One Reason I Love Conference Week!!

Ok, so I really do love to listen to conference! I love the messages we hear from the leaders and the council that we are given. I have to confess, however, that there is another reason that I love conference week! It is the semi-annual Memories scrapbook warehouse sale!!! I have an addiction, it is true. I LOVE to buy scrapbook supplies! I used to love to scrapbook but now I just take pictures and collect supplies (who has time to sit and scrapbook??) I always go and I always buy! The sale runs Wed-Friday the week before conference weekend. It is a tradition of mine that I love. I really don't need anymore but I can't resist! Ok, so this looks like a lot of stuff but when I went (which was the last hour of the sale) and everything was BOGO! I couldn't resist! So I bought a bunch of cute stuff for my sister and called her and told her that I had her Christmas present already! I got rub-ons, ribbon, embelishments, stamps, albums, storage items etc. I got all of it for $75....not bad since if I would buy it full price at Roberts it would be at least $350! Anyway...this is one of my hobbies and I love it! If any of you need some cute stuff, come on over, I'd love to share (since there is NO WAY I will ever use it all!!!)

Trying Again:)

Ok, I am going to try this again and add some more pics of my other children..yes I have 2 more kids, it just seems like I am always posting pictures of Kaitlyn. Maybe that's because she is involved in so much that I take lots of her lately. McKay and Lexi are really cute too:) McKay was just selected last week to be a 6th grade peer leader. That means he gets to help with school activities and show new kids around the school. I think it is kind of like a student body officer except he was selected by the teachers instead of being voted in. He is doing AWESOME at school (straight As) and is so good about getting all of his homework done without being asked. Now if I could just get him to clean his room as diligently as he is about homework. Lexi is on a comp team for dance again this year and loves it. She is still into Hannan Montana anything and knows the words to every song she has ever sung. I hope Miley Cyrus comes back to Utah in concert! Lexi has really developed a love for reading and is reading all of the time. She is such a fun kid to have around! Friends are really important to her and she is always planning "late night" activities for her and her friends. It is a riot to have them around and watch them be so girly! Ok, enough about my cute kids!
