Magnets 101

Kyle got a new calling at church as the Gospel Doctrine teacher for Sunday school. He's a bit nervous. :) He teaches twice a month and tomorrow is his first time. My Mom had this calling a few years ago before she started teaching seminary and my younger brothers and sister wanted her to get released because she would always quote scriptures to them. Well, the other day Kyle started to quote a scripture to me about some day-to-day thing and so I had to laugh. It reminded me of the joke with my Mom and how she used to do that! It must be something with that calling. HA!

Preston browsing through The Friend magazine. I just thought it looked cute.

This is a face when he whines and wants me! You can see a fresh wound by his left eye. One of many to come, I'm sure. I cut his hair on my own the other day and I think it turned out pretty good. It's a good thing he's so blonde b/c it hides mistakes well. He actually sit still during the hair cut. He would cry every time I turned off the clippers to change the guard. You'd think he would cry when I turned the clippers on!

Kate wanted a picture taken of her! This is her ultimate cheesy smile. Her latest thing is talking about wanting to go to Disneyland to give all the princesses a hug.

These are some magnets I have been making today. (The picture is sideways for some reason and they are on my old metal pan- it looks gross. :)) They were so easy and fun to make. I bought all the stuff to make them a couple years ago to do with my family, but we never did them. So just the other day I pulled the stuff out and started making some. On the fridge, they look much cuter than just a regular magnet.

All you do is use a clear gem stone thing (I bought them at Target) and glue (you want to use a clear glue, I used a dimensional magic glue) on a cute piece of paper to the back. You want to place glue on the flat part of the gem, put the paper on and then put glue on the back of the paper as well and smear the glue around with your finger to cover the paper and seal the edges. Let it dry and hot glue a round magnet to the back. Done! You should make some.
