"In our search to obtain relief from the stresses of life, may we earnestly seek ways to simplify our lives. May we comply with the inspired counsel and direction the Lord has given us in the great plan of happiness. May we be worthy to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost and follow the guidance of the Spirit as we navigate this mortal journey. May we prepare ourselves to accomplish the ultimate purpose of this mortal test- to return and live with our Heavenly Father."

Fun with the parents

Pictures are not in any order.
My parents came to visit us for a week.  It was so fun having them here and we packed the week full of fun stuff!
The last night they were here we went to this fun place! It's the 3rd year that we've been and I think it gets better every time. Although this year no coats were needed so it was kind of weird.



One of the days we drove down to Galveston and spent the day.  It's always fun to be able to play on the beach in the middle of December in shorts!



Chad wears his shirt proudly (It was a birthday presant from me!)


Eating at the Rainforest Cafe.  Annie loved the tables!
Smiling at Grandpa

This picture cracks me up.  It looks like she's plotting something evil.
Carly was so excited to give Grandma and Grandpa some Christmas presants.









While waiting in line for Santa there was an Elf that was reading from the naughty and nice list.  Unfortunately I was put on the naughty list. 
Sam and Carly got to sing some Christmas songs up on stage.  They loved it!
