Watch this video!

This was a very touching video! My little Ashlyn is constantly asking when she can get out of her car seat (booster) and I will not budge because I worry so much about anything happening. I hope that all of you are putting you kids in their car seats ALL the time becuase no fit or anything else is worth losing them!

Beautiful Poem

My aunt emailed me this neat poem & I loved it so much that I wanted to post it on my blog.

People are often unreasonable, irrational, and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some unfaithful friends and some genuine enemies. Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere people may deceive you.
Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years creating, others could destroy overnight.
Create anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, some may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, will often be forgotten.
Do good anyway.
Give the best you have, and it will never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
In the final analysis, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.

The Hut






My little girls made a hut between their beds the other night to sleep in with a ton of their dolls & stuffed animals. I said okay because I remember loving to do things like that. Well Kaylee lasted about 10 minutes (if that) and Ashlyn actually fell asleep for about an hour and then woke up & was quite stressed because she couldn't figure out where she was. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Beautiful pictures of President Monson

Kaylee's Drawing & Ashlyn's Drawing
I love conference weekend. I feel like the Spirit is so strong in my home as my family & I listen to the beautiful words that are spoken. This conference was the first time that I made my kids be in the same room & listen for both days. I sat a table up & printed off a conference packet (thanks Kristen Klinger) and my girls loved it. Yes, they did get antsy at certain points, but they did really well for their first time. On Sunday Josh gave all 3 girls a pedicure. It was so cute. I wish I would have taken pictures but I was busy scrapbooking & listening to the talks. In the conference packet it had you draw a picture of our new prophet & I loved the pictures my little girls drew so I had to share them.

Conference Weekend

It has become a tradition for the girls on Josh's side of the family to do dinner on conference weekend when all the men are at priesthood. This year we went to Ernestos. We had a great time spending time with the girls of the family!

Jayden @ Young Womens



This Tuesday we took our young women to Bridal Elegance. It is so neat because they talk to them about modesty and LDS standards. They also teach the girls about the different cuts of dresses & then each girl got to try on one dress. Jayden loved this so much, it was fun to watch her.
