About Me

I'm a mother of four girls and one boy and I've got the greatest husband in the world-and I'd bet the farm on that one. We're a great team although he says he's moving out of the house as soon as all our girls are teenagers. We're very strong in our religion which is in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I draw strength from my religion and my family. I love life and am grateful to be surrounded by such great family and friends. I am gently reminded daily of the love and blessings that our Heavenly Father has for us. I live the life I always dreamed of having. I don't know how I was so blessed. Sometimes I feel undeserving to have the perfect life I always wanted. But I'm not complaining! I'm the luckiest girl in the world. Life goes up and life goes down, but even during the lowest so far, I'm still happy. Still know that I will have my family forever. Still know that my husband adores me and I him. Life is so good.

Christmas Morning 2008

Here we are showing off our loot.








Our kids slept in until about 7:30 as usual. They were so excited when they saw all the presents under the tree. (Thanks to mom and dad Sharp mostly) After opening all their gifts we sent them on the traditional scavenger hunt for the 'big' present of the year. We got a Wii for that. (Thanks to Mary Ann who paid Aaron extra on a construction job he did for her) I'm sad that Christmas is over but looking forward to getting our house back to normal. Thanks to everyone who helped our family out this year. Our christmas was wonderful, we couldn't have asked for more. Hopefully we can sell all our houses and 2009 will be a bit nicer to us! We love you!!

Merry Christmas! It looks like you guys had such a great time. Sledding must have been a blast. The girls are all adorable and look like they are just loving life. I've never seen so many dolls in one place at the same time! :> We need a girl over this way so we can have a doll or two.
