DC Temple

We went to the visitor center a couple months back. We were married here 12 years ago...how time flies! I love this temple so much!

All of the above photo creds go to Elyse. 

Nee Nee and Elyse

I love these girls. 

Merry Christmas

It is Thanksgiving day as I'm writing this, but when this posts I will be celebrating the day in Playa del Carmen and getting tan :) Have a great day and remember why we celebrate....to honor our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!

Lucky

I consider myself a pretty lucky person. I've got an awesome family, my health and I always seem to get the hair, bag tie, plastic thing or bug in my food or drink. This time being lucky has really paid off because my parents are taking us all to Mexico for Christmas! We are leaving today and we are stoked! I can't wait to get a tan and just chillax with everyone and be at the Mayan ruins for the end of the world. Peace out everyone...see ya on the flip side ;) 

My loves

Nee Nee and Hyrum. These two are my loves. I was 13 and 16 (respectively) when they were born and I feel like they are my kids in a way. 

My amazing mama and Hyrum. 

Photo creds to Nee Nee...she is quite the budding photgrapher :)

The Cloisters

My friend Elissa and I took our boys up to Ft Tryon Park in Inwood. The view was gorgeous but the woods were....um, well....gross! We saw lots of trash, a dead mouse and a condom. Awesome. 

Her little boy Matthew (the one in the front) has Neuroblastoma. He's 4 and has had quite an eventful year. He is an amazing kid and she is an amazing mama. 

The boys tried their hand at rock climbing and did a really great job. 

Apple picking

Once upon a time we borrowed K dawgs saweet ride to go apple picking. 

Everyone was in a bad mood but I still forced a family(ish) picture. 

But then they realized that they could pay to work (and eat for free) and then they were in heaven and we ate lots of apples....

And Can took a picture of our booties.....

And they loved the wagons and nature.....

And my husband does smile sometimes....

And the kids discovered this thing.....and Levi discovered his thing (as you can see in the pic) he is starting to get better but I am constantly saying "Levi! Get your hand outta your pants dude!"

Exhibit B.

This kid is OBSESSED with his dad. He screams bloody murder if he gets put down from his arms. It's very sweet :) 

Love these boys!

And we had so much fun apple picking and being OUT of the city! 

The End. 

A love story....

Once there was a juicy pear.

Until Mr Penis came along. The end. 

Guitar

Elyse is teaching herself the guitar, she is getting good and is usually happier about it than this picture shows. 

Richard Simmons

Maybe you will get sick of me posting pictures of this cute little face but I never do....except at 4am which was when he was waking us up for about a month. I put a stop to that a couple of weeks ago and it has been smooth sailing...for now :)
