It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas....

Bryce and I decided to go on a date on Saturday.  Payton had to be at a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese's at noon.  So we took her to the party and had lunch at Zupas (I'm an addict). After lunch we decided to do some a little bit of Christmas shopping.  We were on such a roll that we had Corbin come pick Payton up and were able to FINISH (that's right folks, I said finish) our shopping.  I am thrilled.  I am so looking forward to enjoying the holidays without having to shop in the snow and cold.  Here's something else I'm really looking forward to, courtesy of my fabulous husband:

12 Years Ago Today...

Twelve years ago today my life changed forever when I became a mom.  Cameron and I have been through a lot together and I couldn't ask for a better kid.  Here are 12 interesting things you may not know about Cameron:
 1.  Even though we have lived in Utah most of his life, he still claims Idaho as home (love that!)
 2.  He LOVES friends.  He is the most social person I know.
  3.  He does really well in school and gets fabulous grades.
 4.  He is the best big brother in the world.  Payton adores him.
 5.  He plays basketball and football.
 6.  He is a Green Bay Packer fan but also likes the Cowboys.
 7.  His favorite food is Shephard's pie.
 8.  His favorite color is green.
 9.  He is super excited to be out of primary and pass the sacrament.
10. He loves swimming and spends hours at the pool each summer.
11. He  likes fabulous clothes, especially shoes and belts.
12. He is kind and soft hearted, two things I love most about him.

Happy Birthday Cameron.  We love you and are glad that you are part of our family.

Save a Life, Become a Donor

I realize that I have not updated this in a really long time but I finally have something really important to share.  Most of you are aware that my sweet little nephew Vince was born with kidney damage.  You can see a lot of his story at "Our Priceless Moments."  His mom was going to give him one of her kidneys and we recently found out that he has an antibody that will most likely cause him to reject her kidney.  His aunt Shelli was tested and they found the same antibody. 

Vince needs someone to be his hero.  They are looking for a donor between the ages of 18-35 with a blood type of A or O.  The donor needs to be under 5'7" and have a body mass index under 30.  If you fit this description and would like more information, please contact me.
