Welcome back to Young Womens!

I am so excited, I just got called last week to be the Mia Maids Advisor!!! I have such wonderful memories of Young Womens and I am excited to be back!!! The girls are so sweet and so full of life! An added bonus is that Megan (my sister in law) is in my class!

Brooklyns 1st Birthday

Brooklynn had her 1st Birthday in January and we got to go to her cute little birthday party. She was so darn cute! I can't believe a year flew by so fast! She is growing up and becoming such a smart and sweet little girl. Ashley has done such an amazing job raising her! I have been so proud watching Ashley fulfill her calling as a mother. She has taught me so much about raising a child. I feel so much more prepared to be a mother. I feel so blessed to have Ashley as my best friend. She has always been there for me and supports me in so may ways (ever since 2nd grade)! I am so lucky to have her in my life. Husbands are great and wonderful, but every girl needs their best girlfriend! I love you Ash and thank you so much for letting me be a part of little Brooklynn's life! She is such a Gem!!!

Brianne's visit & New Years Eve Party

Okay, I know I have been the worst blogger ever!!! I have felt like I didn't have anything fun to blog. Then the other day, I finally loaded my pictures on my computer and realized that I have done a few fun things! Brianne came back to Utah with us after Christmas and I think we did more things in those few days than we have ever done the entire time living here.

Lance's quick visit

Lance had a track meet in Idaho this weekend. His team flew into Salt Lake Airport and then they took a bus the rest of the way to Idaho. Lucky for us he had about an hour before his plane left SLC to go to lunch with us. It was so much fun to see him and visit for a little while! I am so proud of him. He is doing so well at Cal State Northridge and seems to be enjoying it too. He has worked so hard and is such a great athlete. I can't say it enough, I am just such a proud sister! Love you Lancer and keep up the good work!!!

Christmas Vacation

Christmas Eve

A Long Awaited Post!

I know it has been a while since I posted last but our computer has been down. We have been really busy though so I have so much tho post! As soon as I am able to upload my pictures I will give meore detail of our adventures! We went to California for Christmas to spend time with my family. We had a really great time. I got Mike an "Iron Gym" which he was soooo excited about and we can already see results! Mike got me an MP3 player which is totally fun and cute! He got me a pink one. We got Puma a little stocking that had such fun little toys in it and she is still playing non-stop with them and a little cube thingy that she can play inside of. She loves to take her toys in it and play. She is such a funny kitty...although I think that she thinks she is a person! My dad got us this really cool George Forman Grill that you can make pizzas on! My mom and Tim got us a Kitchen Aid! I love baking and now it is so much easier! Mike's parents got us a beautiful framed portrait of the San Diego Temple. It is so beautiful. After Christmas we drove home to snowy Utah and brought Brianne with us. We had a fun time. We played in the snow. Went Ice Skating, saw a movie and relaxed! It was a blast. Then Brianne went home and Mike's family moved back to Utah from Germany!!! We are so excited to have them home! Then Mike and I both started school. He is taking 22 credits at UVU and I am taking a night course at a CNA School. (CNA= Certified Nurses Assistant) Mike is so far really enjoying his classes and I have found that I really enjoy school and have become very interested in the Nursing Program. Getting my CNA is just one step closer to getting into nursing school. Well, that is life in a nutshell! There is so much more to come!
