NEED YOUR IDEAS

So it has been a long time since I posted again. Not much goes on in the Clegg Home, so there is not much to report. Jordan and I have just been working, going to school, and hanging out enjoying the time we get to spend together - I have to say I love the man more and more every day!! About 5 months ago Jordan and I were called as the Sunday School teachers of the 13 and 14 year olds and we love it. This last week I was also put in as the Young Women Secretary and am way excited, but slightly overwhelmed. I am now in charge of Personal Progress and how it all works out I am in charge of next Tuesday's Activity. So here is where I need your help - it is Saturday and I have no idea on what I am going to do. So if you have any ideas that are fun and easy for Personal Progress Ideas I would really appreciate. it I have read some stuff online, but have no idea if I am even close to the mark! I just want to make a good first impression on the girls that Personal Progress can be fun!! So I need your help with any ideas. Thanks.

Albuquerque or Bust...

This year for thanksgiving Jordan and I had the opportunity to visit my wonderful sister-in-law Jamie and her family in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We drove all day (9 1/2 hours) on Wednesday to make it there for dinner on Thursday. Dinner was delicious and we had a great afternoon playing rock band and just catching up. On Friday Jamie and her family so graciously took us to the zoo and the aquarium and since Jordan believes that I am "a child in a grown ups body" I had a blast seeing all the animals and playing in the childrens fantasy land at the aquarium. On Saturday we decided to come home to try and beat the snow and as soon as we got into Utah the sky got darker and darker and we ended up detouring to Panguitch but 10 1/2 hours later made it safely back home. Here are some pictures of our trip.

Finally New Mexico

Rock Band (I don't think we will be joining a band any day soon lol)

Happy Halloween

This year for Halloween I was able to spend it with my sisters again. We had a great time and I am so thankful that we live close enough to be able to spend good times with my family. Because halloween was on Saturday we were able to carve pumpkins on Friday night. On Saturday Kadee got to cheer at a Football game so I got a ton of pictures of her and then we got to trick or treat (well Kenlee and I did, while Jordan just went with us) It was great weekend.

Also Jordan got me a new camera for my birthday (a little early) so now I might actually post some pictures, but we will have to see if I get any better at this blogging thing ;).

kadee cheers!!!

The things I learned this past year...

So I am not the best blogger. I always think I need to blog but then I never get around to it. I have had such a great year so far and these are some of the things I have learned and have come to appreciate.

1- Halloween is the best holiday ever. (Sorry my camera had struggles this day)
My sister and I have had our costumes for this year picked out since May. :)

Last year: Kenlee - Barrel of Monkey's, Kadee and Kylee- Red Sox!!

2- My family are the funniest people I will ever know. We make "funnies" left and right.

3- K-mart can be the most entertaining place you have ever been if you are with the right people!!



















4- The Merry-Go-Round at K-mart is the best 25 Cents you will EVER Spend. That thing goes for like ten minutes.



5-I LOVE the rain!! unless it is at Lagoon.

6- Life is only as simple as YOU make it.

7- Sitting THROUGH traffic is better than sitting IN Traffic. :)

MOM, KADEE, & KENLEE sitting in the parking lot for two
hours watching 200 cars fight for one gate at Stadium of Fire.

8- The Stadium of Fire is a great way to celebrate the 4th of July!! And the Jonas Brothers really are not bad.

9- Sometimes in life your best just simply isn't enough, but with the Lord your best is always enough.

10- That Cartoon Characters can answer some of lifes most serious problems!!


11- I Really did marry my best friend...

The Awful Truth

Lately I have been receiving some pretty interesting e-mails that put into perspective the bitter truth about our nation. Here are a couple I would like to share:

The Tax Poem

Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table
At which he's fed.

Tax his tractor,
Tax his mule,
Teach him taxes
Are the rule.

Tax his work,
Tax his pay,
He works for peanuts
Anyway!

Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.

Tax his ties,
Tax his shirt,
Tax his work,
Tax his dirt.

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his cigars,
Tax his beers,
If he cries
Tax his tears.

Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his ass.

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers,
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He's good and sore.

Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he's laid.

Put these words
Upon his tomb,
"Taxes drove me to my doom..."

When he's gone,
Do not relax,
Its time to apply
The inheritance tax.

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, and our nation was the most prosperous in the world.

We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest
middleclass in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What in the world happened? Can you spell "politicians?"

And I still have to "press 1" for Eng lish!?

And the second one - I liked is a quote by Adrian Rogers:

"You cannont legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation.
"You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

I don't know about anyone else but I am sick and tired of working my butt off and watching my husband work his butt off just to pay for my worthless neighbors cigarettes that they so nicely smoke beneath my windows so that I have to shut them in order to keep my house from smelling like a bar.

So this is to any worthless people who may be reading this (you know who you are and just in case you don't let me help you --- if you stand in line to get a check from the government so you can turn you power back on because you have been smoking cigarettes and drinking beer in the dark for a week -- it's you!!) GET A JOB - SO I DON'T HAVE TO PAY YOU TO ANNOY ME!!


Everyone else have a fabulous day!!!

Need Your Help

Hey Everyone!!! It has been a long time since I blogged but let's just face it - I am bad at this. Anyway I am blogging in hope of getting your help. As some of you may know I am a sucker for donating to good causes, so when I was asked to help out with the March Of Dimes Jail & Bail. This fundraiser is to raise money to help prevent premature birth of babies. This is a really good cause and the donation is 100% taxable. Please if you can go over to my website at www.jailandbail.marchofdimes.com/kclegg and you can securely make any amount of donation. You can also leave me a comment with your e-mail address and I will send you my address and you can send cash or check.

I really appreciate any donation that you are willing to make (if you can). This really is a great cause. Some interesting facts:

55,000 babies are born every year in Utah
20 % of those 55,000 are born to mothers wh received inadequate prenatal care
5,512 are born preterm
300 babies die before their 1st birthday

The money donated goes to help educate high risk pregnant women and families, goes towards research to find prevention of premature birth, supports education for health professionals working toward the prevention of premature birth, and goes toward programs to help pregnant women to quit smoking.

We are all at one time or another touched by the March of Dimes!! We need to do what we can to prevent tragedies and hard times.
