Happy Monday everyone! What a super weekend! It was busy and fun and just so lovely! On Saturday I went to the temple with Mike and a few of our friends, IT WAS WONDERFUL! Emma spoke in church on Sunday and did just the most amazing job! She spoke about prayer and I was so impressed with her testimony and her knowledge and fait about prayer. I was so, so proud of her! Emma is 14 now and just growing up to be an amazing young woman. It is pretty neat to see!
I am still struggling with the pictures! SO SORRY! Please be patient and understanding! I worked on it for a few hours Friday and Saturday, I will yet again today! Until then I have something I would love for you to do!
I want to do a question and answer section! SO ask me anything! Ask about having babies or parenting things, things about me, things about cooking, things you want me to show more, crafts, holiday traditions, anything and everything! I want to hear from you! If you want it to be anonymous that is great too! Just put that in your comments and I won’t mention your name! So ask away! I really, really would love to hear what you guys think and want to know!
Have a super huge wonderful day!
oh and say a little prayer I figure out the pictures!
Smile Book!
Emmas talk, so proud of her!
Mikey went on a scout overnight campout, the leader said he was the best behaved! Yay!
Sledding over the weekend! So fun!
Dinner at my moms, best lasagna ever! I just love going home, something so wonderful about it!
Grateful, so grateful I live close to my family…. makes my heart happy

what are your tips for having such well behaved kids?
If you get frustrated with the kids, what are your methods to not yell at them if you want to?
what fun things do the kids do when they are not in school?
your skin is always glowing, what kind of facial cleanser do you use?
how often do you shop for groceries?
LaraM says
I love these questions! I am going to do a post on this! As for the facial cleanser, I have Mary Kay, or the Wal-Mart brand of makeup wipes. But quite honestly most nights, I end up grabbing a wet wipe and using that! Isn’t that funny~ But true! I shop for groceries once a week. It is a really big one every two weeks and then a smaller one the opposite week. I would love to share that menu with you!

what kinds of treats do you do for the kids at night?
what types of things do you do on family night?
LaraM says
I am so excited you asked this question! I will be sharing the answers to this in an upcoming blog post! We do lots of family things, like play games, learn a little lesson about a good value we should have, learn a scripture story! I can not wait to share! Thank you so much for asking~
Hugs,
Lara

what does your quiet time consist of?
LaraM says
HI Christine!
Quiet time for us is from 12:30pm-2:30pm. It is after lunch, the kids play for about ten minutes after lunch and then it is quiet time. During quiet time, they lay in their rooms, they can read quietly or color. The little ones fall are put to bed, and fall asleep. The older ones, it is a time to relax and have some time to just calm down. I usually clean up during quiet time! I think it works really well for us!
Hugs,
Lara
