4am...........

So this morning I was just done sleeping by 4am. I've been sick for about three days so I guess I had just slept myself out! However, my alarm was set to go off at 5:15am anyways. I left the house around 5:45 and arrived at Alli's place around 6am. We headed across the mountain for an 8am temple session. I just found myself feeling so grateful that I was able to A. get to the temple B. Not have to worry about a job that would keep me from going (thank you Paul for always supporting me being an at-home mom!) C. Be with my daughter as she experienced the temple and D. Know that it could have been any of my children sitting next to me.

I am blessed....................

I'm climbing it!

I'll be at the top of this mountain the last week of July! 9600 ft at the top!

Blessing Dress!

Here is the blessing dress for baby Harmon! Hope you like it Dani!

Water..........

I'm an Aquarian. I think this may be the cause and root of all water problems that seem to plague Paul and I. In our old house on Pacific Terrace we had geothermal. This is supposed to be a free way to heat the house and pool. It was not free. We pulled our well and replaced pipes a lot. I figured that when we built a house that we would be water problem free! Wrongo! We have been in this house for 2 1/2 years and we've had the well pulled 3 times! The first time there was a hole in one of the pipes. This well goes down 850 feet. The company had never had a hole in these kinds of pipes - EVER! Enter - the Stewart family. The second time our pump in the well went out. No pump - no water. They couldn't believe the pump would go out. Enter yet again - the Stewart family. For the past week we have been struggling to keep the well on. It stops. We turn off the power to it for 5 minutes. We turn it back on. The water starts back. up. This would go on about 4 -6 times a day. So first they replaced a wire in the well that they thought was burned out. Did this fix it? No. Then they replaced the control panel and thought for sure that would fix it. Did this fix it? No. Yesterday they pulled all 850 ft. of pipe out. Today they put in a new pump. Did this fix it? So far! So while I have water today and didn't yesterday, or the day before, or.......etc........I am pessimistic that I will have water in the morning. Anyone know of some weird water curse going around?

93

I just counted. 93. That's the number. The number of what you may ask? The number of pairs of socks Paul has. How is that even possible. He just cleaned them out and replaced so many with new socks. I don't think he threw any away. 93 pair? I just can't even wrap my brain around that number. Oh wait, there's 94...........he's wearing a pair.............

And p.s. - that's only dress socks. This doesn't count the athletic socks in the downstairs bedroom in a drawer.

Obsessive sewing..........

I got home today at 10am from excercising and this is the first moment I haven't been cutting out material or sewing. LOVE these patterns! The single ones are capris. The matching ones are long pant for my two granddaughters! Love them!
