Our year!

A year ago our house looked like this and our little Braxty was in a body cast. I still cry when I see those old pictures of him and I remember how worried sick I was about him. Now he runs around crazy and I feel so blessed. I know our trials this last year are a drop in the bucket compared to what others have had to go through. I'm not complaining just reflecting on how blessed I feel today. Our house is beautiful and Braxton is healthy. Even all the drama with Cash and the pregnancy and he is just perfect. Through all the drama and changes over the past year one thing has remained the same. My Heavenly father and Jesus my brother love us so much. He has blessed us so greatly. I was so resentful of having another baby and yet he has given me my sweet little boy Cash. He is such a sweet sprit and brings so much joy to our family. WE are so blessed to belong to his church and know that life is more than just dirty diapers and dirty dishes. That we are doing his work and are a part of a bigger plan and a bigger family. I feel so much love and know that comes from My relationship with our Savior.

What a hottie!

My cute hubby got to go to the Lake Mon. with the bishop and his new boat. My friend Nicki took these pics of him i guess this was his first time wake surfing and they said he did awesome! So many talents wish we could learn how to capitalize on them.

Braxton's Quotes of the Day!

After Braxty lets out a huge fart!
MOM: Wow that was a big one!
Braxty: No mom it's like a horn beep beep! WEll more like HONK! HONK! Who's there?


While we are packing up to go camping

Braxty: I'm never going camping ever ever! I'm going to stay here and wait for my new Mom!

At dinner while camping

Austin: Thanks mom and Dad for dinner!
Braxty: Thanks mom and Dad for dinner! And thank you Braxty!
( and of course after we all laugh he had to say it like 300 hiundred more times. But I have to admit it was pretty funny every time)

Lots of new happenings!

Well I know I haven't posted in a while and we've had alot of fun events. Luke came home yeah! Cash got his blessing. It was so neat to hear what Ryan said. He told our sweet boy that he would be and example for his older brothers, he said that cash would serve a mission and be a powerful instrument in the Lords hands. I just remember feeling that he really is a special spirit and how blessed we are to have him.


We also went camping this weekend Ryan woke up that morning and decided to camp so after work we threw our stuff in the truck and went. Of course we forgot some stuff like pillows and pans to cook breakfast. It did turn out fun! The boys had a blast.





And that picture of Braxton all a mess was seriously taken like five or ten min after we got there!

Happy 4th!

We love to be here on the 4th. It is so fun to watch the parade and the fireworks are awesome. They boom off the cliff right by our house and the site is amazing! Cash had fun on his first fourth of july he slept through most of it. Braxton took a while to warm up to the fireworks. He loved the big show but the little show in the drive way was too much for him. Ryan's family came down and we spent most of the time playing rock band. It was a blast. And Cash and Cooper meet for the first time they are two weeks apart. Cooper is Ryans sister's baby.Wish you guys could have been there.

ROCK BAND ROCKS!

IT's great and sad at the same time. There is now a video game I actually love. It is totally fun! Family Home Evenings are corrupted forever! J/K

Our Yard!

My cute husband has been working so hard to give us a nice yard this summer. He dug and leveled and seeded and watered and finally our kids can now play on it. Yeah! SO this is them running through the sprinklers of their first yard!
