I am 40!!

My sweet husband threw me a party to celebrate.

My wonderful friends showing their love.














All right. The party went a little crazy.





Thank you to all of you who shared and sent memories ( Mom & Dad, Becky w/a y and SNAFU). I felt very loved. It was a fun night.

The Princess Quiz

I have finally taken the Princess Quiz.


You Are Mulan!

Strong and spirited. You're no one's girly girl; actually you are very determined person with a strong sense of self. Never let go of that! The only thing that equals your sense of self is your family, but the traditions of society can always be bent to protect something or someone you love.

Go figure.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

A Family Wedding

CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!! MIKEY IS MARRIED!! My baby brother is now a husband. This happened on October 17th, at the Salt Lake Temple. Almost all of the Haroldsen family was there. It was wonderful to be together. There were cousins galore. The following are a few pictures from that day.

My family all dressed in wedding colors at the temple.

The Haroldsen family dance party!!!




We had a great time. Family is the best.

You know you are getting old when . . .

. . . your prom dress, that you looked all over to find, is now a costume at a 80's retro dance. I guess that I just have to face it. The large shoulder pads and criss-crossing lace will not be coming back.

Plus, Cassidy looks better in it than I did.

Pictures of the first day of school.

Here are the first day of school pictures of my girls. I tried to create a slide show, and just couldn't do it. I would love to have any advice you could send me.


Hannah - first grade


Kait - 3rd grade


Maddie - 8th grade


Cassidy - 10 grade

My other daughters Lindsey and Willow

First Day of School

My children are back in school. I now have all my girls at school full time. Everyone keeps asking me what I am going to
do with all of my free time. I haven't had any yet, so I can't tell them.

Hannah loves first grade. She comes home laughing about the funny things her teacher does and all the fun that she has at recess.

Kait is happy to be in 3rd grade. She was excited to discover that a friend of hers, that she thought was going to move, didn't and is in her class.

Maddie is excited to be the oldest group at school. She is excited to be in Theater and Concert Choir.

Cassidy is feeling a little overwhelmed. She has a tough semester with both Advanced Chemistry and Pre-IB English. She will have to work and study, but she will do well.

I hope you are having a great beginning school year.

Sunday Night fun at Grandma's.

What more can I say. We have fun.
