I always go with the intent to find something great and of course I walk out of MANY stores with nothing. I begin to try on pants; different brands but the same size and of course they never fit the same. I don't know about you guys but I have the problem where my pants are snug in the thighs and tush and then huge in my waist. That makes it very difficult for me to find any pants that are flattering. I then have the problem of finding shirts; I use to wear a size medium and now I am having a hard time fitting into many large shirts. Now am I getting bigger or are the shirts getting smaller for the size? Well if anyone has any good ideas of wear to shop for pants that won't expand after wearing them for 2 hours and shirts that will actually fit, please let me know.Pattyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07330326209851700132noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5939519336481752492.post-83920257096212910952008-09-08T07:22:00.003-05:002008-09-08T07:43:54.954-05:00finger and face paintingthe other day we were finger painting on the kitchen table and Simon decided that there was more then just the paper that could be his palet.

They have lots of different activities going on such as a band playing in the park, a parade, and Huck Finn Day. For the last two summers Dallon and Zeeli has enjoyed an evening in the park fishing. The city fills up the little creek by our home with about 200 fish and the children spend an hour or so fishing with their poles.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3j5AcvL0I/AAAAAAAAAJE/Ol9rQq17UUs/s1600-h/IMG_1524.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3j5AcvL0I/AAAAAAAAAJE/Ol9rQq17UUs/s200/IMG_1524.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237092510214336322" border="0" /></a>After that hour or so of fishing with the poles, the orange fence comes down and you then can fish with nets. The children go wild (just like the fish I bet) getting in the water with their nets trying to catch fish<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3jvlId-9I/AAAAAAAAAI8/CkQI0nJlG9k/s1600-h/IMG_1530.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3jvlId-9I/AAAAAAAAAI8/CkQI0nJlG9k/s200/IMG_1530.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237092348262742994" border="0" /></a>As you can see Dallon and Zeeli caught a fish. Zeeli was very, very excited.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3jkVw7sVI/AAAAAAAAAI0/8E-8vTQyD1s/s1600-h/IMG_1535.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3jkVw7sVI/AAAAAAAAAI0/8E-8vTQyD1s/s200/IMG_1535.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237092155158933842" border="0" /></a>And now the excitement from Emma Jo. She wanted to touch the fish but was still somewhat hesitant.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3jYl2xsnI/AAAAAAAAAIs/xMww7xW-k6E/s1600-h/IMG_1538.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SK3jYl2xsnI/AAAAAAAAAIs/xMww7xW-k6E/s200/IMG_1538.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237091953319981682" border="0" /></a>It was a lot of fun. That evening they caught 3 fish but only took two home. What happened to the third fish, you might ask, Dallon slyly put it into the bishops son's net because he was sad that he wasn't catching any.

These pictures are from my birthday a couple of weeks ago.

For some reason we seem to be so busy. Here are a couple of things that we have been up to. The girls and I went to Pgh for 2 1/2 weeks and even though we had lots of fun, we are glad to be home. Emma Jo seemed to have a very difficult time in Pgh, it might have been the change in scenery or the fact that dad wasn't around or maybe all of the above. Since we have been back we have been busy with bridal showers, baby showers, weddings, cousins going through the temple, etc. For July 4th we attended a rodeo with Dallon's aunt and we all loved it. Zeeli's favorite was watching the princess's ride on horses. Dallon's favorite was the bull riding. Emma Jo's favorite was the magnificent fireworks and mine was "Miss Universe" who was the comic relief of the rodeo. Tiffany Holmes (Dallon's cousin) who is 12, visited with us for almost a week. Having guest always seems to drain me. Dallon took the GRE again and was much more pleased with the results. Besides that things are just moving along. Emma Jo has officially started walking and I gave Zeeli a hair cut, she loves it and I love not having to deal with the constant knots. Well here are some pictures from the events.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SH_-wWmp6uI/AAAAAAAAAH8/LK9eJEt_lyY/s1600-h/IMG_1315.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SH_-wWmp6uI/AAAAAAAAAH8/LK9eJEt_lyY/s200/IMG_1315.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5224174199427951330" border="0" /></a>Emma Jo and Zeeli playing on the couch.

