July 6th is a day in the book to remember. Happy wedding day to Mitch and Collette! It was a beautiful event and lovely day.
A is for Adam! And Aggies... which I may be trying to engrain in him already.
Maddy and the kids and I took a day trip to Logan to walk the campus and visit the town. Wow have things changed! I'm only a little jealous that the new gym and updated facilities weren't there 10 years ago.
Cheese!
This is what you get when Eden has the phone and pulls a selfie. Photo bomb by mom and dad!
We were lucky enough to spend a couple days in Park City on the Mountain playing in the pool and going down the slide and coaster. Go Eden!
This is a big deal.
The basement got remodeled and the entire house regained a new spirit, smell, look, and life overnight. We did a great job painting, if I say so myself and Lindsey has the touch of a decorator.
Balloons! Hot ones!
We are so lucky that Sandy threw a hot air balloon festival. It was worth waking the kids up for and fun to see them blow up the balloons and take off.
(Adam gets awesome bed head.
This is his, "why did mom wake me up so early face.")
Snapshots of my kids growing up: bigger car seats, new kicks, and a good looking haircut by yours truly.
This is all we see of Adam these days: a blur. He forgot how to walk and only runs, jumps, and climbs wherever he goes.
Look at my smart girl!
Eden is practicing her letters and has started to write words.
Happy Labor Day!
This is post golfing at the driving range. Thanks to the Hodge's for letting us swim with them at the neighbor's. Eden was pretty excited she could touch the bottom :)
Smile for mom!
Eden is just the sweetest and that's my Adam- smiling so big his cheeks turn into balls and his eyes are squinty. He is my Jack baby and has moments where he looks just like Grandpa (Joseph) Jack.
Life is full of happy moments, but we undeniably have fought through the thick of despair this past year too. Though life can seem so hopeless and grim at times, I believe that we will look back and see miracles and remember these little things that brought so much joy. Family is everything.
I'm happy to say that Austin started a job two weeks ago is arising as a conqueror of major depression- no small feat.
Having the knowledge of God's plan and having faith in my Savior, Jesus Christ has been the saving string of light and comfort. We are still just coming out of our tunnel of darkness, but I can testify because of Jesus Christ everything will be more than okay; it will be better than we can imagine.
