Howdy!! Long time........Life just keeps happening and I keep trying to catch up...so let's recap..
My sweet little Sadie is growing up way way to fast...she turned ten last month..Sheesh..I feel so old.
Chris and I lost our minds and took her and 5 friends ice skating and then out to eat.
I really hope she remembers this when she is 16 and well you know what I mean....
Valentine's bought us lots of love and Chocolate.... and a new CAR....Chris got a Honda pilot. It looks just like the pic below...and I am kinda jealous.... I like driving it and feeling like I can run people over..I am nice huh?? it is the first time I have owned a big car....but alas me and my little Mazda are still going strong..:)
And Sadie placed 3rd in the county corn bread contest. Ok....This one is a true Bingham moment...see a month or so into the school year Sadie comes home and says Mom, I got voted in as Vice-president in this organization....which one I asked...to which Sadie replied....oh it is something about the number 4 and a H..?? I laughed out loud and said....you mean, 4-h? Yep, that is it...she said and was very determined to be a model 4-h member. This is from a kid who hates bugs, dirt and most animals..but alas she loves to bake so she found her mecca.
I did not....I totally forgot about the competition and so on the day of.....about an hour before it began she remembers it and throws together the ingredients..bakes it and takes off with her very annoyed father to submit her entry. She had to write the recipe on the back of a receipt b/c they left it here and well she actually placed!!!! So if you need some bake goods....Sadie lady is the queen :)
Chris was pumped b/c got asked to be the ring side Doc at an AMA fight.....he had always wanted to go to one and well he got to go free and got paid...and to top it off he now has some very cool stories to tell. His ring side pic.
.
This has been my motto lately :) got the pic via pinterest...can not find the source but whoever did it is my long lost twin.
See I got called as the Relief Society president at my church...big gulp....yep that is right. So naturally I have been eating large amounts of chocolate :) But really I am so very honored and so very humbled by the call. I have been overwhelmed by the presence of the Holy Spirit and how much the Lord is helping me. My testimony is strong that this call was inspired and now I just have to have Faith that I can do this. I have two very amazing ladies to work with and a great bishop. I am so very grateful for the support that I am constantly receiving. So when you are saying your prayers..if you could just pop my name in there..I would owe you big time :)
Wy guy is all boy (aka always covered in dirt) with a hint of flare...he can wrest, kick and throw with the best of them but turn on the music and the kid has some serious moves...any advice out there?? he can pick out harmonies, sing along with most songs and has great rhythm...Chris and I have zero musical talent so I think I need help.. His favorite things are the swing and dirt outside, a purple headband..(ha ha) his sock monkeys and muse zack..as he says it. Oh and anything he can throw.
Ana is great as well. Doing great in school and is still all about the crafts.........She has paper, markers and glue sticks hidden all over her room. I guess she is worried about a shortage and well she has her stock pile.
I am still working out every day...and I realize you can be really fit but still not small...Errr...I am proud that I am in good cardiovascular shape but I really wish my body fat would get the memo and hit the road. Oh well..I have a rockin husband and cute kids :) it makes it all better!!!!
