Forget Not

This talk by President Uchtdorf made a huge impression on me, I feel very blessed to have latter day prophets and apostles to guide and direct me in my life. His talk can be watched here.

Get on your knees and pray. 
Then get on your feet and work.


(My friend Antoinette posted this quote on her blog and it has stuck with me all day, thought I would pass it on.)

My four blessings...

Love these kids.

Weekend movie night in my bed.

Back in Albuquerque for 7 more months...

Coming back to Albuquerque after my brother-in-laws funeral has been tuff. I think about my sister and her kids all the time and wish I could be there to help out in some way.  It's been hard to see how quickly my life can go back to normal here, it makes me feel guilty when her life is hard right now. I kinda feel like I'm going through the motions of life and we are just trying to get through the last part of school so we can move to Idaho. At the same time I'm trying to enjoy the time we have left here, we've made some wonderful friends here.  Rich's next two rotations are out of town, so he'll be gone until the middle of November.  We spent are last afternoon together at our favorite park.

Soccer

We just started soccer for the first time and we are LOVING it. I never thought I would get so into these games, it's exciting to watch them play. Brooklyn has surprised me a lot, she's pretty aggressive out there on the field. She's all over the ball! She's not the shy little girl that I used to know. 

Weston also just lost his first two teeth.

All muddy after the game,.

Little video of Weston warming up...

Blake gets his tonsils out

Blake got his tonsils out yesterday, he has been looking forward to this day because he knew he would get as many popsickles and pudding as he wanted.  He hasn't cried or complained about pain at all, he's pretty tuff. I do feel like I am came home with a different kid, his voice is totally different! It doesn't sound like my Blake at all.
