Who needs free time anyway?

I was released from my calling and for sure thought that I'd have so much time to do whatever I pleased. After I got over the 'what am I going to do, this is all I've known for two years,' I was okay and a little excited about having all this free time to enjoy Florida for our last few months (sorta, we leave in June and will be back the next January). And I'm not going to lie, I might have gotten a HUGE grin on my face when someone came to me with a problem and I got to point them in the other direction..."Sorry, you'll have to talk to her..." (: (: (:
For about a week I worked on projects I had started but never finished. I was doing okay until this project,
I thought I had this genius idea to make a little double-sided banner. One side says happy halloween and the other happy birthday. It should be a simple project but with all the stopping it took me way longer than it should have. When I finished the project I was so excited it was finally done, I flipped it over and found this...
Seriously! It all made sense in my mind. I was working on each piece individually and didn't think about how it would look after it was stuck together. Really, did I really just do that? Whatever. So I hit a wall, got a job babysitting a 4 month old and there goes all my free time. Other than that, still enjoying the Florida sunshine. I'd say I feel the same about Florida winters as I do for Rexburg summers, they are perfect!

Our sweet little Bree had a birthday on the 7th, yup almost a month ago. I can't believe she is a year already. Seriously that was one action packed year and she just sat quietly by my side for the whole thing. She is an angel, no joke. She never makes a peep, she's laid back and easy going. She's so content she just learned how to crawl last week. She didn't start eating baby food until she was 10 months and now that I give her table food she doesn't stop eating. She's got rolls everywhere, cute chubby cheeks and a bald head.

On another note, last week in church I was trying to keep Kade quiet and contained to our bench. I can't even remember what I did or said but he walked to the end of the bench and loudly says, "don't be sassy to me!" I have a feeling this is only the beginning of our outbursts of ridiculous comments said loud enough for everyone to hear.

That is hilarious. I'm so happy you made that sign. Or should I say yppaH. :) I'm sure it wasn't as funny to you at the time, but I'm laughing pretty hard.

I support Kade. He knows he's the man in charge. He knows he's next in line to run the house and if you restrict that there are going to be some problems. Give Bree a HUGE kiss for me!

Brit your kids are so dang cute. Do you just kiss those cheeks of Bree's all day long? And I love that Kade said that, Saylor does the same thing to us ALL the time and is correcting us all the time too. Where are you guys going in June? Maybe someday in our lives we will be able to come visit you, but who knows if that someday will ever come, but hopefully :)
