One year towards Eternity!

Sunday we celebrated...well we didn't really celebrate because it was Sunday, but we "remembered" our one year of being sealed together in the Manti Temple. It was a great day and I can't wait to go back to the Manti Temple.  It is certainly "our" Temple. 

Afterwards we went to Los Hermanos for dinner.  We were STARVING! We met some members of our family there to hang out and eat.

Party in the house!


I "showed Shon how to make a cake and cupcakes".  Don't be fooled, I really did do all the cookin!
In the meantime, Grandma took Jordan for his trip to Build a Bear.  He chose a puppy with a little football outfit and helmet.
And they make it very well known that it is YOUR birthday!
Jordan's Birthday Cupcakes
David's Birthday Cupcakes
And the "adult" cake since we let the kids have the cupcakes.

All in all the party turned out ok and my boys came out with a lot more toys than I am sure we have room for.  But we all had fun together as a family.  The boys were able to see their sisters, so they were really excited! And so were the girls!

Ice cream, ice cream, we all scream for ice cream!

Jordan's "birthday" ice cream. We pretty much just handed it to him and let him have a blast!



Double fisting it!

Things I would like my boys to know...

*Life is hard but that doesn't mean they need to give up.
*Family is everything
*You don't always have to do what others tell you, but you do have to listen to what they tell you.
*I don't expect you to be perfect but I do expect you to try hard
*Always make a friend with someone that may not have a friend
*The church is true
*I love them more than anything and that is all that matters.

Jordan is TWO!!!

So I think I can honestly say I never thought I would be a mommy of a two year old. It took some time and some patience...and well, frankly it is still taking time and patience. But I have a two year old and a cute two year old at that. I am happy to call him my very own, even though it ain't legal yet. But we are thinking positively. So Happy Birthday Jordan! We love you more and more everyday. Stay cute and SMART!

My new hobbies...

I started some of these hobbies about a year ago. Then I stopped. I recently decided to (a) finish what I started and (b) to continue on with making cute things for myself, my family and my home.

The first...No I DID NOT make this. But I am going to attempt to make some aprons.
The second thing was Ashton's Transformer blanket that I finished up last night. We are also going to make some oven mits that sounds really easy to make!

Alnog with that I have also been trying some new recipes at home. Shon has sorta been a trooper. I definately have some tweaking to do on some of them.

So here's to home-makin!




Happy Birthday to David!

Today David is 5 years old! I wish I could say the time has passed fast, but obviously it has not. Grandma took him to build a bear and he made an "Alvin" from there. He was so excited! I brought cupcakes in to his classroom to share with his class. He came home with a crown for his birthday from school. This past weekend, their Aunt Brittany and Uncle Matt took them out to get some pictures since I have like no pictures of them and would love to add them to my wall! Here is what we got. Thanks to Britt and Matt! Happy Birthday Dave...we love you and look forward to MANY more birthdays with you in the future!
