Proof that I am a good sister!

We had christmas early because Michael and Kim went to her parents this year! So we opened about sibling presents and pajama's! Matching girls!

Ah so cute!

So I am not sure where the video will show up! Michael has been so awesome with helping me out on my house! He has done so much work! I wanted to thank him so I bought him a life time hunting license! Kyle was a little sad because then he wouldn't be special be he understood! In Michael's defence he hadn't gotten a lot of sleep all week! But we know he is a Wilding!

My 15 year old self!

March 9, 2001

Dear Melissa of 18 years,

Since you have now completed High School and just started you first seimester at the college of education at ISU, I hope that things will work out for you in the future. To make things fun, cause right now I'm bored, Lets say that you are writting to a couple of missonarys. lets just say that taking wrestling stats haves it advatages. This is a joke. One of those missionary's is very special. I know that you problemly miss Michael very much. Even though right now it seams hard to look at the golden boy. I that you are still living worthy so you can go on a mission. (if you are not already married) I hope that you never lose connection with Natalie, Maggie, and Jenifer. I really hope that Jake finaly got the clue to either stop being so complainful or to finale leave you alone. Hopefull the you get your Young Womens adwards.

Love Ya for all ways

Melissa Wilding 15 and 6 months

Oh this letter kills me. I think it is so funny! Then I started to wonder if the 15 years and 6 months me would be proud of the 25 years and 3 mounths and 14 days me! Especially because I was reading the letter at 12:30 in the afternoon still in my pajamas wearing mickey mouse ears- glow stick ears. A lot has changed 10 years! I did go to ISU College of Ed and graduated! I didn't go on a mission but wrote 4 missionaries (not the way anticipated One brother and 3 best friends). There are reasons I didn't go, I felt that I was need here and it scared me to death. I am so far from being married it isn't funny. But I think I have turn out farely good. I am confident women that knows what my streghths are and what I need to laugh at because I am so bad! I know who I am. I am super funny. There are people in the world who love me a lot! Mostly my family (and then mostly my Aunts!) my crazy friends (from church to school) and my students (they won't leave me alone they keep coming back to see me even during class. I need to be meaner!) Even though at the time (15 years old) I promised to live with my parents forever (which I really did want to do) I have bought and now live in my super cool house! I am so blessed it is crazy! My plans are not the same as they used to be but I think that I would be proud of me!

Journey to becoming a Domestic Goddess Part 1

So I got a couch at the DI and So I of course had to clean it before I used it! I remembered that Brad and Debra had a little carpet cleaner that I could use! I went and picked it up so the next moring I would be able to clean it the next morning! At 10:00 I start to look at it and figure out how to use it! I start putting pieces where I think they should go but there are a few part I am not use where to put! So luckly for me I was texting my Aunt Allison so I asked her if the part needed to be pluged in! I was in even more luck because she had the same machine and when I couldn't get the water to come out she could talk be through it! (Melissa Roberts use to call her self a Domestic Goddess all the time because she would burn food all the time and I would call her a Domestic Goddess because she would make her own dress. We would laugh because we knew that I was far from it!) As I was cleaning the couch, the matress that goes in the hide a bed, the rocking love seat, and ugly brown chair I was thinking man I am totally on my way to becoming a domestic goddess! Rock On! The crazy machine!
My Couch! I think it looks like Aunt Allison's old ones! Doesn't it look super clean!

I wish you could tell but I am soaked from my knees down! Maybe I am just a domestic princess!

It had a hole but I in all my glory sowed it!

Can't even tell! I used silver thread!

What Do Your Clothes Say About You!

So I was unpacking my clothes and I noticed wow I have a lot of hoodies! In this picture there are 9 but I found one more in the wash so that makes 10! Man I love them! And this is not all of my jackets. So with this new found information I started to think I have a lot of sweaters I wonder how many!

The number is 12 in the picture but I found one more in the wash and then one is coming on Christmas so that will bring the number to 14! I had to hang my dress pants up because My dresser fell out of Michael's truck and it was crushed! So I counted how many dress pants I had! 16! But don't worry most of them are hand me downs!

Christmas Decorations!

I thought that I had bought a lot of Christmas decorations but this is all of them! Ah look at mine and Kenna's stockings from Julianne hung on the mantel with care!

Some of the odiments on the tree! I put these pictures in backwards on accident. I the special teacher on is from my mom!

This what I gave to Kenna it says Our First Christmas 2010! Oh it was funny!

I couldn't keep get my parents computer to save this the right way but this is my Tree all decorated!

This is my Tree topper! It is to small to go on normal but as lovely daughters of Mark, We twisty tied it to the Top!

COOKIES!

Oh one of my most favorite traditions that we have is making christmas cookies Wilding style! I am so excited every year!
Michael getting ready to roll the door!

We love each other! Kyle was gone doing seminary visits!

Kyle and Michael's flour fight! I think Kim joined in too! Kenna and I were gone to a fireside!

It was also Michael's Birthday today! The candells are 8+8+4=20 and then 7 little candells and that equals 27!

Chauno! Shaun Lemmon! It is a tradition to make your neighbors that are on a mission out of cookies! Made with Love by Kenna! I also made one of Melissa Roberts but apparently I have deleted the picture. Which is sad cause it really looked like her!

My Christmas Wreath!

All of the cookies almost 300!

Ugly Sweater

So today at school in my classes we had holiday ugly holiday sweater contest! The students were supose to wear a sweater! So I wore this out fit! Well in first hour nobody wore it so I felt like a dork! When I walked down the hall you should have seen the looks I was getting! In thrid hour (second is my prep which for some reason had about 15 students in it) I had two students wear a sweater! One student wore his littles sisters! Oh it was a awesome little pink sweater. The arms hit about three inches to short! The second was a Santa t-shirt. 4th hour no one (just a blasted long code red drill when the principal kept coming on saying it was a code red). 5th hour a student pulled out a vest that was uglier then mine and he wore it all hour (he had stolen it from his grandma) so I gave him the prize! I am so excited about having a two weeks off!
