Eternity!

I cut my hand pretty deep the morning of our sealing. (with very sharp scissors trying to open up a box and I slipped) We were freaking out. Where do we go get stitches? Who can watch our kids? Do we have time? But we remebered our Bishop is a doctor so we went to his house and he put a bandage on it and said no stitches were neccsary. Phew!
THe weather was gorgeous! The flowers were out and abundant and beautiful!

Just out of the Temple. My moms crying! Ha ha!

My brother in law, Rick, took these pictures. We had a photographer taking some also.

The boys all wore black suits and ties. SO adorable. Nick usually doesn't like ties but Ty got him to wear one. He didn't want to take it off! Cody loved his suit. He was so adorable! They all were!

Our parents.

I have wanted to take pictures like these my whole life!

It was so awesome to finally have the day come!

Ty and I were so happy we couldn't stop smiling or telling each other how much we love each other!

One of my favs!

Ty made me laugh!

Yhis was a beautiful moment between us.

Cody was SO done with pics. He's outta there!!!

We held up gum and bribbed him and he smiled!

We had a small open house at Ty's parents house. Here's me and my dad "acting casual" and like we're having a good time.

It was the most perfect, beautiful, special day. The boys were so handsome in white. I will never forget the special feelings I had there. We are a family... FOREVER!!!

A Cut, Entertaining, and Shopping with Boys

(this is my sad, frumpy "before" pic. you know how ads always have the people look real sad in their "before" pics but cheezy in their "after" pics!)
I was sick of my long, long, LONG hair! I just wore it up everyday so I wanted to cut it. Not too drastic since I want it long for our sealing so I just had about 4-5 inches off. It's nice. It makes a huge difference!

Ahhhh, much better! And I actually wear it down...sometimes!

Trying to entertain the kids on a snowy Spring Break day.

Shopping with my boys. Crazy every time.

Crappy Day

It started out by going to the gym. Nick was screaming in the car and I backed out and "crunch!" I backed the mirror into the side of the garage and broke it. I was upset at myself for being stupid and dpoing that. Then, I get to the gym and Nick starts walking toward home while he still screams and cries. SO I run to get him and decide to go home. Then a few hours later our dry wall guy tells me we have water pouring down from our ceiling. Ahhh! SO I call Ty with that news and he comes home and tore down our newly drywalled ceiling and cuts a hole in our laundry room wall to find where the leak was coming from. We find out it;s from the washer. The drain in the washer was plugged with Legos, coins, etc. So we cleared that all out. Now we're putting a drain in so hopefully that won't happen! SO it was a crummy day.

Shawn's Baptism

Such a beautiful day! Ty baptized and confirmed Shawn. So special and neat!

Birthday Boy

My parents took us to Red Lobster to celebrate Shawn's 8th birthday.

My baybay is in Scouts now! He LOVES it. He was looking at his Scout book and was so excited at all the stuff he gets to do.

He wanted a Black Ninja cake this year. It's a black cake with white eyes.

He had a birthday party at Boondocks the next day. We invited a lot of friends and did 3 hours of Lazer Tag. 3 HOURS! Oy! It was fun!

Quite a Character!!

Our Stake does a bike ride around all the different wards. We all got to go on it this year!

Nick loves tires now. So he took the bike trailers tires and put them up on the play car.

Nick wants to be just like daddy!!

He hooked his bike up to the trailer!

Messages

"We want to play Halo. We will pay you if you let us play Halo."
(They would get really upset playing Halo. They would scream at eachother while playing it so we won't let them play it anymore.)

The boys leave us notes when they are upset.

"Dad be nice to us. We love you."

Strange things to leave notes on!!
