Catch Up!

Thanks to my amazing niece who reminds me to update this thing because I get so out of sync doing it and completely forget. Lots has happened since my last post. We sold the last house and now live in a much bigger house with a huge backyard we can go sledding in when its snowing or play fun games in the summer. Since we moved here, I've had a miscarriage, am now pregnant again (10 weeks along), and work at Smiths down the street. Spencer has been working with Micah starting their own business, catering events with his delicious bbq, and selling paintball stuff. Devon has started school and loves kindergarten. He also loves playing console games, read books, and play with his brother. He is such an amazing helper and takes such good care of his brother and me. He'll make us food and he helps with chores. Tommy is talking a lot more, loves playing with toys (mostly cars, trains, and balls). He can sing the alphabet, count to 20, and sings I'm a Child of God. Our family is so fun and we are so blest. I'm grateful that God is there and provides for us. I'm grateful for the atonement that we can always have a fresh start and that we always have someone to turn to with whatever is happening in our lives. Here's a couple of pics that has happened since last post...


Tommy having a blast at the Peteetneet Park.

This is in front of our new house :)

Next to our house up the canyon are beautiful hikes. This is one of my favorites. Its called the Grotto and is perfect to take the kids on.

Summerfest parade... Devon got to get his face painted.

Devon's first baseball game!



We went up Payson canyon for a little get away for Father's day.  Camped, caught fish, and enjoyed each other's company. 



Devon did Tee Ball this year. He wasn't too bad.

We live so close to the Payson Temple. It's so nice to go there and do work.

Trip up to Roosevelt. We went fishing, went to a parade, and just had a freaking blast!




We have tons of game nights. 

We went Pokemon hunting a TON!

Devon's birthday! He turned 5.

Went to Snowbird for a Wavetronix retreat. It was so fun!!



We went to the zoo, I think they had a blast.








2nd visit to Roosevelt for the summer and went to the Duchesne Carnival Thing 

This bird loved Spencer at the Duchesne thing.

Steve Christensen took our family pics. He did such an amazing job!

He looks so old. I can't believe he's in school.
