Thankful for pictures

Wow-I haven't blogged since October. That seems to be my pattern lately. But I'm thankful for pictures. They are like my journal these days when I don't have much time at all to write. So every once in a while when I make the time to blog, I can look back through my pictures and remember what we've been up to. So, for journaling purposes, here's what's been going on

November
Thanksgiving was wonderful. We spent it with the Simon's. Full of good food, family (including Brent and Kat who live in AZ-so good to spend time with them,and meet their darling Kayla!) We also worked a bunch on the shed playhouse. We built a balcony on the outside of the shed with a ladder and then made the inside attic of the shed a playhouse (the inside being a surprise for Christmas morning!)



December
Full of fun festive activities, my cousin had his farewell in Idaho we went to, we went back to Idaho on Christmas Eve for my Uncle's wedding, we all got spoiled for Christmas (see pictures-but have to say my favorite gifts were tickets to see my sister in MN (EEK!! SO excited), and my new photo studio-I have the best husband in the whole world!), got to reveal the shed playhouse to the boys on Christmas morning, and I tested out my new photo studio!


January
We built a snowman, went to Bear Lake with the Potts family and had a fantastic time (it was SO SO SO great to be with family and especially see my sister Tiffany-it had been a whole year since I'd seen her! WAY too long!), and we went to Bryce Canyon with the Simon family. If you can't tel we did our best to turn a usually blah month into a great one and succeeded. Had such a great month!


February
Had our 7 year anniversary! We're going to be going to a play at Hale Center and dinner to celebrate later this week. We were in Bryce Canyon for our actual anniversary. I am so blessed to be married to Darrin these past seven years. We've been through ups and downs with life but our marriage has been wonderful. I am so grateful for my best friends hand to hold through life. Three kids later and life keeps getting better.


Life has been pretty great. Not easy but great. Next weekend we're going back to Bear Lake with the Simon's. Woo hoo!
