Awesome quote

I found this quote tweeted out by the Mormon Channel.  Just wanted to share it.

USU homecoming parade

Kiley got to walk in the USU homecoming parade on Saturday. She wore her devil costume that she will be wearing for her performance in October.  She had so much fun walking and dancing her way down Main Street.  Here are some pictures of the cutes devil ever!  She has the devil scowl down great!

 

Update: well used blanket

The rainbow blanket that we have had since Isaac was a baby is still having a slow and painful death.  The hole is humongous now.  Connor still loves it and can't put it out of its misery.  We find pieces of it all over the house as it slowly falls apart.  He still manages to cover himself with the small strip that he can stretch over him.  Here are a couple of updated pictures.

Teaching moments

Tonight Kiley was doing the dishes and Connor was getting ready to eat some tasty ramen noodles.  Kiley was telling Connor about what she had learned in Primary today.  She told him that they learned about doing baptisms for the dead.  She said that you need to do your family history so you can find the people in your family that didn't have the opportunity to be baptized while they were living.  She said that when you turn 12 you get to go to the Temple and get baptized for the people who have died.  She said that the spirits of the people are there with you watching you get baptized for them.  Connor asked if you could see the spirit and Kiley said no, but you could feel them there.  He said that that was so beautiful and that he felt so happy.  I went in and told him that the overwhelming happiness that he was feeling was the Holy Ghost testifying to him that everything that Kiley had told him was true.  He said it was so beautiful again.  He told us that Sunday is now his favorite day.  He also said that he wants to be a missionary when he gets old enough.  He is so excited about the gospel.  I know he will be ready to get baptized in a few months.

Selfies

The kids love to take random pictures of things on their iPods.  They are connected to my account so I see the awesome pictures they take.  I found these beautiful pictures Kiley did of herself and put them into a collage.  Here are her beautiful pictures.

Funny kid conversation

Connor: "I'm going to die twice."

Isaac: "Why are you going to die twice?"

Connor: "Because I'm going to become a zombie and somebody will have to come after me."
