Ice Skating

I know these are super-duper late, but I thought better late than never. Mom and Dad's ward had an ice skating activity at the Ice Sheet, and here are som pictures...

Casey put Benson in the front pack and skated with him.

Here is the Dalpias Family.
Oh Jannie.Greg doing a spin or something.
A good time was had by all.

April 19th Craft Night

Okay well I'm in charge of craft night this month so this is what I have decided to make this month with permissions from most of you. I need to know how many of these you would like to make. And I need to know if you would like the hearts on the sides of the flowers. I plan on cutting them all out how they are in the picture but you will have to sand them and make them your own. Let me know asap so that I can start cutting them out.


We will have Craft Night April 19th at 6:00 or so.

Missing Dano

Well as most of you know, Danny left the MTC yesterday and flew to Costa Rica. While he was at the airport he called home and I talked to him for probably 2 or 3 minutes. He seems happy (although his last meal at the MTC was burritos and beans & rice and he said he was hungry.)
I have this little penguin toy sitting by our family picture on my nightstand because the last night we hung out together with Danny, Shanna, Andy, McKenzie, Nick, and Tami we went to Warrens and the penguin toy was in my kids meal. I have had it on my nightstand ever since and it reminds me of Danny.

Because...

I know it's late (really late) and you probably thought I wasn't going to remember you, but never fear. Puking babies can't stop me from wishing my sister a Happy Birthday!!

Because it's your birthday I decided to list a few of the reasons I love you...

Because you have big, big muscles...

Because you "love big bugs and you can not lie..."

Because you don't get mad at me when I forget to take a VERY important picture of you putting your token in the slot. (P.S. they don't use tokens on the subway anymore!!)

Because you kind of look like me...

Because sometimes you just can't make up your mind...

Because you would NEVER play favorites!

Because you appreciate a good nap...

Because you're a great sister and an amazing friend...

And because you're just so darn cute!

Happy Birthday to my sister and one of my very best friends!
I love you Tami!
Love, Em

Happy Birthday, to my Mom!

Mom,

I just wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday.

You're one of the most amazing people I know and I feel lucky and blessed that you are my mother! I think that the older I get the more I appreciate you. You're an incredible example to me. I am so grateful that you are not only my mom, but also one of my very best friends! You are so sweet and kind. I love that you are always thinking of people and trying to help them. I've always tried to emulate that about you. I'm sure that I could type a novel here about how much you mean to me. I hope you know... I think, more than anything, you are the kind of mother I want to be to my children.

Thank you for always being there for me to talk, cry, and laugh with me. Thank you for all the millions of socks you folded and bottoms you wiped. For the times you rocked me (even when I was much bigger than you). Thank you for all the meals you made (even the ones I complained about) and for all the nights you stayed up sewing, cleaning, and worrying.

I love you more than I can say... thank you for not only being the best mom, but for being MY mom! Happy Birthday, Jannie, I love you!

Love, Em
