Before now, I never have given it much thought. Well, guess what? I gave it some thought...and am going to give it a try. I LOVE the reds, and whites. I am going to add a splash of green too. I actually, am kind of having fun, purchasing wrapping paper that match. Have you ever gone with a color scheme, for the gifts under your Christmas tree? I would love to hear about it. :)michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-30645989043868988792009-12-01T04:35:00.000-08:002009-12-01T04:46:16.734-08:00Happy December...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAnfrL_3FShQS5iRU58334yWZQuFcZaNEw99tGqGGnhnyWp6RGAy3BSpyTIBe43QSZJpZbCVS980idGs2H03OqI6MVSlpqKb3GOZwa1IZJqqIkLd4cJYtbGw571GztuaZ1qFX3Aro1V7w/s1600/ft_ornament34a_xl.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAnfrL_3FShQS5iRU58334yWZQuFcZaNEw99tGqGGnhnyWp6RGAy3BSpyTIBe43QSZJpZbCVS980idGs2H03OqI6MVSlpqKb3GOZwa1IZJqqIkLd4cJYtbGw571GztuaZ1qFX3Aro1V7w/s400/ft_ornament34a_xl.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5410247822949351890" /></a><br />Ohhh, how I love this time of the year.

It feels sooo good to be back! :) <br /><br />We have been to many wedding receptions, showers, etc. in the past year or so. This weekend we had 3 weddings, and a baptism we were invited to attend. I LOVE seeing people, that are in love! So happy, that they chose to spend forever together! It makes me reflect on Steve, and I. January 19Th, we will have been married 25 years. I love the fact that, I can talk to him about anything, and everything. Sooo much so, that last night I had Christmas, and Thanksgiving on my mind. It was about 2:00 a.m. He finally quit replying to me. I knew he wasn't asleep, because of the sound of his breathing...snoring! :) That is another post for another day. He finally piped up, and said, that he couldn't hear what I was saying!!! He played deaf! Love that man! :) HAPPY Tuesday!michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-85788367019517978472009-11-12T03:38:00.000-08:002009-11-15T03:46:38.953-08:00:)The group!

It is that time when I want to break out the Halloween/Fall decorations. This weekend, is the weekend! My decorations ar kept in the attic. Everyone around my house knows, I don't go in the attic! So, my sweet husband will get to do that little job for me. <br /><br />Some of my favorite things, transpire during these next few months. The change of weather, leaves changing color, a nip in the air...finally, blankets, football games, pumpkins, witches, goblins, apples, smells etc. I think I could go on, and on. What are a few of your favorite things about this beautiful time of year?michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com18tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-53515053644283326132009-09-11T07:49:00.000-07:002009-09-11T08:01:25.698-07:00Remembering...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY3dw8X9tt_qGHdwuFRNxg5gxZq0_8hUsqEaO7gPlr5uiDjQlGE8JSoQBpWzFR767esGa9oYXtd9b2xUZYlsqGpjPa6iXoza30SojRIVgbVXluoLjD3sBKVp_Y3rAJ9l6r4YDqgZzYxOU/s1600-h/USA-flag.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhY3dw8X9tt_qGHdwuFRNxg5gxZq0_8hUsqEaO7gPlr5uiDjQlGE8JSoQBpWzFR767esGa9oYXtd9b2xUZYlsqGpjPa6iXoza30SojRIVgbVXluoLjD3sBKVp_Y3rAJ9l6r4YDqgZzYxOU/s400/USA-flag.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380224325418249330" /></a><br />I was in the kitchen of our Val Vista Lakes home. The kids were getting ready for their school day. News channel 3 was on the TV, as it has been, every morning for well over 20 years. The vivid images, that still remain in my mind, came across the screen. It was time to get going. Time to take the kids to school. The boys to the bus stop.I took the kids to school. When I returned home, I went right to the TV. At that point, I was nervous. I got back in the car, and went, and picked up all of the kiddos. They had just made it to school, an hour or two before. We spent the day together, at home.

