3 Cheers for my NEW ROOF!

I think you can say that I am a little more than ecstatic about my new roof.  

A big, huge THANK YOU goes out to everyone who took time away from their family to help us out.  This means so much to both of us that we would have such great friends and neighbors who would give of their time and talents to help us out.

I still LOVE my new roof.

I can sleep better this winter knowing my roof will not be leaking on us.

A few of the things I've learned about myself

• The gospel is so important to me
• I like my sleep
• I LOVE showering, but HATE actually getting ready
• I don't really like eating breakfast, but I know should
• I will miss not having young children
• I love my family
• I really like to check my e-mail
• facebook can be a real big waste of time, but I do enjoy it -- maybe too much
• I really look forward to Fridays
• I may complain a lot, but my life is relatively easy
• I can find a hundred things I would rather do instead of the things I should be doing
• Blogging can be addicting
• I am so glad I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
• Listening to good music makes me much happier
• Watching my kids perform in sports or dance is a complete joy
• My calling in church is one of the hardest and best things that has happened to me in a long time
• Good friends = Good times
• I feel much better about myself when I get something accomplished that is worth while

Our Playlist

Last night, Jeff and I had way too much fun picking out songs for our play list.  Whoa, talk about reminiscing!!!  There are stories behind many of the songs.  Such as -- "The Streak", no, that is not the story of my life, but it was a record (yes, I really did just say that, we had records when I was young! I guess I am dating myself slightly)  my family had growing up and we would play it over and over and over and over (our poor parents.)  We thought it was the funniest song ever.  Some of the other songs were from us dating and Jeff even sang one of the songs to me at our Wedding Dinner, the night before we got married (he's going to kill me for saying that.)  Love remains will always be a special song in the Kendall Family, a lot of touching memories with that one.  Others are some of our kids favorites.  Plus, we cannot overlook the fact that Jeff had a really weird taste in music before we met.  I am glad I saved the day there.  With American Idol being our favorite show at the moment, we picked out a few of our highlights from seasons past, gotta love that show.  Anyway, we hope you enjoy some of our taste in music.
