We had such a great time on our Memorial day hike with the Amakasu and Flower families. We hiked quite the route up and around to Ghost Falls. It was such a great hike and all the kiddos made it! I couldn't believe even the little boys all hiked! What a great way to spend one of our last days in Draper! We love you Amakasu's and Flowers!

Mommy Daughter Activity

Ellerie and I enjoyed our Mommy/Daughter Activity night right before we moved. It was a pajama party with lots of fun activites. Bling strands in the hair, nails painted, hair flowers, karaoke and yummy treats! We had such a fun time!

Garage Sale!!!

I still don't know where all this "stuff" came from

but I'm so happy it's over with and out of here!

It feels great to get so much lighter.

Thanks to family and friends for all your help

you are truly the best!!!

Beautiful Smile!!!

Kaden's braces came off today!!!
It was so exciting! He looks so grown up to me now.

Where does the time go and why do I have teenagers? ha ha

You are a HANDSOME young man Kaden!

Par for the course!

So in our 16 years of marriage anytime Chad has had to travel or go away for work there is always things that go skeewampis! Like the time he traveled to Bahrain for 3 weeks (Kaden and Garrett were just little) and the day after he left, Garrett broke out with chickenpox.

I 've decided this time around maybe I should blog about what has become COMICAL to me (it wasn't always this funny but these days I just expect the unexpected)

Wednesday of this week or say...

Day 1- Take Garrett in for a Dr. appointment...discover he has a inguinal hernia that will need to be operated on NEXT WEEK~

Day 2- Power goes out and ALL the fire alarms in the house are BLARRING for nearly 30 min. No, the house was not on fire but I couldn't get them to turn off. Finally the power came back on and the alarms went silent :)

I'm sure we'll have mostly normal days but when fun stuff comes up you had better believe that I'm posting it on the blog! We gotta save memories somewhere right?~

Chadwick left!

Chadly left today and YES...I cried like a baby!

I know 6 weeks isn't very long but

I WUV MY HUBBY and will MISS him terribly :'(

Trip to Dallas

Chad and I went to Dallas house hunting...look at this cute rental house we found :)
It's perfect! We truly felt led right to it!
