Angels From Heaven- Julie's Project

Julie made 11 x 14 pictures of all four grandchildren. I took a picture of them with my cellphone, but when they're hung up; I'll take a final picture.
Here's Aiden's picture. He was climbing on a latter, and LOVED it!
Here's Logan's picture, He has on his BYU Cougars jersey!
Here's Brooklyns picture, She had this cute pink dress on at Logan's birthday party!

And here's Chandler's picture, he looks so adorable in his church outfit.

Above where the pictures will hang are the words:
Angels from Heaven.
Which I think is appropriate on many levels. Not only is it true, but it's what Julie always calls them!! So cute!

I'm a Big Kid now!

So on Monday, Daniel and I went out and bought a potty training chair for Aiden. By Wednesday, Aiden was running over, and doing it himself!! We could not be more proud of our Aiden. I have to admit, I went into this completely clueless as to how to potty train. And He's doing so much better than I thought he would. And Aiden is so proud of himself. He loves not wearing diapers now! lol!



Phillips' Book of Mormon Challenge

Better late than never..... Our ward, Edgewood Ward, had a Book of Mormon challenge last year, and then your name was engraved into these B.O.M. "Golden Plates." It was a really cute idea. And for one of our MANY New Years goals, Daniel and I are having our own Challenge. We're going to read a little each night as a family, till we've finished it. The "Goal" part is that we'll be finished by this December!! lol! Wish us luck!

Kurtis and Brenda...

In a supermarket, Kurtis the stock boy, was busily working when a new voice came over the loud speaker asking for a carry out at register 4. Kurtis was almost finished, and wanted to get some fresh air, and decided to answer the call. As he approached the check-out stand a distant smile caught his eye, the new check-out girl was beautiful. She was older,maybe 26 and his was 22; he fell in love. Later that day, after his shift was over, he waited by the punch-clock to find out her name. She came into the break-room, smiled softly, took her card and punched out, then left. He looked at her card, BRENDA. He walked out only to see her start walking up the road. Next day, he waited outside as she left the supermarket, and offered her a ride home. He looked harmless enough, and she accepted. When he dropped her off, he asked if maybe he could see her again, outside of work. She simply said it wasn't possible.
He pressed and she explained she had two children and she could'nt afford a babysitter, so he offered to pay for the babysitter. Reluctantly she accepted his ofer for a date for the following Saturday. That Saturday night he arrived at her door only to have her tell him that she was unable to go with him. The babysitter had called and canceled. To which Kurtis simply said, "Well, let;s take the kids with us." She tried to explain that taking the children was not an option, but again not taking no for an answer, he pressed. Finally Brenda, brought him inside to meet her children. She had an older daughter who was as cute as a bug, Kurtis thought, then Brenda brought out her son, in a wheelchair. He was born a paraplegic with Down Syndrome.
Kurtis asked Brenda,"I still don't understand why the kids can't come with us?" Brenda was amazed. Most men would run away from a women with two kids, especially if one had disibilities-just like her husband and father of the children had. Kurtis was not ordinary---he had a different mindset.
That evening Kurtis and Brenda loaded up the kids, went to dinner and the movies. When her son needed anything Kurtis would take care of him. When he needed to use the bathroom, he picked him up out of the wheelchair, took him and brought him back. The kids loved Kurtis. At the end of the evening, Brenda knew this man was the man she was going to marry and spend the rest of her life with.

A year later, they were married and Kurtis adopted both of her children. Since then they have added more children to their family.
So what happened to Kurtis the stockboy and Brenda the check-out girl?
Well, Mr. and Mrs. Kurt Warner now live in Arizona, where he is currently employed as the quarterback of the National Football League Arizona Cardinals. The two- time NFL's Most Valuable player and a Super Bowl's Most Valuable Player has brought his Cardinals to the XLIII Superbowl. Is this a suprise ending or could you have guessed that he was not an ordinary person.

Footprints...

... I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me." The Lord replied, "My precious, precious child, I love you and would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, It was then that I carried you."
