Seth's First Barbershop Haircut


Ok, I know what you are thinking - these aren't pictures of a haircut. Well, you are correct. The reason is: I didn't take any pictures of the first haircut! However, I did take pictures of the first oreo cookie that just so happened to have been eaten on the same day as the first haircut! Does that count? Plus, I was holding Seth on my lap, he was eating a sucker I was trying to keep out of his hair while he was getting the haircut. At the same time I was telling Marcus what a great job he was doing sitting so still and being so brave while getting his haircut! Did you see any possible way a picture could have been taken!?! You'll have to settle for pictures of the Oreo Cookie!

Broncos - Football
Bees - Baseball

Why is everything upside-down!

Future Jazz Player or, even better...

an L.A. Lakers player!
I know, it's my curse in life. I like all the sports teams that everyone else hates (i.e. Yankees, Lakers & Maple Leafs) All Seth needs is his Grandpa Lake's height! Grow Seth, grow!

The Passing Of A Prophet


Sunday January 27, 2008 Gordon B. Hinckley, President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints passed away. You can read more info at www.deseretnews.com

Jon and I, thanks to my Uncle Ed, were able to attend his funeral services on Saturday. I laughed, I cried and I rejoiced over the life and service of President Hinckley. I will miss his voice which always brought peace to my heart and sound wisdom to my mind.

Please watch the biographies of his life at KSL.com

The No Picture Post

Well, we might be photo less for awhile, we have misplaced the battery charger for our camera and it is dead... Which means, I might actually have to start "blogging" in the true sense of the word. However, I am a little bit hesitant because my thoughts consist of, what to get Marcus to eat for lunch and how can I keep Seth entertained on the floor for one more minute while I finish the dishes (which never happens, the dishes end up not getting done). So, I better get some thoughts, and quick.
Actually, I do have a thought!
The first thing that came to my mind was Jon. I have been reading The Proper Care And Feeding of Husbands by: Dr. Laura for the 2nd time (I actually never finished it the 1st time) it has been a great reminder on how to give proper care and feeding to my husband (unfortunately, something I need from time to time). I have a wonderful husband who works hard everyday, and sometimes nights, to bless us with a beautiful home, food to eat, crafts & toys to keep us occupied and happy. He is a great help at home and with the kids and, I think the most important, I know he loves me. Dr. Laura gives three A's as a guide to what every man wants: acceptance, approval & affection. I can't think of a man who deserves it more... thanks Jon, I love you!
