My Wednesday Knitting Group

I need to confess something, something that has been nagging at me for sometime now. It has to do with work so I apologize if that bores anyone. My manager, Sheri, has expressed distaste for her previous boss who happened to be LDS. I never met him but all I hear is crap, so because of that I've never told anyone at work that I too am LDS. Side story to that is that I taught Sheri how to knit and told her how I go to this knitting group every Wednesday and how it has been theriputic for me because all we do is knit and complain about the world and our problems. This group also happens to be an enrichment group from church and we don't talk about what "normal" LDS women talk about.
So I invited Sheri to this knitting group not thinking about it and then realized that I don't know if I want her to come to this thing. A - we don't talk about wholesome things all the time. In fact hardly ever do we, it's mostly about crappy stuff that has happened in our lives. B- we have some people that are not ashamed and wouldn't care that they were speaking to my boss. (I happen to like Sheri and I don't want things to get weird.) C- It would be weird "hanging out" with my boss. I know this is all lame excuses, but I would have to live with this everyday. I am at work more than I am at home. So I'm praying that if she does come, that she will get past her reservations for "Mormons" and actually come for the opportunity to complain about life and make a pretty scarf too.

Kourtney's Baptism

My beautiful niece, Kourtney, got baptized on the 6th of September!!!! I just wanted to share some pictures and also to say congratulations to her for reaching an important milestone in her life. I'm so thankful I was able to witness it, and what a great blessing she is in my life. Congrats Kourt!!!!

When I saw Koltun sporting his new green shirt I couldn't resist... He is so handsome!!!!




















Here's a shot of Kimberly getting her hair done before we left for Kourtney's baptism. If you look closely you can see her new favorite shoes, the black version of Dorothy's shoes from the wizard of oz. She's dang cute!!

















And here's Kolin!! He's sooo cute in his little sweater vest!! He's a fun little guy and I can't wait until he grows up so I can get to know him better! Kolin was given his baby blessing the same day Kourtney got baptized. It was really neat to be able to be there.




Again congrats Kourtney and Kolin on your big day!!!
