Ezra

I wanted to document this before I forgot. I'm sure Ezra will appreciate this when he is older and HOPEFULLY out of this stage:)

Ezra is one of the sorest losers I have ever known. Poor kid gets so upset, angry, cries and bitter if he doesn't win any kind of game. We played uno last night for FHE. We played 3 rounds and he didn't win the first 2 but was okay because he had a chance to win the 3rd but when he didn't the kid broke down. HA! Not that I think it's funny he lost. I actually felt really bad for him. I think it's funny because I'm really competitive, actually my whole family is, and we all used to have "melt downs" when we didn't win. And some of us may still have them;) So, I see me in him. Ezra, I'm sorry you're like your mama. Love ya:)

Red Rock

The day after Christmas we went up to Red Rock to enjoy the beautiful scenery and to do a little hiking. Eric, Whitney and my mom joined us. So fun but really cold. I think Ezra could have spent all day there.

Christmas

Christmas was wonderful!

Fast getaway

This last weekend Aaron, me and my parents went up to Salt Lake City to see the Motab Christmas concert. We left Saturday morning. Dropped the kids off at Aaron's parents and we were on our way. It was a short trip because we got home Sunday night. It was beautiful up there. After the concert we walked around the temple and they know how to do it. A great way to feel the Christmas spirit. The concert was AMAZING! A big thanks to my parents for taking us! We had a really good time.

Pictures

Nephi, my brother-in-law, took our family pictures on Thanksgiving. I love them. Thanks Nephi! Oh and he is only 16. Talented! Here are just a few:)

Thankful 7-14

Yep, I'm totally behind and I am going to cheat and do one for seven so I can be caught up. Oh well

For the last little while I've been thinking about the quote "Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many." 

So, I am thankful for life. I am grateful that I have lived just over 28 years of my life. I am grateful every single day to be alive!

This day was pure bliss! Lincoln and I played in the rain all day. Then when Ezra got home we played some more. Good times:)

Thankful #6

I'm thankful this election is finally over!!!!!! Even though the man I voted for didn't win, I was so ready for it to be over. Elections bring out the worst in people. So much negativity. Thank goodness it's over!
