New Years Resolutions

I haven't been the best at keeping up with my blog this past year or two but I think perhaps I will try and do better so here's to a new year.

We were lucky enough to get the opportunity to go to sunny St. George a couple of weekends ago, oh how nice it was to get a relief from the cold winter here at home. It was so nice that we were able to spend one full day outside playing with the kiddo's.

I had to post this picture, I thought it was such a good candid shot of Jay and him mom.

Christmas 2010

All of us together at grandmas to make out annual ginger bread house the only difference was that it was a train this year, it is always fun to do something kind of different.

This year we had such a wonderful Christmas season, we spent a lot of time with family and friends doing all types of fun things. Jay and I also had a great time with everyone and were reminded how fortunate we are to live so close to all the people in our life's that love and support us. We are so grateful for all the blessings that we have received and for all the joy that is brought into our life's on a daily basis from our two wonderful children.
We are looking forward to a new year and are excited for what it might bring.

Puppy Love

So the day finally came that Jay was able to get another lab pup. Her name is Maggie and she is 10 weeks old. We are loving having her around, she is the most cuddly puppy we have ever been around.
Shaddy wasn't to fond of her at the beginning but is finally warming up to her, it is so cute. Maggie grabs Shaddy by the collar and leads her around the house. What a patient dog Shaddy is.

Joy

Oct. 9th was one of the most joyous occasions of our lives. We were so blessed to have the opportunity to be seal as a eternal family in the Draper temple. We were also blessed to have so many family members and close friends attend this joyous event. Thanks you all for all the love and support you have shown our family as we started this journey.

Carving Pumpkins

Once again we did are annual pumpkin carving with the Peterson family, We had so much fun and the pumpkins turned out fantastic. The only thing that didn't go so well was the weather it was so cold that we by passed doing s'mores this year and my sister made these delicious cupcakes instead.

Excitement

I haven't been the best about keeping my blog updated, but there has been a lot of excitement and work going on in our home. We are so excited because we have finally made the decision and have been working really hard to take the steps to enter the temple. This is such a huge step for our family but one that we couldn't be more happy about.
