19 Years and Counting!!

Phil and I celebrated our 19th wedding anniversary. I can't believe I've been married for half of my life. If doesn't seem like that long, but at the same time, it's so normal and comfortable that it's like we've been together forever. I'm so grateful for him in my life and the love and support he gives me. We have a great family together and I can't imagine my life any other way!
We went out to celebrate on our anniversary and had dinner at Happy Sumo and went to a movie. As we were on our way home, we were in the mood for something sweet, so we stopped at the bakery and brought home cake to celebrate with our kids. Because what better way to celebrate a wedding anniversary than with wedding cake??

Christmas Events

This Christmas came and went so quickly this year that I'll just highlight some of the events:


Choir Concerts





Looming Hats



Gingerbread Houses




We had such a great Christmas with Phil's parents and brother, Dan. We had a great Chistmas Eve dinner and enjoyed sharing Nativity and scripture stories, songs and laughter together.






The kids enjoyed opening presents Christmas morning and seemed thrilled with all their gifts. We had a wonderful weekend watching movies, playing with the new gifts (lots of Epic Mickey Wii), and the beautiful lights at Temple Square. We're so thankful for friends and family that make our lives so richly blessed. It was great to spend the holidays with family!
