Isn't that nice?

1. I was shopping at the grocery store the other night because I wanted some white beans and they were on sale. Why white beans? First of all, I love Pasta E Faglioli and Second, Vegetarian Chili, and Third I don't have any more recipes so if you have any let me know. I got to the appointed aisle and there were no white beans. I was disappointed and debated if I wanted to go and ask for a rain check, then.....Another guy on the aisle shopping with his little guy--noticed me going through all the cans checking behind other cans and he asked me if I was looking for white beans. I said yes and then he gave me four cans out of his cart. He said we have plenty you can have some of ours. I couldn't believe it. It was so NICE! It made me want to be more nice. I really think we sometimes forget that we are all people and we are all in this together, but it made my day.

2. The next morning I am at my Yoga class. The people in the class are really nice and chatty, so after we were talking about burning calories, etc. I mentioned that I was still breastfeeding. I know are you shocked? I didn't think that I would make it past four months and here we are past a year!!! I sometimes worry if people will think that Isaak is too old, but he's a skinny little guy and he only eats three times a day, so why not? I imagine he will wean himself off around 18 months. But I mentioned it to my Yoga Ladies (can I even call them that?) and they were all impressed and told me what a great job I had done. And they even said that they wished they could have stuck in longer for their kids. Again I felt like I was on cloud nine. They told me that I was great! Who doesn't like to hear that! Well I do, so if you ever want to tell me you think that-go right on ahead.

3. I finally finished Cory's Valentines Present. I made a digital scrapbook of one of our favorite vacations together. It ended up being about 30 pages in all and took many hours and long nights. I'm pretty proud of it. I tried to print it on winkflash, but they trim off about .5 an inch off the bottom and it won't work for me since I literally used the entire page on most of them, so if you plan on printing on winkflash leave some room at the bottom of the page for a little trim.

4. Isaak has started saying words. He repeats after you and said his name today. It was cute. He also says, "Hi," and "Mama," and "Da," which means Dad. I'm pretty sure because he points at Cory's picture and says, "DA!" He is also into stacking things. He tried to stack the laundry soap on his tractor along with several balls. He thought it was funny that the balls kept rolling off the top.

4. Last but not least--Survivor is back on. I think that I might qualify as an obsessed and loyal fan. I love it. I can't wait for it to be on and then when I watch an episode I can't wait until next week. Yeah for Survivor.
Super Nice that I get to see this happy face every single day!!!
Another Super Nice that I get to kiss this man every single day!!

So that's all the nice and exciting things of my week. Yeah for Nice.

Sounds like a great week. I can't believe Issac is saying words now. He is getting big. Time really flies. By the way, I think you are great.

July 29 Ward Lake & the Library Ketchikan

It's raining it's pouring the old man is snoring. He's really snoring. It's been down pouring since we got here last night and it poured all day long. We got up and headed out to Ward Lake to a BBQ with their church.  It's beautiful. The kids thought it was the best ever because they had donuts, chips, hot dogs, watermelon, cherries and cookies. Isaak of course immediately started playing with some kids his age. Chloe and Lydia frolicked around in the woods and played horseshoes. It stopped raining for maybe 10 minutes, but other than that it picked right back up. I was sure they were going to cancel the BBQ, but again the kids seemed indifferent to all the rain. Some of them were even kayaking. I was too busy freezing! The hike around the lake is 1.5 miles and we saw a beaver den sans beaver. We walked around the Lake and it was like being submerged in the rain forest. Well it's not like being submerged in a rain forest. We were in a rain forest called the Tong...

The Farthest North Point & Settlers Cove

The rain continues to come down. I've never seen it rain like this before. Teana and Derek told us that the rain is more consistent with weather in October than in the summer, but weather.com promises that a warm front is in store for tomorrow. We went to church in an amazing building. The ward house was completely built in Cedar. Apparently the church shipped a cedar kit and the members of the church in the area worked with general contractors to put it together. It's beautiful and it smells so good!!! Chloe didn't want to go to primary by herself. At first I was trying tough love, but she started weeping. Okay. So she was actually trully scared. I sat with her in primary and then someone in the sharing time chose to sing Gethsemane. Chloe immediately relaxed. I was again aware of how much Heavenly Father cares for his children. Gethsemane is Chloe's favorite song and she always sings it when she's sad or asks us to sing it for her. She then said it was okay if I...

July 28 Ketchikan Alaska

So I may be grateful that we camped out, but it literally rained all night long. And the sad news was that the sun wasn't coming out so we had to keep shaking out the rain fly repeatedly hoping for it to dry out. The good news is that it wasn't raining. The silver lining is that Isaak had so much fun playing with some kids from Smithers. They tromped around again all morning long. Isaak is brave. He saw kids running around and immediately went over to get involved in the game with no hesitation. They welcomed him instantly. I think it may have been Isaak's favorite campground because of how much fun he had. It made packing up wet stuff much easier. The rain fly was almost dry when we had to roll up the tent and get headed to Prince Rupert to check in for our ferry. We hoped to leave around 930-10am, but we didn't We wanted to go check out a preserve, but we plainly ran out of time. Prince Rupert is a cute little beachy port town. We did drive through downtown and had lu...
