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.

Olivia's 7th Birthday!

Olivia invited some of her cousins and some friends from church over for her birthday party.
They sat on the front lawn and ate cake and ice cream.


As Daddy brought the cake out for her to blow the candles out the top spire almost fell off. Great thinking Aaron!

Opening a few presents. I wonder if my nephew Campbell felt outnumbered. He's so cute! :)

They all slid on the slip-and-slide. Macey preferred drinking from it.
She looks like she should be in a homeless person's documentary. "I growed up in hard times. We drunk from the slip-and-slide when we was young and we liked it!"

As you can tell I was pretty proud of the cake I made. It took forever! She loved it though so it was completely worth it.

They all got in the hot tub.

We decorated the house for her. Her friends still ask her, now almost 7 month later, if she's gonna have a hot tub party and a princess birthday cake for her birthday this year.
