An Inspiration Worth Listening To.....

I remember listening to this talk a couple years ago and feeling like I could do better. Now more than ever I could do better. We as women put so much on ourselves to do, and be, and accomplish. This talk gives powerful insite to live and the purpose we should be focusing on. I hope you take the time to listen to it, or add it to your IPOD. Totally worth the feeling you get as a other, Women, or Daughter of God.

One Month

I can't believe it's been 4 weeks! I can tell that time is going to FLY with 7 schedules to keep track of! I have been SO happy with B. He is such a blessing in my life. He is SO supportive and always trying to make my life easier...my favorites are....doing dishes, helping out in the yard, reading scriptures to the kids at night! We have a long way to go together and we both want to get there. I am learning so much from him and growing more and more in love with him each day. Thank you B! :O) I LovE yOu!
(can't wait for our REAL vacation next month)

Our First Family Vacation

Day 1 was filled with the Beautiful Yellowstone and enjoying many animals and also just having fun singing songs, playing games, and seeing the beautiful earth we live in.

Day 2 was ADVENTUROUS to say the least. My Dad took us ALL over (and my mom was loving it :O) hee hee hee. Even if driving all over wasn't my mom's idea of fun...I could see her REALLY enjoying her grand kids and the fun they were having. And Tubing the River was Beautiful...we saw So many birds.

Day 3 Was SO MUCH FUN...we basically stayed close to the Cabin and painted, and colored and made Necklaces. My Dad, B and I went for a gorgeous bike ride along the river cliff...(even if all of our butts were a little sore the rest of the day) We saw a HUGE Fish which we guessed to be at least 25 lbs...at the Fishing Bridge

Day 4 was EARLY...we got up and got stuff done, but it still took us 5 hours to get on the road after making sure everything was spiffy for the next guests. And then we headed to IF to have a BBQ and Play with my family.

We had a great first holiday, and I am so grateful for a family who has loved and embraced my Hubby and his two Beautiful kids. I am so lucky to have all of you in my life!

Back to School

Bobster started 1st grade and is loving it. He said "Kindergarten is way funner, cuz' you get to have snacks, and do crafts and play...but I guess I get 3 recesses..."
Sister is in Kindergarten...she LOVES school, loves the other kids, and has already memorized most the girls names in her class and what they like.

Sa-po was SO excited all she could do was giggle herself to sleep the night before her first day as a Kindergartner.

Now that I have some "ME" time I am getting more on top of things and cleaning each room one at a time to have a nice organized house. I do love myself some ORGANIZATION!

We Got Married

MY FAVORITE PICTURE.....When B told me we were leaving on the motor cycle....I envisioned this picture of me and my dress scrunched up where you could see a garter and then us taking off on the bike. It couldn't be more perfect.

Our kids were SO good and did well considering how many pictures they were tortured with.

I am so glad to start my life with B. I don't know how he was ever not a part of my life! The kids are doing SO good...way better than expected. And the Wedding couldn't be more perfect. There was a double FULL rainbow when we were taking off on the bike, in the rain...we believe it was our sign of a life filled with Joy and Love.
