Happy Mothers day!!

EVEN THOUGH WE ARE NOT WITH YOU TODAY WE ARE ALWAYS THINKING ABOUT THE WONDERFUL MOTHER AND GRNDMOTHER THAT YOU ARE...I HOPE TODAY WAS MAGICAL AND THAT YOU ENJOY BEING A KID FOR A FEW DAYS. THANKS FOR ALL YOU'VE INSTILLED IN ME... I AM STRONG AND MAKING IT ONE DAY AT A TIME. THANKS FOR LISTENING AND PRAYING FOR ME.

THE BIG DAY!!

AS Everyone Knows We have been working on being sealed for quite sometime. Basic Laziness kept us from going after our goal. It is a very long process it took us from beginning to end 7 months. It is also very emotional and exhausting. We had multiple interviews, wrote many letters, and relived alot of challenging experiences. We had finally decided after 6 months that we would just have to wait on the first preidency, and that our hopes of having it done in UT while we were up there for the summer wouldn't happen. So imagine our surprise when we got our letter from the first presidency of the church letting us know that we were approved to be sealed for Time and for all Eternity. We were over the moon with excitement, but we were leaving in 5 days for UT and would have to be interviewed by the Bishop and the Stake President in that short amount of time. We also had to get both families on board. Calling the temple, prepping the kids, organizing a "second Wedding" so to speak. Thanks to Everyones ability to pitch in and support we pulled it off. With Tears in our eyes we were given the chance to be sealed.
We still had to face many struggles...Satan has a crazy way of working on you especially when you are doing something as important as this was. We just held hands, and kept thinking about the end result. It was very emotional the day we arrived at the tample. July 17th 2010 we walked through the doors of the Bountiful temple with our 3 beautiful children and all our loved ones. The kids were so sweet and The love in the sealing room was Beyond earthly. Our sealer Brother Craig Smith said the most beautiful things. Kevin and I were sealed first, and then he said " I think I hear little voices, here come the children" I lost it. In the room all of them dressed in white they came. Not one dry eye was in the room. My mom Held Jaxs little hand on ours and Jace looked on not saying a word. I wanted to freeze time and keep them in there forever. Peyton sat watching, knowing he was as much apart of this as the other two..even though he was already sealed.
What a Beautiful Day...I am so blessed to have my sweet little family. I am also grateful for our friends who came...loving family members, and the well wishes from those who could not attend. Words cannot fully express the love I felt that day.

OFF TO THE FAIRY FOREST

We always Have the Best time in UT for the Summer..Mom and Dad wanted to take Jace fishing, and although he wasn't allowed to cast the fishing pole...ahhemm Dad!! Mom wanted us to see the fairy forest, we got some giant rocks to paint so they could be added to the forest. They are spending the winter at mom and dads due to the fact that they didn't take them...lol. We had a great time minus the abundance of mosquitos.

Summer 2010

I HATE CAMERAS..MERRY CHRISTMAS

So I haven't updated in a long time because Cameras hate me..My original camera was stolen at a garage sale at our house, right out of our garage. I was devastated,but luckily had downloaded allbut a few pics. I received my second camera from Santa and enjoyed its presence for 2 short days before it came up missing. This time I didn't get any of my pictures off of it...grrr. All our christmas pictures gone this time it was personal. We turned my parents house inside out, my mom even raked the backyard with a leaf rake. Im afraid it is in a landfill somewhere. So I am going to buy another camera which I will attach to my arm somehow.

*This is a shoutout to Christy H. I did come up for christmas. I just saw your message. Call me..so we can plan getting together. Come down to visit me..it's warmer and we can go shopping!! Let's get together..if u lost my # call my mother.
