This morning Shawn joined !10,000! other people at the Deal or No Deal casting call in SLC. He was number 2720 in line and that was approximately 8:40 am. They were seeing all the people that got into line by 1:00pm. the line went !FOREVER! You had 20 seconds to say what you wanted them to hear. He didn't get "held up" for a second or third interview so he'll just chock it up to a fun experience!
So..... I got a new pair of shoes!
Really, you don't know what a big deal that is! Really!Big! Deal! I just don't buy shoes... hardly ever! I was thinking what shoes I bought last year, a pair of $12 wedge flip flops and a pair of slides (only because I met up with my good friend CLEARANCE SALE and they were $13... not that cute... just cheap!). So, I haven't had a pair of athletic shoes for like 3 years now. Right after I had Noah I went walking and came home with blisters on my toes (the foot growing thing with each pregnancy is true) and so I threw them away. Yes, I have walked since then, I just wore crocs. Not great for the feet I know... So now we have passes to our recreation center and my friend and I want to go use the track and exercise machines so that means I needed a decent pair of shoes. So, I rarely shop anymore! (GASP! ....I KNOW!!!) But last week Kohl's opened right by our house and so Shawn MADE me go buy a pair of shoes! They feel AMAZING!!!
I have made the cutest little mini books with these. I made all the YW a little quote book for their birthday gift, and I made a little mini book of President Hinckley's quotes for each of my Laurels shortly after he passed away. Really cute! So the other day Cade was asking me if I knew where this little tiny notebook of his was and of course it could be one of a million places. I told him I could make him a really cool book though. So with 3 sheets of copy paper cut 2x2.5 and some chipboard for the cover I made him a very cute, tiny (just how he wanted it) and may I just say better book than the one he was looking for. (he was impressed) It was for SPELLS you know! And that is his tomagotchi he has drawn on the cover. How cute is that!
I saw this quote on a plaque last night."Make time for the quite moments because God whispers and the world is loud."
So true!

good for Shawn for trying out! Good for you for buying those good shoes (But I LOVE Crocs too!!) Crocs or Clarks brand shoes are about all I wear! And thanks for showing off that little gadget - I hadn't seen one before!
Love the palm tree! Reminds me of our room!
oh ya - love the quote about Families!
