Happy Thanksgiving!

"May we be found among those who give our thanks to our Heavenly Father. If ingratitude be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues. Despite the changes which come into our lives and with gratitude in our hearts, may we fill our days—as much as we can—with those things which matter most. May we cherish those we hold dear and express our love to them in word and in deed."

My Trip to Maryland

Some pics from my trip to Maryland!
Thanks for a great time, Laura. It was great spending time with you and the girls!

6 Quirks Tag

Thanks for the tag Kelly!
6 Quirks about me:
1. I have to have one foot out from underneath the blanket when I am sleeping (weird, huh?)
2. My side of the bed has to be closest to the bedroom door
3. I listen to Christmas music starting in September
4. I order 5 Sunday papers so I can have tons of coupons to sort through in my spare time LOL
5. I only take baths....no showers (unless I'm at a hotel!)
6. I am not a chocolate lover...I'd much rather have some Willy Wonka candy!

More photos from family weekend at USU. GO AGGIES!!!!!

Our little Xena and more!

I am happy to introduce the newest member of our family.......Xena! An adorable and very little Min Pin. She is about 2.5 yrs old and weighs 5.2lbs.

We were up at USU for family weekend last weekend and had a ball. It was great to see Jake and spend some time with him.

Kitchen Update & Mini Golfing

Today, I treated the boys to miniature golf because they actually behaved when I was at work! We went to Toad's in Ogden and had an absolute blast! We started off w/some yummy sausage pizza and then did the 18 hole course. Too much fun!
Also, our countertops are finished. They are gorgeous, we are so pleased. Our kitchen is still not put back together, but all in good time, right?
Hope you enjoy the pictures!

6 More Days!!

Until school starts! Woohoo! (not that I'm excited or anything!!)
We are currently awaiting our new countertops. It hasn't been easy not having a stove hooked up or any water in the kitchen, but I know my new countertops will be worth it!!
Jake seems to be enjoying USU so far! Classes start tomorrow for him.

Well, the day has come and gone.......Jake is officially a freshman at Utah State University in Logan, UT. We dropped him off yesterday (a week early) for a class that starts a week earlier than the other classes. He shares a suite with 5 other guys and he seemed pretty pleased w/his room and the roommates that he has met so far!
We stayed long enough for him to set his room up and for us to get him a few things he needed from Walmart, then we took him out for an early dinner and said Goodbye!
He is so excited to start and we couldn't be prouder of him. I truly can't believe that the time has come and that we have a college freshman.
Good Luck this year Jake! Have a great year! We love you!

Busy Weekend

What a busy weekend in the Muller household :) Frank is out of school for a whole whopping week and we are desperately trying to get our basement finished. BUSY, BUSY, BUSY!
Jake is on a 4 day (40 mile) backpacking trip in the Tetons. Please pray that he has a safe and uneventful trip! We take him to school next Saturday.
Samuel and Ben went to the Kids build it workshop at Lowe's today and had a ball making a school locker.

Let's try this again!

Well, I kind of gave up on blogging for a while. Thought I'd try it again. So, here goes:
This week has been HOT! Over 100 degrees every day! The boys are so tan, they don't even look like they belong to me! They are enjoying their summer break by swimming, going to Lagoon frequently & driving their mother NUTS!
