Our Little Princess Turns Four!

I have loved every second with this precious baby girl, she has been a delight. We invited 10 little girls to her princess fairy party because she gets along with everyone so well. I love spending time with her, she is fabulous at thank you and I love you. I was leaving this morning to take the boys to school and she had to kiss both my cheeks and give me a hug first. I only got one girl, how grateful I am it was Olivia!

JOY!

I had the chance to speak in Young Womens about finding Joy in life. I have been blessed with the ability to overcome the adversary and adversity and turn negative events into positive happenings. I truly love life! I know that life deals some pretty hard knocks, but if we search, we find something for which to be grateful.

My family brings me great joy! I know it sounds cheesy and unrealistic, but I am best friends with my sisters, my brother and his wife, my parents, my kids, my husband, and in-laws. I would rather play with my family than anyone else. The Gospel makes me happy. I love the peace the knowledge of the Savior and the atonement give. I can't imagine life without this gift. I know I am getting old, its hard to accept, but having a healthy body that still lets me be outside enjoying nature rocks. This week I was able to run up suncrest on a gorgeous sunny day and then a few days later go skiing with Brig on another amazing day, could life get any better?

Happy Birthday Charlie!

How can I describe our Charlie? Our passion child is truly a passionate child! My sister Whitney told Charlie he was her favorite nephew, a fact he did not keep secret. But he is really hard not to adore! Char was born with a sense of humor. He is a social butterfly and has made some great friend in his first grade class. He is realizing he is not 11 years old and he can play with kids his own age. The other day we were shopping and he borrowed my cell phone to chat with his budddies.

My Dad took he and his cousin Christopher to a BYU Basketball game. We had a great time! Thanks Dad. Charlie loves anything to do with BYU. For his Birthday party we went to the Bean Museum ton campus to check out the "creepy" animals and then to the creamery for ice cream. It was awesome! We love you Charlie.
