We had our Relief Society Birthday Party last night.

~Salad
~Rolls

We invited this amazing man to come and speak to us.
Dr. Paul Jenkins

He reminded us of our great worth.
He told us no matter what we do, we are loved unconditionally by a Heavenly Father,
who created us, who made us just the way we are.
Perfection is a concept, not a place.
He counseled us to move in the direction of perfection and to measure our progress from where we were, not where we are going.
I love this man, and what he stands for.
It was a good night.



Alexis has been a sewing maniac lately. She made these cute outfits for Shelby and hopes to sell some on Etsy. She spends all her own money on fabric so she can create the images floating around in her head. It's all she can eat,drink, and sleep about. I'm happy she's found her passion.



My little man is already Five Months Old! Where does the time go?? I try and soak up all of his little baby sweetness, knowing this is my last :(


I'm loving the springish weather and so are the kids. Zach and Shelbs were out playing on the swingset. They were laughing & giggling as Shelby was twirling around and around. She kept saying she was going down the toilet...oh to be a kid again......


I finally started working out this week.
I woke up at 4:30 a.m., fed the baby and headed to the gym.
As I was almost there I get a phone call from Clint.
Baby sad, come home.
Uhh, no just let him cry, he'll go back to sleep.
He cried for 30 mins. and then slept.
10 mins. later Shelby comes upstairs crying.
Finally falls asleep. Now it was Zach's turn.
I get home from the Gym, Clint's asleep in the Living Room.
Shelby sleeping in the family room.
Luke's in our bed.
Rough morning.
Clint said the kids just sensed I was gone....hmmm. (opposition in ALL things)
Thanks for putting up with the kids, babe. It will get easier.....I hope.

Wow Alexis is amazing, those clothes are so cute. I hope my girls will learn to sew. Zack sewed his pillow case and bag at school, I was pretty impressed but I don't think he will make a career out of it!

Love the pictures of the warm weather, I can't wait for more.

I bet it felt so good to workout, I hear a half marathon calling your name!
