Love it........

We cruised down to St George Febuary 26th for the weekend, I had some appointments and other engagements, one being a baby shower for my dear friend April.. SO much fun!!!! (yes, I know just a bit behind posting) hee hee.... I'm okay with it, as long as I get it in my blog I'm good.... I have made it a goal in April to work on my publisher book, so that I can print out in a hard back book all the wonderful memories created,....

The collage below was a lunch date with all my "Fabulous" ladies..... My girls, my mom, my sister, and my nieces! We had a great time seeing each other and catching up! First time I'd seen my mom since Christmas so it was a little emotional and the hugs were really long.... I love those! I am blessed to have such an amazing family! The love and support is grand! Always there, we are all so close and we don't take for granted the times we can be together!

Saturday was the BIG day for April's baby shower! I was delighted to throw her this beautiful day! I love April to pieces! She has such a fantastic family, and is a great person all around! Glad I get to be a part of her life :) I am excited to meet her little boy Kai in his arrival....

Kiely and Kristine were also hostess' of the party (who I absolutely adore)... We all had a great time, the food was so delicious, the games were fun and of course watching her open all the handsome little boy gifts! I miss all you ladies,.......... I am already looking forward to coming back to visit and catch up!!!!

I say this allot, but it's SO TRUE........................Mitch and I are truly blessed to have EVERYONE we do in our life! We also got to see and hung out with some of our many close friends and as always enjoyed every minute! This is one reason why I love taking so many photo's because I love to capture all the good times we have with many of our "Phenominal" Peeps!!!!!

"Mitch and I are with Chad, Kevin, Kerry, Travis and Ambyr at Wing Nuts! SOOOO much fun, but we always seem to make our outings that way..... FUN FUN! It's the only way right.!!!

Principal Pride!

Mitch and I couldn't be MORE PROUD of our girls Kassidee and Maddison! They were given an award by their teachers and the principal at the Principal pride ceremony. This award is a big deal for the students, because not everyone gets one. The girls have only been attending this school for 3 months since our move back to SL. They have been doing phenominal! I won't lie, I was worried as a mother to see my girls trying to adjust to a new track school, new environment, teachers, kids, riding the school bus, etc... The first couple of weeks were a little rough, but they have conquered that challenge! They are doing so well in each subject being taught, they love to do homework after school and love to tell me all they learned! Both Kassidee and Maddison go out of their way in all that they do, which makes me super duper happy! Both the girls are working on their "Eagle Soaring Award" which is an extra curricular activities, given an award at the end of the year :) Keep up the great work girls, you are growing up so fast, but I am enjoying every moment of it :) I love you both very much!

Priceless............

I had fun taking these pic's of the kids! Kassidee, Maddison, Braxton and Bryton were being silly one night and if anyone know's me I love to capture anytime I can! Photo's are such great memories to cherish for life! Reminds you of all the fun and good times that we have. Also to remind you daily that we are thankful to have such amazing peeps in our life!

Gratitude is the best attitude!!

Since our move back to Salt Lake we've been staying with some "Amazing" friends. The help they are giving has no price on it. They have done so much for us and I absolutely love their family! I can't express in enough words how much we appreciate and are thankful each day for what they have done for us! The kids have become very close, and I've enjoyed spending allot of time with them all. I am being humbled right now,' I've always been a giver, and have paid it forward so recieving has been one of my difficulities, and I am realizing that it's okay to ask for help and lets others give to me!

The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention. ~Oscar Wilde

It's a Birthday "Part'aY"

Febuary was a fun month for Birthdays! One of those birthday's was my sexy babe...... Mitch has been such a blessing in my life! I've enjoyed spending his last 14 birthday's together, the girls especially love spending their time as well! Mitch is such a wonderful person all around, #1 dad for sure, amazing husband and provider, fantastic friend, and we are lucky to have him! I love celebrations, of all sorts.. Birthdays are great to spend another year of growing up! Maturing in life, becoming stonger and more succesful... Just looking back at what you've learned, accomplished and setting new goals for yourself. Of course getting together with family and friends is a perk too! We also had the honor to celebrate Nikki's and Jason's birthday's in Wendover!! Whoot Whoot.. It was a really great time, some of our dear friends came out and hung out with us!
