The New (and improved?) Me: July 2013
http://darkfire.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
The New (and improved? Thursday, July 25, 2013. I just love this boy. He is so sweet! And of course, every mom says it, but I can't believe he's already 4! First we went out to lunch, and David got to pick his favorite place. He really wanted strawberry pancakes from Skyline Inn, even though his big sister kept trying to talk him into McDonalds. David loved his cake that Daddy found for him. It is a construction scene, complete with giant pieces of chocolate cake for dirt and rocks. Back Up and Running.

The New (and improved? Friday, April 29, 2011. Sorry, I have no pictures of her yet. But rest assured she is cute. There are some on my dad's blog. Was all I managed to say. The doctor and nurse both looked a little stunned, but the doctor said he would come back and check in a half hour. He respectfully stayed away until I was ready to push, probably because they can see the results of the monitoring from the hallway. Thursday, April 14, 2011. Last Call for Name Suggestions. We are expecting a little gi...

Olsen Refuge: Central Point weekend
http://olsenrefuge.blogspot.com/2011/05/central-point-weekend.html
Close-up views of Neil and Pam's sometimes wild family in their native habitat. Tuesday, May 24, 2011. Esther was in charge of the annual LDS youth formal dance. Pam and I got to go as chaperones. Earlier in the day, while trying in vain to outsprint her back to the house, Gideon and the strolled went into the rose bush. Esther gave a great talk in church that I wanted to share:. That brings up another great question. How are we supposed to know when the spirit is talking to us? Eldon and Janeil Olsen.

Olsen Refuge: July 2010
http://olsenrefuge.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Close-up views of Neil and Pam's sometimes wild family in their native habitat. Friday, July 23, 2010. I really like fruit. I love food in general, especially good, wholesome food but fruit has a special place in my heart. Summer is a beautiful season because then I get to dive into watermelons, eat blueberries by the handful and have fingers perpetually stained purple from blackberries. It's a beautiful thing. So guess what I found when I got home from work the other day:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

It was raining as we unpacked at the trailhead, and the kids surprised my by unflinchiningly heading down the trail ahead of me while I got Gideon bundled up and loaded. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Close-up views of Neil and Pam's sometimes wild family in their native habitat. Sunday, June 27, 2010. 17 miles from nowhere, a deer jumped right in front of the car as Pam and the kids were headed to Pocatello for a regional CAR conference. The 2 pronged buck was not so lucky- he was taken by the sheriff to the local Indian reservation. Kudos to the Dodges for use of their van and treating our problem as if it were theirs. Sunday, June 13, 2010. I took the kids on a little side-spur to Frey lake, and Za...

Close-up views of Neil and Pam's sometimes wild family in their native habitat. Sunday, June 19, 2011. I was honored to share the program today at church with my son Zachary. He talked about the Duty to God program. I have great parents, but they can be pretty direct at times. My mom read over this talk, then asked what if anytihng I wanted people to get from it. I'd like you to come away from this with a desire to pray hard for greater charity. Esther just graduated from Crater and is going to BYU in a ...

The New (and improved? Thursday, September 29, 2011. It's the Final Countdown! I think it will be a learning experience and a good opportunity to increase his language skills. Sometimes it can be hard to get people to converse with you in German here! At the start of fall term, it was asked for a show of hands who was married. Out of about 110 students, only Jeff raised his hand. A bit awkward, but at least people know not to hit on my husband now! Even so, fall term has been different so far. There ...

The New (and improved? Wednesday, January 28, 2009. A really Poopy morning. I was lying peacefully in my bed, with the cat curled up next to me and birds chirping outside, when I started to hear Ariana. She will entertain herself for quite a while when she wakes up in the morning, content to just play in her crib for the time being. So I lay there for 15 more minutes before finally admitting that I needed to get up. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Cory, Heather, Alyssa and Owen Strasser. Back Up and Running.
