A face only a mother... and father, and grandma, and grandpa, uncles & aunts, friends & cousins, the bishop & his wife, and the stranger walking by with his dog... could love!
This picture reminds me of a story. A couple years ago our family was all together eating and JM came back to the table with a brownie on his plate. Our little niece, Maggie, nestled right up to him and while eyeing his plate asked, "Is that chocolate?" We won't talk about the rest of the story or it might make Uncle Corey feel bad. Anyways, if Sam could talk, I'm sure he would have been asking me a question like that, because that's the look he had on his face.
Words can't express how much I love these two guys!!!!!!!
Holy COW, they're CUTE!
His favorite sleeping position. (I have other pictures to prove it!)
Can you believe that THIS used to be....
THIS??
AND IN OTHER NEWS
So, I know you all are thinking, "does she ever take any pictures of anything else besides Sam?" And the answer is, "Not if I can help it!" But I did manage to find some other things that may be interesting on a blog. (But not as cute)
We've been working on remodeling our bathroom. When we moved in 3 years ago the first thing I wanted to get rid of was the blue bath tub and matching sink in the bathroom. Well, we've prettymuch redone the entire house EXCEPT for the blue tub and sink. But slowly, it's coming to pass. Finally. This is a picture of the old cabinets and counter top.
This is a halfway picture. We're still working on the floor, trim, drawers, backsplash, paint, and, yes... the tub. But it looks better, don't you think?
Here is Chance. This is where Chance spends about 50% of his life. He can't bear to leave the top of the stairs because - what if John Michael comes home??? This is the most optimistic creature I've ever seen. The other 50% of his life is spent at JM's feet, sleeping or chewing something.
LOGAN TEMPLE GROUNDS
I gave up the best job in the world to be a Mom. Then I discovered there was a better job... being a Mom. I wouldn't give up staying home with Sam for anything. But at times I do miss working on the Logan Temple Grounds. I miss the quiet, peaceful times where it was just me and a bush to trim or a weed to pull (yes weeds do grow even on temple grounds). The guys I worked with were amazing.
I went back a few weeks ago to say 'Hi' and take a look around at what changes have been made. I had to resist the temptation to sit right down and start deadheading the flowers! Anyways, here's a few pictures I took.
Zinnia with a butterfly.
Osteospermum's that looked like they could have glown in the dark.
Another Zinnia with petunias.
This is a trail the guys made off the south end of the parking lot. Most people don't know it's there. It's beautiful in the spring when the trees and the ground covers are blooming. Sam is up the trail a ways, you can kind of make out the stroller.
One of my favorite places on the grounds. "The Bride's Bench"
Well, OF COURSE I had to end with a picture of Sam!! I've just got so many to share!
Thanks for visiting our blog!
