14 January 2008

I really like this blog thing. This is actually the second attempt to write this today! The power kept flickering all afternoon and then finally went out for about 1 1/2 hours this evening. I think I will try and keep a journal this way and see what happens.My new favorite kitchen toy is the bosch mixer my sister sent. I used it to make a triple batch of pizza dough tonight. (Before the power went out.) It had mixed up the dough to the consistency I wanted in less than a minute! I was shocked. That is seriously one powerful mixer. I didn't get my bread done today like I was planning - so tomorrow I will be doing that.

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
