McKay is Growing Up Way Too Fast . . .


My parents found this cute jeep at a garage sale a couple years ago and McKay pointed out to us that he is big enough to ride it by himself. He used to have to ride with someone. Wow, he is really getting to be a big boy.

McKay loves the new pool we got. He loves being in water and outside.

What a sweet little boy.

Are you having fun McKay?

One strong little guy.

I Have the Greatest Mother in the Whole World . . .


I am so proud of my mother and I want her to know how much I love and appreciate her. She has always been such a positive influence in my life. She loves the Lord and the Gospel and radiates such a spark from her knowledge of the scriptures, dedication to temple work, and acts of service. She is the kindest person you will ever meet. She has a great love for people and shows charity to all. She loves everyone she comes in contact with and they love her right back. She is so good to me and my family. Where would we be without wonderful mothers in our lives? It was so fun to have my parents over for Mother's Day. They are great people.

Happy Mother's Day . . .


My loving husband gave me these beautiful flowers for Mother's Day. He is such a wonderful husband and father and I love him very much.

I had a wonderful Mother's Day and enjoyed being with my family. I love being a mother to our sweet son McKay. He is the light of my life and I love him so much. I enjoy the foster girls that live with us, they are good girls.

Happy Easter to my Wonderful Family and Friends . . .


On Easter we enjoyed: playing with the singing duck,

new Easter clothes for Church,

a fun Easter egg hunt,

a basket full of toys and goodies,

and a fun scavenger hunt.
On this special Easter Sunday, I want to thank my wonderful family and friends for being such good examples to me. Where we would be without the knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ? We are so blessed to be able to celebrate Easter and our Savior's resurrection. We have had several days of rain, and then we woke up this beautiful Easter morning to sunshine. What a glorious day for all of us? Church was amazing today, the talks were so appropriate.
I have a wonderful husband and I love him dearly. He is a fantastic husband and father. I love our son McKay and am very proud of him. I am also thankful to be sharing our lives with three foster girls. I have a lot of wonderful pictures of them, however, I am unable to post them on my blog. They are great girls and are enjoying being a part of our family. This was the first time they celebrated Easter, so we made it extra special for everyone.
I also have wonderful parents and appreciate all they do for my family. They gave me life and I will always be grateful to them and their unconditional love for me.

I Love These Two Guys . . .


Steven, McKay and I and our three girls went to the park on Saturday evening. We had a picnic and the kids enjoyed jumping, climbing, etc. The sunset was gorgeous so I had to take a picture of Steven and McKay at the end of the evening.

Happy St. Patrick's Day . . .






I love celebrating holidays at our house. I made a fun St. Patrick's Day breakfast for McKay and the girls and everyone wore green today. McKay looked so cute in my St. Patrick's Day hat, he enjoyed wearing it most of the day.
