A simple truth

(I love Greg Olsen pictures. Check him out on facebook)

Song Choice

I decided to look at my iPod this morning and see what the most played songs were:

Let me in - David Osmond
Go Ye now In Peace- Envoy
This is the Christ- George Dryer
Abide with Me - Michael Dowdle
When you believe- Celtic Women
Let me in- Osmond's
Abide with me- Voice Mail
Be still my soul- Envoy
O Israel- Greg Simpson
Carpenters Son - Kenneth Cope

This is really interesting when you consider that I bought the Let me in from David Osmond on 8-27-10. (Yes I listen to that song at least once a day)

I am grateful for the way music makes me feel.
Last week I heard a couple perform Be still my soul, I heard them perform it again last night at their Baptism...wow, it was so beautiful and brought such peace to my heart.

This morning I came in from mowing the lawn, Nat was in the shower and music was in the air from her ipod (she has very different tastes than I)
There in the middle of the kitchen floor Boo was dancing, shaking her caboose and head. She looked up and me and said, "Come on Dad dance" so we danced for the next few minutes.
Music is very important to me and I hope is and will be to my children and grandchildren as well.

Famaversary

I really should have posted this on Sept 2 but got too busy.
Sept 2 is a special day in our family, 13 years ago Nat and I got married, 2 years ago Boo became ours forever.
It is hard to imagine my life without Boo in it and even harder to remember it without Nat. (Dark days for sure)

I am so grateful for Nat Boo Jo Josh Randy Misty Cody Little J and new arrival January.
Without my family life would mean nothing, i would have no purpose (since I can't stand sports)
What a boring person I would be.

A Great Week

I have spent the last two days (and have two more to go) driving down to Provo for BYU Education Week. It is the first time I have been able to go and I am so grateful that I can spend this week there.
My wife is so supportive of me using a week of vacation to go. What a lucky guy I am.
I think I will go every year, at least for a part of the week.

Simple yet true

Do nothing day

I had alot of projects I wanted to get started on today (as well as just hang with Boo and Nat)
Well here it is at the end of the day and I spent 90% of it hanging out with Boo.
Wrestling
Playing Monkeys on the bed
acting like dogs
Fixing lunch
Taking out trash
Sitting on the couch reading then watching ipods
To name just a few things.

I wish I had done more in the yard but nothing compares to the feeling I had when Boo just gave me a big hug and said "Tank you Dadeeee"

Ice Cream Yummy

I left the Moose Tracks ice cream out the other night to get a bit softer. Little did I realize that Boo had climbed up on the counter to see what was there.

How she got the only big spot of fudge that was left I do not know.
