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.

Halloween '09


Trick or treat! This year I made costumes. It was so much fun and I think they turned out WAY better than anything you can buy in a store.



Aaron carved a pumpkin for each girl.


Mandi gave Jacob this outfit so he got to be a baseball player.


Olivia got to be a hot air balloonist. She LOVED her costume. She thought it was the greatest. I admit I thought her and Makell's costumes were the best out of their entire school. I could be biased though-- naw, I'm right.



Joci was a scuba diver. How cute is that?!



Makell was a black widow. So awesome! Everyone loved her costume at school too. My mom made a black widow costume for me when I was little and I thought I'd carry on the tradition.
I did her hair like a spiderweb. It did take a long time but she was surprisingly patient.

We quickly threw Macey's gumball costume together. I sewed an old shirt up, added some pink striped tights and Aaron drew on the Dubble Bubble. She stayed nice and warm while trick or treating. People could not stop looking and commenting on all the costumes. It was so much fun.
