Funny

We were watching General Conference and the Choir was singing. Chuck said to Charlie "Charlie, maybe someday you will sing in the choir." (Charlie has always loved singing and music) He replied "Yea, that would be fun but I will always have to leave rehersal early". Chuck asked "Why?" Charlie's answer was "I will have to go to football practice at BYU." I think he still loves football more! Kids say the funniest things.

1st Off Track Project...Complete!!

My first off track project turned out Teriffic!! Annelise picked the colors and I was a little worried after I actually had the paint mixed at Home Depo. The paint lady raved how she loved the turquoise which made me a little more uneasy seeing how she looked and what her style was (Punk Rocker :). I was actually pleased at the finished project!! All for under $100.00 . I made the bedspread, window seat and curtain yesterday and finished with the polka dots today. Now if Annelise will keep her room clean!

We were proud of Annelise this year in swimming. She lettered as a freshman!

Quote for the week-Helen Keller

I came across this quote by Helen Keller. I have always been facinated by her and her story. These words we should live by:

"I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble."

What is your quote for the week?

John Paul and Larry H. Miller Photo

Today Larry H. Miller passed away. For those of you not from Utah, he is the owner of The Jazz and The Bee's and a lot of other things. He is a well known entrapranurer. Anyway, to get to the point of this...On Deseret News.com there was a slideshow of about 7 photos and Chuck's brother found this photo. If you look closely you can see John Paul in the middle left corner.
In October, Chuck and John Paul had 2nd row seats for the game. John Paul was rather pleased!