I sure have missed my blogging friends. I was having problems, staying connected to my blog. I would sign on to it, and it would kick me right off. I was frustrated to say the least. The problem is fixed now, so back to blogging! :) I have so much to blog about, that has passed. I decided to just start from here, and move forwards. I have a post coming later today. I just wanted to let everyone know all is well here. I hope all is well there too! :)michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-7782116084055268612009-08-08T08:58:00.000-07:002009-08-08T09:17:11.678-07:00Beauty and the Beast<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM5JwHmIeBsOlukS1TiwmmebTjDpJd9Sp9HoifZPWwmpyIBBIpCwjwk5Ho7Kq7uZPtR-Ku0qLVVXy-S3LowZwyOWWAmj-_SweOkRTiI9U7lij2dWlyQCvGVTgF1uAFqMGwzBwOPV3YMd4/s1600-h/3-wallpapers-beauty-beast.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM5JwHmIeBsOlukS1TiwmmebTjDpJd9Sp9HoifZPWwmpyIBBIpCwjwk5Ho7Kq7uZPtR-Ku0qLVVXy-S3LowZwyOWWAmj-_SweOkRTiI9U7lij2dWlyQCvGVTgF1uAFqMGwzBwOPV3YMd4/s400/3-wallpapers-beauty-beast.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5367627644042079106" /></a><br />Last night Steve, Sarah and I went to see the play Beauty and the Beast at the Hale theater. It was fantastic! The cast was amazing, the costumes were so bright and the singing was beautiful! The Hale theater is located here in Gilbert. The other plays that will be playing this year are...She Loves Me, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and A Christmas Carol. I want to see all three! :)<br /><br />Well, I better get busy getting things finished for Monday. I just can't believe, school starts in 2 days!!! When do your kiddos go back to school?

Steve started having severe pain, last Wednesday night. I wanted to take him to the E.R. but he sure didn't want to go. After some timed passed, we ended up at the E. R. around 11:00 P.M. Luckily once he was given morphine, his pain calmed down. He was diagnosed with having gall stones. He had gall bladder taken out Tuesday, the 28th. He has been home, and resting. Today he did go into the office, and did pretty well. I just have to post a picture. He is to cute of a patient not to! :)michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com23tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-76727369875776299772009-07-26T08:43:00.000-07:002009-07-28T04:57:06.713-07:00Greg Olson...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqlG38YrD-fQYuAjr8uDC1QXqSf6erfdMCDXcd20tNRTSXDYOrywgeP4qFOrouvnFm9lPOM-pd83xNqnGwMAl90Wqr_KTDoAxLPdaAKknrVmSjv7zgWfVJ-MTzwiJyqONzi9lTcG6Rbfo/s1600-h/4287_95677653136_38599663136_1973967_4801576_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 346px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqlG38YrD-fQYuAjr8uDC1QXqSf6erfdMCDXcd20tNRTSXDYOrywgeP4qFOrouvnFm9lPOM-pd83xNqnGwMAl90Wqr_KTDoAxLPdaAKknrVmSjv7zgWfVJ-MTzwiJyqONzi9lTcG6Rbfo/s400/4287_95677653136_38599663136_1973967_4801576_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363478190743861714" /></a><br />This one reminds me of my three boys, and our dog Austie. <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEFtRdzj40jDHgrF1WMlWN2z9mIpZf7XY6bfwstgsefpC5Vt1DrYIbAYIa41OKoy_lUvwC7_xignTL4v72Icsi9aWPRbKMpEqsVBR9IydkQt4srrOF8Gi14yzNZOuPKwTP_kBq7cIKLPg/s1600-h/4287_97889483136_38599663136_2007716_8175133_n.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEFtRdzj40jDHgrF1WMlWN2z9mIpZf7XY6bfwstgsefpC5Vt1DrYIbAYIa41OKoy_lUvwC7_xignTL4v72Icsi9aWPRbKMpEqsVBR9IydkQt4srrOF8Gi14yzNZOuPKwTP_kBq7cIKLPg/s400/4287_97889483136_38599663136_2007716_8175133_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363477509311396450" /></a><br />This is my hearts favorite.

