Oh I could kiss those cheeks off!


 



Grandpa Great


A week ago today, I was with this cute couple as they spent there last moments here on earth together. I will forever cherish those moments following Grandpas passing. Their love for each other was inspiring! Better than any Hollywood movie could portray. It was real. They have become one my favorite love stories. 67 years together on earth, an eternity to go! I hope Andrew and I can leave a legacy like Grandpa & Grandma Great! I am so grateful I know that families can be together forever.





For the funeral we went up to Wyoming. It was a beautiful day. Sunny and not freezing. Truly beautiful.


After all the festivities we got to just play with the cousins. It was so fun. 
I had never really been up there on in the winter. It was a blast to just be with family.
Truly a bonding time.











Christmas

This was the first Christmas that I think my kids 'got it' 
They were so excited. Its so fun to have the Christmas spirit. We wrote a letter to Santa and set out cookies with Kennedy. Lucas was to tired.. He didn't make it home from the Christmas eve party's.




We have tried to focus on Christmas being about Jesus, and 'His Birthday'
This year our kids were perfect ages to act out the nativity.
I loved it, and so did they!















It's time to PARTY!

For Andrew's birthday we started off the morning going to our ward party, then the kids were dying to make a snowman with him. Then Andrew and I went out to dinner and a movie.



 Happy Birthday Andrew!
We love Love LOVE YOU!



 Because Andrew's birthday is so close to my 2 brothers, we almost always just party all together.
This year we had a nurf gun war at my Dad warehouse.
It was awesome.
I can only imagine what it will be when all these little kids get a few years older and then it will be mayhem!
