172nd Ward Reunion

Just a quick note to my fellow BYU 172nd ward members that there is a reunion at my house on Saturday March 15 at 5:00. My address is 1555 S 30 E in Payson, hope to see you all there!!!

MTC

Well, yesterday I had the pleasure of taking my parents to the MTC where they will be for the next week and a half before leaving on their mission for Tokyo! We are so excited for them and for the people in my family who want to know, we have started a blog for them! It is hartzellline.bloggspot.com for those of you who want to keep up with their adventures! We will admit, we are jealous and would love to be able to go and visit them, but we have no dinero (or should I sayYen)! We wish them all the luck and Love in the world and know that they will have a wonderful time!

SKYPE

Okay, skype is an online chat/video conferencing thingy where you can actually talk to people, or IM them as well as talk with your camera on. I know, this is nothing totally new or anything, but I just acquired an internet camera thingy and I am excited to talk to people with it. If you don't have a camera, that is all good, we can still just talk if you have a microphone and speakers! It is rather like a phone call, but the sound quality isn't nearly as good and there are no annoying long distance charges! This is how I intend to converse with my parents and have them see the kids while they are on their mission. At any rate, I just signed up on it as gingerbubbles, so anyone who wants to chat with me, just add me to your contacts and we will chat!

Dragon Cake!!!

Shawn and I spent probably 5 or so hours making this "japanese" dragon for my parents mission farewell that was today, so I thought I would share some pictures of it!!!

Just some cute pictures I had to put on

The kids were having fun playing in the snow the other day, so I took this picture. The one of Abby was just too cute, we aren't the cowboy type, but how cute is she in that hat?!!!

Fun times in February

Okay, I thought it was time I did some catching up, so here goes.
We got a ton of snow dumped on us on Valentines day, so I thought I would post a picture of me with my five foot high drift that I created while shoveling off our driveway.







Then we we went to the Children's museum in Salt Lake on Saturday and had a blast . . . as you can clearly see here!

I finally found my cameras!!!

Sorry it has been so long since I posted, but yesterday I finally found my cameras (I hate moving), so now I have some pictures to share! These were actually taken a little while ago of the kids, but I thought it was time to put some on anyways, and I needed to put up some better ones of my dog! So, here they are, in all of their glory!!!

Happy RRT Day!!!!

Today is the official launch of Shawn's web comic- Rocket Family Road Trip- just go to www.rocketroadtrip.com and you can see it. There is only one or two up right now- they have a dozen or so, but they aren't done yet, so really there isn't too much to see yet, but keep your eyes open- there is some great stuff going on!!!! We hope you all enjoy it- I am so proud of Shawn for doing it!!!
