What does he ask?

How could the Father tell the world 

of love and tenderness?

He sent his Son, 

a newborn babe, 

with peace

 and holiness.

How could the Father show the world 

the pathway we should go?

He sent his Son to walk with men 

on earth, that we may know.

How could the Father tell the world 

of sacrifice,

 of death?

He sent his Son to die for us 

and rise with living breath.

What does the Father ask of us? 

What do the scriptures say?

Have faith,

 have hope,

 live like his Son,

 help others on their way.

What does he ask? 

Live like his Son

I was reminded of this message today in Primary as we were singing in opening exercises. I am so grateful for a calling that gives me the opportunity to learn from such sweet little spirits, and a calling that also gives me wonderful little reminders such as this one. 

May we never forget, 

HE 

was the one that asked us. 

And of all the things he could ask for, 

that's not all that much.

Live like his Son.

THIS is why I love my job. period.

Back in November I had the girls come over to my house because I needed to make a cake! So to get a head start, Taya and I went over while the other girls were in school to bake it. While it was in the oven, I had a grand idea to make a video on my laptop! Here are some of the best ones that we made. :)

P.S. IT ONLY TAKES a little over 5 MINUTES TO WATCH ALL OF THESE. Sooo watch them. :) k bye.

ALSO don't watch me, its the girls faces that make it the cutest.

BUG EYES

CHIPMUNK

Notice I'll start pulling faces and taya will try to copy them. Ha ha.

Taya didn't have a nap... ha ha.. but she's still cute.

This one has all 4.. they are just too cute. :)

i am one ridiculously excited little girl

{insert clever blog title here}

Okay, I have been staring at this blank blog post for DAYS. I can not get the inspiration to write... I think it's because I just got my wisdom teeth out. But.... I'm finally {almost} healed! Hallelujah! :) Ha ha. Word to the wise, when doctors say, "Make sure you eat food when you take your medication", (even if it is just advil that you are taking) they aren't just concerned about your hunger.... they mean that it may result in stomach ulcers if you don't. Trust me. You do not want to do that. And yes, I am speaking from experience. Ha ha. Lets just say it hasn't been the greatest last couple of days, but the end is near and Christmas is ALMOST here!!!! :) :)

I am so excited for Christmas! I'm also excited for my family to come and visit on the 26, and to have all of my friends/family open their presents that I have given them, and to just have yet another wonderful Christmas holiday! :) Horray! :) ha ha.

I am also excited for the new year! :) Because that means new beginnings! If you are an avid blog follower of mine, you may remember a post from September where I expressed my fear and shock, of being done with school and not finding out until the end of the course that I would not be a "Certified" Medical Office Administrator.

Well after many a thought, I've come to the conclusion that on February 7, 2012, I will be going back to MATC to become a CNA.

I'm SO excited! :) I will only be going to school on Tuesday and Thursday from 5:30-9:30 PM. It will take me until the end of April to the beginning of May to finish, but once I am finished, I am hoping to be a Patient Care Assistant in a hospital setting. A few months ago, as I was looking for jobs on IHC's website (for medical office administration) I came across this job and for some reason it sparked my interest, and haven't been able to stop thinking about it ever since! :) Also with having my CNA, it will be easier for me to get a job in Medical Office Administration because having the title of a CNA will make me more qualified, or so I've heard. Ha ha.

Now because of experience, I know that plans can change. I still have some more conversing to do with a very close friend of mine...(HF)... but as of now... That's the plan!

I hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas season!!.........and THAT'S a sip of Livi's Lemonade! :)

Wreath numero dos

Now that it is December, it is time to retire my Thanksgiving wreath... {sad day}... 

SO I decided to make a Christmas Wreath! :)

With a little inspiration from Pintrest, I hopped into the car, and went to Hobby Lobby to purchased these items....

And unlike my last wreath which took about an hour and a half.... this one was done in literally less than five minutes! :)

But then I decided that something was missing... it didn't look right to me...

So I added some of the ribbon that the original wreath was hanging from, to the bottom of the wreath and PRESTO! 

My master piece was complete. :)

Tis the season to be crafty! Uh, I mean, jolly. :)

More holiday posts to come! I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping! {Hooray!} My goal was to have it done by the 15th, the day I get my wisdom teeth out.. ha ha.. so I'm really close! :)

Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday season! :)

Getting Crafty!

So I meant to post about this at the beginning of November... but I didn't. So I'm posting it now! I'm a currently obsessed with making wreaths. I was on pintrest at the beginning of this month and that is sort of where I got my inspiration for my task.

1 styrofoam board, hot glue, leaves, ribbon, and a door hanger.

My mom made the pattern for the "M"

And my Dad cut it out for me.

Then I started gluing leaves all around it.

Almost there...

Ta da! :) The finished product!

I was very proud of myself for being crafty for once in my life other than girls camp... ha ha. Every time I would walk through the door I would just have to stop and stare at my work... ha ha. 

But now, fall is over. So i'm currently in the process of coming up with my NEW wreath for this month. Yes, I'm going to make this a monthly ordeal. Anyone want me to make you one? It keeps me occupied, and I just love making them! Ha ha. So just let me know! I'll make sure to post about my new wreath as soon as it's done! :)
