I just LOVE these two girls of mine!

I am SO blessed with two beautiful girls! We just have fun no matter what we do - but here's a pic of them baking some Christmas cookies - YUM! YUM!

Come Fly Away with us!

Flying to Florida to be with Family & Friends!

It was great - we have missed them SO much can't wait to see them again!

Seeing the Ocean for the very first time... & it was COLD!!


Our crammed rental car (actually it was pretty fun) & First Class with JetBlue!

SOMEBODY LOVES PICTURES

Giggles and smiles, Teddy Bears, Cake.
Come Faith it's time to play,

Little angel may your dreams come true,

I am SO Thankful

Every time we remember to say "thank you", we experience nothing less than a little bit of heaven on earth.

I am so thankful for my family. I have an amazing husband who loves me. I have 3 kids who bring joy everyday through their smiles and laughter. I have wonderful parents and brothers and sisters that fill my life with happiness. I am thankful for my friends. I am thankful for my health. I am thankful for the gospel. I am thankful for my Savior. I am thankful for the temple.

Thank you for all that I have been blessed with! Happy Thanksgiving! My your heart be full this day!!

A Seriously Messed Up Witch!!

Doesn't she make the perfect MesSed Up wiTch! If you know Elise you know how CRAZY she is and how she loves to have FUN! This was the perfect Halloween costume for her! She decided all on her own what she wanted and then came up with her own costume! I was SO impressed and I had fun taking these pics--

Happy Birthday Coleton-- BIG 12

Growing up is never easy. You hold on to things that were. You wonder what's to come. But Coleton you have great friends and a family who loves you very much! We will be there for the new days to come! Happy 12th!!

Bear Lake with the Jaffa's!!!

Life gives us brief moments with our family... but sometimes in those brief moments we make memories that will last a life time! Bear Lake is a time where we come together as an entire family for a few short days and play and make those memories that will forever stay with us. Thank you Bob and Linda for giving us this time to make memories that will always be apart of our happiness!!

A Day in the Dirt

Life is not a journey with the goal of arriving quietly and safely in one piece... but a chance to twist the throttle till it sticks wide open... to jump over, slide under, or hammer thru obstacles... to look fear in the eye and backhand it in the head... to skid, slip, or stumble across the finish line... out of gas, leaking oil and blood, covered in DIRT and free from regrets!

My Young Women Girlies

Aren't they all just so Beautiful!

Happy Birthday Coleton~

The morning of Coleton's birthday I asked him what he wanted to do-- I should have expected it. Racing Go Karts at Larry H Miller Motorsports. Papa came to watch --he should have known better than that, we wouldn't let him sit this one out :P I think the boys had a lot of fun! I think we will be heading back real soon!

Updating Coleton's Blog

We are changing Coleton's blog to a new address and updating it with more recent pics & video footage so it will be totally wicked when it's finished... so stay tuned and we will let you know of his new blog address soon :)

OUCH

So I thought it would be cool to post a few pics of Rob from when he crashed. The red one is about 6 hours after he crashed & the purple one is about a week and a half after (can you see the swelling?) Doctors say he is a miracle -- when he crashed he hit so hard that he liquified his muscles and his body filled up with blood (that's the swelling)... pretty crazy, but nothing broke. We are so thankful all is well. No more racing!

To Love is to Receive a Glimpse of Heaven

Christy and Lindsay are SO creative! They came up with this fun idea to celebrate Bob and Linda's anniversary. We had a yummy dinner (Which by the way Linz I still need the recipe for your pork) and played a fun game of getting to know Bob and Linda better. It was fun to find out how they met and their first impressions of each other-- all the grandkids were laughing! Then to top things off we had them 'cut the cake' and 'throw the bouquet'! Good Times!

Happy Anniversary Bob and Linda - We love you!!
