 of your 4 seems like it should be so easy.  Except these 2 love to tease and torment each other.  Sometimes when they snuggle up next to me or try to sit on my lap (In Cam's case squish me)  I wonder how they got so big so fast.  It literally seems like a minute ago they were babies.
I so wish my sister lived closer, I am so grateful to be able to visit.  Siblings are important, Cousins are important, maintaining and strengthening those relationships is something I value.  I do marvel as I age how the differences between my siblings and I are very apparent, yet some things also remain constant.  You all grow up in the same household and you think you will remain the same people, but you don't.  Once we leave the nest we very much become shaped by the new people and the new relationships in our lives.  Every time I'm around family I am reminded of a couple of things 1) it is good to belly laugh!  These people have the inside track on you it's just good plain fun. 2) The more people that come into the picture be that kids or spouses the more change is introduced and thus requires a greater amount of patience, understanding, and love.

Texas Style

After the Tea Party and after a nap, we were ready for a little Fun!

Texas tea party for KK

Happy Birthday KK

My Mom,Cam, Zoe and myself made the trek to Texas to see Min and her family for KK's bday.

Mom does a tea party for each of the grand-daughters when they turn nine.  Nine is Divine. 

CJH

Not the best day for these two cousins.  It was Centerville Jr. V Centennial Jr.  Both fought hard but lost their matches.  Thankfully they don't wrestle the same weight class.

Ski Days

Loving that we finally have some decent snow to ski!

Hip Hop

This was taken at the gas station after hip hop class.  I just love them together.

Welcome back Winter

Utah has had the weirdest winter.  Here we are in March and it's only the third snow storm of the season.  Fun to have some powder.  I was so excited to ski until I remembered how much work it is to ski powder.  My legs were dying!!

Basketball

Special needs basketball.  Feeling like champions. Love these two!

Comp season begins

Team JDS Elite.  So fun to watch these girls advance from little cuties to beautiful dancers.  #developtalent #dedication #hardwork

Big Enough Bow?

This girl is silly and I love her.  Fitting for her dance solo outfit.

Wrestle Mania

It's kind of hard to see but that tall kid in the middle is Cam.  His first two wrestling matches of the season and in order for his team/school to win he had to pin the kid and win his match.  He won! Nothing like a little pressure.  The funny part of this day was his singlet turned backwards.  He didn't realize it until he took his sweatshirt off.  He could of panicked, or been embarrassed, no he took it in stride and pinned the kid.  All of the other boys on the team turned their shirts backwards in his honor.  Great moment.  Fun to watch Cam come into his own.

Wrestle mom

Found this and it's so so true!! Get me in a my kid's football game and I'm good to go.  Put me in the gym watching my kid wrestle and I'm a hot mess.  #intense #exposed #soproud

Happy Valentines / bdays

My mom always does such an outstanding job no matter what the holiday.  February is a special month because Brian and I are the 7th.  Zoe is the 12th, Mom is the 13th and Valentines is the 14th

Hi go off we go

Car selfie.  I still don't know if it's considered a selfie if you have more than one person in it?  We were loaded up and headed to Grandmas and everyone was being a bit silly.  Good moments to remember.
