Stake Conference.

*** I wrote this post about a week ago, but finally was able to get the pics of the camera... so enjoy!

This past weekend we had Stake Conference (a large church meeting for several congregations in the area).
Before the Saturday night session we went Applebees and watched some members of the Princeton stake cheer a little too enthusiastically for BYU. The high fives? Come on guys, too much too much. We were happy to get to see some of the game, however.

Both sessions of conference were focused on the family and home. It was a great lesson for me to realize my responsibility in making this new place a home for Paul and I. We are really starting to like this place.

Sunday's session was also great, and I decided to take notes. However, to keep my focus (really, this works for me), I drew some pictures too.
Thought you might enjoy some spiritual inspiration, as well as our innate fashion sense, haha.

Compare to our actual "looks" here.

 Seriously, couldn't he be a JCrew model?

 Me... not so much.

Person of The Week: Amari

There are so many people in this world that I love. They mold, they influence, they help. I want to try to recognize these people more so you can see what a lucky world I live in.

The only hard thing about this will be not making Paul the Person of the Week every week. He deserves some real credit for making my birthday the best ever- and I can't wait to show you all the pictures from the Poconos- but today, is about Mar-mar. 

 

She is my niece. I think I get her because she's stubborn, like I can be. 

The reason she deserves some special attention is because she called me and sang Happy Birthday to me in the sweetest little girl way. It made me get all teared up. :) It was awesome. 

She lets me do mohawks in her hair too. Haha.

 I think she ate that whole box of Cheez-Its. Haha

She likes to be in charge (I know how that feels too). 

She loves kitties. Actually, she is a kitty in her mind.

See you in December Mar!

Due Date.

Today is my due date... meaning the day my mom was "supposed" to have me. The day she had to tell people over and over again... I'm due Oct 18th....

Too bad! I was 1/2 an hour late!

Love ya mama! I hope this scrunchy baby was worth the wait!!!

Fierce Frandsens!

Today I discovered these pictures on Camie's facebook, from our August '10 Frandsen reunion.
Shirts- designed by Zander.
Don't you wish your family was fierce like us?

I so wish that I could have that Amari sitting on my lap now! I'm guessing little Will (on Paul's lap) misses his Paul too- he called him Dad the whole week, haha.
