Primary Talk on -Jesus Christ Is Our Savior-


Jesus Christ Is Our Savior
(Boen’s talk Mar 3rd, 2013) –CTR 4-

I have a big brother that lives here on earth,
His name is Bingham I’ve known him since birth.

He is very smart and shows me the right way,
I hope to keep growing and be tall like him some day.

Bingham loves his Legos, sports, and playing wii,
But above all that, he likes to play with me!

We are best buddies though sometimes we fight,
But we always make up and try to choose the right.

I have another brother that I don’t see,
He lives in Heaven, and watches over me.

His name is Jesus Christ, and He is your brother too,
He lived on earth many years ago as the King of the Jews.

Jesus taught the gospel and set an example for me,
He healed the sick and fed the hungry.

He knelt on his knees so he could feel our pain,
Then died on a cross so we could live again.

Bing-Student of the Month

   
My little Smartie Pants, Bingam, got student of the month. He is so smart, I cannot believe how he just picks up on things all by himself. He loves to read, write, draw, really anything to do with school. He still has gotten 100% on EVERY spelling test. He got Student of the month for never missing any school, and always being on time. As well as being a good student and friend. I'm so proud of him!










Halloween 2012

Halloween was a crazy busy day. I didn't get very many pictures, which makes me really sad! I started the day by waking up and showering and getting ready before the kids needed to get out the door. I got them ready, then sent them to school with treats for their classes. For Boen I drew pumpkin faces on mandarin orange packets. For Bingham I drew pumpkin faces on actual mini oranges! I made a skeleton for a game for Bing's class. I had to run some errands and start the chili for dinner, clean my house, volunteer at Bing's school party, and finish making breadsticks and chili, all while keeping the house semi clean!

Here are the snacks one of the room mothers made. So cute!




Here is the skeleton I made, my friend made a similar one for her halloween party, which was so much cuter, but I was ok with this!


My Grammy came to Bing's class to sing Halloween songs with them. It was way fun!




Bingham is always so proud to show off his little sister and brother. 

Here are my family members, and of course I am never in the pics, I need to remember this! But so cute, we were all classic Halloween characters! 

After having my family and Brody's family over for Chili, fun and dancing, we headed out trick-or-treating! Paisli loved going to the door and telling people thank you after they gave her a treat! We didn't last long, but Brody and Bingham went for about an hour longer than us! All in all a fun day!



The Anniversary of my nephew's birthday!

My nephew, Harrison, was born and passed away 4years ago. Every year we go to his grave on this day to remember him. It is a tribute to his family and how much he has brought to our lives. We do a balloon release and sometimes bring pumpkins, since it was the 28th of October. Boen was exactly three months old when it all went down. It was really hard on me, because April and i are soo close. I bled with my pregnancy and had a baby 3months earlier. I however, stopped bleeding and ended up with placental pools, and she did not stop bleeding. She almost died along with Harrison. I love him so much and cherish my belief in eternal families. To learn more about Harry's story go HERE. If you'd like to learn about Eternal Families, go HERE! I had a good cry the day before his bday, I imagine Boen and Harry being BEST friends. They were going to be so close. I know that one day, they will be best friends. I also know that they were great friends before Boen came to earth! Here are a few pictures of our visit this year:




















Bing 1st basketball game

Bingham started basketball this year. These are pictures from his first game.
It wasn't his best performance! haha, it was all our fault, we wanted him to play with his friend, which meant he had to play up. Not a great idea. It was his first time, and he just couldn't grasp the game, even tho he was one of the tallest out there.


We moved him down to his own age group, where he is still up to a year younger than those kids, the drawback of having a summer bday. But he has liked it so much and has done tons better.



Paisli May 21months

We love making cookies for Halloween at our house!


This girl loves her daddy, he is wrapped around that tiny little finger!


How can he resist her tho?


21months!
She loves to wear hats and loves her Rapunzel baby. She also loved her bottle, baba, but I finally broke down and took it away, right after she got her cast off! It is still hard at nap time, but she was 21mo old! She poops on the potty everyday. She still has no clue about the peepee part, but we'll figure it out soon!


Paisli got her cast off 2 days before Halloween!


It was scary for her, and she is naked cause, imagine this, she threw up on the way to the hospital. Being a mom, that has a Paisli daughter, that throws up about 5 times a week, I should always have an extra pair of clothes with me, but of course not! At least her ears were saved!


And here is Paisli's new appendage! Her boot that is bigger than her and heavier than her! I only made her wear it for about a week. She has done so well with out it. Sorry about the image, it was from my phone!



This is Paisli's favorite thing to do, push our little Gidget around those house, she is the baby!


I love scarves, and Miss Paisli has been wanting one of her own. I just wrapped one of mine, three times around her neck, too cute! Guess I better get making her one of her own!


And good ol' Weber State basketball season has started! We bought season tickets this year. Its gonna be a blast! Miss Paisli was sick, yet again so she couldn't come, so daddy caught her a ball! I guess we better figure out what her problem is. I have been keeping a calendar of her throw ups. It is unreal how much she does it. But, we have run every test ever on her. She has no food allergies and no other problems that we can see. She is so mini, still weighing 20lbs on our home scale, and won't eat a thing. It seems to have gotten worse since she went off her bottle, she need the fat in that milk. I'm really pushing the sippy as much as she'll take it. Anyway, we love our little 21month old and can't believe how fast time flies!

Bingham's last Primary Talk of 2012

My sweet children love to volunteer to give talks in Primary. It is important to me to let them have a part in writing their talks. Bingham and I sat down and came up with idea on how he could choose to be a Missionary now. Here is what we came up with, feel free to use this and make it personal to your child!


To My Father-in-Heaven;
I have some friends at school,
That don’t believe in You,
I wish I could let them know,
What I believe is true.

I can show them in how I live my life,
And how I choose the right.
I can tell them how families are forever,
And how I pray to You each night.

I can invite them to my baptism,
In two years, when I turn eight.
And invite them to our Family night,
Where they would think we’re great!

I want to serve a Mission,
But it’s so far from now.
I will start with my friends at school,
Why wait? When I am ready now?

*Bingham 6yrs*

I am going to have him where his pin that says, "Future Missionary." He will also be wearing a white shirt, tie, dark pants, and his hair parted. I want him to look the part! I am also going to have him hold up a picture of him with some of his school friends.

Happy Haunting

My little Halloween cat! We were on our way to the ward Halloween Party!


This little kitty loves to play the harmonica!


A couple of weeks ago we went with my family to Day Farm out in West Layton. For $5/person you get a hay ride and to pick a pumpkin of your choice! And its a pretty long ride, and large pumpkins! It was so fun! Paisli loves her Papa!





She also loves Uncle Jeff!





Apparently, the kids thought the workers at Day Farms were funny!



Boen loves anything creepy, and this witch was just that!



Here is Boen the Spider headed to the Ward Halloween Party! 
It was such a fun time, lots of games and treats!


Boen, extremely excited to go on the hayride!

Paisli found her pumpkin right away. She chose a small one, just like her!


Scary little spider!


Bingham makes a pretty cute Skeleton, don't you think?











Boen found his pumpkin too, then decided it made a great seat!




 My cute Skeleton who has two missing teeth, which went well with his costume!

Bingham's costume even glows, which is pretty awesome!




Brody and Bingham found their huge pumpkins!



Hudson could barely carry his back to the truck!


Cute couple of the year! Jeff and my future sister in law Megan! She is so fun and we love this girl so much!



My family
