Mommy's Day!




Today was Mommy's Day at Bradley's preschool. I had a great time seeing Bradley's classroom and having a snack. I had to paint him in his halloween costume and He loved that! So sad to think my baby is in his last year of preschol. He's growing up fast.

My future football players!




We love football at our house! Zach and Brad spend hours outside every day playing football together. They can never decide which team they want to be SO they mix it all up. They LOVE to wear daddy's UH helmet.

Trevor's Birth


I flew to Las Vegas last night to be with Becky for the delivery of her second child. I have delivered 4 of my own, but have never seen a birth as an outsider looking in. What an experience!!! I loved being there and seeing Trevor take his first breathe! The begining of a new life is truly a miracle! It meant a lot to me to be with my sister during a special time in her life. I truly look at my own children as my miracles and have a greater appreciation for the ability to carry and bear children.
There is nothing greater to witness than that of a new person coming into this world! Who can deny the existence of God?
To live in a society where motherhood and the family unit is being questioned, I realized today, more than ever, the importance of a family unit where there is a mother and father, male and female, who love one another and come together to create life. There is no greater gift one can give another than opening ones heart and body to the creating of life!
Welcome Baby Trevor!

Kailee has always wanted to learn how to sew. I have two sewing machines BUT I don't know how to sew. I have tried and tried, that's one talent I would like to develop.

Kailee makes her own doll clothes and sews for her build-a-bear. She wants to be a fashion designer when she gets older and design modest clothes. As of now, that's one less struggle! So proud of her!!!

Thanks Grams for spending time with Kailee and helping her develop her love of sewing!

Wonderful Husband



Well, when we bought our California home last year we knew it needed lots of work. I was nervous about how long it would take and how we could start getting workers in to complete our many projects. One afternoon Clinton told me, "Don't worry honey, I plan on doing all the work myself!" I really started to worry then! Well, I am proud to say I have no more worries. Clinton just finished our floors and surprised me by taking out our lame hall closet and put in cabinets and a countertop so I would have more storage.
He is more talented than I thought. Honey, you are the man!!! Carry on the next project, my bathrooms, you have my approval!!!

Zach's 6th Birthday

Zach really wanted to go to Legoland for his birthday. He loved seeing all the legos and walked around the park with the biggest smile on his face. What a great day!
