She belongs to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints!!!
March 15th, 2009
Rachel our fabulously beautiful and oh so cuddly friend got baptised a week ago last Sunday! It was one of those days that you look at everyone around you and say,"This has been such a great day!"
Rachel asked Daniel to baptise her, which was such a privilege for him and such a tender moment for me to watch. He has such a pure love for the gospel of Jesus Christ, it means everything to him, which means everything to me.
Rachel was so ready for the waters of baptism. Her countenance was radiating and with every tear that ran down her cheek that day you could feel her knowledge that she is truly a daughter of God become so evident.
Her testimony is so strong. She knows the Book of Mormon is true. She knows the Joseph Smith was a true prophet who saw God the Father and Jesus Christ. She knows that we have a Prophet and Apostles on the earth today that teach us the things that we need to know. The best part about this is she came to the knowledge of these things on her own, with the love and support of her husband and friends.
She will be an amazing member of the Church and I know she will influence many with her special spirit. The things she has been through in her life will make her stronger as she comes to understand that Heavenly Father is aware of her and her struggles and that we have trials in this life to build our character to become the people that He wants us to become so that we can live with Him again someday.Congratulations Rachel!
We love you and we are so proud of you!
Cool Chicks Wear Green Again!!!

The Horse Dance 2009
I couldn't figure out how to upload the video to my blog so you will have to click on this link www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrcNUEEuta4
to watch the good old Horse Dance from this year. The little munchkin running around by us is Blaykli, it was her debut with us and the 13,000+ fans didn't even phase her!! That and the fact that I survived doing it 30 weeks pregnant made it pretty darn fabulous! Plus I'm always looking for excuses to get my sister to Oklahoma!!!
Oh and P.S. Fig was the winner of the t-shirt saying, HOORAY for her!!!
And here is another little ditty that was posted about us:

Valentine's Day 2009
Valentine's Day was a blast this year!!! My anonymous friends and I made so called SCANDALOUS picture books for our husbands which really weren't all that scandalous, I just like saying the word! I'd love to give you all a slight preview for curiosity sake but I'm not going to:)... Daniel was a HUGE fan of the book and I was most impressed by my much needed improvement of the "sexy" face and my anonymous friends photography skills, she is a natural!!
*Ok I lied, here is a glimpse and the difference in my "sexy" face in one years time. Pretty impressive, don't you think? Oh and yes, that is a boa (oh la la)* 
After we gave our books to the hubbies we met up for dinner.

Michele and Glyn

Fig and Dizzle
and the Cheesers! (that should really be our last name)
Hope you had a day full of so called scandalous love too!!! p.s. not all parties shown above were involved in the scandalous stuff, I'll keep that information anonymous!!
Welcome to my week last week...
Yes this is our couch with mounds of clean laundry on it and Eddie on top!
It was a rough one!OKC Thunder Game
Daniel was able to get a suite for a Thunder game down in Oklahoma City a few weeks ago. I was a total slacker on the picture taking but this little beauty is really the only one that is post worthy. I'm pretty sure these Thunder Girls weren't wearing any Thunderware!!!
And I'm pretty sure the guys were totally OK with that!!!Sorry to the wives that were excited for the professional photographers picture of this, I totally lost the card.

I need help...
My creativity is always lacking during the pregnancy months, it's horrible. I need to come up with a cute Cool Chick's Maternity Shirt for boys so that I can wear it at the end of this month when Kristi and I do our yearly "Horse Dance" for the crowd.
The Maternity shirt for girls says, "Hooray! It's a Cool Chick"
with an arrow pointing at the belly.
Whitney gave me some ideas for boys, my favorites were:
"Cool Chicks are gonna dig me"
or
"Cool Chicks Construction Zone"
Leave a comment with an idea of your own or tell me which one of those you like best. I will give a prize to the person who's saying I print and it won't be a maternity shirt (unless your pregnant and you really want one)!

He was interesting...
I ventured into a liquor store today, first time in my 28 year old existence. Having Jaxton home from school that last 3 days because of the ice storm has put me over the edge. Ha! JUST KIDDING, I went in to get some gold tequila for this scrumptious recipe. (Sorry I couldn't wait for you Fig, the craving was killing me)
There was a sign on the door that told me to "Smile, because I was on camera," so I did! Then I walked in and turned a few circles feeling a little bit dizzy and completely overwhelmed.
I didn't even try to find it myself I just went right to the counter...
Me: "Do you have any gold tequila and if so where would it be?"
Counter Guy: looking at me like I just asked a really stupid question, "Right over here, do you need a specific brand?"
Me: "No, it's for cooking purposes."
Counter Guy:"That's what they all say."
Me: "Actually this is my first time in a liquor store."
Counter Guy: "You must be a Baptist."
Me: "Nope, I'm a Mormon actually."
Counter Guy: "Oh, I worked with a Mormon for 6 years, he was.....(long pause)....interesting."
Me: biting my tongue and thinking "What in the crap is that suppose to mean?"
Counter Guy: "My dad was a Baptist minister while I was growing up."
Me: biting my tongue and thinking again: "Well what in the heck are you doing working in a liquor store?"
The joys of Oklahoma tack.
And by the way that Shiz STINKS!!!
