Sometimes I can't help but be thankful for my many blessings and my two beautiful kids.
What a gift it is to be able to bear children and watch them learn and grow.

Drezden just loved the Aquarium! And I love her!!!
As the kids get older they learn to get along!!!
i love sullivans smile
And here they both are before church!!!

Alma 7:22-25
22 And now my beloved brethren, I have said these things unto you that I might awaken you to a sense of your duty to God, that ye may walk blameless before him, that ye may walk after the holy order of God, after which ye have been received.
23 And now I would that ye should be ahumble, and be bsubmissive and gentle; easy to be entreated; full of patience and long-suffering; being temperate in all things; being diligent in keeping the commandments of God at all times; asking for whatsoever things ye stand in need, both spiritual and temporal; always returning thanks unto God for whatsoever things ye do receive.
24 And see that ye have afaith, hope, and charity, and then ye will always abound in good works.
25 And may the Lord bless you, and keep your garments spotless, that ye may at last be brought to sit down with aAbraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and the holy prophets who have been ever since the world began, having your garments bspotless even as their garments are spotless, in the kingdom of heaven to go no more out.

Worst Waxing Ever!
So the other day I decided to go and get a wax done on my eyebrows and I have to say I think they look the worst they ever have... I am so sad about them! At least hair grows back! Anyway on the plus side Easter was really nice. I will have to post a few pics later! I hope you all had a great Holiday!
