Flaming Gorge Lunker...

Had a family reunion with the Memmott side at Flaming Gorge this past weekend. We had a great time being together and having fun on the water! With a couple of boats, lots of tries at the wakeboard and kneeboard (no not me), fishing and tubing! What a great vacation, also found out Ledger wants to be a fish in his second life! Couldn't keep him away. Thank you Memmott Clan for a fun time! Our turn to plan next years if anyone has any great ideas for a family of 25?! Burley here we come...1/2 hour drive for the Idahoans!!!

New Uppercase Living Catalog...

The new 2010-2011 Vinyl catalog is here! This one is amazing, such fun things to decorate your home with! Including fun new sizes of the photo prints. Dry Erase Vinyl??? who would of thought. It is filled with some great ideas. They have added four new colors to their 55 color selection. Call me or let me know if you would like a free copy!

Girls Camp Fun...

Our new leader DOTS t-shirts

Leader hug!

I am having camp withdrawls. We were on a spiritual high for four days. The devotionals were all about courage and standing up for what you beleive. There were lots of fun memories...popcorn mountain skit, bracelet craft, chicken dinner instead of hot dogs, miamaids sceeming pranks, and the best of all getting to be friends with the girls instead of just a leader!!!Can't wait to go again next year, Thank you mom for coming so I could go.

Missing U!

I have an addiction to my blackberry...three days ago it had a white screen and apparently couldn't be fixed. So a new one is on its way (a week later) of course without any of my contacts or pictures...gotta love sprint! Life without texting has been unbearable and miserable, just to even say hi to friends and family! I joined the texting world only a few months ago and now addicted. Hurry blackberry so I can find some normalcy!

Girls Camp Preprations...

Starburst belt we are making for our craft day: we have saved 560 tootsie roll and starburst wrappers for each girl to be able to make a belt to wear at camp. (cute and easy craft)

Secret Ward gift: our ward had to give a gift to three different wards, instead of secret sisters (being stake camp this year). We are giving a stack of twenty 12X12 papers rolled up with a disposable camera, brads and a package of tags for embelishments, with a note that says Scrapbooking items to keep the camp memories alive...Love the 12th ward Young Women!

I wanted to give the leaders all a gift from me, so I found these darling chunky bead bracelets with the value colors from Seagull Book, I wrapped in celephane and on the back were the memory books that I made for the girls too!

Dots is our theme for this years stake camp which stands for

Depending on the Savior

I am giving one to each girl inside a bag with their memory book facing the other direction.

Memory book: I loved how this turned out, I wanted to do something for each girl for camp. I found these 4X6 photo albums at walmart for a dollar, came home and scrapbooked the front and back with matching papers with our theme printed on cardstock. Added a cute ribbon down the middle to make it look like a book, for them to put all camp memoribilia inside! Behind the book are the DOTS treat.

We leave next Tues. and I am sooooo excited to get to go! Hope all will be well at home...

Pedicure Princesses and a tired Prince!

FYI: don't take an 18 month old to get your pedicure...it may kill you

Hallie Bear getting her first pedicure! Started too early...she wants one once a week!


Chelsie is Richard's girlfriend who is my brother, who came from Arizona to visit. Jen is Matt's wife, my youngest brother who lives here. We decided we wanted our feet done for Twin Falls memories, it was great fun except for one thing...the little prince that tagged along to this princess party!!!

Skateland...last day of school

Papa with Hallie at skateland...she asked me if I would call and invite him because "Skateland is his favorite place"
Hallie and her friend Garrett (one of many boy FRIENDS)

the rollerbade queen!

Ryker and Ledger came with me, Ryker was sad to just have to watch and not get to skate. Last day of school is bittersweet for me...I can't wait to not have to get Hallie up everyday at 7:15, we get to sleep in! But keeping three kids entertained enough to not be fighting may be the achievment of the summer!

Memorial Weekend

Fun weekend in Utah...Hogle Zoo was the favorite.

Happy 13 Years...

Look how far we've come! I am the luckiest girl alive to have such an awesome husband. A man who is very kind, loving, easy going, patient and a hard worker! I can't beleive it has been thirteen years...thank you Shane for putting up with my weaknesses, I hope we get to celebrate 100 more! I love you...Liss

Vinyl Photos:

Here are the pictures I put up down my hall way of the kids on vinyl

(2 foot by 2 foot each photo)

No frame or glass, sticks right to the wall and is removable (photos only).
Add a quote and you have a masterpiece that doesn't look like the rest of the house...matted and framed!

BTW: These are from Uppercase living and I should of taken the opportunity to point that out since it is my stay at home business...feel free to go to the website or let me know and I will get you a catalog full of ideas! https://melissamemmott.uppercaseliving.net

(The photos for 24X24 were only 30.00 each which is quite a bit cheaper than going the canvas route, that I looked into.)
