"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."

New Year!!








For New Years Eve we invited some friends over for some tinfoil dinner, smores and fireworks. It was so much fun (although I was dead tired by the end of the night!) The kids (mostly the big boys) had fun with the fireworks. It was a fun way to end a fun year!





( My third attempt at getting the photos the right direction, I give up!)


On the 29th we found out we are having another little girl. I must say I was surprised. I thought for sure I had another little guy floating around inside of me. I am super excited for another girl though. I can't wait to meet her! (since she wouldn't let us peek at her face!)

This year will be a good one! I am so grateful to be going into this new year knowing that we are adding one more crazy to our little family!!

I love that picture of your little baby girl so much, what a keepsake!

And girl, you sleep now because it just isn't going to happen after number 3! But it's fun too, happy & fun & exhausting!
