Sledding







We went sledding on Saturday with the Beecrofts and Fowlers. We all had a great time. Well, everyone but Brynley that is! Brynley doesn't like to be cold and didn't think that sledding was such a great idea. I caught a smile on her face when she went down the hill with Bailey though. At the end of the day I wasn't sure if the adults or the kids had more fun!

Merry Christmas


I love this time of year! I love the food, the parties, spending time with our families, but most importantly I love reflecting on the birth of our Savior.

Yesterday as I was sitting in primary watching the kids act out the birth of Christ I felt so emotional. As I thought about what it must have been like for Mary to give birth to her precious son in a barn and lay him to rest in a manger it was hard to fight back the tears. I thought about the innocence of the children who were acting as Mary and Joseph and it seemed so right to have children acting in their behalf.

I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have that the Savior truly came to this World. He was born into the most humble circumstances and he died in the most humble circumstances. I love Him and am grateful for Him and the hope that he brings to each of us!


I hope that you all have a very Merry Christmas!

Christmas Party with friends

Ali, Jenny and I

Doesn't Jenny look amazing after having twins?

Handsome Hubby and I


All the girls



My cute friend Jenny had a Christmas party at her house with some friends from high school last night. We made yummy homemade pizzas, chatted and played a game called Rate Your Mate. It was fun to see everyone. It still seems so weird that we are all grown up and have kids now! Time flies by!
