Our St. George trip for HSM

We had a fun time on our annual trip to St. George to watch a play, which the girls were excited it was High School Musical. We got there early to shop and hang out. One of the best patrs of the day was going to the Temple, where we walked aroung the grounds, and watched a wonderful new movie, The Pioneer Miracle. I am always so inspired with how the temple makes me feel and am so glad that my girls feel the spirit when they are there also. We were a little disappointed to find out that the play was in where the highschool kids do it. They did a good job.The girls really liked it.I guess it saved us from sitting in the heat outside. Sadly we were missing one of the girls, my mom, who was home sick. We missed you mom and there is always next year.Thanks Aunt Jamie for a fun day!

Happy 4th!!

Well this year we were supposed to be camping in Utah, but we had car problems, which kept us in the heat. No matter we are, we always have a blast with our family. We had yummy food and great fun. Always, the fireworks were a great ending. Thanks to both our families for hanging with us.

11 years of bliss

This weekend Marc and I celebrated our 11 year anniversay. I can't believe it has been that long. I guess time flies by when you are having fun. We went to dinner and then he took me to the Belagio to walk aroung their flower diplay, but really he went to take me to get my gift. He took me to Tiffany's to by me a ring, but they did not have my size. Marc was a little upset about it. The practical side of me came out and told him I could really use some new tennis shoes and some clothes instead. Marc didn't want me to be practical though. We had a really good night together. We even went to my favorite ice cream place, yum! I just want to tell Marc how much I love him and am so grateful he is mine for eternity. He is so good to me and our kids. He truely is my gift from God. Thanks for 11 sweet years!!

Shhh

So this is what I came down to this afternoon while upstairs. Not 1, not 2, but 3 sleeping kids. My house is so quiet. Morgan is the only one who is not asleep. She told me she is way to old for naps. I thought I would give it a try though. There is nothing better then a sleeping kid. I guess kids can sleep anywhere, seeing how Loryn is sleeping. Yes , I realize that wasn't very safe either. Maybe I shouldn't be doing laundry, ha ha.

I lost some weight!!!

So yesterday I thought I would change it up for Marc for our 11 year anniversary. Boy did I surprise him. I lost 9 inches. To bad real wieght loss wasn't as fast as this was. I am still sad about the loss of all my hair, but hey it is alot cooler. Sometimes you just need a change and I guess I was at that time. I am not quite sure Marc was though. I guess life is full of surprises.

So today Mason and Loryn decided to cure their boredom. Mason decided he would paint his toenails pretty so he could show is big sisters his great work. Instead he was so embarrassed because the girls told him only girls paint their toenails. He told me he wanted it off because he wanted to play with boy toys and not be a gitl any more. I think it is so funny how he wants to fit in with all his sisters. So I decided to take them swimming at my parents to run off some energy, except I didn't want to swim, so Loryn had to swim in the bucket. She was just fine as long as their was water. I love how easy it is to still please her.
