Celebrating another BEAUTIFUL year

By -


Yes my friends, Shakespeare's birthday... April 23rd. As a full-fledged Shakespeare fan, I must share some of my favorites from Shakespeare compiled by some of my colleagues. (We're all the English nerd type).


"There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so."
Hamlet 2.2.270

"..a wilderness of monkeys."
The Merchant of Venice 3.1.121

"Lord, what fools these mortals be" A Midsummer Nights Dream Act 3, scene 2, 115

"Out out brief candle, life is but a walking shadow, a poor player who struts and frets his hour on the stage and then is heard no more..."
Macbeth, Act V somewhere

"Let me have men about me that are fat..." Julius Caesar 1:2:202

"How bitter a thing it is to look into happiness through another man's eyes!"
As You Like It Act V, scene II

And my personal favorite:
"If music be the food of love, play on,
Give me excess of it; that surfeiting,
The appetite may sicken, and so die."
Twelfth Night 1.1.1-3

Fools are often wise when Shakespeare takes the pen. Listen and hear the words they speak for they shall bring you sense.
(Me, today, now)

Happy Birthday to the best playwright about! (If you're going to comment that he may not even have existed, or didn't write the plays, or is gay...then DON'T... that's all).

She's here!

Hello Family and Friends! If you haven't heard yet, our little baby girl Adalyn was born Tuesday, March 15th at about 2pm. She was born by emergency C-section (they knocked Nicole all the way out because there wasn't time for anything else) and was under a lot of distress. After a wonderful blessing from her Grandpa Hicken and Daddy she was life flighted to McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden. She is still in the NICU there but is making great strides each and every day.  Her mommy and daddy named her Adalyn Julene Anderson-- after her great grandma Anderson (Julene). She has already blessed their lives immensely and she has benefited so much from prayers and fasts of family and friends. She has a long road ahead of her, but she is a fighter! Her grandpa Hicken calls her his little Millie- because she is a miracle baby and in Spanish, miracle is Milagro. She is a miracle and we are so happy to have her.  Love you all!

Delivery Day

By -
Well folks- it's D-Day! After talking some more and discussing with us- our doctors (a team of OBs and Perinatologists) have decided that it is best for baby boy not to have any risks with the placenta and come today. So- He's going to be very early- they will have completed the steroids though, so that is helpful. But we all feel that this is the very best thing for HIM. I'll have a c-section- hopefully regular this time- this afternoon and we will have a baby boy by this evening. He will go straight to the NICU and we'll just see how he does to know more about how long he will be there. Again, thank you all for your comments, prayers, texts, phone calls. We appreciate all of you and your love and support for us! Love you all- remember we are in His hands. And who's better to be in.
