14 years ago today...

I married my best friend!

And these 14 years have been the best years of my life... I love you!

Someone freeze time... please!

As you've seen in my previous posts... it's been "birthday season" at our house. (we are behind on birthday pictures this year. Hopefully we'll get those taken next month) They are all a year older... and it's been making Mommy a little sad! I feel like my babies are slipping through my fingers...

Now she's 11

Now she's 8

Now she's 5

Now he's 2

"I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be."

"A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for."

"Parents have the glorious opportunity of being the most powerful influence, above and beyond any other, on the new lives that bless their homes."
~ L. Tom Perry

"Your children will become what you are; so be what you want them to be." ~ David Bly

It's the simple things...

Justin and Daddy 2 years ago! LOVE his smiles!

Special Day for Tay!

Saturday, June 5th, our sweet Taylee was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! We are so very proud of her and her decision to follow our Savior.

I love this sweet picture of Taylee and her Daddy who gave her the most amazing blessing! You cannot deny the spirit that is felt on such a special day!

(please ignore my face... I was talking!)
But I LOVE my sweet family and I am Eternally grateful for them!
Taylee, we know our Father in Heaven is proud of your decision! We love you!
Thank you to all of our family and friends who came to support her. I forgot to take pictures after the fact and I am so bummed... but Thank You!

Another birthday girl!

Happy 5th Birthday!

Happy Birthday to you my little Brynnster! This is a big birthday for you... turning five means starting Kindergarten! I'll sure miss you during the day, and so will Justin! You are such a great sister and friend! Pure joy to be around! Love you so much Brynn!
