Day 22- Cold Tangerines. It took me a while to read this book, but it is a must read. It's about the amazing things we find in our every day lives, if we look for them. It's inspiring and you can really relate to the writer, Shauna Niequist. She also wrote a book called, "Bittersweet" that follows this one. If you are looking for a great book recommendation, this is it. Oh, and she talks about delicious food all the time so it may make you hungry. Just warning you.
Day 23- Pizza Dough Hands. This is what I call Jason's hands. They are amazing. My back or feet or something is always hurting and his massages are the best. We figure its from kneading pizza dough all day. I joined Do Terra a while back and their essential oils are the very best. It is so therapeutic. One of my favorite oil blends is called "Deep Blue" and it smells wonderful and really relaxes me. Lavender also works great on restless kids at night. If you are interested in any essential oils you can link to my site from the blog or just talk to me. I love you Pizza Dough Hands!
Day 24- Just Relax. I felt like I needed some soothing music to listen to and so I got these today. I'm excited about the Healing Meditation one. They are all good so far. Music is powerful and I need all the help I can get to heal and relax.
Day 25- Grandpa. My dad is the best. My parents added time to their trip back from St. George to come visit us. We had dinner and then as always, Grandpa loves to play with the kids. He is always so much fun! I love the look on Aaron's face as Grandpa tosses him in the air. It is priceless. Thanks for being such awesome Grandparents! We love you guys!!!
Day 26- Temple with Friends. It's been a while since I've been to the temple and we got this trip put together at the last minute. It was so nice to be there. It was emotional for me and I made all the old ladies cry because 2 out of 3 asked when my baby was due and I had to tell them that it's not a baby at all. I wish I could figure out how to get the swelling to go down in my tummy. It is worrisome. We ate lunch in the cafeteria and had a great time. I am so blessed to have such amazing friends!
Day 27- Potato. We ate these huge baked potatoes for dinner and Davin started eating his like an apple. (gross) It was pretty funny. I've noticed the boys appetites are increasing quite a bit. It surprises me what they can eat at a meal. I think this is nothing compared to how they will be when they hit their teen years. Watch out!! I love Nathan's face mimicking Davin taking a bite. So funny!
Day 28- Spring Break? Well, it is officially spring. You wouldn't know it by the snow storm that came through last night. I guess it doesn't last long this time of year though. I hope I can keep these boys busy the entire week. We plan on going to Grandma's for part of it and hitting an indoor pool and aquarium just to break up the week. The boys love to jump on the trampoline and it gets out some much needed energy. Love Nathan's face on this one too. What a character. Hopefully we get some SUNSHINE soon. We are all so ready for spring.

Yes...we are ready for spring! I love what you are doing on your blog. I never get to talk to you, but it keeps me up on how you are doing, and what you are doing. We always pray for you!
I love all that you put on your blog! It also keeps ME caught up! I am trying to do the same thing, but I think your posts are so much more clever. Love YOU!
Amberly- I'm just catching up on blogs. I love to read your posts. I love the picture of your son eating the potato like an apple. Cute, cute kids! I hope you're feeling ok. You're constantly in my thoughts and prayers!
Amberly- I hope you dont mind I have done a little blog stalking to find your blog :) I am married to one of Bruce and Sally Anderson sons Josh. I know we have never met, but I have to tell you that having heard about your story from Josh's family, you have been on my mind ever since we left Utah for Jeff's funeral. And its with a strong impression from the spirit that I just wanted to write you this quick note and say that I am thinking of you and your sweet family, I have never personally been up close to anyone with cancer until being there with Jeff for his last week of life and it just saddens me so much to see cancer hit so many people these days. My heart breaks for your family (as it does Jeff's) and I have to keep reminding myself that this is somehow all part of the plan and that this life is such a short moment on earth and just a beginning to the eternities where we will see our families again. I am praying for you all!
With love,
Jennifer Anderson
