The Call

My son received his Mission call 8-26-2011. I was so surprised when he said "Guadalajara Mexico" you could have knocked me over with a feather. I am excited for him, and a little sad to realize my children are growing up and leaving home.  I am going to miss him, but I am so proud of his decision to make this sacrifice and give up his own personal life to serve the Lord. Wither or not you are a L.D.S. Mormon or another faith, to give up your personal time to serve others is a note worthy sacrifice. 

My random life

Every one of my family members has a blog, or they should have a blog, because something they are doing in their life is truly note worthy. I have done lots of arts and crafts....

from chain saw wood carving.....

food stuff.....

 t-shirt printing.....

and so so many painting projects I couldn't even begin to list all of them

I am pretty random....I am willing to do any arts and crafts project. I have done a lot of different projects for people, last minute of course. Just this summer my niece got married and I volunteered to help make some decorations....I laugh now at the cupcake stand I made...I should have finished it before my shoulder surgery...but I did it after...it turned out okay with the help of Nicole and Kiersty

it had cupcakes that lined all the tiers and then a two layer wedding cake on the top of the stand...I don't remember much of the reception...I was all vicodined up....I'm sure there is a picture somewhere of the final product...but it was a cute idea I came up with.

I have no idea what I am doing...but I just figured out how to follow myself :D

so.... I am procrastinating cleaning my house right now and setting up this blog. My whole life can be summed up in one word....procrastinator.... It drives everyone I know crazy. While I was trying to come up with a clever witty blog name...I thought....I've procrastinated once again and all the good names are taken. But no matter how many times I say I'll change or put things off...it always seems to work out...probably because I have the best family and friends in the world...and they still answer their phones when I call :)
