BIG FAVOR!

If there is anyone left who reads my blog, I'm asking for a BIG favor! Many of you know that I am running for Gilbert Town Council and one of my biggest challenges is getting my name out there. To increase my visibility in Google and other search engines, I was wondering (hoping, pleading, begging) that you might be able to put a link to my website somewhere on your own blog? Here's how it works best - if you could write in a post my name (Jenn Daniels) and then put somewhere that I am running for Gilbert Town Council - (here's the little bit tricky part) - hyperlink Gilbert Town Council with my web address www.voteforjenn.com - sounds harder than it is - (to create a hyperlink just click on the green earth symbol when you are creating a post and follow the prompts). MANY, MANY THANKS as we work to really make a big push during these last few weeks before the election.

He's Home!

My bro is home from the Philippines. We had a great weekend with him and he is officially available for dates with cute, smart, kind girls in the 20 - 25 age range. Spread the word! Just another note about Joel - some people come back from the mission a little ... how shall we say... socially inept. Not my brother. He's still funny, easy to be with, happy and a little bit cocky. Post-mission we can now add the following characteristics: smart, spiritual, hard-working and thoughful. Really - he is the new and improved version of his former self. Gotta love him!

LOVIN' AZ

Just thought I'd throw this out there...

A Little Post about Eric D

While I certainly deserve to go to bed right now, my husband deserves a mighty good blogpost even more. He did in fact have a birthday this week - and now he sports the number 35! When I look at all that he has accomplished in this life I can only say "I KNEW IT!" - it has always been easy to see the potential in Eric and it must be said that he has exceeded all expectations. And I must share with you his most amazing qualities...



1. Supportive - we recently attended an event that required nametags - his read "Eric - Jenn's husband" Seriously, that is an act of solidarity.



2. Funny - he still says some funny stuff that makes me laugh until I cry, or pee, or stuff comes out of my nose. ***because it is nearly midnight I can't actually think of anything funny but I can tell you that I spent most of last night at Eric's birthday dinner with my legs crossed :)



3. Great Dad - you've never met a guy who would rather play with his kids than do ANYTHING else - it is actually hard to think of a hobby that Eric has simply because he spends any and all free time with the boys



4. Ingenious - Eric is always coming up with creative solutions to our everyday problems. Most of those solutions include zip ties, glue, duct tape or a special trip to Home Depot but they always result in problems solved. I wonder sometimes if this is why he has a hard time sleeping.



5. Totally the most observant man alive - I try to sneak stuff past him, I really do. He notices everything!!! This has its downsides - but he can remember directions anywhere, has a great eye for style and he'll tell me the honest truth when I need help with an outfit or picking out bedding.



6. Last but not least - Eric is supremely thoughtful! He'll bring me a cup of water, often stops at the grocery store or Costco without being asked, he is ALWAYS willing to watch the kids or give me a break and he is quick to respond to others in need.




Happy Birthday Eric D!


This was breakfast in bed - biscuits and gravy - at his request!




His fav is homemade blueberry pie - hence the birthday pie instead of cake!
