This YouTube video is hilarious. My mom was laughing her head of when she watched it. Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDPi4buduY0
It’s a spoof off the old Reese’s commercials, except this one is how the General Authorities eat their Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. The guy who imitates their voices does a fabulous job!
Here in Spanish Fork and Springville, we are by four large wildfires. This is what it looks like outside my window.
Don’t ask, I’ll just tell you.
Memin began when Neil didn’t want to get in his car seat. I can still remember my cousin Karina’s friend Brown Mouse, and figured I give it a shot. I asked him if he wanted to hold a mouse, and he could if he got in his car seat. He promptly hopped in. I told him to hold out his hands, and when he did, pretended to hold out a mouse. Figuring that this new imaginary friend would need a name, I dubbed her Memin.
Two nights ago we were reading scriptures and Neil was running all over the place squealing and playing with Spencer. They were having so much fun that he did not want to sit down and be quiet. I asked him if he wanted to hold Memin he had to sit down and be quiet. He said “ I hold Lemon!” “No Neil, it’s Memin.” “ I hold Memin!”. He kept repeating this over and over and over and over again. It was really funny.
I know it sounds really little kiddish, but hey, it worked!
As most of you know, we recently moved into our new home. Last Sunday I went to our new ward, then went home and didn’t go to 17th ward. I still wanted to go to mutual though, so my Dad dropped me off back in Spanish Fork. I ran up the parking lot and around the corner. My friends had there back to me and were standing under the overhang, so they didn’t see me. I yelled “I’m back guys!!” Alisa turned around and grabbed me in a huge hug, and Vickie yelled “Group hug!!” I was totally squashed. It was one of the best moments of my entire life.
I just want to thank my friends for all the wonderful things they do for me and how welcome they make me feel! I would also like to thank all the people that helped us pack, move, clean, and unpack. A special thanks to Sister Albertson, you are such a saint, I don’t know how we would have managed without you!
I am way sad to be moving, but I will come back and visit all the time, and we are only ten minutes away (hint, hint).
Hope you all have a great week!!
As you can probably already tell by the title, we are moving. We found the perfect house down in Springville. It has three levels, an upstairs, a main floor, and a downstairs.
Upstairs there are four medium sized bedrooms, a game closet, a bathroom, and a master bedroom.
On the main floor there is a living room, a dining room, a computer room, the kitchen, a laundry room, a bathroom, and a door to the garage.
In the downstairs, there is a bathroom, a guest bedroom, a big family room, a small kitchen, and a ping pong table (the current owners are leaving it there). There is also a big backyard with a bunch of fruit tree’s.
The couple we are buying it from had six kids, but they all moved out, so they are building a new house down on their property by the river bottoms. The husband works down at BYU teaching Horticulture, so that means he knows a ton about plants and bugs.
They have an apple tree that he has grafted four different types of branches into, so there are five different types of apples on one tree! There are also 12 different types of grapes on the back fence, so it is a very private back yard.
We are closing on May 24, and will be moving out a few days later. We will not be selling our current house, but will be renting it out instead. We are all way excited. I will post pictures as soon as we move in.
I case you didn’t get the memo, my e-mail has changed due to the policy that you have to be 13 in order to be able to get an e-mail on g-mail. It is still the same but it is at sfcn.org instead of gmail.com. Here is the full thing. imexcitedtoo@sfcn.org You will have to use this one if you want me to get the e-mail, or it will not work. Stinky policy.
This year I was in The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, a production from Spanish Fork Youth Theater, directed by Sister Christensen. I was in the angel chorus. I also had one line when I ran across the stage screaming with one of the main characters on my back. It was lots of fun, and I am hoping to do it again next year!
Number One: The wedding was so emotional, even the cake was in tiers.
I love that one!
Number Two: You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy ice cream, and that is about the same thing!
Let me tell you, that is a true statement!
Hope you have an awesome week.
On Thursday, Spencer came down with the flu. This is not a good thing, because when the flu hits one of us, it hits all of us. By Friday afternoon he was all better. On Saturday we all went outside and pulled out our cannas, tomatoes, and peppers from our gardens. Afterwards I was feeling very tired and nothing sounded good. I got sick about an hour later, and so did Abbie. Later that night I got a priesthood blessing from Daddy and one of our home teachers and didn't get sick all night! Daddy also helped me finish writing my mystery story for English. Thanks Daddy! So now I am feeling fine, Mark is not, and neither is Daddy. I really don’t like flu season!
Here I am, sanding boards for some shelves for my room!
I have been practicing my food photography. How does this look?
Here is the afghan that I was working on during the Owlz game that we went to. I finished a green stripe. The Owlz mascot came and tried to take it away from me so I would watch the game. 
Rachel and I shared a delicious glass of strawberry orange julius. 
Yum!
Our family needs some good Sunday activities that are worshipful and fun. If you have any good ideas please tell us.
