my b-day/ mi cumpleanos

Let me tell you about my b-day.(it's one for the books) I not only worked all day and had a class until 9:00 p.m,
but when we got in the car after class we noticed a weird noise, we stop to check it out; Surprise: we had a flat tire. (note: I've never changed a tire before).this was at Weber State university.
Tamara and I were thinking what to do when a guy comes to the car an offers to change the tire, we said ok and looked for tools and the spare; we found the spare under the van, but no tools were found. then another guy came with a jack and a lug wrench (Jordan told me the name of it)

this guy took the tire off. Another guy came with a tool to lower the spare from under the van;then we found out the the spare was also deflated, the second guy still put the flat donut on and like that we drove to the nearest gas station and put air in it. finally we made it home at about 10:45 p.m.
thanks to all the people that stoped to ask and helped us to fix the tire. well i didn't do anything but watch how they did it. maybe next time i'll do it my self.






les cuento de mi cumpleanos, no solo trabaje todo el dia, tuve clase hasta las 9:00p.m. y cuando salimos de la clase y empezamos a manejar de regreso a la casa nos dimos cuenta que una de las llantas estaba ponchada. mientras que tamara y yo pensabamos que hacer un muchacho se acerco y dijo que el podia cambiar la llanta y dijimos que bien y gracias, pero solo encontramos la llanta de repuesto que estaba debajo del carro, pero no encontramos ninguna herramienta para quitar la llanta. otro muchacho vino con el gato y unas pinzas,quito la llanta ponchada; pero no podiamos sacar la llanta de repuesto por que necesitamos otra herramienta que no teniamos. un tercer muchacho paro y nos presto el desarmador para sacar la llanta de repuesto y resulta que la de repuesto tambien estaba desinflada pero la pusieron de todas maneras y asi manejamos hasta la gasolinera mas cercana y pusimos aire en la llanta. al fin llegamos a casa como alas 10:45 pm.
fue un cumpleanos para recordar.

Manging our homes/ Como administrar nuestro Hogar

I am teaching a class in relief society about home management, so this is what I'm writhing about today. If you have any ideas, please feel welcome to share them.

When we keep our homes tidy, we feel a sense of pride. We enjoy a peaceful atmosphere at home when it is clean. We can find anything we want whenever we want it.

Housework is important, but it should not take away from more important things.

Having a clean home should not be our main goal; it should be part of our goal to be happy and have happy families. We need time to develop our talents and learn to live the principles of the gospel. When we keep our homes clean without spending too much time on housework, we are free to spend more time in family activities and to do other important things.

To be comfortable, a house has to be functional. The first step in organizing our homes is to decide what the function of each room is. Then we can put what we need in that room in well-organized drawers and cupboards. It takes less time to do a job if we have organized our working conditions first. Sometimes we may not finish everything we have planned for the day. If we do the most important things first, however, we have used our time well.



Estoy preparando una clase para la sociedad de socorro de como manejar mejor nuestro hogar y de eso estoy escribiendo hoy:
un hogar ordenado nos permite sentir un poco de orgullo, por que se goza de un ambiente de paz; ademas podemos encontrar todo lo que deseamos cuando lo queremos. es mucho mas facil mantener un hogar limpio cuando esta organizado.
Necesitamos encontrar la manera de pasar menos tiempo limpiando la casa y pasar mas tiempo con nuestra familia. Los quehaceres de la casa son imporatantes, pero no deben absorbernos de otras cosas mas importantes.
Nuestra meta principal es de ser felices y tener una familia feliz.
Debemos tener una casa que sea practica, osea, que cada cuarto, cada cajon, y cada rincon debe tener un proposito especial.
la regla mas importante es no sacrificar lo que vale la pena por lo que no lo vale; necesitamos decidir que es lo mas importante y hacerlo primero. Si el tiempo no nos alcanza para hacer todo lo planeado; pero si hemos cumplido con lo de mayor importancia, hemos utilizado nuestro tiempo como es debido.

I can't believe how much she is grown/ Que Grande esta!!!

It seems like it was yesterday when i could hold her in my arms and she would stay STILL!!

Parece ayer que yo podia cargarla en mis brazos; y ella se quedaba tranquila y sin moverse!!

Now she is everywhere; she crawls, pulls herself up, and loves to see her self: in the mirror or her shadow.

Ahora anda por todas partes: gatea, se para ,y le encanta verse en el espejo, y ver su sombra. She stays still for her Papi. She loves her PAPI!!!

Nora ama a su PAPI, todavia se queda tranquila si esta con el.
