dallas at work

Dallas Jay has been busy at work helping his dad! If Ace has a tool Dallas has a tool. It's good to see he has a good work ethic already! Hopefully it continues on into his teenage years. Not to much to report here in Pocatello. We are excited for my parents to move into their beautiful new home. I think they are too! Ace is working hard on his MBA and will only have 3 classes left after this semester! We are so excited. I am keeping busy at work. Dallas has started going to play group with Grandma Bailey and loves playing with the kids. He also loves nursery too, which is nice for us to be able to enjoy church. Poppa Ward loves to take him out to ride in the tractor. The last time he took Dallas out, Dallas Jay fell asleep! Nanna has been teaching him how to lasso and winnie and wyatt and scooby are not enjoying this new trick, but it's pretty cute. Winnie (our lab/ border collie mix) and Dallas Jay are attached at the hip and the other day I caught them both peeking through the fence watching our neighbor work in her yard. I guess the apple never falls far from the tree, because when Jesse and I were little and we lived in Blackfoot we would peek on the people that rented the basement from our parents, so what can I say! Dallas has learned the alphabet, but we are still working on the potty training thing. I hate it and truthfully so does he, so we just mostly talk about it and he tells me no he does not want to be a big boy and sit on the potty. I can't blame him I guess.

I don't know about you, but I loved conference. I loved the talk where Elder Haight talked about how Heavenly Father had created a symphony and loved every instrument in the symphony, not just the piccolos. It's good to know that there is love for those of us who march a little to their own drummer, such as me. I also thought Elder Bednars talk about active prayer was a wonderful refresher. It's so easy, at least for me, to get into a routine and remove the thought process. If you didn't get to hear the talks you can go to lds.org and read them. That's all that's new at the call house for now. Btyl (blog to you later)!
