Thanks

We did thanksgiving in St David with brian's brothers family this year. We had a great time.



Kassidy made all the napkins for us after a long Internet search. Very cool flowers!



Brian, kass, Charlotte, abs.


Brian put on his dads tie thinking he was so very funny and it was!


Abs saying cheese so she could eat!

I am so thankful for all I have especially an extended family that makes me feel so loved!

Birthdays and laughs

Today is brian's birthday! So glad he came home so we could celebrate. What does any good dad do on his birthday? Buy his girls presents!!! A day full of shopping for him ended up a day full of shopping for us. He is so great that I know he wouldn't have it any other way. We got him the shirts he's always wanted but would not spend the money on and a coupon for running shoes of his choice:) I don't know what we would do without him!!!


Eating dessert of peanut butter cookies in bed watching shark week! Does it get better?- nope


Might be my fav pict of all time. This is life in our house. Any one good shot takes a million of these to get. Life is good!

Super 6

So our little girl is 6! She is living it too! All day she has put the phrase that's how six year olds do (insert activity here)! So funny.

We love her so much. She's our trouble making, makeup using, fib telling, loophole finding, laughter making, kind hearted girl. Life would have so much less in it without her. She is the first to do something wrong and the first to tell me thank you or make me feel like a million bucks.

We love you abs!


Got a guitar and headset and loves to rock it out- until you catch her then she stops. So shy even at home with us.


All dressed up and ready for church.


So today after church we made her bday meal. All she asked for was taco salad(so easy!). Then she said she wanted to eat it in her pajamas- right on. Then she said now that I'm six I'm a big girl so I want to eat it on the couch! I love that she thinks big equals eating on the couch! Guess i've said enough times you can eat on the couch when you're big! She's our crafty loop hole finding gal too! We joke she will be the Johnny Cochran of her time! She's cleaver.

Love you

You will be missed

After a two week battle with the fastest spreading and most agressive cancer, we lost a great great man.

Papa Larry you will be missed more than I can say.

I just can't believe that 2 weeks and 2 days from being diagnosed with cancer he's gone. He was in so much pain. He is now painfree and starting an important job for the lord. I am grateful to know the atonement of our lord and savior Jesus Christ makes it possible for us to return to him. I'm even more grateful to know that we can be families for eternity. This brings comfort in our time of sorrow. I know we will see him again.

We love you Larry.


Taken mothers day just before we took him to the hospital to get help for his pain.

We love you papa Larry

We just found out brian's dad is very sick. We went out to visit. My prayer is that we can have him as long as we can. We love you papa Larry. Get out of that hospital soon!!!!