I knew I was going to have to figure out how to make one myself! I have seen on a few blogs the cupcakes that are large, and made as a cake. When we got back to town I started looking for the cake pan/pans I would need. I found my cake pan at Joann's. It originally was 32.oo, but I used my 50% coupon. Sarah, and I just pulled the cake out of the oven. I will for sure post pictures, once we get it decorated. I am loving baking, even knowing it is 114 outside, and HOT in the kitchen! :)michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-63388677096982952262009-07-16T09:43:00.000-07:002009-07-19T13:35:38.439-07:00Some California fun...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu1Eh1aqAjQWXc6hFN6It0PNDbNkTKvaP5_EWcuGHOE6MxEOKqTR3wgF9FXUBJ0Lr8ft1e2L79xCWtiJHzk8ycNfTAyPkl-jt9KeltHXe0TRIh6q6AFozGiQVhFIt-a6rwb-RScvMldUY/s1600-h/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+137.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu1Eh1aqAjQWXc6hFN6It0PNDbNkTKvaP5_EWcuGHOE6MxEOKqTR3wgF9FXUBJ0Lr8ft1e2L79xCWtiJHzk8ycNfTAyPkl-jt9KeltHXe0TRIh6q6AFozGiQVhFIt-a6rwb-RScvMldUY/s400/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+137.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359444271955904786" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimupb8Dvd-Curzobfghna_3_C_j2ntBvKEsT2YhisonaQAlEl09Q-5sBUk5Dyzh0ILywyBRAYgcCCdWyvZKPqhEWDfbYWlqvJQxcaZkzGhhNid2kklzcTreFbiZfKiOBiEGMd4wyWIKWw/s1600-h/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+197.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimupb8Dvd-Curzobfghna_3_C_j2ntBvKEsT2YhisonaQAlEl09Q-5sBUk5Dyzh0ILywyBRAYgcCCdWyvZKPqhEWDfbYWlqvJQxcaZkzGhhNid2kklzcTreFbiZfKiOBiEGMd4wyWIKWw/s400/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+197.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359444046493431490" /></a><br /><br />Nate, and his friend Chris.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhRxRDnawXnWAgxuXnVrAMQ3GdHJjk6x51T2Z9hMfMliVcBRt4PQ_MEuhaB19tYUdMUjjMnQVuwan3d6L1s06JwDPQh_cbft-ajOzx0AFVtnLfLpombKHHnsMZeimGXr92oLQ1CXXA01g/s1600-h/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+072.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 267px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhRxRDnawXnWAgxuXnVrAMQ3GdHJjk6x51T2Z9hMfMliVcBRt4PQ_MEuhaB19tYUdMUjjMnQVuwan3d6L1s06JwDPQh_cbft-ajOzx0AFVtnLfLpombKHHnsMZeimGXr92oLQ1CXXA01g/s400/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+072.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359101152166738738" /></a><br />Nate having fun on the beach!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU5OWUYtSoY-TdwHg9rPeNriafT68cNnTYU4N6vciS4eVSws30i8yf33KZZQ_LKbg289vC1zcFDvfv66177afxges35O1vGsHXTF0QMWNHuxpff5uhHlon8HwkrjZiwuzY6hopSviTXiY/s1600-h/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+008.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 267px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhU5OWUYtSoY-TdwHg9rPeNriafT68cNnTYU4N6vciS4eVSws30i8yf33KZZQ_LKbg289vC1zcFDvfv66177afxges35O1vGsHXTF0QMWNHuxpff5uhHlon8HwkrjZiwuzY6hopSviTXiY/s400/C+A+L+I+F+O+R+N+I+A+008.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5359100876346357394" /></a><br />We are back, and in full swing!

That makes me feel happy! We snorkeled, jet skiied, rode bikes, shopped, ate, went to church in Newport, visited the Newport Temple, spent a lot of time at the beach, laughed, and juist flat out enjoyed being together.michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-84952471248715422652009-07-10T06:47:00.001-07:002009-07-10T06:52:44.976-07:00Missing my blogging friends...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCMQpaK97mbCNdGDkj-89cc1gu_1vvcOM70bSwwEfNW6CTBEG8JE7WCRrc437dhSuUKCE4qRRS4GuTic3VURGHN9pNv2xsKAjIvvFUn8shadJ8fh4CXDhBP7btXSHGEEaZA4_ZOGrerPo/s1600-h/Newport-Beach_.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 265px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCMQpaK97mbCNdGDkj-89cc1gu_1vvcOM70bSwwEfNW6CTBEG8JE7WCRrc437dhSuUKCE4qRRS4GuTic3VURGHN9pNv2xsKAjIvvFUn8shadJ8fh4CXDhBP7btXSHGEEaZA4_ZOGrerPo/s400/Newport-Beach_.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356829018581523042" /></a><br />We are enjoying every minute of our time in Newport.

When summer started I told myself that we as a family where going to stretch, and grow. Go places we haven't been before, do things we haven't done before, etc. I now know how to sew, and LOVE it! I will post some pictures of some blankets I have made tomorrow. We also have painted the craft room, and a few accents that are going in it. Hopefully, we will have it all put together this week. I can't wait to post pictures. I am loving the joy, I am finding, in meeting some personal goals. I have learned that I can do it!!! President Spencer W. Kimball shared the words Do It these words many years ago. I love them. They are so simple, yet have so much meaning behind these 2 little words.michellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00302967424903233519noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3201531635001226066.post-2594209285703095582009-06-27T18:56:00.001-07:002009-06-27T18:59:16.702-07:00Fun site..words<a href="http://www.wordle.net/gallery/wrdl/973272/Michelle" <br /> title="Wordle: Michelle"><img<br /> src="http://www.wordle.net/thumb/wrdl/973272/Michelle"<br /> alt="Wordle: Michelle"<br /> style="padding:4px;border:1px solid #ddd"></a>© 2009 Jonathan Feinberg Terms of Use subscribe <br /><br />I am loving this site!
