He Lives

Easter Morning marks the Resurrection of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Elder Holland gives a great tribute to Him whom I have much gratitude for:

Wheelchair Backflips

This guy is absolutely crazy & amazing. Aaron Fotheringham 17 years of age, was born with Spina Bifida and has shown that nothing is impossible! With a little nudge from your brothers down the BMX bike ramp to get you started...anything can happen! At the age of 14 years of age accomplished the first wheelchair backflip...amazing!

McCall the beautiful!

A fun but too quick of a visit up to the cabin in McCall, ID over Spring Break! Always a blast to hang with the nephews, nieces and family!

I SPY with my little eye....

DEER! On the way home from church a few weeks ago when it was actually warm, Adrianne and I saw this herd of deer just down the street from the church just grazing and enjoying life, so of course we stopped! They actually let us get fairly close within 30' of them before they began to care, and move on! This single doe didn't like the path that her friends were taking, and wouldnt follow them...she looked worried, and contemplated for a minute or so before she figured another path that would connect her back with her buddies. Felt bad for the the poor deer! (literally-haha)

Everything is Amazing, Nobody is Happy!!!

This clip is hilarious and makes you realize how much time has changed...I'm grateful for what we have!

Great Aging Adventure

In our PTA program we have been learning about the aging process in our gerontology class. As part of our learning, we had an 'Adventure' to fulfill to get a better picture of being 'old'! We put on these aging suits which cinch down so that you are stuck hunched over, with stiff joints, cataracts, poor hearing,difficulty picking up feet and overall slowness...then add in a walker and you get the picture. This was an experience that left me sore, and I definately have a lot more sympathy and empathy for my elders! Makes me grateful for my body & a desire to take better care of myself now in preparation for the future!

McCall buddies

Okay so totally cheesy pictures I realize...Adrianne and I took her neices to get their pictures taken. We had so much fun getting them glamorous that we decided to be cheesy & put on our matching McCall,ID t-shirts and get our pictures taken too just for the heck of it!
