BOMBS AWAY

She looks so innocent... don't be fooled. I think she is proud of herself! This is probably the fourth or fifth time this has happened to Jeff, and finally I got it on camera. He was playing with Cheyenne, holding her in the air above his head (one sure way to get a smile, and sometimes a laugh out of her). When without any warning she spit up all over him! I was sitting right next to him and when it happened I gasped. I ran to get something to clean it up with and then we both started to laugh. I asked him if I could please get a picture of it, which he wasn't too excited about because then he had to sit there longer with spit-up on his face! But we got the picture and cleaned up the mess:)
I decided to run 16 miles tomorrow... I am dreading it. We will see tomorrow if I actually do it.
We go to Washington in two and a half weeks, yay:)
Here is another picture of Cheyenne playing with her giant stuffed doggy. She loves it!

Dana said...: One day not long ago, I was holding Hannah up in the air over me and the same thing happened to me too! I actually got some spit up in my mouth, though. It was pretty gross. It's nice being back online! We look forward to seeing you guys soon! :); June 7, 2009 at 11:03 PM

Our Testimony

Jeff and I are both members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and we wanted to share how grateful we are for that blessing. We believe the Book of Mormon and the Bible are the word of God and we learn so much as we read from them. We know that families can be together forever, even after death, if we choose to make that covenant with God in his holy temple. We believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God and was led by God to restore the truth on the earth. He went through so much persecution and dedicated his life so that we could have the Gospel of Christ today. We also believe President Monson to be our prophet today, we believe he communicates with God and leads us to live good lives so we can return to live with our father in heaven once again. The more we pray, read the scriptures, and learn about the gospel, the more we feel the holy spirit in our lives. As we do these things we can see our lives and our marriage being blessed and our happiness increased. We know we have made so many mistakes in each of our lives respectively and we are so amazed that our savior Jesus Christ can help us to be forgiven for those things. We love the joy and happiness that the gospel of christ brings us everyday. Jeff even dedicated two years of his life to sharing that truth because he believes in it so much and wanted to bring other people that happiness. I am so thankful that he made that sacrifice because I can see the blessings that came from it. We are not posting this to try to force our views on anyone, we just wanted to let everyone know how thankful we are for the Lord's blessings and for his guidance in our lives. We have also been so blessed with amazing family and friends to give us support and love along our way. Thank you being there for us and thank you for letting us share our love of Christ and our testimony of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
