Papa

Captured these pics the other night. She got a new robe (like mommys) and thinks she is one cool chick. She loves to hang out with my dad and ask him all kinds of questions, too cute!

Quote...

"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for sick neighbors children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."

Life gets crazy sometimes and pulls you in all different directions at the same time. But I have realized that the most important thing to do is remember who you are and never sway from that. The Lord gives us all types of challenges and trials, it is up to us how we react to them. Today I'm going to try a little harder to be a little better in all that I do.

Here are some things I am most grateful for:
-My wonderful husband who believes in me more that I believe in myself sometimes
-My precious daughter who knows exactly when I need a hug
-The opportunity that I have to go to school to reach my dreams of being a nurse
-My parents for just being them, I can't thank them enough for all they do for us
-My brothers who always make me smile and laugh
-My sister-in-law for always thinking of me and for the good chats we have
-Most of all for my savior Jesus Christ for the sacrifces he made for me and for my happiness.

Ky's first day of School

So the last few weeks have been pretty crazy. I started a new job as a CNA for a long term care facility. I also started school and ky did as well. Today was her first day! She goes up to the children's center on campus while im in class. She insisted on having a "rolly back pack". So here she is sporting her back pack and of course a pretty dress.

Family Pics

So I got a kick out of this. We were only trying to take a nice family picture OUTSIDE in windy wyoming. This is what you get!!!

My Brother!!

Marc came home from his mission last wednesday! We picked him up from the Rock Springs airport! The airport was an exciting experience. It is probably as big as a house and there is one terminal. The lady that checks in also is in charge of everything else. It was so awesome to have the whole family together. And it has been nothing but fun having Marc home.
