Have you seen it?

Mesa Arizona Easter Pageant: Jesus The Christ.... It tells of Jesus's birth, ministry, death, & resurrection in a wonderful theatrical performance. It's FREE to anyone who would like to come & is on the front lawn of the Mesa Temple grounds (525 East Main St.). It starts @ 8pm & is about an hour long. The performances are in Spanish this weekend, but March 30-April 3 all performances will be in English. Bring your family & come enjoy this great production!
Some cast members walk around before & after the performance so you can see/ talk to them & take pictures if you want.
We thought it'd be cool to get a picture of Roman with a Roman soldier... He didn't.

You can go into the Visitor's Center & see the Christus statue and a lot of other really beautiful things! They have short videos you can watch & this year they set up a room with cool backdrops where you can go in & have a professional picture taken with some of the cast.
So go down & check it out! The grounds are beautiful & it's a wonderful message!

Temple grounds= BEAUTIFUL

While we were waiting fo rthe pageant to start, we walked around the temple grounds to let Roman burn off some energy & took some fun pictures. It's not hard to capture some of the beauty when you're there.

"SURPRISE!"

Yesterday was my 26th birthday. My family REALLY pulled it off this year & threw me an AWESOME surprise party!! I, honestly, had ZERO clue what was going on... We were in Show Low for Shauna's wedding & drove down yesterday afternoon. Once we got home, I rushed into the house (thinking I only had 15 minutes to get ready for our dinner reservation) & was greated by a screaming mob of 23+ of my favorite people!! Oh, & an added bonus, my sister that's living in TX, Gwen, & her family were in the crowd (HOW did they keep that secret from me???). The women in my family came over, cleaned my house (Sorry again Michele, but THANK YOU!), decorated, made the best tasting burrito's, & totally pulled off the FUNNEST party- I was completely surprised & felt SO special! So, how could an already awesome party get any better?? By me opeing up my very own, shiney & new, Canon Rebel xSi digital camera (with all the accessories & 2 extra lenses)!! I almost peed my pants & did cry a little! After I opened it, I couldn't put it down- I LOVE THIS CAMERA!!Here are some snap shots I took of some of the craziness known as my party:I really had the BEST birthday ever- so many surprises & people I love! My mother told me earlier in the day to look for a present from my Heavenly Father- my family is it! Thank you all for making me feel so important & special! I love you all VERY much!!

Random Snapshots that I Love

I love watching him explore his world...
& I love watching him sleep!
I love his grin,
His full lips, & big blue eyes!!
I just love HIM!
PS- And, I'd LOVE a new camera that could actually take GOOD pictures... sorry they're so pixilated- if that's a word :)

White Trash picture of the week

After I was finished getting ready this morning, I came into the kitchen to find this...You may be asking yourself, "But where did he get an already open, 1/2 empty can of cherry pie filling?" Where else, but the disturbed garbage can you see in the background... gross! I have no idea where or how he got the spoon... (& don't you just love the snot nose... adds to the white trashiness). I clean the little stinker up & not even 5 minutes later, I hear him making this mess... ahhh, you gotta love little boys!
PS- Is it totally wrong that instead of cleaning him & the mess up immediately upon discovering it, I search the house for my camera so I can capture his mischievousness??
