2010 Prom

I can't believe my baby boy went to Prom last weekend. It was so cool to see him in his Tux. He loved wearing it. He said the shoes were his favorite part. I'm glad he has such good friends to go with on a group date.

You can tell they didn't practice promenade. They didn't realize they were suppose to stop for pictures.

I love you Riley! You are so handsome.

Spare of the moment Easter trip.

We hadn't planned anything for Easter weekend but they needed us to leave our house for the weekend so they could refinish our wood floors.

A few months ago Scott and I got an email talking about the new bridge crossing the Hoover Dam. We thought it would be a good trip this summer to take the kids there before it was finished. So we decided to go to Vegas for the weekend and spend sometime at the Dam.

We took the kids on the Power Plant tour inside the Dam.
It was very interesting.
(I forgot to change my glasses before going underground)

I was cool walking through the tunnels.

This will be a unique picture is a few years with the unfinished bridge in the back round.

I love my family.

They say the tall waterline is from the water level in 1985.

Here is my family half in Nevada and half in Arizona.

We had a good time.

Jason was the funniest in Vegas.

First when we got there at 11:30pm (Nevada time -12:30 Utah time) on Friday night Jason wanted to know what we where going to do first because we where in the "City that never sleeps"

So we said we would take a ride down the strip and see the lights THEN he put on his sun glass.

I laughed and said it is dark out, he said "MOM, I still need to look cool"

It turned out to be a good Easter Weekend/Family Vacation.

New Calling

Well my first assignment in my Relief Society calling was to make a poster we can update each month with a calendar for the hallway by the Primary and Young Women's room and to also to decorate the bulletin board in the RS room.

This is what I came up with. I found these clips I could use in the middle of my posters.

So basically I made and decorated a BIG clip board.

Stamp Class

At this month's stamp class we didn't even stamp once.

Kira found these great eggs for us to cover.

I think they turned out so cute.

We used some of Stampin -Up's paper.
I love these pinks and greens.

These two are my mom's creations.

She went will more of the purple look to match her Easter decor.

New niece!

Letley Strong

This is what I have been working on lately.

I made it for my new niece miss Letley Strong.

It was a lot fun to make.

I love the applique embroidered flowers.
Then I quilted the same flower on the opposite block.

This is the back. I love this fabric line.

Very Neat Experience

Last week I had a neat experience. I went to my boss's house to notarize some papers for him. While I was there he should me "his" book. I'm pretty sure it is his prized position. About three years ago Deseret Book sold some assets on there asset list. On that list was the first Book of Mormon off the printing press in 1830 that Martin Harris gave his brother Elmer Harris. Elmer was able to hide and keep the book safe during all the turmoil. The Harris family donated it to the church in the 1960's and some how it got on that asset list. As soon as my boss found out about it going up for sale he purchased the book. He told me he plans on donating it back to the church with the condition they never sell it again and it possibly gets in the wrong hands. Anyway he wanted to take my picture with it. It was a very humbling experience to hold that 180 year old book.
