My photo
Every morning I wake up with a head full of things to do. I scramble around trying to put them in lists of importance all while trying to keep the peace within my little brood (trying to recall everything I've learned and read about parenting at the same time.) I love being a wife and the quirks that come with having my man forever. I love to be creative and thrive on crossing off my to do list. I strive to find balance and put first things first which brings me PEACE & JOY and allows me to sleep so much easier when I do. I think that one of the secrets to being HAPPY in life is to find that balance. I'm learning how to be kinder to myself and learning patience in progress. Everyday, through the thick and thin of life I'm trying to turn my heart towards heaven and remember what's really important.Oh, and I love to eat, so much so that I love to exercise too.

Back to School

















The boys are ready.

New shoes.
New clothes.
Haircuts by mom.
They made school year goals.
Learned how to make a first good impression.
Their daddy gave them blessings.

I tucked the boys into bed last night, asked them what they thought about their blessings.
"I almost started to cry."

"Did you feel the Holy Ghost.?"

"Yeah, a lot."

He gave me a blessing too.
Their daddy was crying.
It was beautiful.
Just what I needed to hear.
I love my boys.
and
I
REALLY
LOVE
their Daddy.

    I'm with you. The sound of silence in my house today makes me want to jump for joy, but I do miss them too. However, I do not miss the constant fighting that went on during the entire week leading up to school.

    These are such great pictures. I love the two of them just being boys! They're adorable!!
