YES, I am LAME!
I went to see TWILIGHT last weekend with some friends and have become OBSESSIVE all over again. I read the first book over again this week and I read the excerpt from her blog "Midnight Sun". Twilight from Edwards perspective. Soooooo GOOD, by the way! I just finished it, so I will exist now, not just BELLA SWAN!

ONE OF THE BEST MOMENTS OF MY LIFE!
JOHN- "I'm still hungry what can I have to eat?"
LISA-"You can have some toast and jam on that white bread." (Today was bread baking day and we were all out of home made bread. We had a loaf of enriched, white, "glue" bread...... (I call it) because Easton had diarrhea for a few days and we needed some easy to digest stuff.)
JOHN- "Your not going to believe it, but that sounds completely unappetizing!"
LISA- "HALLELUJAH! PRAISE THE LORD!" ( I really shouted that!)
Let me ENLIGHTEN you on the last 5 1/2 years of my marriage. BREAD has been an on-going BATTLE (in the most mild sense of the word). I am a 100% whole wheat bread lover. And think that everything else is blasphemy. John (up until now) was a white bread ONLY kind of guy. We have always had two different loaves of bread, two different kinds of pancakes and waffles and such. But now thanks to white wheat ground fresh for the flour.......we are a 100% WHOLE WHEAT family. I never thought I would see the day! I jumped up and gave him a big hug and kiss!
Thanks Mom and Cara for the recipe and know how!
I LOVE YOU JOHNNY!

A CHRISTMAS HOUSE!
I LOVE decorating my home for this CHRISTMAS season! We started a tradition last year with decorating early. We are always gone for half the month of Dec. visiting family so we don't get to enjoy the SPIRIT of CHRISTMAS in our home for very long. My amazingly talented, crafty, perfect sister in law got the idea for the wreath above from good ole' Martha Stewart. We made them together and it turned out beautiful! I can say that because I copied an idea!
Putting up the tree was fun this year.....with Easton helping. He felt so big. Isaac danced around in my tree skirt, aka: vampire cape! It was HISTERICAL! ( But then it usually is with him).
I got this jar at ROSS for $10 bucks! You heard it! I am just going to switch it out through out the year accordingly! I LOVE IT!
HAPPY DECORATING!

What do you get when you pair up loud, crazy air craft and family fun?
That's right baby NELLIS AIRFORCE BASE AIR SHOW!!!!!!
The Ferrin's are all die hard Air Show fans. John goes every year. This year they came down to join us! It was so fun to be together. I am not sure I am quite the die hard fan. I felt like for five hours I saw the same thing and heard the same obnoxious loud sounds! But the THUNDER BIRDS were worth seeing! It was amazing and actually very patriotic!
John had a booth set up to inform people about the Veterans Clinic at the Dental school. Him and his buddies got a little distracted during the photo shoot. BOYS WILL BE BOYS!
I am so proud of John and all he has done for this! It is ALOT of work!
Papa Ferrin and Austin with Easton.
Exhausted and full of sugar! LOVE IT!
THE END!
( They were just hugging! REALLY love it!)

MY CUP RUNNETH OVER!
I was at the park yesterday watching the boys play and I was FILLED with so much love and amazement for my little boys. Isaac was leading Easton to every slide at the park, yelling "Come on Easton!" Then he would get them all situated sitting next to eachother and put his arm around him and they would go down the slide together. They did this laughing over and over again. I actually started to CRY. It was one of the sweetest moments. I wish I would've had my camera.
Then I got to go to the temple that afternoon all by myself ( it would've been better with John......but alas, school).
I was driving the 40 minutes home in the quiet of my car just thinking about my life and how blessed I am and HOW MUCH I LOVE those boys and their dad.
To top it all of my friend Lindsay invited me over to watch that new Emma Smith movie. Talk about an INSPIRING, AMAZING woman and story. I left wanting to be more faithful and hard working at my part in the PLAN. I love truth and goodness! I want to seek and follow it and work for it all my days!

EASTON MARK FERRIN
This boy is a heart melter! I feel like I will explode everyday because he is talking so much and it is so adoreable! He has such a big mouth, full of gappy teeth and surrounded by such pouty lips. And he heavily pronounces his "ch" sounds with his lips sticking out. I love him more everyday.
To name a few of his sweet talk......
Every time he accomplishes anything he shouts loudly, "I DID IT!" or "I GOT IT!"
He randomly adds the word "too" to everything he says. ie: "I am going to get down too." "I need water too."
He constantly asks, "What doing mommy?"
He always says, " so bad" with alot of feeling. ie: " Mommy, hurry so bad!"
"What's that?" is asked about 500 times a day.
I have had a little cold this week and every time I cough or sniff or blow my nose he asks, " You ok mommy?" in this sweet little high voice.
He plays my own game with me when we are reading a book, he askes me where each object is ( that he already knows the answer to) and then when I point to it he says, " Oh, there it is!" Just like I do to him when I want him to learn colors and animals and such.
To top it all off I just left my post to go put him in bed and I had him down in my arms and rocked him singing "I am a Child of God" and when I was done he said, "I want a big hug Mommy." So I put him up in my arms and hugged him tight and rocked while he preceded to hum the entire song back to me. I could've died and gone to Heaven right then.
