Happy Hearts Day!

We hope that everyone had a great valentines day (even though it is a totally commercialized holiday that was invented by the chocolate and flower industry to make them rich) Gramma Rachel left cute outfits and horses for the girls before she went home. They were so excited and LOVED them. Thanks very much Gramma. It was very nice of you. Avery has been riding her horse since she got it.

Getting Closer

We are getting closer and closer...we got carpet on Friday and it really made it feel like home. We have a couple of things in the bathroom and our bedroom and then we can move in. It is really nice. I got the playroom organized and put together. It still needs a little touch up. I think every room in the house needs a little touch up. I still have lots of painting to do. I think my kids are a bit tired of my time being spent on painting. I put my grungy paint clothes on and Avery said "NO painting mama" and threw a fit until I picked her up. If she only knew how sick of painting I am, but it is getting closer and closer. It is great to see what once was just plans on paper turn into reality. We feel very blessed to be able to do this!!!

Elder E

Just a shout out to Elder Eaton. He served in our area for a quite awhile and was just transferred to the Anchorage Area. He is an amazing young man, with a never wavering testimony of our Savior and a awesome talent on the guitar. We were blessed to have him in our home on several occasions, where the guitar seemed to just appear when dinner was over. It got to the point that the girls would just start making requests after we had dessert.

Ryan always seems to come up with nicknames for the elders and he struggled finding one for Elder Eaton, which didn't mean he would not join the list of just a few missionaries that touched our lives and hearts. You will be missed Elder E...MOTAB Mosher...Applebees...AL...Shotgun! We look forward to seeing you down here as an AP or at least this summer with a HUGE king on your line! Check out his skills on the guitar, with his companion Elder Call, playing my favorite song he played....WHAT TALENT!!!
