I have found that the best time to drive to Dallas is EARLY in the morning before the crazies are out! We had an early drive to the temple Saturday morning to fill a 7am assignment. I was tired but boy, what a good way to start your day! There is probably not anything better. Dan went to work for a couple hours and I went to go buy a PIANO. Woo hoo! I have been so excited to eventually buy one and I'm happy we were able to for my graduation gift. The digital pianos now are so much more advanced than they were when I was growing up. The sound, timbre, resonance and the weight of the keys are huge improvements.


That night we invited as couple of Dan's coworkers, including the new interns from BYUI for dinner. We BBQed burgers and had a great dinner then played pieface. I got lucky and was the only one that didn't get hit! It was so fun and we even build a fire in our fireplace. Cozy. Lucky us, We got called in to meet with the a member of the bishopric and were given new/more callings! In addition to the Webelos Den Leader I am also now their primary teacher. Dan went from the assistant scout master to THE Scoutmaster. I know it's a lot of responsibility in a calling but I know if anyone can juggling that and busy season, it's Dan.




This week was awesome because it looked like this: M - MLK no work, T - Work, W - Training, Th - Training, F - Work.

Monday the wives got together from out BBQ and window shopped at Home Goods, At Home, Costco and had some lunch. It was really fun! Because I'm working all the time it was nice to see some friends during the day! Tuesday at work was CRAZY. After the weekend and a holiday we had so much mail that needed to be posted. I was exhausted by the end but the thing that kept me going is that I had training the next two days. Training was great! I learned new strategies, ways to improve myself and member service. Got some free stuff and was thoroughly fed. Doughnuts and kolaches for breakfast, chips, cookies, oreos, soda, tea and crackers for snack. One day we went to Los Vaqueros for lunch and I ordered the brisket tacos, AMAZING! The next day we went to Coopers which is a smoke pit BBQ chophouse. I've been there before and it's always a treat to go. Food coma! Plus i got to wear jeans at training, score!

I obviously need this in my entry way no?

I went to the Retired Inspired book signing, so fun!

We went on a Fort Worth History and Ghost Tour





 I got to watch our neighbors pups! So cute!


Dan and I went to the Fort Worth Stock Show

We had a lot going on this weekend! Some good. Some bad. I woke up to this Friday the morning What a great way to start a Friday morning without work! I seriously have the kindest man ever. He's so thoughtful After he got out of class and before I had class we snuck in a last minute temple session . Who knew it would be so packed on a Friday mid day! I rushed (because I hate being late) but it was so worth it once you get there and just feel peace . That evening after classes and homework, we drove down to Idaho Falls for a family BBQ the evening before Logan and Amanda got married . The BBQ was great and I loved seeing all my family and meeting some of Amanda's family. I even got a picture with Sister Bullock :) All while this was happening my parents were supposed to be making the trip to IF and be there for the BBQ. I had heard briefly from my mom that Dad wasn't able to get off work and that they would be late. Then it got the point they wou

This is Important

So I've given this a lot of thought and with some advice from Dan the man, we've decided to go ahead and make our blog private from now on. This means that only those whose emails are on my readers list can view it. WHY Lately I've been thinking about the publicity and the openness of the internet and I don't want my security and my family's security to be a worry because the things I post on my blog. I realized that the reason I am blogging is; 1) For me as a journal and to record and read back on fun memories and 2) So family and friends can stay in contact and feel like we're apart of each other's lives even when we're far apart. Although the page views of all my Facebook friends and others reading my blog has been really nice (I'll admit, I like the numbers) I've realized that I enjoy some privacy more. SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? This means that if you would like to continue reading our blog that I am going to need your email address

  Love My boys! Nate's face! Brooks being silly Another round of sickness in our house. Brooks always seems to get a headache, spike a fever, pass out somewhere and wake up later feeling most of the way better. This time we ended up getting cold symptoms afterwards. When I got sick I was tested and whatever it is it's not covid. Dan got it last and was sick into February. It was lingering so he tested again and it was again negative. So whatever we had was mild, still not fun and stuck around forever. We have this cute bible book about Noah's ark. Carson starts looking at it and pointing to Noah says, "Santa Claus!" Oh. yes I can see how you think that haha. So we kept telling him no, it's Noah. He points to Noah's wife and says, "Mama!" hahaha so I'm either Noah's wife (they look very old in the book) or Mrs. Claus. Not sure whether to be offended or not haha! We sold our small freezer and upgraded to this beauty! I love it! I love being
