to those who have found it a little bit more difficult being a latter-day saint in california in this election season, the link below may be found useful. it is a talk given by elder robert d. hales this recent general conference.

although the talk was primarily aimed at the adversities of religious contentions, those of us living in california (and i include the denizens of arizona and florida due to their similar circumstances) may find the words of elder hales applicable to the political situations that we are entrenched in. remember, sticks and stones...

bug-sitting
so this past weekend my wife and i had the opportunity to have niece #6 accompany us while her mother was off in florida for work. this baby was so well-behaved that she never even woke me up once in my nightly slumber i spent a good amount of time bouncing her on the bed and the photos below are some of the results. also, niece#6 has grown so much that i was able to use her as a twenty-something pound weight for curls and lifts and such.

easter eggs
today, being easter and all, my wife and i decided to do some egg coloring. we each had five eggs to color and the photos below contain the end results (mine are on the top row and the second row belongs to my wife). according to her, her favorite of mine appears to be the purple confetti while my favorite of hers is the cracked red labeled "fix me".

my beautiful wife finally has a flaw
i can not believe that my wife is a closet "american idol" fan. after nearly three months of marriage, her true colors have finally exposed themselves. i still love her although as i type this, she has not acknowledged the fact that i am sitting next to her. yep. she has it tivoed and she is now in the middle of a second episode for the evening. she is even shouting "stop your crying you emo baby!" and "what a whiner!" and "ugg-city!" at the contestants. apparently, she is rooting for the filipino girl (yeah, like i care that a contestant is filipino even though said filipino is going to run the table) and that is the sole reason why she is watching this.
now in a third episode, my wife has tried to explain as to why she suspects one of the female contestants is mormon. i love her so i still sit next to her.
