Snow Days!! Dec. 13th and 14th

Well, we finally got some snow here in Washington! In fact right now its only 27 degrees out! Can you believe it? I can't!
Here are some pictures of Makenzie out in this beautiful weather...Here's her getting ready to out...
For the first couple of minutes she seemed to be ok...

Then she wasn't... she wanted to go back inside! But, with a little convincing she started to have some fun!Here are our cars all covered in snow! Snow has a way of making the most ordinary things seem beautiful..it doesn't help my trigger finger..hahaI LOVE THE SNOW! I am so excited it came... Last night was our ward Live Nativity and it started to snow as the production started! It was an amazing moment that we all experienced... My job was to introduce and thank everyone for coming while doing so after the scene was over I couldn't help but cry and thank our Heavenly Father for His Only Begotten Son, and for this special day we are making plan to celebrate! I love this gospel...Christmas is a special time that anyone and everyone can believe in, no matter what religion you are! I can't help but tear up!

This is my favorite picture of this amazing day!
You can see her hesitant attitude towards the snow..I love it! haha

My Birthday Day Gift 2008

Look what my AMAZING husband made me for my birthday!

HE MADE IT!!
My husband is the most wonderful man in the whole entire world... I am sure every woman thinks that about their hubby, I just wanted to make sure everyone knew that about mine! If you love your husband as much as I do, I think you should do something extremely special for him today. Why today? Why not today? DO IT!

Our Trip to Utah.. :)


On December 4th the family and I packed up and got on a airplane to Utah, I had no idea what to expect from this little adventure! I wasn't prepared for the time we had...In a good way! I learned a lot about myself and my family that I wasn't sure if I was ready to hear. I am so grateful that I was able to take this mini vacation! We stayed with dear friends Lynda and Brett. I don't think my husband has been so happy to see a good friend...well, ever. Makenzie took to them like no bodies business. She loved being there and didn't want to leave! It was sweet when sitting at the dinner table talking about anything and everything, to see Makenzie blowing kisses to the other side of the table like she'd known them for a life time!



I loved being in Utah for my 4 year anniversary of my baptism. It was amazing to stand in the Conference Center where I had watched from my living room 4 years ago, and knew the church was TRUE!

We also had a wonderful time going through the Temple! It was BEAUTIFUL! I am so blessed to know of the truth and knowledge that one can receive from the Temple! I pray that I can only resemble the kind of beauty in my life style and choices if that makes sense.

I am eternally grateful for the experience I was given in Utah!!! I couldn't have done it without our dear Friends!! We are so happy!! Thank you!

29 & 30


I am so sad that November is over! This task of giving grateful things everyday has really given me an excuse to write a whole bunch and give my opinion on things. I am grateful for that... I love to speak my mind A LOT!!

29. Lists, I love making lists! With out them I would get so lost! I am a total list maker! I don't think there is a whole lot I can say about them I just really enjoy making them and seeing each item get checked off, there's nothing like feeling like I have made something happen when some days I feel so lousy and lazy! I love them!

30. I feel like I have to make this one so spectacular because it is the last one of the month, but I truly think that all of them have been pretty dang good! And to tell the truth I am having a very hard time thinking of something fabulous! I think I am just so grateful for this past month and all the blessing there in. I have had many many many prayer been answered from as little as shirts I can feel confident in to as big as when and why we need to take a trip to Utah. I have loved the adventure this past month has taken me on, and am excited to see what these next few have in store! I love this gospel and everything that comes with it! Have a wonderful December...
