Happy Anniversary

Brett and I have been married 17 years! To celebrate we went to Temple Square. We walked around the Temple grounds(they are sooo beautiful this time of year)went to see the Joseph Smith movie, and topped the night off with dinner at The Roof(a restaurant that overlooks the Temple). I love the Temple grounds! The spirit I feel is so overwelming; so peaceful. I could just walk around for hours! Thank you Brett for an amazing night, and an amazing 17 years. We beat the odds, and I can honestly say I love you more now than ever! I am so grateful for you, for our family, and for the Gospel that has been instumental in holding us all together, and making our family a happier one.
I love you!

Sarah and Jamen

I took All the kids to visit my good friend Arah the other day. She was visiting from Spokane, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see her(she was in Logan visiting her sister)We had babies exactly 2 weeks apart. She is so adorable, and has hair that some adults would envy. It was so good to see Arah and her beautiful new baby!

Jamen is so cute when he sleeps!

This is how I found Jamen sleeping the other morning. I guess he thought the room was too bright.

Jamen LOVES his little duck. Aren't these pictures precious?

Family Home Evening with ALL boys

When you don't have any girls in the family you have to improvise. Introducing... Brad Blame and Amber Accountable. Kaden prepared our FHE and did an excellent job! He talked about how there is always a consequence for your actions, whether they be good or bad. It was alot of fun!

The Thomas Jefferson Education Forum and Family Ball

We went to the annual Thomas Jefferson Education Forum again this year. This was Kaden's first year and he really enjoyed it! Dallin enjoyed it as usual(he always enjoys being around this group of people) It is so awesome being around people who have the same views and goals for their families! It was so inspirational...I wish they held them monthly instead of yearly. But I will take what I can get! This was the first year we attended the Ball. Dallin's friend Megan came, and I brought my niece Jayde and her friend Shaylee. We all had a really good time! It took Easton and Dawson a while to warm up to dancing in front of people; but then they didn't want to stop. Easton was a maniac on the floor! I will have to download that video; it is hilarious!They had dance instruction (waltzing, the swing, the cha cha, ect.) The dance ended at 11:30 and then all the kids went swimming until midnight. It was a LONG day, but well worth it.

Megan and Dawson. The boys usually love Megan and hang all over her. At the ball they were so shy with her; I had to pay Dawson a quarter to dance with her. They finally confessed after the dance that she was just too pretty to dance with.

Vegas

We went to Vegas and had lots of fun. We were able to spend alot of time with Sammy and Lilly. We went ice skating(I fell flat on my back) Dawson was so fast I couldn't catch him!
