First Grade Field Trip
It is important to me to spend time in my children's classroom or on field trips to have more time together and meet their friends.

Young's Orchard
Arizona blessed from my dad's personal orchard.
All types of random citrus, with pummelos the size of your head.

Spring General Conference 2012
My goal this year was to have my kids more involved in the content of the talks.
We had colored coded post-it notes on the wall of the 12 apostles. It was great for me to see my eldest walk up and put a sticky note every 10 minutes (especially when the younger ones' attentions started dwindling off).
Quote highlights:
"Why be jealous when I choose to be kind?"-Holland
"Stop it!" -Uchtdorf
"Even if grievances did not start with you, they can end with you." -Holland
"Don't delay... It's getting late!" -Holland
"There is nothing that cannot be undone." -Holland
"Don't judge me because I sin differently than you." -Uchtdorf
"Our degree of gratitude is a measurement of our love for Him." -Nelson
"Saying 'let me know how I can help' is not helpful." -Rasband
"Do you ever pause for meditation?" -Monsoon
"Parents, do not make all the choices for your children." -Wilson
"Devote yourself to your family and everything else will improve." -Ballard
I especially loved the last quote. I am working on my family right now. I am working on being a better person. My the Lord guide me in my new adventure.

Best kind of sleepovers
My kids think it is a treat to sleep in their siblings' rooms.
Yesterday I found this. The spare toddler/ crib mattress pulled out from under the bunk beds with a Larissa's huge bear as their pillows.
(The quality is poor from a cellphone camera with the lights off, but I think you can imagine the fun.)
