We should not underestimate or overlook the power of the Lord’s tender mercies. The simpleness, the sweetness, and the constancy of the tender mercies of the Lord will do much to fortify and protect us in the troubled times in which we do now and will yet live. When words cannot provide the solace we need or express the joy we feel, when it is simply futile to attempt to explain that which is unexplainable, when logic and reason cannot yield adequate understanding about the injustices and inequities of life, when mortal experience and evaluation are insufficient to produce a desired outcome, and when it seems that perhaps we are so totally alone, truly we are blessed by the tender mercies of the Lord and made mighty even unto the power of deliverance (see 1 Ne. 1:20).
-Elder David A. BednarOf the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles

The Sucker Theif

The other day (notice he still has his cast on so this was really like a month and a half ago) Gideon found a sucker and not wanting me or maybe his sisters to take it away he decided he needed to hide out behind the chair to eat it. Little did he know then that I wouldn't have taken it away but after a few minutes of not being able to get the plastic off he had to come out of hiding and risk asking for mom's help anyway.

Lagoon

For Christmas Grandma and Grandpa Belly Pie gave everyone a ticket to Lagoon. The day in June we planned to use it ended up a little soggy but we still had a lot of fun. To bad my mom doesn't like to give the same gift two years in a row because we could handle doing this again.

I didn't get a ton of pictures, so there are a lot of people missing from these pictures. Sorry, I don't even think ShiAnne is in them guess if you wanted to be in the pictures you need to spend more time in kiddie land or something.
I say lets do it again next summer!

Dance

From January to the beginning of June the girls were in dance and they finished off with their dance experience with a recital. They both did great and look so cute!

Thanks to their Grandparents and Micah, Amber and Tage for coming and supporting them.

After the concert they were very excited (no stage fright here) and it was decided that lots and lots of pictures needed to be taken
I would like to add special recognition to Aunt Phylicia who was also at the dance concert and I forgot to mention. So from are whole family we would like to thank you Phylicia for coming and joining in the fun with us.

Calender

My calender seams to be a little full this month.



So in case there is any activity or event I suppose to be at and miss this month just take note that Gideon decided to schedule himself in.
