Ogden Temple Open House

Right before Sophie went to bed last night she said "I can't wait to go in the temple even though I'm not old enough"

What a special experience to take the kids inside the temple. They loved all the beautiful things inside. Maddie loved the sealing room and brides dressing room, Garen said his favorite was the baptismal font, and Sophie loved the ceiling in the celestial room. It was fun to have Amber and cousin Zack and Levi join us.

During our short 2 days in Utah we got to spend a few hours at Johana's house and play with Ariana and Samantha. And we got to spend some time with the Kemper cousins. So Fun!

Hogle Zoo

Such a fun and exhausting day at the zoo with friends.

More Summer Playing at the pool today

Andy and I met at the romantic setting of Walmart supercenter. After 3 months we were engaged and another 3 months we were married on July 12, 2002. Madelyn joined us less than a year later and she has been a huge blessing ever since. She was such a good baby as Andy and I struggled to finish up our schooling. I graduated with my Bachelors in Early Childhood and Severe Special Education (2005) and Andy graduated with his Bachelors in Bussiness Administrations (2006). I was able to teach for a year before our sweet little Garen joined our growing family. Sophia was an unexpected surprise, but very welcomed as she joined our family just before Christmas 2008. Now I am blessed to be a stay at home mom and enjoy watching the kids learn and grow each day. I have an amazing husband and three beautiful children that give me a little taste of heaven on earth each day-I couldn't ask for more!
