David is an Eagle

Celebrating with David. He received his Eagle Scout Award on

March 12, 2011

Now Seth can follow in his footsteps as he begins his journey as a Cub Scout.

David had wonderful big brothers to follow as he made his way to Eagle. Glad Jacob could share the day with him.
Representative and friend Allen Clemmons was the speaker at the ceremony.
David and his friend Cory Glover shared the day as they received their Eagles.
So grateful for all the wonderful things Boy Scouts has taught my boys.
Nice to have all 4 of my boys accomplish this goal.
Thankful for Grand leaders like Brother Jordan.

Rain, Rain come our way...Twins are ready

Kaitlyn and Natalie loved their birthday umbrellas and rain boots. They tried them out as we walked through the outlet and even outside in the sunshine. They were so cute!

We had such a fun weekend.

Sweet smiles in their birthday Tiaras and princess nightgowns.

All ready for church on Sunday morning.

January Birthdays

This month has moved right along and we have already had 2 birthdays in our family. Will turned 23 on Jan. 19th. I visited him a couple of days before his day and left him a little Red surprise but I am still waiting on him to come and visit so he can have his birthday dinner. Rob's birthday was on Jan. 25 and we are looking forward to celebrating with him this weekend. I picked out a manly gift and he got to pick the Sunday dinner but I am thinking....a Princess Pink and Purple Party will be just the fancy we need for my Grand Twins- Kaitlyn and Natalie who will turn 4 on Sunday, Jan. 30. I love to have parties and celebrate birthdays. I am glad they come around every year! Come back soon to see photos.

Happy New year stars

I loved watching Natalie, Kaitlyn and Carolyn decorate cookies for our New Year's celebration. They loved the Happy New Year crowns too!

A new year

I always look forward to a new year. A great opportunity to reflect on the past and prepare for the future. I am so grateful for all the blessings in my life and all the experiences that have brought me to where I am today. I love to set goals and New years resolutions. It is always an opportunity to be a little better than I was the year before. To reflect on mistakes and resolve to go forward choosing the right and relying on the spirit to lead and guide me. I filled my 2011 calender with all the necessary scheduled responsibilites that I will have to do and looked at all the empty spaces that will be for you to come for fun days and weekends. We love all the family and friends that visit us each year at the beach and we hope that if you are reading this that you are either my family or my friend and I am grateful for the bright spot you are in my life.
Looking forward to seeing all of you and sharing a great year of love and happiness.
