Time for bed!


This is one of those sweet funny moments all of us mother's have. Jake, after eating a good meal is fighting the urge to close his eyes. We kept trying to talk to him to keep him awake. As you can tell that didn't work. He crashed at the kitchen table almost falling out of the chair. My new philosophy is who needs to buy beds for you kids when they will sleep just about anywhere but their own bed.

NKOTB

NKOTB Yes we went to the New Kids On The Block Concert!


My friends came into town this last weekend and we went to the NKOTB concert. What flashbacks of the 80's! We had a really fun time. The boys still had all their moves. They sang alot of their old songs you know like Hanging Tough, Step by Step, Cover Girl, and Right Stuff. Wow we are getting old! It has been 15 years since they were together.

The Good, The Bad, an The Just Plain Ugly!

3- My friends Erin, Ellen and I went to the Virgin Islands. On our way home an engine blew in our plane. We saw dark clouds of smoke and heard alot of noise. We were crying and holding each others hands. We thought we were going to die! But we made it!

2- I put salve on everything. My husband calls me the salve women. Lips, pimples, cuticles, toe nails, scars, stretch marks, bug bites, ingrown hairs, dry skin, noses.
Anywhere on my body! I love salve and chapstick! It works!HA

1- My favorite day is July 12th. That was the day I got everything that was important to me! I recieved my temple endowments and made promises to my Heavenly Father. I Married the love of my life Jason McDonald!

This was fun just read and then forget right! Don't hold it against me! I want to keep seeing other's join in. So whoever reads this now you have to do it!

The Good, The Bad, and The just plain ugly!

OK can't we just all admit that we are normal. I have just way to much dirt! I tried to forget about it along time ago. But here it goes for fun!!!

10- My junior year of high school I wanted to show off. So I decided to steal my Dad's candy apple red Porshe. Of course he was out of town along with my mom. I marked where the tires were in the driveway with a marker to make sure I parked it back just right. I hit turbo once!! HA

9- I never snuck out of the house without my parents knowing. I just plain left!!

8- When I was pregnant with Jake I was a teacher in Relief Society. I was probably 8 months along so I was pretty big. While teaching my lesson my pantyhose began to slip down spontaneously without stopping. They reached my knees and I had a knee length skirt on. I had to do some serious improv. So I had all the sisters closes their eyes and listen to me read a quote. I tied it all into the lesson. In the mean time I had pulled my pantyhose off and stuck them under the small podium if front of me. Nobody new! Thank goodness!

7- I loved to kiss the boys! But only a little kiss! I won't tell how many but there was alot.

6- My senior year of High school- I got really sick and had to go to many Doctor's to find out the problem. After seeing an ENT (ear,nose,throat specialists) I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease. Which is a cancer of the Lymph system. My Aunt had had this and was in remission. But our family was devastated. Come to find out I was mis-diagnosed and after a biopsy of a lymph node in my neck we found out it was Mononucleosis. Yes I stopped kissing the boys!!

5- I got a 8 point reckless driving ticket traveling back to Provo after visiting with Jason. Here's a little back ground. Jason lived in Las Vegas going to UNLV. I was going to hair school in Provo. We were engaged to be married in 8 months. I had gone to visit him over the weekend and didn't leave till 11:00pm. I was trying to get back to Provo quick. I got pulled over clocked at 108mph. He said he clocked me for 15 miles. I cried he let me go. My brother who is a police officer came with me to court. The ticket was reduced to a non moving violation and no points on my record. I never drove that fast again. Learned my lesson!!

4- I was in the Jr Pre Med program in High School. I wanted to be a Anethesiologist. School would have been 3-4 yr under grad, 4 yr med school and 72 month residency. I decided I would start right away. I was registered for class's the summer after graduation. Got married at 19, baby at 20 plans changed!

We have to what?

My kids were telling me how boring I am I never dress up for Halloween. So I thought I'd drag some old stuff out to dress up for Halloween. Thank goodness others dressed up too.

BOO!!!


The weather for Halloween was perfect it was in the high 70's. We decided to have a neighborhood bonfire and roast hot dogs and marshmallows for smores. The kids had alot of fun trick or treating with their friends. It only got scarey when a teenager dressed as Jason from Friday the 13th came running down the street with a chain saw. After Lauren saw him she wouldn't treak or treat anymore.

About Me

Just a little web site to keep our family and friends informed. Out in our new Hometown of O'Fallon, Missouri. We just all keep growing up and getting older. I am a mother of 4 fun loving active children. They sure keep me busy and I love every minute of it. We all have adjusted well out here in Missouri. Thank goodness we haven't seen any tornadoes though. Jason is very busy with Chiropractic school so I have been put in charge of the blog. I think he did that on purpose to teach me how to use the computer. Our family is so very blessed we love just to be with each other and having a little fun. Now we just try to get Dad to talk about other things besides Gross Anatomy and how our body works. But we love him all the same. We think of all of you often and miss you all(now i talk like a missourian).
