The Millar Memoir: Tuck!
http://camijaymillar.blogspot.com/2015/03/tuck.html
Thursday, March 26, 2015. The big news lately is that Jason has been accepted to both Cornell and Dartmouth for Business School! We'll most likely choose Tuck (Dartmouth), and we're thrilled and excited! Most of all, its nice to have a plan for the next two years. I've been frantically looking up housing, schools, and the closest Joann Fabrics, as well as hitting up all the clearance racks for discounted winter gear. Goodness knows we're in for some cooooold weather! I'll keep trying to catch it on camera.

The Millar Memoir: Lobster Bisque
http://camijaymillar.blogspot.com/2015/03/lobster-bisque.html
Tuesday, March 24, 2015. In celebration of the new little lady in J's life, he set out to make us Lobster Bisque (cue the Studio C remarks) and found it was cheapest to buy the live lobsters so we had two cute little pets in our fridge for a day before they became soup. It was absolutely delicious, by the way. Brightly showing off her cute new red ruffled bloomers:. And here's a fun Chocolate Surprise Easter Eggs. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). From the Blue Chair. Dear Mr. Gable.

The Millar Memoir: July 2014
http://camijaymillar.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 14, 2014. We're going to see how a "family of 5" looks on us. We're due Jan. 19th, and as excited as ever! I'm just getting out of the morning sickness stage, which has been gross, but manageable. I'm just so happy to be feeling normal again. The boys have been great to bring me blankets and toast when I'm keeled over on the couch. I have a huge belly already, and we're really excited about some cute names we actually agree on! Thursday, July 3, 2014. Does it feel like we're always moving?

Monday, March 30, 2015. A Beautiful Blessing Day! Brighton's Blessing Day was as perfect as could be! What a little princess! Controlling the massiveness of her dress reminded me of wearing the larger version. So much fluff! We got our first family picture taken of all five (! We had just the right amount of family in town with my dad, Marc and Diana, and Braden visiting for an MIT trip. How I love my little girl! Thursday, March 26, 2015. Miss B is charming us all with her cute smiles! Cinderella, along...

Peace and Not So Quiet at the Smith House. Let there be peace on earth. Monday, December 24, 2012. T'was the day before Christmas and all thru the house, all the creatures were stirring, I hope there are no mice, or. a mouse. I think we are ready.

LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN: APRIL 1-5, 2015 -- DALIAN
http://learningtodanceintherain12.blogspot.com/2015/05/april-1-5-2015-dalian.html
LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN. There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS. IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN.". With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must. Learn how to "dance in the rain.". We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives. They exist daily - we just need to make sure we do not miss them! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

The Ellingsons: January 2013
http://ellingsonstory.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 21, 2013. 2013 - Let's Party! My dad has a favorite quote that has become one of my favorites. When I was in high school and college I used to keep a copy of it hanging in my closet. I feel like it has explained the Ellingson's 2012 year perfectly. Here it is. Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming 'WOW What a Ride! The Merril...

The Ellingsons: August 2013
http://ellingsonstory.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 20, 2013. I'm not afraid of hard work! I learned an important lesson last week, or maybe more like 2 or 3. Sometimes being a mom is HARD. I think I have had my eyes opened to the true love a mother has for her children. It is infinite and when your children are in pain, you too are in pain and would do absolutely anything to make it better. I also learned that when possible, a family is best when there is a mother and father. I am so grateful for the priesthood. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
