Summer Fun!

So the summer has just flown by. We have had so much fun spending time together...the kids have loved doing lots of things in the sun.

 We had a blast with cousins. They went up and down the escalators over a dozen times at the mall and then had ice cream cones...they loved it.

Then Alicia got Married!

 It was a beautiful day and Alicia was glowing. We were so happy for her and Matt.


The kids took swimming lessons and loved every second. They learned so much and were little fish who didn't want to come out.

 Little Emilyne came too to watch...it got a little tiring and nice and cosy for a nap.

 We loved making breakfast. One of the favorites was french toast and Miley loved to flip them. My little helper. Jeffery helped too, holding Emi.

 We have been able to do a lot of fun things together like going to baseball games and swimming. Even Emi loved the water.

 Emi loves to stretch. She is the best stretcher and very content. This is one of the few times she was upset...

We loved being together and making some great memories this summer.

More Summer Fun!

 Look at those cute kids...they love holding little Emi.




Happy Birthday, She is FIVE! I can't believe my Miley is five years old. She had a blast on her birthday. We went and saw Despicable Me 2 and we loved it. Then came home to go swimming and because they were cleaning the pool we found our own and got to have a blast at home. We were happy to see all the family that day and spend some time with them. Even Tanner before he left for the MTC. It was a great day.

She is here!

So we are so excited to have our little Emi here. We can't seem to hold her enough.
 Everyone wants a turn.

 This is what welcomed us home.....

She is bringing so much joy and love into our home.

MAY is Here!...and almost gone...

So we have been pretty busy around here...I guess life never stops or slows down when it comes to having a family. Jeffery had his 7th Birthday!!!!!! I can't believe my little boy is seven. Look how handsome he is...just like his dad. We had fun playing baseball and having family come to visit to help us celebrate.

 Jeffery also finished his first year of school! Wow that went fast. He loved every second of it and I even found him in tears because he wanted to be at school. I think he is enjoying the break though. Miley looks up to him so much. They are the best of friends.

 So this is what happens when a pregnant woman is quilting and making bread at the same time....Dough explosion!!! I was having way too much fun making these for my girls.....

 So this it is a great feeling finishing a project like this but nothing compares to the joy of seeing it wrapped around the person you made it for and seeing the joy it brings them. She LOVES it! I have even caught Jeffery snuggling in it....I am going to have to start on one for him. Can't leave him out.

I can't wait to wrap our new baby in this one...3 1/2 weeks and yes I am counting. We are so excited to have a new little one in our family. So much to do and very little time to do it in...such is life.

Easter!!!!!

So I can't believe Easter has come and gone...it was a beautiful day to have an Easter egg hunt and celebrate the resurrection of our Savior.

We had a blast coloring eggs and we even made a bunny carrot cake. They were pretty bright colored by the time they had finished. The kids were really patient because dad had to go home teaching after church and they had to wait a little longer....this is them waiting for him to come home.

They are pretty cute aren't they.....
