Family Home Evening vs. Sacrament Meeting

Tonight I was left to wonder, "Why can Jasper just sit super still during a rather lengthty FHE, but he isn't EVER still during Sacrament Meeting?"

After three trips out in the hall I on Sunday I couldn't help but mutter, "Why do we even come to Sacrament Meeting?"

I know the answer to that question.  But when I spend my whole time battling Jasper and feeling like I must be the worst parent in the world, it's hard not to mutter.

I think that's called murmuring in the scriptures!

I am 100% open to any reverence ideas.

Thanks!

Happy Father's Day!























Little J sure loves his daddy....and his daddy sure loves him!

Thanks for being a great Dad and husband sweetie!

We've started doing a Google Video Chat with my parents each Sunday night and it has been fun to visit with my dad more.

It is hard to be so far away from family.   We miss you Dad!


Here's a photo from a few years ago when I surprised him at work with a singing telegram in my pink gorilla costume.





We love to visit my grandpa DeArmitt in Beaver, and we usually see more of him in the summer when we have to escape the Vegas heat.

Here's a photo of him with Jasper after the 24th of July parade in Beaver. My grandpa rode in the fire truck and then we went to the fire station with him after the parade.

Thank you for your great examples!

We've Been...

Having Fun!

We had a remarkably cool May so we have been taking advantage of every opportunity to be outside and play before the real heat arrives.  (We did have a super hot week -  108 - last week, but that seems to be gone for now).

I hope to post about our Jeep excursions, parties and all around daily fun soon!

The above photo was my Mother's Day gift -- a photo shoot with me and J.  Because you know we REALLY need MORE PHOTOS!!!!  Photo credit: Angela Salazar Photography.  More photos posted here.
