Christmas 2010


















Christmas this year was really fun. Grandma and Grandpa Campbell stopped by on the way to Idaho. Cheryl was excited and loves to see them. Nathan read from the scriptures and we watched A Christmas Story and ate cookies. We wrapped presents that night and put together the step stool too. We had homemade hot chocolate and pancakes for breakfast. Then the fun began...we opened the gifts! It was so great to see Cheryl enjoy getting presents now. June was asleep while we let Cheryl open her first gift. The Jesse doll from Toy Story, she loved it so much that she just wanted to play with that and she still wants Jesse with her wherever she goes. It's so cute. We decided to get ready and go out for lunch and then play in the snow. We went to McDonald's for lunch(what a treat, Cheryl loved the play place) and the girls fell asleep on the way to the snow...so we kept driving around and just went home. We didn't get back in time to eat our ham dinner so we decided to go to a Chinese Restaurant like A Christmas Story movie. And I have to say we will never do that again. Nathan and I got really sick the next few days. Luckily Cheryl didn't get sick. All in all we had a super great Christmas. Thanks to all that gave us gifts and cards. We hope all of you had a great Christmas too.

No Excuses

June's Cooking Show! June always wants to cook and has been begging me to film her cooking. I had a million excuses, but I decided that June didn't care that she was in her jammies. She didn't care that the kitchen had bad lighting. She didn't even care what she made. She just wanted to have her mom film a video of her cooking in the kitchen (like she loves to do with me). So, with my IPhone in hand and all those excuses that I created I threw them out the window and decided to STEP UP and be the mom she wants and needs. We made the first video in 2017 and she loved it so much. We got busy and made more excuses. June didn't give up though. She wanted to do another video. So, on a school night I wanted to make banana bread and decided that we are already making it, so I might as well let June make it and film it. June loves to cook and watching her video's. I love her so much and I want her to do the things that she loves to do, so, I will continue to not ma...

Homemade

I am always trying to find ways to save money wherever I can. So, I decided to make some homemade laundry detergent. While I was visiting my parents in California I went to a Relief Society Birthday Party in there ward and that is where I got the great idea of making laundry detergent. I tried a couple loads from the sample I got and it was great...just like Tide. So, I made a huge batch. And it was super easy too. It calls for: 1 bar Fels-Naptha bar soap 2 cups 20 Mule Team Borax 2 cups Arm & Hammer washing soda You just grate the soap, like you would cheese. Mix all ingredients together and store in an airtight container. You only use 2 Tbsp. per load. (tsp. for HE washers) Everything was very inexpensive and much less than I would spend on regular Laundry detergent. I just wanted to share my money saving idea. XOXO-Erin

Does anyone have a trank gun!

Sometimes I feel like a toddler, discovering my belly button for the first time. My belly button is so unrecognizable now. The only problem I am finding about being pregnant is all the body changes. I mean, weight! Being thin for 28 years then ballooning up in a matter of months has really scared me. I know, I know, everyone says that I will loose it all very quickly, but I still don't like it. At church I looked down at my feet and ankles and realized that I no longer have any ankles...they have morphed into cankles...Yuk! I was so discussed that I almost threw up. I wish I was one of those women who don't gain hardly anything and don't really look like they are pregnant until they give birth. Okay, enough of poor me! It's not hard to remind myself that I am pregnant though...I can't go an hour without her kicking me. There is life in there...I am so happy whenever I can feel her. I am happy really easily...just give me chips or ice cream and I am fine. Which isn...
