Scrapbooking Desk!!!

We've been up to Bakersfield a couple weekends this month because my Dad and Marc have been working on a project....making a scrapbooking desk for me!!! I can't even tell you how exciting this is to me. In our old apt. all my scrapbooking stuff was just stacked in a messy pile in the corner of our family room...but since our new place is a little more roomy, we decided to build a desk that sits next to our other one (that my dad & Marc actually built a couple years ago) so I could organize all my scrapbooking stuff into it. My Dad is an AWESOME carpenter and has quite a nice workshop in the garage...and Marc really wants to learn how to do that stuff...so it was a great project for them. Marc learned a lot and they both had fun...and it turned out so nice.
Now I've got the job of painting it...so I'll post pics of it once I do that...

My ward baby shower

My old ward (as of a few weeks ago) threw me a baby shower on Dec. 5th. It was so much fun. Since I have been in Young Womens with my calling the entire time I was in that ward (3 1/2 years), the Young Women President, leaders and the girls wanted to throw it for me. It was at the Young Women's President's house...and the Young Women planned and ran the games and everything. It was awesome...Between all the young women and people from the ward, we had a full house...it was definitely a fun party. And I got some really cute stuff for my baby boy:) Here are just a few of the pics:

This is me with Rebecca, the young womens president
With some of the girls...I can't tell you how much I'm going to miss them!!!
With my friend Katie, who actually got called into young womens just a few months ago...and I was so excited--but then it turned out we had to move....she did a lot in helping to plan the shower

Blog page fixed!

Okay, I can't even tell you how happy I am right now. I messed up my blog somehow a couple of weeks ago...and have been trying to fix it ever since. I accidentally upgraded to a new kind of blogger template and wasn't able to view my page elements or anything. Seriously, I was so bummed cuz I thought I'd just have to delete this blog and start a new one. I FINALLY figured out how to fix it and so I am back in the blogging world! I'm just telling you this in case any of you run into this problem. Just ask me and I can tell you what to do. Now I can post again. Woohoo!
