A Forever Family!

On Thanksgiving Weekend, Nov. 29th, our little family was sealed together forever in the Twin Falls, ID Temple! What a glorious day it was! To see my two beautiful children all dressed in white, and to look across and see my husband kneeling there as we were sealed, was almost too much for my heart! It was bursting with joy! FINALLY we are a forever family! I can't thank God enough for His bounteous blessings! To have so many of our family there was so special!! Thank you, to all who could be there to witness this wonderful event! We love you!!

Happy Birthday!!

Macady's birthday was on 11/18, she had a lot of fun! It's hard to believe that she is 3 all ready! My little girl is growing up! BTW she LOVES cake!

Carving Pumpkins

Unfortunately this was our first year carving pumpkins....and the kids loved it! I say unfortunately because I wish we would have done this before. Grandma Candace grew some HUGE pumpkins in her garden this year and we had fun cleaning them out!

Halloween

Since I started this blog after Halloween, I want to take a few minutes and show off my kids! Jaxon was obviously a Pirate and Macady was a "mystical witch". They were so darn cute! Almost as cute as their Grandma Candace!!

Hippo Woes

Every day I fall deeper in love with my kids!! Jaxon and Macady were being pretty rambunctious tonight, when Jax misjudged a corner and slammed right into it! He came running over to me and cried "Mommy, I just hurt my Hippo, my hippo hurts!" I'm pretty sure he was talking about his hip-bone. Its sad that he hurt himself, but how adoreable!

Preparation......

As the days tick by and our Temple day draws closer, I am constantly reminded of the goodness of our Savior. The love He must have for each one of us is sometimes astonishing to me, and I will forever be grateful for the chance we have to repent. I am trying to teach my kids the importance of being reverent in the Temple! I am a little concerned that they will cause a ruckus and be difficult for the patrons to handle, but I know that God will bless us on that beautiful day! My dreams are finally coming true, and I know the blessings that await us if we remain faithful will surmount anything I have ever dreamed.......

My Oh My!!

My first time ever trying a blog. I saw Karen Robins blog and thought, "I should try that!" So here I am, trying it! We'll see how this goes so bear with me! I think this will be a lot of fun, if I can figure out how to work it right! :)
