My Mister and Me

Our church building is right below the Rexburg Temple. A few weeks ago when we got out of church I looked up at the temple and saw all the gorgeous fall colors on the trees and bushes surrounding the temple. I told Kevin we HAD to go up and take pictures. We went home, changed and headed back up to the temple. We walked all around and I couldn't stop snapping picture after picture of the fall leaves! I decided that fall is my favorite season in Rexburg. It is just SO pretty. Our nice little Sunday stroll definitely helped remind of how blessed we all are to be on this amazing earth that was created for us!  Kevin pointed out this strange plant and was like, "Don't you want a picture of this?" Haha. So naturally I had to snap a quick picture. I love the temple! I am so grateful we live to close to it. Such a blessing!  I'm grateful for days and moments like this where I'm reminded how ble...

A couple weekends ago I went down to Blackfoot so Mom and Dad could help me can some potatoes Kevin and I got from Grandma and Grandpa Jensen and to dry some apples we got as well. Kevin had homework to do so I just went down by myself.  I got down there Friday night and we canned 7 bottles before we went to bed and put in two pans filled with apple slices. It was SO much fun. Being the baby in the family I feel like I got a lot of alone time with parents and I forgot how fun it was so get to have that one on one time with them.  Saturday morning we went to Ivy's baptism. I hadn't been to a baptism in a long time. There was such a sweet spirit there and I am so glad I got to go. After the baptism I went with Mom and helped her at a booth at a fall carnival the school was putting together. I ended up getting to see a good friend that just came home from her mission and got to catch up with her which was wonderful! While Mom and I were at the carni...

Last weekend Kevin and I went down to Provo to spend time with Danny, Melissa, the kids, Shawnii, Mom, and Dad. It was SO much fun when we got there. Getting there was an adventure... We headed down to Blackfoot around 5:30 pm Friday night. We had to take the truck down to Provo because we were hauling a trailer with Melissa's piano in it. We knew it was going to be a long drive since we weren't going to be driving any faster than 55 mph. When we went to pick up the trailer we couldn't get the light wires to hook up properly and the lights on the trailer wouldn't work. We Kevin tried and tried but couldn't get it to work. It was really frustrating. We drove out  to Grandma and Grandpa Jensen's farm so Kevin could use Grandpa's tools. We thought something was wrong with the wiring of the truck. We drove back and forth from the farm to mom and dad Lyman's a couple times. By 11:30 we were both so tired and frustrated we decided we would just figure it o...
