Who has time to blog any more?

Who has time to blog any more? It sure is not me. I have been so busy now that Ambree has come along that I can't seem to find time to blog. Thanks to my sister Emily making me promise to update it, I have taken the time to sit down and blog. So I am sorry it has been awhile.
First off March has been so AMASING! We have had so much fun running from here to there that the time has flone. 
I will start off by telling you about our very special trip to Washington. My little Niece and Nephews were baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints a couple of weeks ago and I could not be more proud of them. It was such a special time and so much fun. Areianna is 8 years old and could hardly wait to be baptized. Levi is 10 years old and found that he really enjoyed going to church and learning about the gospel, so when the day came he really was ready to be baptized, and Lazarus is 12 years old and was so proud to not only be baptized but to also received the Aronic priesthood. The whole family traveled from Utah to see them on this very special day.  Grandpa Mike baptized them and there uncle Seth comformed them. There uncle Daniel gave Laz the priesthood and grandma Louise and Grandma Junile spoke at the baptism. It was so amazing to see all the people that came and supported them. The room was so packed that they had to open the overflow to make enough room for everyone. The spirit filled the room that day and I could tell the kids felt very loved. It was perfect!
We also spent some quality time with the family during our trip. It was hilarious when we had a Saint Patrick’s Day scavenger hunt and there were more adults fallowing the kids around watching them and taking pictures, than there were kids searching for the clues. And we were even joined by the missionaries that help baptize the kids. It was a so funny and such a blast!
Thanks Emily and Miach for having us over in your home for the week we wouldn’t have missed it for the world.  I am so proud of your kids and I love them so much. We love you guys!

Also this month was my Birthday and yes I am another year older.  It was an ok Birthday we were so busy that we kind of just skipped over it (witch was fine with me) but we did have a birthday dinner the Sunday after. It was nice and I am exited to see what 36 feels like. I remember when I was about 8 years old and thinking that 36 were anchent. So here I am 36 and I don't feel older than about 18 or 19. Kind of strange. I'm really not that old, right?
Any way moving on....


I did have the privilege this month to help host a baby shower for two wonderful ladies, Amy and April, they have been such a blessing in my life. Amy and April have also gone through the loss of a baby and have been there and supported me when I have needed them. Amy is Alexis's mom, and April is Harrison’s mom, they are both pregnant again and are due around May.  Natalie (Branson's mom) and I decide that we needed to do something for them because when we were pregnant this last October they Through Natalie and I a baby shower. Not only did they celebrate our new little girls but the honerd our babies we had lost. They had invited other moms that had also lost little ones to the shower and they displayed all our angel babies’ pictures on the fireplace mantle. It was so wonderful and thoughtful that we had to do something special for them.  
Here we all are it was so much fun! 
So we decide that we also wanted to invite angel moms to their shower and do something to remember their angel babies.  Jamie is another mom of and angel. Her little James returned to haven just this last October and it just breaks my heart that other mothers went through such sadness.  We were so glad that she came, she is such a neat gal and I am so glad to have got to know her a little better. It was so nice to have such wonderful women their to celebrate Amy and Aprils new babies on the way.
We decided to have balloons with each angel baby’s names on them and at the end of the shower we would have a balloon release. I think it turned out great.
