"In our search to obtain relief from the stresses of life, may we earnestly seek ways to simplify our lives. May we comply with the inspired counsel and direction the Lord has given us in the great plan of happiness. May we be worthy to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost and follow the guidance of the Spirit as we navigate this mortal journey. May we prepare ourselves to accomplish the ultimate purpose of this mortal test- to return and live with our Heavenly Father."

blackberries, mud and hair...oh my!


Chad recently found a patch of blackberries on one of his go-kart expeditions, so this afternoon we thought it would be fun to go as a family and pick some fresh blackberries. Carly had fun picking and eating them!

It rained pretty much all day on Saturday but cleared by early evening so I decided to let Carly go outside and have fun in the mud and she did! She was out there for quite a while just running from mud puddle to mud puddle.

Here is a before and after picture of my hair. It ended up a little shorter than what I would've liked but my hair grows fairly quick and it is so easy to do that I can't complain too much! (Not sure why my after picture turned out so white but you get the idea)

Yay for the cuteness! I'm so jealous. I wish I looked good with short hair. That way Andy would stop pestering me to cut it short because it already would be. I have no idea why he doesn't believe me when I say that it will just make my round face even rounder!
