"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

— Marjorie Pay Hinckley

Last Week

Our goings on this week:
 
 
Thaddeus and Madelyn built a fort.  We've been playing a lot inside because it has been cold and yucky outside.
 

 
Ephraim is 1 month old!  He weighs 9lbs 12 oz, 2lbs and 12 oz more than he did at birth!  He has grown and inch in length and in his head circumference.  He is as healthy as a horse!

 
Grant went to check on the kids the other night and found Grace like this.  We figured she was having a dream about a dog licking her face and was trying to stop it :)  (that is a stuffed puppy on her chest)
