Motherhood: An Eternal Partnership With God

My sweet husband sent me this video and I think he sent it at just the right time. Being a mother is not always easy, but it is the best. Sometimes as a mother you can feel overwhelmed or that you aren't doing enough. We must always remember how sacred the role of being a mother is and that we aren't in this alone. I am so thankful for our son and for my sweet husband. Being a mother is truly the greatest gift.

I Love To See The Temple

My grandma came in town from Minnesota for a visit so we took her and my mom to the Temple. It was a beautiful day for it.














The Temple is the greatest place on earth. It is Heaven on earth. I love the Spirit that I feel there everytime we go, even if it is just walking the grounds. In this noisy, bustling, competitive world, what a privilege it is to have a sacred house where we may experience the sanctifying influence of the Spirit of the Lord. I am so greatful for Temples and the work done therein.

More playing....

Wyatt and I love to play and he has such a little imagination!




We love when we get a nice lazy day to do nothing but hang out at home and play!

Mr. Potato Head

Wyatt has always had a love/hate relationship with his Mr. Potato Head. He loves it more than any other toy he has (besides his cars) but he tends to get really upset at it when it doesn't look just right. It always cracks me up seeing Wyatt play with Mr. Potato Head!

WE ARE EXPECTING!!!

Okay, so I can't hold it in anymore! We are expecting baby #2. We are sooooo thrilled! We just had an ultrasound last Saturday to see how things were going. It was so cute to see an itty bitty pea pod baby on the ultrasound and you could even see the heart beating. It's all so exciting! The baby is doing great and we are due March 2nd :-)

Going Private

Please give me your emails so I can add them to our blog. We are going private!!

4th Of July Weekend

We had a really great 4th of July weekend. On Saturday, July 3rd we went to downtown Mesa for the 4th of July Independance festival. It was a lot of fun. I have never been to it before, but it is a great place to take your kids. We enjoyed looking at some classic cars. Well, I think Andrew and Wyatt enjoyed that more than me :-)




Then, we took Wyatt to see the fire trucks, which he loved!!







Wyatt enjoyed the live music that he danced to and all the fun stuff to see. It was a really great family fun place!

Then, on Sunday July 4th after church we headed down to Central Christian Church for fireworks. In my opinion, this is the best place to see fireworks just because it is so family friendly and safe.






Wyatt enjoyed his first cotton candy!





Happy 4th of July!
