Skipping school

Today we skipped 1/2 the day of school so I could take the kids to Shoshone falls. Right now the falls are really full and I knew it would be awesome for them to see! It was so neat. You could see a rainbow in the air from all of the humidity coming off of the falls. It was definitely worth skipping school for. I really enjoyed the morning with the kids.

Yay for a hooky day! That is really beautiful, I love the pics with the rainbow!

This is the recipe I use for the beans...except I do a 2 lb bag and soak them overnight first, then throw them in the crockpot, cover with water, double the onions/garlic/spices (I don't double the salt though). It makes a TON so I feeze them in meal size portions for later.

Coming to terms.....

I love having 5 children. They are the joy of my life. I love every single one of them and wouldn't change who they are, but one struggle I've had is that I desperately wish that my little Hailey could have a sister. I grew up in a girl family where I had one brother and six sisters. I am close to my sisters and I talk to a couple of them every day. They are my best friends and we support one another through our ups and downs. More than anything I wish Hailey could have a sister because I love having sisters so much....don't get me wrong I love my boys and wouldn't give them up or trade them for a girl any day, I just want Hailey to have a sister to feel close to like I have. Maybe I'm a little selfish and I should just be grateful for the wonderful and healthy kids that I have....and believe me I do feel thankful for that. Maybe a sister was just too much to ask for. I have spent many fast Sundays fasting for myself to come to terms with the fact that Haile...

Goodby to Jasper

Around 5 our neighbor knocked on our door and showed me that Jasper was laying in the road in front of our house dead. :( I'm so sad. I'm going to miss him. He was my faithful running companion. On Monday when we ran his fur was covered with frost when we got back because it was so cold. I got him so food and petted him and told him what a great running friend he is. He was such a smart dog he knew all of the turn around points when I would run. He would stop and wait for me at every one of them and if I kept going he would lick my leg and then keep running with me. I hate to be licked and he would always sneak and lick me whenever possible. Every time I was getting into the van he would lick my jeans. I always felt safe running with him because people are so scared of him and I know he would have protected me if I'd needed it. We are going to get another dog but I can't imagine that we will ever get one that is as great of a companion as Jasper. Jasper was such a lovin...
