architecture in helsinki - heart it races
this is the strangest most fantastic band i have ever heard. give it time, it sinks in your head deep and unremovable. in a very good way.

howdy churchy readers. i need help.
so, i'm the primary secretary and our presidency's rule is nearing it's end. we are each going to do one sharing time in december and we've decided to stray a bit from the scheduled sharing time plans.
there are some kids in our primary who don't have the most awesome situations at home. so this month we've decided to teach them hope and church is a bright spot in their lives and something they can count on.
so. i NEED a sharing time. HELP! i don't do the sharing time. i take roll! most of them don't even know who i am.
suggestions? who has a great idea???
seriously?
did anyone else watch this?

WHY are you talking on your cell phones in the car and WHY don't you think it's a bad idea?
am i just the lone nerd here? i thought everyone knew it was dangerous, have i been living in a bubble?

old photo friday #1
i have soooo many old photos i thought it might be a good idea to start blogging them, one each week on fridays. how fun and mostly boring for all of you!
today is dedicated to my grandmother's sister bernice. she was great at getting almost everyone, and every part of everyone in the photo.
exhibit one
this one isn't so bad. she almost got everyone, just missed the tops of some heads.
exhibit two
her best. i wish i could see all the hair-dos, but look at those dresses! so cute. seamstresses, time to be inspired.
exhibit three
maybe the other half of the family was the in-laws. my dad is the skinny kid in the middle with the grimace and the awesome hat.
any like these in your family photo album?
soundtrack of my life
i get good blogging ideas (that i never act on) from tiffany and alyssa. since my self-imposed internet fast is over i'm going to finally blog one of alyssa's ideas!
Soundtrack of My Life
Here's how it works:
1. Open your music library
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie
Opening Credits: Hard Headed Woman - Elvis (oh dear this is sooooo on the nose)
First Day Of School: You've Been Flirting Again - Bjork (pfffff- very INaccurate)
Falling In Love: Planet of Sound - The Pixies (one fine day in my odd past)
Fight Song: Everything Counts - Depeche Mode
Breaking Up: King of Kings - Echo and the Bunnymen
Prom: Guess I'm Doing Fine - Beck (ooo, sad prom.)
Life's Ok: Wonder - Natalie Merchant (very good fit)
Mental Breakdown: Shame on You - Indigo Girls (ha! so totally perfect)
Driving: Real Love - David Gray
Flashback: Matthew - John Denver (flashback to kari meeting him in tears!)
Getting Back Together: I Don't Feel Like Dancing - Scissor Sisters (must be a VERY happy getting back together)
Wedding: You Know I Couldn't Last - Morrissey (oooo, bad wedding)
Birth Of A Child: You're the Good Things - Modest Mouse (hmm, seems like a good song but really not. unless the child is evil)
Final Battle: Junco Partner - The Clash (love it!)
Death Scene: Smile - Lily Allen (oh, weird death)
Funeral Song: Friendly Advice - Luna (interesting. anyhow, who doesn't LOVE luna)
End Credits: Send One Your Love - Stevie Wonder

mates of state - my only offer
i absolutely love this song with all of my whole heart.
a tip. but don't steal the ones i want!
hey mamas, good sale coming up on monday. i don't know if anyone has owned a pair of see kai run shoes, but they are awesome and are almost impossible to wear out. the adorableness is a definite bonus.
the mini social is having a sale on monday on all three lines. sale starts at 9am and you may have to get there early. you can create an account in advance to avoid problems.
i have mixed feelings about the mini social. i think they have great products but their prices are not always drop your jaw awesome, but the preview for monday looks like the prices are pretty good. so i'm sharing.
IF you buy a pair do me a solid and enter my email address in the referral field. i get $10 if you buy a pair of shoes. emilymillard at gmail dot com
note: i am not in any way affiliated with the mini social. i am not being paid for this post, nor was i asked to write it. i just like those shoes and the mini social finally had something that i thought was a good price.
i think this is hilarious
hopefully you do too.
when i take photos i take a million and pray at least one works out ok. here's a great example. 7 shots in a row, made in to a hilarious animated gif with a little jig.
enjoy!

my cutest most sane friend...

ok wait. she did tell me. on her blog, but as usual my reading skillz failed me. i totally missed it.
happy halloweenie
this year was the first year i had time to make the kiddles halloween costumes. i think they turned out a little too homemade looking... BUT the boys LOVED them. and that's what matters.
to get the full effect here's a little video...
and a special thank you to erik and lisa, my kids had fun decorating cookies at their house. cade ate an entire bowl of gummy worms. decorating cookies to him meant decorating the same cookie over and over, while eating the used toppings. good grief i love my kids.
elliott did an awesome job decorating mad and happy faces. and the cookies were egg free! thanks to lisa's baking genius.
