Skin Cancer?

Utah's weather always gets my hopes up and I hate it! One day it'll be 85 degrees, the next will be 50. So as you can see, I got fried on one of the hot days. It felt so good to be in the warm sun, it is definitely my comfort zone. Rob is either doing landscaping or selling door-to-door so he's outside all the time. His farmer's tan is so cute! Sunscreen is a must! PS I cut my hair...and I like it. My cousin Rebecca told me that I look like a mom now.

House/Kids Sitting

This couple I occasionally babysit for planned a trip to London. They asked Rob and I to babysit their kids for a week. The fun thing about it is, they are rich!!! They mentioned to us before they left that we have access to everything...first thing that popped into our minds were...their CARS! Today is the first day and it's been going well. Their mom left me an 8 page weekly agenda sheet that I have to abide to. We will be crazy this week taking kids to either dance, soccer, ChuckECheese, whatever it may be. We'll have fun!!

Elder Brother Stapley

On April 2, my family took Brandon to the MTC. I have never taken anyone in before so I didn't know what to expect. We are in this chapel and there are tons of other families. We are dreading for the part when we have to say goodbye. At the time we were all pretty calm, but when that time came...OH MY...we all lost it. I was hyperventilating...even my other little brother, Logan, was crying. It was sad, but we knew it was the best thing Brandon could ever do. It was such an example for Logan to start preparing! I have already written him 6 times, including 2 packages!! He's only been at the MTC for 2 weeks. Last week Rob scootered up to the temple and happened to see Brandon and his companion just hanging out by the fountains. I was so jealous when he told me. Brandon left this morning for the airport. I saw his bus in front of the MTC loading all the luggage. Of course I drove by to see if I could find him, unfortunately I didn't. We are so excited for Brandon and couldn't be more happier. He'll be a wonderful missionary in Spokane!!
