HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!!!!

Mother's Day this year was fantastic-thanks to my wonderful husband and kiddos. I am so lucky to have them in my life. Jake suprised me with some gorgeous diamond earrings-I am so spoiled and my little kiddos decorated plates with their cute little hand prints (thanks to the help of their awesome daddy). It was a great day!!! I am so glad I got to spend it with them-they are the greatest.

SATURDAY AT THE TREEHOUSE!!!

Peek-a-boo!!!

Audrey just wants to be like the boys!

Fireman-or President- depends on the day!!

Audrey-our little musician!!

Kristi and Braxton (and Caiden) came with us-we had a fantastic time!!!!!

Carter is our future fireman-he has never had so much fun!!!

SERIOUSLY,....... SO BLESSED!!!

I know that we all make fun of the blog with this title, but there really are not any other words to adequately describe how I feel. Our family has been so incredibly blessed and we are so happy. Jake has recovered miraculously well from his "stairs" incident-thanks to all of his hard work and perserverence. He is the greatest husband and dad in the world. He is continually doing stuff for our family-I don't know what I would do without him. Carter is a full blown 2 year old with occasional melt downs and temper tantrums, but we couldn't ask for a better boy or big brother. He loves to play outside......and is such a big helper. Audrey is our little princess. She has grown up so fast and has the funniest personality. She already knows how to role her eyes at her daddy....talk about an attitude. We couldn't ask for better kids. They keep us on our toes and keep us laughing. Our family has continued to be blessed with Baby #3 coming to join our family somtime in December. We are excited and aren't going to find out what we are having-we need some sort of suprise with this baby. Carter is excited for the baby-he kisses my stomach everyday and says "hi baby" and Jake has already stepped up and is doing a ton to help me. So...we seriously are so blessed.

ST. GEORGE 2009!!!

We had such a great trip to St. George this last weekend.

It is so much fun to take time to do stuff as a family.

On our way home we drove through Zion's National Park.

Audrey was not so sure about the fountain

Carter loved running all around in the fountain at the Art Festival.
He thought it was great to get wet!!!

Having fun at the Temple!!!!

Carter, Dad and Audrey

Carter kept wanting to go in the temple so he finally settled for a picture on the stairs

St. George Temple

I'm ready!!!!

I'm not awake yet......this is too early to be leaving on vacation.

Audrey is 1!!!!!!!

What a difference a year makes. Audrey made her appearance a little early on March 12, 2008. What a great year it has been. She has gotten so big and is so much fun to have in our family. We love her so much with her curly hair, toothy grin, and silly smile.

We love you Audrey-Happy Birthday

Our little girl is growing up.

Audrey got her ears pierced!!!

(and didn't even cry)
