Freedom To Protest!

I am very happy to say that we attended a tea party in Fallon on Wednesday the 15th...tax day. It was absolutely freezing and we were not able to stay long but I am glad we went and stood up for what we believe in. I had the kids hold up their sign's but that didn't last long.

Adelia and her kids came with us and it was a good experience. Adelia is my politically active friend. Her and I both went to a city hall meeting where we sat from 5 pm to 11pm on a issue that would directly effect us here in our neighborhood. Yes, it was annoying and long but I am planning on doing it again. I am finally getting the fact that if we want to keep our REPUBLIC strong and alive we need to get out and get active in the community!

I know for some they didn't understand what the tea party's represented that day... a lot in the media are calling those who supported them "radical extremists". I wish that they truly would take the time to understand what middle America is trying to say. I know for me it was about saying no to all the bailouts, no I don't want you to take care of me, no I don't want you to put away our Constitution anymore, no I don't want you taking from me and giving it to the person down the street that is not working!
I love America and I love that we have the freedom to protest and have our voices be heard. I hope that I can teach my boys about what this country was founded on and what our duties are in protecting her.


Sewing 101

These lovely ladies are Summer, Janie and Lindsey. They are wonderful friends. We are here learning to sew. This is an activity through church that Summer put on. I am so thankful for the opportunities to learn and acquire new skills that can bless my family.

Here is Adelia looking like a pro at this.


Morgan did not have fun that morning but the boys sure did running around and playing with the other kids that were there. Here is Reece, Janie's baby. She is 4 months older than Morgan. And we are hoping these two girls will be great friends.

The last few months have been crazy, but good. Morgan is doing wonderful. She is crawling all over the place now (mostly army crawl but does get up on her hands and knees) and is pulling herself up to standing positions very treacherously. This past week she turned 7 months old and slept through the night I'd say about 3 times.
Carson is into everything but is learning so quickly about things around him. He is my little sensitive guy. We have to be careful with him because he is just tender at times. Of course on the flip side of that he is a little hellion too!
