It Was A Miracle

For those of you who know, my trip to Boise for my citizenship interview was a little scary. And you should all know the story. I just want to testify of how miraculous this was. The Lords hand was guiding the entire interview and the outcome. I KNOW that He does hear and answer our prayers. I also know that you can never be TOO honest. Always do what is right - let the consequence follow. And if it is right, the Lord is bound to bless you. And blessed I was. I will be privileged to become an American on June 25th. How I love the Lord and His endless mercies and boundless blessing! These pictures are of Chad and I at the Boise Temple. It really is a beautiful temple.

Spring Is Here!

I can always tell spring is here by the blossoms on my tree. This is my favorite tree because when it blossoms it looks so beautiful. The color is a little hidden in these pictures because of the shade but you can still get the idea. It is usually in full bloom by Mother's Day. This year it was a week later. I just love spring, and I love these picts of my kids!

Emily's PreSchool Graduation

My little Princesses

My sweet Emily is all done PreSchool and is ready for kindergarten! Part of the program was that they sang "Our Apple preschool has a girl and Emily is her Name-o" And she got to sing "E-M-I-L-Y" It was cute, and I'm proud of her for doing that because she can be a shy little girl.

Days At The Zoo

It has been fun to be with my kids this week. Thursday, Emily's Preschool went to the zoo. So Shelby and I got to go with her. It was fun. She had so much fun running with her little friend Mea. Then on Friday, Riley's classes went. So Emily, Shelby and I got to go AGAIN!! How fun. The kids loved it all. They can't stop talking about it. I can't get over those Tortoises! Needless to say, I am totally worn out. Being pregnant this time around is hard. I don't know if it is because I'm getting older, or if I'm out of shape, or if having 3 other kids to take care of is the factor. I'm just thankful for Chad who helps me out completely without complaining. I love you.

Mother's Day

We had a great day. I recieved half a dozen roses from my lovely husband. They made my day. He also bought me 2 bags of cotton candy. MMMm. My favorite. I ate one then shared the other bag with my kids! Chad made us steaks for dinner which were delicious. Thanks hon! I gave my talk in church. I thought it went well. I love when people come and tell me, "that's just what I needed to hear today." Then I at least know that the spirit touched someone. But it was good. I actually like to prepare and give talks. So here are just a few more pictures that I have been taking. Riley is even in them!

Okay, so I just figured this out...sorta. These are just a few pictures that I've been playing with on my new digital camera (still figuring that out too!). They are not the best, but they will just have to do for now. That's a picture of Chad and our new computer. This is so fun. Be sure to watch for more fun, I'm sure I will go a little crazy for the first little while, but you don't mind do you?

Brand new

So, here I am. But alas, I have no idea how to put a picture on here. Oh well, I'm sure I will figure it out soon enough. This is all brand new to me. But it is so fun. It is approaching the afternoon, which means my "morning" sickness is going to grab hold. So I need to go lay down. But I just wanted to get something on here. So stay tuned for more fun and games from the dean household!
