shortcomings of a domestic Diva
I haven't posted in a few days. It's been kind of a rough week for me. Someone said that I "don't do anything". It's funny how un-motivating that is. It's like someone telling you that you're fat to motivate you to diet and exercise. For most of us, that just doesn't work. SO it was hard to get ALL the chores that I typically do, done. I know it's all in my head and that I shouldn't let something like that get to me. It's just so paralyzing for me. Mind over matter... I don't want to slip into a depression. Okay, enough 'Debbie Downer'...

Our Hawaiian Princess
Isn't she just the cutest! I know I'm a little biased but c'mon!!! I found this little Roxy dress at Macys yesterday for 9 bucks! I figured it's big enough that she can wear it next summer but I couldn't resist putting it on her today. I took her to church in it without shoes. I just couldn't bring myself to put shoes on her in that outfit! She felt so pretty...

Behold your little ones
Well I made it. It's been kinda a rough couple of days with the preparing and just nerves really but everything went fine. I especially liked my sharing time. It was about prayer. I told the story of Christopher getting his prayers answered as a little boy. We were home listening to primary music and Christopher loved listening to the song "Follow the Prophet". He wanted me to play that song over and over again. He told me that they had never sang that song in Primary at church and that he really wanted to sing it in Primary on sunday. One of us had the idea that he could pray, that they would be able to sing it on that coming sunday. As the week went on I had forgotten all about his prayer. Had I remembered I may have considered calling the primary chorister and asking her to please sing Follow the Prophet on sunday! But I forgot, so I didn't. On that very next sunday as I went to pick Christopher up from Primary I realized they were all still in there. That it wasn't over yet. As I opened the door to the primary room I witnessed what the faith of my little boy had done. Sitting in the room with all the children was a man with a guitar playing "Follow the Prophet" for all the children, with them all singing along. Come to find out their special visitor was the man that wrote "follow the Prophet". He was passing through LA from Utah (I think) and had stopped in to our primary with his guitar to play for the children. A small miracle really. Our church is huge with many many many congregations everywhere, including Los Angeles. I'm so glad that the Lord answered my little boys prayer and in no small way either. It wasn't an important prayer as far as prayers go but he cares and loves each one of his children so much that with Christophers faith he answered that simple prayer.

Camping fun
So we went camping last weekend with all the Wiley clan. Can you call it 'camping' when a cabin is involved? I'm calling it camping. It was a lot of fun. The weather was nice and it was beautiful up at Twin Lake. We got to fish, float, midnight kayaking and star gazing, fish, hike (McKenna), do nothing, fish, play games, sit around the campfire, eat smores..... you get the idea...
So cute! Jack had SO much fun fishing with his daddy!! They fished from shore and out in the lake from a boat.
A serious fisherman. Branson LOVES fishing.....

Fancy a cruise??
Okay,calling all family and friends. There is a mediterranean cruise happening next July. MY friend the watercolor artist is doing it as her yearly artists retreat. It will start in Italy and go to Greece, mesopotamia and Turkey. Imagine being in port for a couple of days in all these places, exploring and painting the beautiful scenery! Remember the island in mama mia?! That's what I'm talking about! It's 10 days long and the more people we have in one room the cheaper the price would be. It would be amazing if we could somehow all go! Here is the website for more info www.makeeverydayapainting.com if you want to see the teachers work (they're awesome) it's www.cindybriggs.com and www.theresagoesling.com You would need to put 600. dollars down to hold your spot. Maybe a reward for being able to run a certain distance by next summer? Just a thought!
