Elder Neal A Maxwell

In looking for a talk to post to the Ward blog; I discovered this one and it just rang true in so many ways. With the Ward blog I hear people tell me what a good job I have done, yet no one is really looking at it, because they keep telling me that they want to add this or that, when it is already on there, the same with the program that I print every week. I had a sweet sister ask me for the Ward blog address, she turned the program over to write it on there, and I opened the program up and showed her that it was printed in pt 15 font and BOLD! oh well. This talk just fit...

Getting Over Feeling Underappreciated

Nightmare

This past week was a complete nightmare for me. While it was a beautiful celebration of mothers and a rite of passage for High School students. I did not enjoy prom or Mother's Day this year. O.K....that's not fair to my family. I did enjoy Sunday... the "actual" Mother's Day, just not the week leading up to it. I work at a flower shop and I make corsages. This year I was the only one to make corsages, with a few exceptions. It made for a very long 3 days. I am soooooo glad it's over. But I did get a few shots of some of them. Enjoy the show:

Happy Mom's Day

I am going to be very busy this week, but I would like to take time now to wish my mother a very happy Mother's Day. She is a very important part of my life and that of my family's. Thank you mom for all that you have done and I know will continue to do. We love you and have a great Mother's Day.

Tom, Jenna & the Girls

Also, my mother-in-law does not like to have her picture posted on the internet, and I respect that, but I would like to also send a shout out to her and let her know that we are also thinking of her and want to thank her for all she has done for us and our girls. Thank you Trish, have a great Mother's Day. We love you and are thinking about you. Tom, Jenna & the Girls.

May Day Dance

May 1st was the May Day dance at school. Emily looked adorable. They did the "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride" from Lilo and Stitch the Movie. They were all so cute. I did her hair in a very loose plaited braid. The wind was horrible, until right after her dance, then it turned out to be a beautiful evening. Isn't she just adorable?

I used a xyron maching to turn paper flowers into stickers to put little flowers into her hair. Pretty but, ouch! :)
