"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will -- to your surprise -- miss them profoundly."

--Thomas S. Monson, 2009

Catch-Up!!!

So we have had an extremely busy last few months here, and I have unfortunately neglected this poor blog. I have just added a few posts of the past few months to catch up. We have recently moved to Calgary! It has been a big move and change for us, but so far we are loving it here. We miss a lot of things about Edmonton, but we love a lot of things here too. I am getting more and more anxious and ready to have this baby. I saw the doctor just today, but he said I will probably not have the baby for a while yet. *sigh* I will just have to be patient, she will come when she comes right?

We had a busy weekend around here. Saturday was our big Mossey Family Reunion here in Calgary and Sunday was my Grandma Herget's 85th birthday celebration down in Magrath. Both were wonderful days spent with family, some of whom I have not seen in years. Both days were extremely hot, which was a little uncomfortable for me, but it was still fun. Isabelle unfortunately got heat stroke on one of the days as she was playing so hard in the hot sun. But nevertheless, it was still great fun. Here are a few pictures of the weekend:

(PS I have figured out how to put the comments back on, it only took me like 8 months! SO feel free to leave comments! Its the only way I know this blog is being read!!!!!)
