Darth and Gecko

 Look at this chubby fella.

 Hair swept to the side like an emo kid, amazing.

I don't know if I posted this before (too lazy to go back and check) but when these guys were visiting this guy would follow me to every door I ever went to. It was pretty adorable.

 He loves to be upside down so much, what a fella.

 This is one of the most inspirational pics I have ever seen. This is my new phone screen, telling me I can do it with every glance.

Model shot of the babies, so dang cute.

Happy Valentines!

Happy Valentines everyone! This is an interesting day for it, because I have some mouth problems. I have had an issue with a tooth since November, and this week, finally, the tooth has had enough. It's a crown, and it fell out in November. Then it fell out again on Christmas night, for goodness sake. Then finally yesterday, it completely fractured and broke out. Alas. So after going to the dentist and learning that I was going to have to get an implant, they glued it back in my mouth and said DO NOT USE IT UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES and I said, ok doc. So after going to school today, Husband and I celebrated with a nice dinner and a romance movie. I also had to stop eating by 7:00, since I have a surgery tomorrow for an unrelated tooth to the problem tooth! GAAAAAH the dentistry will never end! So Husband made us a dinner of Cincinnati chili spaghetti. We recently learned of this from a food show that I record, and I wanted to try it! So we did and it was delicious. We had a fun time watching Amelie, (Adam's first time, definitely not my first) and it was a lovely evening. I said goodbye to the YW leaving on her mission tomorrow, and then an early night for both of us, with school and surgeries tomorrow!

(meanwhile I say to look up a recipe for this and make it yourself, it is delicious!)

One last temple trip

One of my YW is going on a mission. This next Wednesday, in fact, she heads into the MTC. I went to her endowment session, and then we decided that we would go one more time before she left. Tonight was the night. There was a lot of craziness in trying to lock down a date, between school and other obligations. We did figure out today about an hour before we left. But she came, as well as her sister, and we had a lovely evening. Of course we had to snap a pic on our way out.

I'm so excited for her to serve the good people of California!

Foto Friday

This amazing animal brought all of her toys up to her chair and then sat here and protected them. What a dang great dog.

Darth and Gecko

It's been a while for these, but lets get back in.

 This is the new pic I send people when I am shocked by something.

 Gecko is a fella that is proud of his own belly.

He just is so cute when he wakes up from naps.

Jar of Love

Tonight for YW, we did a sort-of Valentines activity. We got jars for every girl, and then we had a night of writing nice things for each other, and putting them in the jars. I wasn't expecting to have one, since I'm a leader, but at the end of the night, I had one! I came home and opened it up and there were so many lovely things in here, I just felt so loved and blessed in my calling. If anyone needs an idea for an activity, this is a great one!
