Lesson Learned

Yesterday we made the weekly trip to the grocery store to pick up some items for this next week. As we were walking into the store we passed a kid sitting on the sidewalk smoking who was way to young to be smoking, wearing dirty clothes and messy hair. I would have normally just walked by not paying attention but I was holding Logan.

He is into waving at everyone and everything lately. As we walked passed this kid Logan had a big smile waving right at him. He looked up at him and grinned.

I learned from my 11 month year old no matter what people look like, what stage of life they are in or where they come from we are all God's children and he cares about each one of us! Oh how blessed I am to have him as an example in my life.

Next time I will be the one waving at the stranger sitting on the sidewalk.

Ear Candle...

So about a week ago I woke up and one of my ears was clogged! After about 20 attempts of trying to clear it and 40 q-tips later I decided to call my always trusty, has a cure for everything mother-in-law. I told her about my current situation of going crazy not being able to hear. She said to come up to her house later that night after work and she could fix it.

I march downstairs to tell Trent and the first thing he says is EAR CANDLES! I must have been born on another planet because I had never heard of them. He then goes on to explain to me that you get a hollow cotton dipped bees wax tube, stick it in your ear, lite it and somehow it removes all the ear wax from your ear. It sounded a bit hokey but I was willing to try anything at that point.

We head up to Trent's parents house to find these tubes. I lay on my side stick the candle in my ear and lite it...five minutes later I can hear! My ear popped and it felt great! I did the other side because I could now hear better out of the ear that had just been candled (is that a word). Since then I have told everyone about it!

There are mixed reviews on the subject but anytime to feel like your ears need a good cleaning I highly recommend this!

(I wasn't naked like the photo! You can leave your clothes on when you do it, just to try to blow the flame out! Something about flaming hair! Cut the end off when you are done!)

Working...Not This Week!

We are off on our adventure to sunny San Diego! After doing my companies Platinum event we decided it was a good time to get away and get some sun on our very white legs! Logan is extra excited and can't wait to go to SeaWorld to see all the fish...his favorite! When we come back I will be hosting my jewlery party where you will not want to miss! Everything is under $3.00! Perfect to stock up on Christmas Presents, Birthday gear or to revamp your jewlery all together! At these prices you can! More to come on it but mark your calendars for October 29th!

Stairs!!!

Logan's newest accomplishment! If you're not watching he will be half way up the stairs! For some reason I can't get it to face the right way. Turn your head to the left and watch.

Bear Lake

Right before school started we headed up to Bear Lake with Trent's parents, little sister and brother. The guys spent the mornings fishing and the girls went shopping and eating raspberry shakes. We ate dinner at the Pickleville playhouse and spent some time playing games and playing at the beach. I had never been to Bear Lake and I was so surprised how clear and blue the lake was.

The only problem was that Trent and I got food poisoning the night we headed up. After throwing up a few times I felt better but Trent was sick for another day. Next time we will not be eating in Logan on our way up...if I could only remember where we ate I would advise everyone to stay away!

Here are a few pictures of our good times. Sadly most of my photos corrupt. Guess we will have to go back to get some more!

I WIN!!!

I found a awesome blog through a friend and she was having a contest. Needless to say it was for stationary and those of you who know me know that I would cut off my right arm for stationary! So I left a comment on her blog and I got picked!!!! I won a beautiful set of stationary for my very own, one of these up top. I don't even want to use it it is that beautiful! Squealing like a child and thinking I won the lottery!

They have some awesome product and I will be putting in my order soon! They have some great custom products and now is the time to work on your holiday cards!!! Check out their website at http://www.finestationery.com/ or http://finestationery.blogspot.com/

I feel so lucky today!
