Live In the Moment

And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” (Elder Ballard’s talk May, 2008 quote by Author Anna Quindlen speaking of her children)

- I put this on here to remind me to take time to enjoy the little things in life, or to enjoy the moments that make some of Life's Precious Memories.

Halloween Pictures (Yay!)

Happy Days are Here Again! I've got my camera cord. Ready, set, post!

Nathan came home from school and said that someone was having a party that started at 5:30. Of course, he told me this at 5:00 and it takes 20 minutes to get there. So, I threw in a pizza and dressed the girls. I had been working on a red cloak for Meredith, but it didn't work out. I was in a rush, and you should never sew in a rush if you want to doing everything right. (One more reason that makes me a terrible seamstress.) Luckily we had Emily's costume that she wore 2 years ago.

My happy girls (after the party).

That serious face means that she is really enjoying herself :)

Hopefully next year we'll be able to go to the ward party with the trunk-or-treat. The girls were sick this year (wonderfully timed cold). I'm not a big fan of trick-or-treating unless we go to people's homes that we know, and since our ward is pretty scattered that wasn't very convenient. I'm glad we had a party to go to instead.
