jesus wants me for a sunbeam

it's off to primary for me! how lucky am i! i was called to be the 2nd counselor. new callings are always fun - especially when you have the assignment to help take care of the nursery and the sunbeams! little kids just make me smile. they always say the cutest things and the hugs are just a huge bonus!

XOXOXO

charlotte came to play with grandma, aunt breanne and uncle jake so riley and mary could celebrate valentines day together.

this was our day:

• lots of giggles & silliness


• hugs & kisses

• chapstick {c: "i know i can get this lid off- somehow"}

• dinner {c tried mashed potaoes, cooked carrots, steamed spinach, halibut, mac n cheese - only loved the spinach & mac n cheese}


• smiles & chasing {for photo session with aunt bre}

• snuggling {with grandma and aunt bre - lots of snuggling}


• nap time { after 2 hrs. aunt bre woke c up and said "less napping and more playing!"}

• c tryed to get uncle jakes attention {while he played x-box - c loves uncle jake}

• singing and story time

and all of this = love

we had the best day!

when can we do it all over again?

the nicest thing ever

my kids know how much i love going to my storage unit to retrieve & return boxes. going there doesn't really bring out the best in myself. we all have our issues, and i know this is definately one of mine! breanne & jake have good hearts- they took my car full of christmas boxes and unloaded them for me today! you guys know the perfect way to brighten my day! thank you, thank you, thank you! i love you two!

christmas is in the air

(click on pic to enlarge)

it is so magical! temple square during the christmas season may very well be the loveliest place imaginable. i am so happy. it was perfect!! there was a nip in the air but we were all bundled up, sipping our hot cocoa & enjoying the bustle around us. it was so fun to watch charlotte looking at all the lights with her childlike wonder. we wandered inside the visitors center & were greeted by carolers, it brought back memories of when i came with my high school choir each christmas to share our youthful angelic voices with the world (well- anyone that would listen really). christmas just wouldn't be complete without christmas songs- the music is definitely one of the things i enjoy most during the holidays! we loved the santa who helped spread christmas cheer playing his bagpipes. the christmas tree inside the joseph smith memorial building was magnificent! we sat around the tree and listened to the beautiful sounds coming from the baby grand piano. I'm telling you- it was so very lovely! I wish you all could have been there to enjoy the evening with riley, mary, charlotte and i. i guess there is always next year! i hope you are all spending time this christmas with those you love most & doing the things that make you happy!

i'm loving sunday

i started my day with this. ( you should really listen to it- it's better that way!)

at church i learned what i need to do to be a forever family with these folks.





then bre, jake and i had this for a late night indulgence.





i loved it all! hope you had a lovely sunday.