I have yet to find out if I will be able to transfer to Boyce Campus this summer which starts on the 19th. I don't think it is going to happen, but it will be nice to have the summer off. The important thing is that I made it through 101 alive and happy.

We loved it. It is such a beautiful area with lots of fun hiking. Dallon got off work Thur and Fri so we could have a nice long weekend. We rented a little cabin in a little town outside of the park called Torrey. The first night I was definitely glad that we had a cabin since the temperature went below freezing and the cabin had some heating. We went on 3 hikes that were about 2 1/2 - 3 1/2 miles each. Zeeli loved hiking and did a remarkable job for being so little. Emma Jo enjoyed being carried on our backs. It was a lot of fun so we just wanted to share a couple of pictures. We love you all.<br /><table class="Dva3x"><tbody><tr><td><b><br /></b></td></tr></tbody></table><table class="Dva3x"><tbody><tr><td class="kVqJFe"><span id="1eu4"><a target="_blank" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=2cdef3b1ce&realattid=f_ffzhcfi61&attid=0.2&disp=inline&view=att&th=119c8ea6ef7ea763"><img class="tFroq" src="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=2cdef3b1ce&realattid=f_ffzhcfi61&attid=0.2&disp=thd&view=att&th=119c8ea6ef7ea763" /></a></span></td><td><b><br /></b></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><span id="1etm"><a target="_blank" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=2cdef3b1ce&realattid=f_ffzhcxmi2&attid=0.3&disp=inline&view=att&th=119c8ea6ef7ea763"><img class="tFroq" src="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=2cdef3b1ce&realattid=f_ffzhcxmi2&attid=0.3&disp=thd&view=att&th=119c8ea6ef7ea763" /></a><br /><br /></span><a target="_blank" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=2cdef3b1ce&realattid=f_ffzhcxmi2&attid=0.3&disp=inline&view=att&th=119c8ea6ef7ea763"><span id="1ete"></span><span id="1ete"></span></a><a target="_blank" href="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=2cdef3b1ce&realattid=f_ffzhbvpx0&attid=0.1&disp=inline&view=att&th=119c8ea6ef7ea763"><img class="tFroq" src="http://mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=2cdef3b1ce&realattid=f_ffzhbvpx0&attid=0.1&disp=thd&view=att&th=119c8ea6ef7ea763" /></a>Pattyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07330326209851700132noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5939519336481752492.post-81489827471047135122008-04-27T19:30:00.003-05:002008-04-27T19:37:28.189-05:00Well here are a few pictures of us while we were going on an evening walk to the park. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SBUb5DFsGSI/AAAAAAAAAFE/iQ6mWnzE7x0/s1600-h/IMG_0386.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SBUb5DFsGSI/AAAAAAAAAFE/iQ6mWnzE7x0/s200/IMG_0386.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194088412137396514" border="0" /></a>Zeeli wanted to walk her baby just like mommy.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SBUboTFsGRI/AAAAAAAAAE8/owBMYOLSlCk/s1600-h/IMG_0393.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SBUboTFsGRI/AAAAAAAAAE8/owBMYOLSlCk/s200/IMG_0393.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194088124374587666" border="0" /></a>Here is daddy and Emma Jo all ready for the little walk.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SBUbZzFsGQI/AAAAAAAAAE0/fgCI_0IbaRI/s1600-h/IMG_0383.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_4PlXYVA-u5c/SBUbZzFsGQI/AAAAAAAAAE0/fgCI_0IbaRI/s200/IMG_0383.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5194087875266484482" border="0" /></a>Pattyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07330326209851700132noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5939519336481752492.post-49112351049279372512008-04-27T13:00:00.002-05:002008-04-27T13:08:09.183-05:00The Abbotts are In<a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_M1qnVTGTp-Q/SBTA8tQk1wI/AAAAAAAAADo/xWWQCr6k5_c/s1600-h/IMG_0278.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5193988419438827266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_M1qnVTGTp-Q/SBTA8tQk1wI/AAAAAAAAADo/xWWQCr6k5_c/s320/IMG_0278.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Hey Everyone.</div><br /><div>Erika is a genius.
