Aug 29 2009 Was our 23rd aniversary

We were married on August 29, 1986 and have been happily married for 23 years. They have been some of the best years of my life!!!! Sure we never disagree on anything and he always does exactly as I say, and he knows that I am always right! If he just would just do that we would never have any problems and our lives would be perfect, But we are like most couples and we both have our own ideas and we tend to do what we want, We seen to have a really good balance because after 23 years we should have figured it out I would think, Now for real, I think I married the best man that I could have, He really does revolve around me and the kids, and I could say I revolve around him and the kids, I am so happy that I have him and I am so proud of the priesthood that he has brought into our home, It is so different to see what having our family sealed to us has done, don't get me wrong, we still have problems and can feel the adversary work on all us but we wont back down, I love Mike with all my heart and Cant thank him enough for what he did for me and my family when I was sick. What a strength he was for all of us. He packed us all on his shoulders and got us through some of the toughest times that I hope and pray that we never have to go through again , So I am honored to be his wife and mother to his kids for 23 yrs. We celebrated it in Twin Falls watching our first born daughter play volleyball and also took "Mom Pitcher with us. It was a fun couple of days but I wish we Had more time up there. We went to the Shoshone Falls and saw how beautiful they were. Yes is was windy so my hair is funny but oh well.......

Life on the Fast Run

WOW has my life caught up with the fast pace again, When I was sick I told my self that I was not going to get caught up in it again. I hate the busy life's that we all have and we don't take time to even visit with friends, So I went and visited with our friends Shaun and Sherry Hamilton that we have not seen for a while, It was fun. I am really going to try to keep it so that I and my family can and will stop and smell the roses!
Mike left for Alaska with 6 other guys, Kyle Smith, Gerald Bingham, Mike and I will fill in the others later, He called me today and they don't take the boats out on Sunday and I thought that was neat that they observe the Sabbath up there. He said it is pretty and they are right by a volcano. I will write more on it when he gets back.

Karli started Cosmetology school last week and so far is loving it, She always did have a natural knack at doing it so I know she will do and awesome job, She leaves from Mountain Crest and car pools with 2 other girls and drives to Brigham. It is a good deal for the students to start in high school. She is lucky and will probably get to go full time next semester.

Nathan is playing football and so far they have a 2-1 record. He always plays really well and loves playing, He plays defensive end and linebacker. In crunch times he pulls him in on offense to help out. They are fun to go and sit back with friends and family and to watch the games.

We got to see Sydney last weekend at CSI in Twin Falls. She looks so good and really played pretty good. They did lose but they played some hard teams that is way out of our league. But they hung in there and did not do to bad. This weekend she is in Arizona playing in another tournament. They won there first game and she was so excited. Uncle Neil and Amy and Carson and Cole went up and watched her play and said she played awesome. Of course we always miss the bet games it seems. Sometimes we think if we stayed away they would always do better but we just love to watch them play. He said she served 9 straight and brought then back to win the game. These are some pictures of the CSI tournament. The team she plays for is CnCC. It was sure sad to leave her there.
