Jacob turned 9 on June 20th. It is hard to believe how fast these little ones grow up. It is even harder to believe how much more expensive the presents they want get! 🙂 We don’t do parties every year and this was his off year. Instead Seth took him and buddy down to the …

Color Me Mine
Just before Father’s day the three older kids and I took a trip to Color Me Mine. It is a fun little shop down in Provo that has already-made pottery that you can paint. They provide the paints, stencils, etc. Once you are done painting the pieces they fire them in the kiln and then …
Summer do’s and summer don’ts
Summer do’s: Buzz cuts are great if you are under 18 Summer don’ts: Buzz cuts aren’t good at all if you’re over 30
It’s a…
Thanks to my frequent attendance to my baby doctor apparently I have earned my “buy five, get one free” card (if you haven’t heard, we’re expecting number six). After visiting with my OB today at my monthly check-up he jumped up and said, “Should we go take a peek?” I was confused by what he …
Katelyn’s Graduation
On Wednesday Katelyn finished her second year of “Little Friends Preschool” with Miss Barbara. She graduated from preschool and will be moving on to Kindergarten in the fall. She is so excited to finally be able to attend the same school as her older brother and sister. I, on the other hand, am struggling with …

Earlier this week I took my youngest three (Katelyn, Claire and Drew) to the Hogle Zoo. I met up with Rachel, her kids and Aunt Abby as well. A special thanks to Abby who helped us keep track of all the little ones throughout the day.

Happy Mother’s Day to me!
This Mother’s day has brought me a lot of wonderful surprises. Most holidays in our family are pretty low-key but not this time! My Mother’s day festivities started off with a Mother’s Day tea with Katelyn’s preschool class. They performed some fun songs and even recited a sweet little poem. They also served us vegetables …
Spring break, winter break, whatever
This past week was spring break, although it felt much like winter break — even in usually sunny St. George. The temps were in the 40’s and 50’s the first few days so we spent most our time indoors. We took the kids to the theater, the indoor pool, and we even took a quick …
Happy 3rd Birthday to our little princess.
Seth and I were startled from our sleep this morning as Claire danced into our room singing about how today was her birthday. She is such a princess. She twirled about the house all day knowing very well the whole day was all about her. Claire has a way about her that often captures the …
