Disneyland!

Brooke here! I gave myself authorship permissions for this blog, so here are some pictures from our (Mom, Jared, Noah, and me) day trip to Disneyland on Thursday! (Mom has her pictures now, she can fill in the rest.)

 Lunch at the French Market

On Mickey's Sunwheel, CA Adventure.

 Maybe my new favorite picture!

Oh yeah, we went on the swinging gondola.

Morning Musings

It's 6:30 am. So far today, I have made 3 omelettes, 2 pb&j's, 2 dozen muffins, emptied the dishwasher, loaded the dishwasher, kissed hubby goodbye, sent 2 boys off to seminary, read 3 blogs, checked email, and typed this. What's left for the rest of the day? More breakfast and lunch making, more sending kids off to school with hugs and kisses, more cooking- rice for the teacher appreciation lunch at the high school, and dinner (what to have for dinner?)- exercising, grocery shopping, going to hair appointment, laundry, reading, praying, planting in the garden, picking kids up from school, chauffeuring to music lessons, signing homework, making phone calls, having family dinner, talking about the events of the day, going to church youth activities, reading and praying together as a family, tucking littler ones into bed, hugging bigger ones goodnight, curling up next to my sweetheart, and closing my eyes at the end of the day. Life is beautiful.
