Still Alive

Just to let you all know that, yes, we're still alive, we're still here. I just haven't felt like posting anything lately. I haven't taken any pictures worth blogging about, nothing much has happened. And I've been in a real downer mood for a few days, and didn't want to infect my blog with negativism. But I'm doing better now.

Mom called me a couple evenings ago to let us know that she and Dad are going to the Twin Falls Temple open house in August, and wanted to know if Jeff and I were interested in going too. So I went ahead and reserved us a tour spot at the same time as Mom and Dad's. We'll go down together. It'll be pretty neat - I've never been to a Temple open house before, and I'm looking forward to it.

Karen said...: We went to the San Diego temple open house and dedication. It was really neat. I also went to the open house in Logan after the remodel. It is always so uplifting and inspiring to see the beauty and the detail that goes into the "House of the Lord" Enjoy:); June 11, 2008 at 10:03 PM

Kiddie Quotes

This morning Zaylee came up to me carrying my purse and said, "Mommy, here's your person!"
I had just washed my hair and blown it dry. It was very, um, full of body. Zaylee looked at it and said smilingly, "You're a lion!"
We were headed to the car, and Zaylee was about to run out into the parking lot. I grabbed her dress to stop her. When I let go, she said indignantly, "Hey, what's the big idea?" I didn't even know she knew that phrase!
I was driving with Zaylee in the car yesterday and we were both being quiet. To make some conversation, I asked, "How you doin' Zaylee?" She sighed and said, "Yeah, she is so pretty." I have no idea who she was talking about.
I was putting on the movie Princess Diaries, and I told Zaylee, "This is a movie about a princess." She repeated, "This is a movie. I'm a princess."
I had the vacuum out this morning after using it last night. Zaylee found great entertainment in pulling on the hose and watching it snap back into place. As I unplugged it and started putting it away, she said such things as: "You wanna pull on macuum, Mommy?" "Bye bye, macuum, have a good nap!" and, as I was putting it away in its closet, "I love you, macuum!" while making a kissing noise. How funny!
Zaylee mimics just about everything we say, though often makes mistakes in pronunciation. Today I offered her a cracker, saying, "Here, have a soda cracker." She took it and said, "Yeah, a super cracker!"
Jeff and Zaylee were playing on the floor. Wanting him to get up, she said emphatically, "Daddy, stand BOP!"
This morning Zaylee came into the kitchen where I was making breakfast. She was blowing very energetically in and out through her nose. I asked what she was doing, to which she replied, "I'm glowing!"
