Sister Rohwer

Sister Rohwer is doing great in the state of Florida and loving it! She has had a lot of success and I am really proud of her. She is the cutest sister missionary I have ever seen, and I can't get over how long her hair is!  She is surrounded by gators and rides that bike of hers everywhere. It is hot and humid but she says she loves it!

Lauren taught this man Archie and he made a full turn around from where he was at to get baptized. He loves the gospel and it is a miracle he even entered the waters of baptism.  It is because of Lauren that he decided he wanted to listen to the message the missionaries had to offer.

This letter home made me laugh out loud and keep laughing for a few good days after! Bless her sweet little heart!

I love this sweet sister of mine and couldn't be more proud of her!

Chugz For Lauren

Lauren told us in an email to all go and enjoy a treat at Chugz, so we all stopped at Chugz one afternoon to celebrate Sister Rohwer and enjoy a Chugz diet coke and a cookie.

Sunday Walks

This weather is so great, and we are loving being outside. When we get the chance we like to go walk the river trail at Logan River Golf Course. The kids have a great time, and I enjoy walking hand in hand with my hubby!

Crazy Week At The Karren's

So, you know those weeks where you have to eat candy and drink a lot of diet coke to get you through the week. Well boy oh boy did I have one of those.  Robin and Ted had asked us to watch their kids for the week and Josh ended up having to go on a work trip to St. George for like 4 days. It was me and me only with 6 kids.  It was quite the week and one I don't know if I will ever come back from :)

Of course Stella wouldn't sleep in her own bed, so she had to sleep with me, which meant I was kicked in the back the entire night and didn't sleep.

The kids played dress ups the entire week and I had to listen to those dang high heels clack on the wood floor over and over again!

And those are the only pictures I got, because I barely had time to go to the bathroom or bush my teeth, let alone take pictures. The last night I decided to take the kids to eat instead of make them food.  The two older kids were gone so it was the 4 younger kids and me.  We went to Wendy's and I made them all eat at one table while I sat at one across from them by myself. Ha ha ha! I just needed a second of peace and quiet. It did't help that they all got microphones in their kids meals and each sang something different from them the whole way home.

The kids were actually really good, and it wasn't that bad, it is more funny than anything. It was just a lot of work and we were all happy when the time came for us to go home and sleep in our own beds.

Welcome To The Dollhouse

Pretty Little Liars is such a creepy show! It is one of those shows that is way more fun to watch with other people than by yourself. The season finale was coming up and we were having a party to watch  it together. Kenz got these dolls from Kelsi and went to Bug's house and took pictures of the dolls and then sent those pictures with a note to Bug. So dang creepy!

Bug wasn't the only one pranked by these dang dolls, I came home one night to a little surprise in my closet and the fridge. It freaked me out!!

The night of the party, Bug decorated her whole house with dolls and made it as creepy as possible.

We all dressed as A and watched the episode. Even though the show is kinda dumb, it still is scary and fun to watch together.

Cutest Little Friends

These girls have a good time together.  They can be silly and laugh together. Friends are so fun, and I hope that Stella will always choose good friends.

Drake Started Soccer

Drake started his first sport.... Soccer.  He had a lot of fun, and it is a good way for him to burn some energy! He didn't make contact with the ball once all season, but at least he was part of a team and had fun.
