It is Family Karaoke Night.
I love these people!
Why would I ever move out and miss nights like these!
Listening to them is making my homework time much more enjoyable!
I love you family!

summer smiles
June is here and I couldn't be more excited!
My family and I ran away for Memorial Day weekend and spent 3 glorious days laughing, swimming, and relaxing in the sun.
I of course spent too much time in the sun and am now paying the price, but I don't really regret it.
We did a little shopping and I bought 4 new shirts as a reward for some recent weight loss. Trying on shirts with completely fried shoulders and arms wasn't very pleasant but so worth it. We did some exploring and came across this in one hotel lobby. My dad insisted on getting my picture but of coarse I didn't mind a bit. I love this! If I could I would do this to my room.
We stopped by the Las Vegas Temple on our way back home. If it wasn't 106 degrees outside we might have got out and walked around the temple for a little bit.
Summer has officially arrived and I can't wait to start doing summer things! Reese is officially on-call for fire fighting which has me nervous, anxious and excited all at once. We have tentatively planned our the first hike of the summer with Natalie and Ethan for this weekend to continue our Tertin' adventures from last summer. They are my favorite!
I heart summer!

Where to start....
-I have been pretty crafty lately, completed a few projects and are half way through with a few more...
-For starters, I made this sign for my Dad. I love this saying and have adopted is as a personal motto. My Dad got me a special gift that went along with this saying so it means a lot to me. I made this for him to take to work to use for his team meetings where he has introduced the motto also. There is an excellent story that goes with it.
-I have been waiting to finally sit down and experiment with making little baby shoes. After a few trial patterns, Laura had the perfect one and I am a little proud of this little pair for Miss Finley Mae. I sure hope she likes them. More shoes made with cute fabric are on their way.
-Sunday was Mother's Day which means I could finally give my Mommy the quilt I have been working on for a while, with Reese's mom, Laura's help. I was so excited to find the fabric and make my first quilt. My Mom loved it and with her new sewing machine she got for Mother's day, us girls will be starting on our own quilt soon.
-Sunday was also very special because we finally got to hear the heart beat of the first Mortensen grand baby. My brother Brandon and his wife are expecting a baby in November, and I couldn't be more excited. They are going to be the cutest parents! We have been waiting for this baby for some time and are so happy that it is on it's way! He/She will be so spoiled and I am totally okay with that. Baby quilts will soon be in the making here, along with those baby shoes.
-This is my second week of my summer class, Technology in Education. I really like it so far and am excited to understand how to do things on the computer. Going to school only twice a week for a couple hours is so much better than every day, all day.
-I have also been picking up more hours at work, which is excellent because I am dirt poor. I have been trained on new things and I am enjoying the new learning experiences along with higher pay.
-Went to the dentist today, No Cavities! That deserves a celebration!
-I am quite excited for this weekend to come so I can finish up a few more projects and add some more items to my room.
-I have been feeling so good lately. Happier, healthier and grateful-ier(new word?). Life is fabulous.
