Defending the Family in a Troubled World

Energy Class

What an incredible weekend.  I was able to go to my first energy class taught by Sue Noall.  I learned so much and it opened so many doors.  I am so excited to see where this new journey is going to take me.  It was extra special to take the class and have my mom, both daughters, Natasha and Jackie and Arvilla there too.  We can do some great things girls together with the Lord!  Love you all

Camping at Paris Spring

We had a great time this weekend with Chris and Kwinnae and Tia and Tyce.  We set up camp at Paris Spring  Campground.  Chris brought his Awesome tent that has a stove in it that cooked everyone out.  They tried their luck at deer hunting in the rain and fishing at Bear Lake but got blown off the lake.  We still had a great time just being together.  I loved every minute with Tyce and Tia singing pioneer children and taking hikes.  Precious Times!

Hawaii April 2011

We were so lucky to go back to Hawaii in April 2011.  Neil and Dina Jensen went with us and we had a marvelous time.  We first went and spent 4 days on Oahu and visited Pearl Harbor and the Polynesian Cultural Center then flew over to Kawaii and spent another 7 days.  It was so relaxing.  We did a lot of snorkeling and going to the beach. I love Hawaii and wish I could go every year.  Yes, I am spoiled!

Our Grandkids

Tiandra just turned 7 years old, Tyce will be 3 in November and Parker is 8 months old.  The word JOY came from having Grandkids.  I love them so much.  They always bring a smile to my face.  All you moms out there... on those hard days with your own children, hang in there because there is light at the end of the tunnel in the faces of your own grandchildren. 

It's a BABY!

Tyce and Tiandra called us on the phone tonight and we put them on speaker phone.  They called to tell us they are getting a new baby brother or sister.  They were so excited.  Kwinnae and Chris got them both their own babies and Tyce was sitting in the chair singing to his baby - Go to sleep Baby... Go to sleep Baby. Its was so cute.  Kwinnae decided to tell them because Tia said to her mom a couple of days ago.  Mom, look at your belly it is sticking out like you have a baby in there or something!  She is so smart!  Congratulations Kwinnae and Chris we are so so so excited!  April 1st baby!

Fishing at Bear Lake

We bought a boat this summer and have had so much fun.  We have even caught a few fish. 

Scored Big today on Huggies Diapers

I got 2 cases of over 100 diapers each that usually sale for $25.00 and I got them for $7.50 a box at walmart!  That's a savings of over $35.00.  I love couponing!

Welcome to our Family

We love you Chris!  Welcome to our family.  We feel so blessed to call you son. We believe the Lord had a plan for you and Kwinnae.  Thank you for loving our Kwinnae and her two beautiful kids.  We know you will do your best to take care of them.

9/11

What better time to restart my blog than September 11, 2011.  We will never forget the sacrifice of all those who lost their lives ten years ago. How it changed America and made us stronger.
I am so blessed.  I have an incredible husband who sacrifices everything for me and his kids.  I have incredible kids that make me proud to be their mother and best and definitely not least... I have 3 of the greatest grandkids ever!  What more could I ask for?  Thank you to my family for being the best I could ever dream of. I love you all.
