Anna's Bridal Shower & Jewelry
The shower was the next day & there was a great turnout! It was nice to see so many people that love Anna (since I'm so far away!). Looks like she's got some good friends. For the family side there was me, Mom, Esther, Sheri & her daughter Makayla, & Joanne. She got some nice gifts too!
One of the things we did was to stop at Michael's (craft store) to find some more beads to use for Anna & her bridesmaid's jewelry for the wedding. Found some beautiful things! I just got the prototype put together and just LOVE how they turned out!

Pioneer Day in Kanosh
We always have fun on Pioneer day! This year was a special treat because my brother Michael, his wife Joanne, and their kids Brent & Chelsea stopped on their way up to BYU Idaho (dropping off Chelsea). My parents came down too. We all had SUCH a nice visit! Another bright point of the day was that my old 1st counselor came down! Karen Baadsgaard and her family came down from Roosevelt (sp?). It was so grea to see them! Can't believe how big the kids are! The funniest part of the day was the greased pig contest (yes, a real pig - and the winner takes him home!) Usually the circle is so tight around the poor piggy that there's no chance it's getting away. However, this year he did! Should have seen the crazy crowd running after the little piggy! Too hilarious!
We're not CRIMINALS!

Paperwork Update
The hard part has been that part of the craft room is my amazing inventory of bead supplies for my business. So I have to re-organize a LOT of that too. I'm actually really excited about finally having my supplies in a better system so I don't have to spend so much time looking for a tiny specific piece for an order that needs to go out. I'll be mounting these huge boxes (like tool boxes with little drawers) on the wall in the office. I can't wait until this is done! It's going to be great!
I still need to find a good baby gate to go at the top of the stairs. There are 2 gates that were left here when we moved in, but one's a bit rickety and I can't figure out how to use the other one! We're thinking we'd like to get one more twin bed too. We found out that we can only get licensed for as many kids as there are beds/rooms for. Currently we have 1 twin, a foldable crib, and the queen guest bed in the basement. We also still need to get the little magnetic locks for all the cupboards in the house that have chemicals (anything that says, "harmful if swallowed").
I'm kind of stressing about the backyard too. Dave (our landlord) still has a TON of wood stuff and yard tools in the back yard. So we either need to fix up some sort gate or organize it all in a way that will be "safe" for our inspection.
