Relief Society

So last week I was asked to teach relief society. The regular 4th Sunday teacher is going to be out of town. (its not a new calling its just a one time thing.. Thank goodness!) But I am really freaking out! I have never in my life taught in relief society and I am sure I will probably be doing it again sometime. I just hoped I would be an old lady by the time that came. I like to teach and loved young womens but I feel like a young chick preaching at a bunch of hens. So, anyone got any advice for me?

Mississippi Flooding

This picture was taken by some SCO friends just a little bit ago. Not much of a park anymore. As you can see all the trees are underwater and its almost into the parking lot of the park which is right next to the road leading to downtown.. YIKES! i hope the school doesn't get flooded!

Mississippi Before

This is a picture of Riverside park before the flooding in 2006 when we moved here:

MY COUSIN IS GRADUATING!

Today I got a graduation announcement from my cousin Lacey. She is graduating next month in nursing. She got an awesome job in Florida at the #5 in the nation hospital for NICU. So she is way excited. I just thought I would share some memories! GREAT JOB "POOH"! Thanks for always being there for me!

GREAT DAY FOR US!

Well,
I just had to post and say today was a great day! Prayers have been answered. The jeep sold. Sad day, but a great day. We really really needed that money so now I am happy! One less stress off my back. The funny thing is we only had one person come and look at it and that person bought it. So we say good buy and pay our thanks: Ode to the jeep! For all the good times, For all the bad times. (when the tire fell off on the interstate and all the times we ran out of gas) and getting us and our uhaul trailor here alive! WE COULDNT HAVE DONE IT WITH OUT YOU! GOODBYE OLD FRIEND...

MOMMY'S LITTLE HELPER

So,
Yesterday Tessa and I were making brownies and I thought I would teach her how to do the eggs. So I held an egg with her as we slightly tapped in against the side of the bowl. Tessa thought that was fun of course and THEN on the third tap, SMASHED IT against the bowl! So as I am trying to dig out massive egg shells from the batter WHEN I saw her stick her tongue out and give her hand a GREAT BIG lick! YEP. A GREAT BIG LICK OF RAW EGG YOKE! YUCK! I about puked all over the floor. We washed her hands right away.. For those of you who don't know. Tessa has been obsessed with putting things in her mouth since she had hand eye coordination. (and yes i have the number for posin control down!) I thought she'd grown out of it, but apparently not yet. Do you think raw eggs are that bad for you?
