Just some more pics.

Plus it was Alan and I's 5the Anniversary. We went and stayed in a hotel and went to dinner and just Vegged out. I love that. I love having no plans no timelines And yes sometimes no kids.

We went to the coolest resturant called fire/water. We sat on deck overlooking a lake with fountains. We just talked for forever.

Also this week!

I took advantage of the fact that my mom was here and read the twilight series.

Ok LOVED THEM! I can't wait for the next one. Anyway, I am sorry Edward is probably hot and what not but, I LOVE Jacob. He is so my type. A total boys boy. I mean really Rosalie fixes her mans car? what is that. I feel so bad for him. He is so funny way more personality than Edward. Edward is stuffy and high maintenace. I want everyones thoughts!

BUSY WEEK!

First: Grandma came to visit! I love my mom. I am so thankful when she comes to town. Well, any of my family. I sometimes don't feel like I really fit in or that people don't understand me. Who I am inside. When my fam is around it's over, there is no explaining me. We have so much fun. Plus, she spoils my kids rotten. We went to Peter Piper with friends and of course went shopping.

GRATEFUL SUNDAY???

I am going to copy Steph and say that I had a grateful. I was asked to teach the Lesson in R.S.
We had kind of a busy morning we don't have church til 1:30-worst time ever- I had to pick up my mom at the airport at 11. When we got to sacrament Gavin was on Grandma overload and WAY hyper. The bishopric got re-done since our bish was moving. When they called our new bish and he stood and I raised my hand I got total confermation that he was to be the new bishop. I am so thankful for that. That was about all I got out of Sacrament as it was Baylies nap time and obviously she was not napping.

As a gave the lesson I was very impressed to talk about how Pres Kimball says that by the time our children are married or go on their missions they need to have been told about chastity 100's of times. Most of us girls were raised in homes where you just did not talk about sex, or age, or girl problems or ANYTHING really. It did not come out more until high school or later. We live in a society now where everything is talked about ALL the time. There are no limits to what is appropriate and sacred. WE as parents it is our responsibility to talk to our children first about the things of the world. They need to hear from us about sex, homosexuality, adultery, porno etc. If we don't someone else will. Do you want someone Else's opinion to govern your child? Just a thought. I love the Lord. I am thankful that prophets like Jacob of old, Pres kimball Pres. hinkley and all of the prophets who have been around for hundreds of years to warn of all the dangers of the world. I know that they speak the truth. I know their words are from God to help us get back to him.

HAppy or Sad?

Today was a very happy day for Gavin. It is his first day of Pre-school! He is hoping that he will have homework. He took his 'Big' T-Rex for show n tell. When we got there I got out of the car to walk him up and he just said bye mom! Seriously he did not want anything to do with me coming up there. So I took him up anyway and he just kept telling me bye. I ran back to the car to get the lady some money and when I came back he said your already back? Bye mom. So he is very excited.

I on the other hand was driving home and could not help but come to a few sad realizations.

1) I being my cute, young, happy, still feel like I am 20 self,-j/k have a son old enough to be in school! When did this happen? How did this happen? I seriously remember sitting in second period like yesterday wondering when the dang bell is going to ring! After having children I have found out a couple things. One it seems like Christmas or any holiday in which we have to spend money to get presents is ALWAYS here! And two time FLIES by.

2) I am now driving a drive that will consume my next 20 plus years of live depending how many children I have. Wow! what a slap in the face. I am not a morning person. I never have been and probably never will be. Now I have to be up and out of the house by 8:45. Judas priest this whole mom thing just gets better and better. hahah

HAPPY FIRST DAY of SCHOOL! ps as you can tell Baylie is very happy about the new day!

NEW THINGS

I am sick of making the same things night after night. Please send me fun good recipes that your fam loves! Let's mix it up here. If anyone wants suggestions I will share as well.

NOT A TEACHER!

So two weeks ago I had to speak in church. This week I had to substitute the 11-12 year olds. I must admit I think that this was a punishment from Heavenly Father for how crappy I was to all of my Sunday school teachers. Payback sucks. Anyway so last night I am sitting and enjoying the end of my labor day. We had just cooked steaks on the grill, had fruit salad and romen salad, and my favorite holiday treat chips and dip! yum. When the phone rings.... It's the second counselor in the R.S. Hi Rachel can you teach the lesson next Sunday? Oh MY gosh. First off, they just called a new teacher on Sunday.-relief for me. when I spoke they released the lady and did not call anyone.

So, why am I being called to speak. And on of all things Chastity! This is a touchy subject. Alans said, It's not that big of a deal everyone is married. Ummmm actually we have a lot of singles in our ward. I am nervous.

Your song!

hey this is pretty fun. Find out what the number one song on the day you were born was!
