Another Brielle Masterpiece

Here is Brielle's latest and greatest song:

I love my family,
they are so sweet to me.
When I look into your eyes I imagine my mom,
When I look into my dads eyes he is happy to my mom.
Family is so special I love them so much!

This was sung to a made up tune, but like I said before, I sometimes feel like I live in a musical! Love it!

And were back!

Hello all! We just returned home from our super fun trip to Utah. We had such a great time seeing family and friends, and we miss you already! I am sad to say though that our camera broke on the trip so I have to wait for my cute sister to email me most of my pictures. This means that the trip details will have to wait until I have the picts to go with them! But, if you are dying to see my family my bestest friend Sharstin took our family picts while we were out west. You can go to her photography blog to view the photos. Check back, I will be blogging soon!

My new addiction

So, I hate to say it but I am a little addicted to the website, Craigslist. It is a site like e-bay, except that you can deal with everything locally. You just search the things for sale in your city. I have sold our TV, a dog run, formula, etc. And I love to buy things on their too! It is really nice because you never have to pay for shipping. You just meet the person because they usually live within a 15 mile radius! Of course we meet at a very public place, never our house, just for safety. So, if you havent heard of this website, check it out, you will love it!

The Best Seven Years!

It was seven years ago today that Doug and I were married in the Bountiful Temple, (pictured above). I have to say that it has literally been the best years of my life. I love Doug so much. He is an amazing man and in many ways he is my hero. He strives so hard to be better each day, and I really could not ask for anything more. He is a wonderful father too. He loves our kids more than anything, and they love him right back. You would think that the house was burning down the way they scream when he walks through the door! :)

If you would have told me seven years ago that Doug would have finished law school, become a bishop, we would be living in the South, and I would have three kids, I would have told you that you were crazy. But, here we are and I love my life. Thank you Doug for the best seven years! You are amazing and I am so grateful I am your wife! Here's to ETERNITY!

Tea Anyone?

Brielle went to a little tea (lemonade) party and our friends house the other day and was so excited to get all dressed up for a party. It was really cute! My friend had made little finger sandwiches and set place settings for each of the girls. They got to eat lunch and drink their tea, which was really lemonade, they had a fashion show, and made bracelets. It was a little girls dream! You can actually see the excitement on her face.

Breaking Dawn?

The name of this book is so fitting because I finished reading it just before dawn this morning! You other book fans may not agree, but I think this was the best out of the series! I loved it! I will not spoil it for any of you who have not read them, but lets just say you will not be disappointed. My friend Erin and I went to the book party on Friday night at Borders to get the book right at midnight. It was really funny to see how many people are addicted to these books. The only thing I could think of though is that I wish I had a talent for writing because Stephanie Meyer is set for life.
