Done!

So, it is done! Finally! After much planning, effort, blood, sweat and tears, the most recent Anaheim 4th Ward activity is done! This means we can finally breathe easy and relax...at least till next time! It actually turned out okay...we did a modern day pioneer thing...talking about pioneer stories as well as how we are all pioneers. We also talked about how we are all pioneers. We played cool games like packing your own handcart, reusable grocery sack races, what's in your 72 hour kit? and Don't forget the lyrics...to pioneer primary songs. Do you know how many times the word walk is in "Pioneer children sang as they walked and walked and walked? " I didn't.

So, it is done, and we can relax and get back to looking for a house! Speaking of, I should probably clean mine...

Ice Cream!




Your Ice Cream Personality:



You are not a particularly modest person. You're proud of who you are, and you don't care who knows it.



You are the type of person who likes to throw caution to the wind. You only live once, so you're going to live as large as possible. You are definitely a wild one!



You are a very open minded, liberal, and flexible person. You love many things. You tend to have tastes that range from down home to cosmopolitan.



You tend to have a one track mind. You prefer not to multitask.



You can be a big dramatic and over the top sometimes. You are bold in every way

Hi

So, once again I have been lax about posting. I really should be getting ready for work now, but really, who wants to do that when they can sit on their rear end and blog? It seems life is a lot of the same lately, although we are excited to have more cousins in CA yo play with like Laura and Cody and Joel and Claire. We are still looking for a new place to live. After a lot of praying and waiting for a neon sign that never came, (I have come to believe that neon signs are usually not the way it works... It seems that God often says you choose and move forward and I'll let you know if its wrong. ) we have decided to look for a place to by in So Cal. There is part of us that would love Utah for many reasons, but we feel happy about So Cal.

I also wanted to comment on the recent Worldwide Leadership Training Program insert in the Ensign. I admit we did not go originally, because we felt it honestly would be non applicable to us. But, I finally picked it up and read the first half of it on Tuesday, and I am amazed at what I missed. It is a spectacular discussion of families and their importance. The Church's stance on certain things may not be popular right now, but it is right.

Okay off my soapbox. I guess I have to go to work now!

Hello again

So, it has been a while, at least for me. Tiffany had a good vent post about the horribleness that is "Swingtown", but I have been away foir a while. To sum briefly...and I promise more to come...pictures and everything...We had a great vacation! We drove to Hearst castle, all the way up CA to near Oregon, then bacjk through San Francisco to Mom and Dad Laney's, then over to Utah! Sadly, our time there was shorther than we would have liked, which meant we missied trevor and will miss Joel's wedding, but our love and hearts go out to everybody! We may even sneak back up there soon...we shall see.

I must say though, the highlight , or lowlight, of our vacation was probably watching Michael smack his head and end up in the emergency room. I do have some pictures that I may post, and video that I may just keep private. That was FUN! We did really enjoy our Utah time though, and wished it was longer. We even got the idea to put Utah on our list of possibilities to move to -again. It has been off and on for years...but we are seriousy looking for a place...we just don't know where yet.

So, the only reason I am upo rambling this late is that I am trying to finish work on a team project for my online class...and my team won't respnd and now Microsoft Word is crazy! AAAAAAGH! Okay I'm done. I need slep! Will post pictures soon!

are you kidding me?!

So, I've been thinking a lot about this new show they have coming out called (get this): Swingers. Yes, it about what you think it's about. I can't believe that media has gotten so desperate to stoop to such a horrific level. It's gross that they would think that American people would want to watch such a show. What is it going to take for the world to say, "no more". Well, this american, Christian is though! I have better things to do. I'm going to read, write my book, practice singing, read my scriptures, and watch "I love Lucy."
Okay, I think I'm done with my rave now, but seriously, I'm done. I'm tired of not being happy with the stuff on t.v, but not doing something about it. I'm going to write to NBC and complain. Even if nothing happens, I'm going to let the world know where I stand.
As a quote from Indiana Jones says, "It's time to ask yourself what you believe." I don't know what do you think?
