"Girls Night"-08.27.09
A bunch of ladies from my ward got together for a "Girls Night", which was very much needed! Enoch had to work (of course)so my Mom & Dad helped me out and watched the monsters. We went and did a session and the newly dedicated Oquirrh Mountain Temple, then went to Red Robin after and ate some YUMMY food!

Bryton Jon- 08.09.09
Buh-yight.. B.. Sione.. My baby is TWO!! He's my lil STINKER POT! He's bigger than pretty much every two year old, he weighs the same as Jett, has the same size feet, and is only like an inch or 2 shorter than him. A few months ago, I had someone ask me,"Why he still wears a diaper and drools occasionally?" I'm like..."Um, cause he's still ONE!" They were FREAKING OUT that he's only one. He's a GIANT. Everytime we go to his doctor's check-ups he's always in the 100th percentile. He better make me some money in the NFL or NBA someday. :] He can be naughty occasionally, but ya gotta love those big brown eyes. CUTIE!!
Him and Milika look like boy and girl twins huh?
Opening his presents
This year we wanted to do Jett and Bryton's birthdays separate, but we learned our lesson and we'll probably keep doin theirs combined like last year for a lil' bit longer.. ha ha Jett was FREAKING OUT! He wanted to open presents.
So... we let him help Bryton
Getting ready for his birthday cake!!
Make a wish!!
Jayden and his favorite Aunty

Ward Camp Out.. 08.06.09
Our ward went and camped out at The Whiting Campsite up Mapleton Canyon.. It ONLY took us a FEW HOURS to find!! There was a lot of construction in Springville adn roads closed, crazy streets, etc. We finally asked someone for directions and found it easily after that.
Bryton LOVES Ifo Pili a lil too much! He kept kissin him. ha ha It's better than them beating each other up in nursery I guess?
CUTE..CRAZY BOYS.
Roastin some marshmellows for S'mores
We LOVE our ward! We had fun. Can't wait for next year. :]

NO WAY-08.02.09
NO WAY... do I have a 3 year old!! I will always have a special place in my heart for this lil' guy. This year was a really fun birthday, because he actually knew what a birthday was. He kept telling everyone. "It's my happy birthday.." It's really hard not celebrating Jett and Bryton's birthday's at the same time since their birthday's are a week apart. But this year, I for sure wanted to let them each have their own special day. We didn't do a "birthday party" with friends n stuff this year, just family ones.. he LOVED every minute of it! All of Janessa's friends tell me that when my boys are older they're going to be "so hot".. I'm not sure what I think about that.. I'll be a PROTECTIVE MOMMY that's for sure! I love you my handsome boy. HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
My friend Aubrey is an AMAZING photographer. These are a few random pictures she took of the birthday boy above, check out her website: http://aubphotography.blogspot.com/
Jett could NOT wait to come home from church to open his presents!
Bryton wasn't jealous AT ALL
How freaking cute is he?!
The boyfriends and girlfriends ;)
On Monday we went with my family to Chuckie Cheese's, Jett has wanted to go there for A LONG time. SO we figured why not?? Yes, he is wearing the SAME SPIDERMAN shirt as the day before... do you think he'd let me take it off?? NOPE!
Thank goodness for Ben & Jayni.. what would we do without them?? The boys WORSHIP them!
Attempting to get pics in the "photo booth"

GIRLS CAMP BABY-07.31.09
I got called into Young Women's about 3 weeks ago. Just in time for GIRLS CAMP!! Thank you to my sweet husband, my Mom, Tessa & her girls, Steph & her girls who all took care of my boys so I could go to camp a get a lil time for myself, to get to know the girls and other leaders better, and most of all to be spiritually fed. It was Stake Camp this year and we went to Heber Valley. I heard it's like THE gourmet of girls camps... oh and it was indeed! When I went we were staying in ARMY tents, digging trenches in case it rained, lucky if we got a COLD shower and even digging holes to go potty in. But at Heber Valley... we were SPOILED!! It was GORGEOUS there. We stayed in cabins that were cool during the day and warm at night they say it's the "temple on the mountain" I truly believe it is. It was sacred there and the spirit was undeniable.
When you pull in you see these flags of the "value colors"
SOme of us before our "so called" 3 mile hike. HOLY CRAP! Hiking is tough!! We were on this hike and the stake leaders got us lost and it ended up being like 5 hours long and who know the amount of miles?? We lost the trail a few times too. I couldn't complain.. I needed to set an example for the girls who weren't complaining. Afterwords.. okay.. still to today.. I'm SO SORE!! LOL
After about 3 miles of the hike.. A BEAUTIFUL view over Heber Valley
Sister Leavitt, Siter Emerson, & Sister Niu... COULD NOT LOVE THESE LADIES MORE!!
Our group for the "garbage bag" fashion show.. and YES, that is our BISHOP dressed up! ha ha He's GREAT!
The girl's were so creative with the stuff they came up with our of garbage bags..
Those look gross in the picture, but they were marshmellows dipped in chocolate with toppings on them.
Hungry waiting for lunch..
Sierra, Me, and Kellie.. WASSSSSsssUP?!
Singin in the trees.. it was AWESOME. SO spiritual.
Me on my bunk
Clean freak.. organizer Kellie on her bunk..
ha ha ha Jessica wanted a picture too.. She's hilarous, love her.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SISTER EMERSON!! She's the BEST YW's President!!
Cookin' dutch oven breakfast.. YUM
Ashley with her cereal..
CANOEING
YOU GO GIRL!! Yes, that is a leader.. not a Young Women!
Everyone the last night up there
LOOK HOW SPOILED WE GOT!! The last day we got Cafe Rio and someone brought me some good ol Mt Dew. :]
Girls Camp was INCREDIBLE!! I can't stop talking about it. I'm on such a spiritual high. I LOVE the Young Women in my ward. I look up to them so much. They have such sweet spirits. I couldn't have been more lucky to be with my awesome ward for those 3 days. EM 9th baby!! POWER RANGERS. :]
