Pump up the Jam...

Not sure where she got her rhythm from but this was pretty funny to watch!

President Gordon B. Hinckley

In case you haven't heard already, Pres. Hinckley passed away last night. He was the Prophet I remember most because I was about 15/16 when he was called. He was a great man and prophet and we will miss him.

First ski lesson

This was Livi's first time on skis. We just had her slide around in Nana and Papa's driveway. We hadn't bought the edgie wedgie yet to keep her skis together but she loved it. She has told me several times since that she loves her edgie wedgie. She had a blast sledding down the driveway with her cousin Emily. We could hardly talk her into coming back inside to warm up.

Merry Late Christmas

Ok, I'm a little behind but this is Livi in her cute Christmas dress. My little princess....

I'm a blogging machine..

I've been tagged!

The RULES:

A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.

B. Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.

C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog....

My Six:

1. I'm a quilting fool.... Probably about 6 or 7 years ago I swore up and down to my Mom that I would NEVER want to make quilts. Now I can't stop! I now have a huge stash of fabric yet I keep buying more. My favorite quilt to make is a baby quilt. I have actually helped make several baby bedding sets for families. I love to design them and quilts.

2. I'm a shopaholic. Yes, I know--real shocker there! It's really Holly Perry's fault. JK There's just something satisfying in buying something cute for a great price! It's addicting!

3. I love being a Mom--I know that's been used but seriously kids are awesome! Livi says the most hilarious things. Lately she is into giving "loves" (a hug) randomly. It's great! I could write all day about her but I'll save that for another post.

4. I like to change stuff around at home. I actually started this sometime in junior high. I like to move furniture around, paint walls, redesign... although with all the remodeling here I'm starting to slow down a little. It usually takes me 2 or 3 tries to get a design I like.

5. I'm a hair "dye"er and highlighter. I have been changing my hair color every couple of months since I was 15 or 16. I LOVE red hair and now that I am older I don't change it as drastically as I used to. I totally come by it honestly as my Grammie miraculously does not have gray hair yet....

6. "The Office" is my favorite show. This writer's strike bites! I have the theme song as my cell phone ring. I was so glad Jim and Pam finally hooked up. Kevin and Dwight are hilarious. It's great fun!

Ok, I think everyone I know has been tagged. I need more friends with blogs! So I will tag Holly P., Anna and Tess again... they haven't done it yet :) and anyone who has a blog that I don't know about--you better let me know if you have one!

Christmas Nativity

This is a picture of the Smith Family Home Evening night that Aunt Becky put together. All the great-grandkids did a GREAT job at staying quiet and doing everything they were asked.
