Mom and Dad's 40yr Anniversary Party

Ok.... I have no idea why these pictures are posting in different sizes and I'm too tired to care right now :)

But it was such a fun family party last night!

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.” --Dr. Seuss

We may not have it all together, but together we have it all!

"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh you memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience."

Gordon B. Hinckley, 2006

If I had my child to raise all over again, I'd build self-esteem first, and the house later. I'd finger paint more, and point the finger less. I would do less correcting and more connecting. I'd take my eyes off the watch, and watch with my eyes. I'd take more hikes and fly more kites. I'd stop playing serious, and seriously play. I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars. I'd do more hugging and less tugging.

Dian Lommas, from "If I Had My Child to Raise Over Again."

"Be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled, will disappear all too soon... and that you will, to your surprise, miss them, profoundly."

President Thomas S. Monson

Kids say the funniest Things...

Kaleb is jumping in front of the TV and a little kid is trying to talk to him and asks Briana - "What is wrong with Him" Briana replies "He has Autism" little boy "What is Autism" Briana says "You know when you can't talk, and you wear diapers, because a doctor gave you an Autism shot" - Too Funny!!!

Briana: "Bless Me & Excuse Me"
Mom: "What?"
Briana: "Bless me because I sneezed and Excuse me because my sneeze made me fart."

A boy is teasing Briana on the bus and she replies "You better be careful my dads a prisoner..."

Bree: "Mom I like Kaleb with Autism" - "I think he's cutier that way"

Bree: "Mom the snow looks like beautiful white bushes everywhere"

Bree: "Mom I'm a starving morman" Mom: "Do you mean starving marven" Bree: "I'm not a marven"
