Kimberly gets her very own scriptures!


Kimberly with her scriptures.                                   
Ross and I still don't have any children, but we have a the opportunity to have Kim live with us. We have said from the beginning that we wanted the gospel to be important to our family. So when Kim moved in, we started having FHE, we started having family prayer, and now we want to start a family scripture study. So in order to do this Kim needed her very own scriptures. 
Today, while she was at a friends house, we went into town and purchased a navy blue set, and her name Kimberly Kay, done in silver.  When she came home we gave them to her, and she couldn't believe that they were in fact her very own scriptures, until she saw her name. She was even impressed that they are in her favorite color. Once she got over how pretty they were she had to go figure out what outfit she would match them the best. 
A great outfit that goes with her scriptures.
Ross and I love having Kimberly with us. We love the joy and excitement she bring to each day. Having Kim with us, has made us really want to have children, and I am positive they will be as cool as Kimberly. So I can't wait till we have children of our own!

We are kinda like Ghostbusters...except not really.

Ross and I looking for ghosts to bust.

Ross works downtown for a retail software developing company, and supposedly the building he works in is haunted. His work building use to be a meat packing business, then it was gutted an turn into a candy factory, currently it just a office building.  Scary huh? Not really. Last night Ross and some of the people he works with decided to investigate the building to see if it truly is haunted.  Some of the claims is that someone died there, someone has died everywhere. So I am a skeptic. Also when it was a candy factory a girl was severely burn there and then and died a week later. There is no evidence this true.
This is me...really looking deeply.

We went anyway. Ross was able debunk a lot what people were claiming was paranormal activity. It is a good thing my husband is a scientist and loves experiments. One of claims of paranormal activity was a woman who he works with would hear whistling in the ladies locker room.  Ross was able to go into the mens locker room. He stood in there an whistled and I could hear it in the ladies.
 I don't know if where Ross works is haunted or not, cause it was never proved or disproved, but we had a lot of fun searching.
