Color Quiz

I took the same color quiz that PMB took only the results were mostly inaccurate except for this:

My Problem:
Greatly impressed by the unique, by originality, and by individuals of outstanding characteristics. Tries to emulate the characteristics she admires and to display originality in her own personality.

Is that really a problem?

Good News, Bad News

So I know I promised some exciting news today, but you'll just have to wait. It turns out the girl at my Doctor's office wrote down the wrong day on my appointment reminder card - so my ultrasound was actually supposed to be Tuesday. Since I was planning it for today, I missed it. But - I was able to reschedule for Monday, so only a few more days of mystery.

Any magical remedies for heartburn besides drinking mylanta by the glass and snacking on tums all day?

Doctor's Appointment, then Ultrasound

I had an appointment today with my midwife and almost past out in her office; my blood pressure was so low. Guess I need to eat more sugar in the morning. Coke for breakfast anyone? Other than that - everything went well.

My ultrasound appointment is next week when we find out the gender of the baby. Boy? Girl? Maybe one of each. Any guesses? For anyone willing to take a guess... if you are correct - maybe I'll share a little something with you.

Adventures in Heber City

This past week, C and I traveled to Heber City, Utah to spend some time with my family. My parents will be leaving in less than 2 weeks on a 3 year adventure to Southern Chile. My father will be serving as Mission President for our church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. My mother will be his constant companion and no doubt, bring some excitement to the missionary work. We are so happy and excited for them to be doing the Lord's work and for setting such great examples for us of humility and sacrifice. We are so grateful for them.

While we were in Utah, we were able to be present when my parents were set apart by Elder L. Tom Perry of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles and Elder Lawrence E. Corbridge, member of the First Quorum of Seventy and a new member of the Chile Area Presidency.

This is a picture of my family along with Elder Perry and Elder Corbridge.


Here are my parents with my nieces: Emmy, Katie, and Alison (at Temple Square in SLC)


This is my brother Aaron and his wife, Annika with their 2 girls: Emmy and Alison


Of course, here is C and I in our own picture at Temple Square with the baby bump


And then my sister Darin with her husband, Mike and little Katie with another little girl coming next month


It really was a wonderful weekend and I am so grateful we had that time to spend together as a family. We are planning a trip to Chile possibly next December and are looking forward to it already.
