World's Greatest Mom!

For my Mom's Birthday she paid for all us sisters to go to Time Out for Women in Logan last weekend. WOW! SO AMAZING! We had so much fun and our cups were filled.
We didn't get a shot with Darcy in it (sorry Darc)


We ate lunch at Costa Vita, very delicious. What a awesome Mom to do that for all of us.


There were a lot of amazing people that spoke at Time Out for Women. Mark Mabry was one. He is the photographer for the Reflections of Christ. Very neat story and beautiful pictures. My Sister in Law found this video of his new work. Very neat. "http://deseretbook.com/video/embed/343"

Jill Manning talked about pornography and how to deal with it and teach our children. She made a list of her favorite resources that I want to share. www.deseretbook.com/jill. You can just print it, it's 7 pages. I'm excited to look into it more.

Michael McLean was there and had us all rolling in laughter. He is such a neat songwriter and such a 'real' person. Very inspiring.

You all should go to Time Out if you ever get the chance. Enough said.

* Big HUGE thanks to Grandpa Doug and Uncle Connor for tending all our kids! Darin was digging early beets so he couldn't take any of them. They actually did really well, the kids were fed and happy! Heidi even had her hair done- kindof :) Thanks guys!

On Mom's actual birthday- the 23rd. She was actually at our house. She came out for Brandon's football game. Dad would have come too, but he is on his first ever business trip. It was fun to have Mom here. We made watches, did salsa, went for a walk, and went out to eat. Thanks for coming Mom. I love you so much and appreciate all you do for our family.

She's such a sport and is always willing to let the kids play beauty parlor.

We had up a lot of hands, but still not enough. Let's just say she's 50 something!

How neat you were able to go do that with your sisters. I think your mom is pretty great too, I am glad you got time with her on her bday. You look so pretty in that first one. Where did Darin go?? I've missed your posts, glad to see you on here again!

How fun to be with just the girls. I wished we lived closer to do stuff like that. You do have a great mom. Cute pictures.

Tayna--that is such a sweet post about your mom! I remember always liking her when we were in high school--she was just a neat lady. That is sooo cool she did that for all of you--it sounds like an amazing experience! What fun memories and a great time you all had.

That was a ton of fun. I have been thinking a lot about teaching my kids correct principles and then leting them govern themselves. I just have to figure out how to do it.

We do have an awesome mom. Those pictures were cute, I wish I had my camera, because Connor did take any of the kids;) Did you put the anti pornography on your computer yet?
