My boy...

He’s doing good, he’s staying strong. He’s where he’s supposed to be. ♥️

Take the leap...

One of the girls’ favorite gymnastics quotes..

If you don’t leap, you’ll never know what it’s like to fly.

Baby blessing...

Clara Grace got blessed by her dad on Sunday. How exciting it was to witness such a special day. She was blessed in Halee’s baby blessing dress that her great grandma made for Halee 21 years ago. Life is good.

In love...

I’m crazy about this sweet little girl.

I might just drop dead...

If I couldn’t talk to my little bear everyday I might have a heart attack...I mean after all...I am a Grandma now. 

Do you dance?

The girls get asked that a lot. They don’t take dance but rather have worked so hard at perfecting what they learn from their coaches. Not everything has come easy. It’s taken determination, endurance, and even some tears. But whether they do gymnastics for 3 more months or 3 more years...I’ll know they’ve learned a great deal about hard work paying off.

I got to talk to my boy...

WE TALKED TO AUSTIN. Does anybody in the world even know how great this is? Because I sure as heck do. He shared some very special stories of people he’s already teaching while at the missionary training center. As he shared these spiritual experiences over the phone I realized that THIS is the very reason families can talk to their missionaries. As Austin shared these stories, I have no doubt it was a testimony booster for all of my other children. What a blessing to hear every week all the amazing things (ups and downs) of missionary work. There’s no better way to prepare my other children than by learning from their older brother.
