Touching moment

Most of you are aware that my Mom is a breast cancer survivor. Last night, I was watching So you think you can dance and was so bored. Finally this dance routine was performed. It touched my heart. Even now words cannot describe how I felt. My mind raced to all the emotions my Mom faced and her struggles. Even though I am miles from my Mom, and did not see face to face the daily struggles. I admire her courage, strength and love of God.

It makes me realize the value of life and time with family and friends. That is what truely matters in life.

Japenese Night








Michael planned a special date, we went to Japenese culture night in Ogden. I have to say I enjoy all American food. Our options for dinner were cold noodles, a seaweed roll with rice and spam and soy beans with teriyaki sauce. Well if I was Japanese I probably would be skinny like they are. The middle picture is the inside of the Ogden Buddhist temple. We then were able to see performers drum and dance. My favorite dancer is this little girl. So stinkin cute.

Michael and Baby Finn 4months old-almost





Sweet baby Finn...words cannot describe how much I enjoy this little guy. He is smiling and just started to turn over. I can tell that Fin loves his Mom and Dad. Finn is so chubby. Chubby babies are the best. Michael is so good with kids. I love to see him hold babies and even comfort the kids when they get hurt.
I have not changed diapers since I was like 12 when I babysat. So Michael gave me the 101. Finn did wet our bed, much better than the alternative than peeing on of us. We fed him, burped him and changed a couple more diapers. It really was a great day.

Our Animal Kingdon







We have a fun little animal kingdom,as I like to call it. We got Ziggy cat about the same time we got Ziggy dog. Ziggy(cat) has a lot of fur and no matter how many times I tried to comb when we first got her they would not come out. Plus, she would get really mad at Michael and me for holding her down. So we had her shaved for the summer. Michael took her in and she came out looking like a lion. It is histerical and she looks cuter than she is nice.

Our pug loves food, including peanut butter. So I gave him the empty can to go wild.

Aidan is a lover of the dogs. His summer responsiblity is to take the dogs out and to take care of them during the day. Not such a bad chore since he loves them so. I think Aidan thinks he is the dog whisperer. Hee hee.

Ok no we did not get a bird. This picture is outside our bathroom window. This bird is setting in our grape vine. She has decided that she is going to get in through the window. She pecks at this window for hours. She is cute to watch. We hope she stays around for a while.
