Eternity Begins Today

What a special weekend we just had for our family.  Kevin, me, and the boys were sealed together for time and all eternity in the San Diego Temple on 02/01/14.  We were surrounded by family and friends and it was such a beautiful, sacred ceremony.  Throughout the week thoughts from this day have been popping into my heading making me smile, especially the boys entering the room in their little white outfits looking so precious, I'm truly overjoyed.
Getting ready for the big day, family starts to arrive and Wyatt is just in love with baby Damon.

He loves him...

Did I mention he loves Damon...

I never see Andy smile this much in pictures, either he really is having a great day too, or he just loves cookies, probably the latter.

All the kiddies in the sand box.

It was a full house and I loved it.  Reese, Wyatt, Luke, and Sammy winding down in their new jammies from Nana.

My girlfriends who celebrated with us, Monica, Jodi, and Jill.

This is terrible, on my camera there is not one picture of my mom and dad, have to wait for the photographers photos.  Ugh, hate that, when the day is so busy you forget to take tons of pictures.

My mom stayed the week after everyone went home and we have been able to get in some good quality time.  This morning we decided to hike Torrey Pines after we dropped Wyatt off at school.
Here she is ready to go!

Exploring the beach below.

Luke was really enjoying the sand and rocks, not so into the seashells, just the rocks.  The bridge was also under construction so there was a lot of construction trucks, which he loves, and the train came by several times while we were there.  It was basically Luke's idea of heaven; beach, rocks, trucks, and trains.


2014, It's Starting Off To Be A Great Year

We started off the year with a bang, literally.  For New Year's Eve, Kevin brought home a popper gun that shot out confetti, lets just say the boys loved it.



We had plans to stay at home and enjoy the East coast celebration and that's exactly what happened, barely.  I was so tired I just made it until 9:00 pm to ring in the New Year, then off to bed!

The next day we went to Old Town with Papa James for lunch and to climb on all the pioneer stuff.  The boys love Old Town for one reason, to play, and we love it for another, the food.


Wyatt started some sports at the beginning of the year, he was excited to try soccer, which we thought he would really like because he loves to run.  Well not so much, he was upset when he found out he couldn't grab the ball.
All dressed up for his first day of soccer.

So time to move on, off to basketball.  He loves basketball and his coach, which happens to be Daddy.


I was able to jet off to Cleveland with Monica at the beginning of the year to visit baby Nora.  I'm so happy for Emily and Jim and their little miracle baby.  She is such a doll.
