Wow! Has it really been 2 years since my last post. hmm... Thinking of blogging again... stay tuned :)

Addison is 1

Oh my baby turned 1 last week. Can't believe how time flies. Can't imagine our family without Addison. Here are just a few pics.


Here is her personal cake before....


During.......
After....She loved her cake!!

This is the cake I made for the rest of us. :)

Talk and Prayer

Last Sunday Logan gave his first prayer in Primary. He did great. He did it all by himself and said most of the things I told him to that morning. :) Of course I couldn't take a recording of that, so you will just have to take my word for it.

Brayden gave his first talk the same week. He did amazing!! We worked on it for only three days, and he had most of it memorized. He got a bit nervous so he kept looking back at me (kneeling behind him), but he was great. So I finally recorded it today, a week later. Here it is. Of course he wasn't as figgity when he did it in primary, nor did he pick his nose. hehe

Happy Birthday Dad!

Today is Dad's Birthday, so I am missing him more today. He was such a wonderful man and a great example to his family. I love and appreciate him more and more as my kids grow. I wish he was here to see them. It is hard to believe he has been gone for 3 years. Love ya Dad.



Here is a video my Sis-in-law made shortly after his death. I love it. Give me tears every time I watch it. Enjoy my dad. :)

They are here!!!

During Christmas my whole family had a photo shoot with Amy Hill. She is in Phoenix and she is great. We have waited and waited and finally we got the CD. They are great. Each family got a few pics taken and then some of my entire family. Hope you enjoy. Let me know what you think. You can also click on Amy's name above and give her feedback.



I have them all in black and white as well. Don't know which I like better. :)

6 Months

Addison is 6 months old. Can you believe it?? I can't! It is amazing. She is getting so big and still so beautiful! I can't imagine our family without her. I still look at her and just can't believe she is here. Love her to death. I love to dress her up. She will be a girly girl! Today after her nap, I went into her room to get her and she was saying, "mamamamamamamama" I will take that as her first word. hehe She is rolling around, but still gets stuck on her stomach at times. She has found her screaming voice. Here are some pics of her.


I gave her her first bite of oatmeal cereal a couple weeks ago. She wasn't to sure about it. Didn't quit get the swallowing thing down. I will try again later.



She loves her brothers. And thankfully they love her too. They always want to kiss her and love on her. Logan is the best at getting her to laugh and smile. I love my kids. Don't know what I would do without them. So grateful to Heavenly Father for blessing me with such great kids.

5K

So I ran my first 5K yesterday. Now I use the word "ran" very lightly. ;) I jogged most and walked some. But not bad for the first time. I did it in 37 minutes. And I wasn't last!! :) And again, I put Micah in charge of taking pics and this is it!! hehe And a video you can see below of me and Anadine sprinting to the finish line. Anadine has been great. I asked her to help me train and run a half marathon. That is my ultimate goal. I hope my body can make it. Don't know what I was thinking. I always wanted to be a runner. So we are starting out slow. I will keep you all posted.
