Check out my Slide Show!
So Amy sent me an email a few days ago requesting me to update my blog. So here it is! The slide show is of our Christmas Holiday.
The beginning of December we took all the kids, Mom, and Hollie to Hawaii. Hollie's friend Katie and Traci and Kellie came also. It rained just about the entire time. We pretty much had some bad luck on that trip. I totally have to tell the story. So we got there and it was raining, the next day it rained too. When we got back to our condo that night we had a note telling us we had to move to a new condo because the stairs were starting to fall. We moved over to another condo and there was huge ants everywhere. Then the next day it rained again really hard. Kihei flooded and we were out of power for two whole days. It sucked! All the beaches were closed and we couldn't go see the waterfalls either because they were over flowing also. Well it stopped raining 2 days before we went home and we took totally advantage of that. We went to the beach everyday. The last day we had to fit in parasailing so we went early that morning and hurried back to clean up the condo. We did have a fun trip though and now we can look back and just laugh. Who can seriously say they have been to Hawaii and had to were a stink'n' jacket and sweat because you were so cold. HA! HA!
We had a great Christmas. Dad came and stayed with us for Christmas, it was really nice having him here. The kids adore him and won't leave him alone. We did alot of fun things. It actually snowed for Christmas so we were able to pull sled's behind the four-wheelers. Dad of course enjoyed himself.
The snow this year hasn't stopped coming; it seems like it snows really good one day and then we get a break for a couple of days but then it comes back and pounds us with a few more inches. We have been able to build a snow man and use our snowman kit. It's great that we are getting all this snow though, just think what summer will bring. LOTS and LOTS of WATER!!
We really haven't done much lately to report on. Kelsie and I are going to visit Amy and the boys in Boston for Amy's birthday. I am really excited and can't wait.

So I was just reading Jody's blog and she talked about how grateful she is for her family. And I thought it would be a good for me to also say or write what I am grateful for also.
I don't know really were to start because I have been very blessed with many things to be grateful for. First of all I am very very grateful for my wonderful, hard working, giving, loving husband that does absolutely everything and anything for me. I love him to death, he is what completes me. I am also very grateful to have 3 wonderful kids that help me see the joy in life. I am also very grateful to have awesome friends that to listen me and to just be there. I am grateful for the gospel, the peace and happiness it brings to me. And most of all I am so very grateful to have a loving family that includes sisters, brothers, nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles, and Grandparents and so on. I wouldn't be here today if I didn't have my family. My family means the world to me and that will never change no matter what.
My family has gone through a lot of challenges in the past and I am thankful for those challenges. I believe it has made me stronger as a person. I feel that all the challenges have opened my eyes to see that every family/person has there own trails in life and the trails are all different. But no matter what we will always have our family's to turn in those hard times. They may not agree with some of the things we have chosen but they will love us no matter what.
I want everyone to know how much I love them and how grateful I am to have you all in my life.

Kelsie's 6th Birthday
So I am a month behind on posting pictures of Kelsie's birthday. Anyway here is Kelsie's 6th birthday. Kelsie got some fun things for her birthday, she of course was very spoiled. She got a strawberry shortcake dance pad, a baby cabbage patch doll (it was born on October 11th, my birthday), a princess game and clothes.
Kelsie is getting so big and it blows my mind how fast time goes by. Kelsie can be the most stubborn person ever (most of you know what I'm talking about), but is so loving and fun to have in my life. I love her so much! She will always be my favorite little girl.
