Happy Birthday

Amy Marla Biddulph is 18!
18 fun years with Smileygirl.

Winco

Pretty much the most stressful part of my week is grocery shopping at winco. The store is always jammed packed with people from all walks of life (I actually find that part quite entertaining:)

So after about 45 minutes of up and down isles that are like a maze I head to the cashier. This is where the real stress begins. Just as quick as I unload my groceries on the conveyer belt for the cashier to scan, she puts them on another conveyer belt for me to bag it all up and put back in my cart. I always start the bagging up process really organized with freezer food, canned etc. but after about 3 bags I fall behind and I just start throwing things in the bag. Somewhere in between bagging my groceries I catch my breath and put my debit card in the machine, but not before she rings up the last item.

I guess if this is my biggest stress in life I should be pretty happy:0

Happy New Year!

Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors and let each New Year find you a better person. Benjamin Franklin

Love this quote!

P.s. Jack stayed up later then his daddy:)

Biddulph Family Traditions

Some of our favorites...

1. Cutting down our christmas tree. And yes that is Mike hiding in the back, with an ax looking like he is going to chop down his children.

2. Making ginger bread houses at grandma Moore's. This year we made over 25...maybe I am exaggerating a bit but it sure seemed like a lot?)

3. Shopping at target with the family to buy each others christmas gifts.

4. 12 days of christmas to 3 lucky neighbors.

5. Christmas eve program. Last year Carson & Emily were lucky enough to be (Mary & Joseph)

6. This year we are adding to our tradition list a fondue/hot tub night.

7. Decorating the tree with all the kids ornaments they get each year and the ones they have made. Our tree this year is my favorite.

I love traditions!

Pure Perfection!

My Best Friend

I am so thankful for the love that has been shown to me and my family this past week! Thank you for the fasting, prayers, service, food, texts, phone calls, help with Emily and Carson, yard work and thoughts that came my families way. I love the holy ghost The minute I found Mike I had this overwhelming feeling come over me of what to do and to stay calm! I did have my hysterical crying episodes during the week but it was just mainly of the gratitude I have for my Heavenly Father & Savior and love I have for my dear husband and the thought that I almost lost him. I love the gospel and everything it means to me. That is the only way I was able to get through this week. I will never let a day go by without a prayer of thanksgiving that I have my best friend still by my side! And telling and showing Mike that I love him!

Jack Welcoming his grandpa home!
