Last Day of school



Last day of kindergarten. I can't believe it is the last day of school and that Conner will be starting first grade. He is such a great reader and loves books. He had a great kindergarten year.





First day of 8th grade.


Last day of 8th grade. I had to put both pictures together because this was a big growing year for Parker. He grew a bit this last year and you can see the difference in the two pictures. I can't believe he will be starting High School and Seminary this next year. He is a great young man.

Picture Party

Ashley tagged me so here is my picture. I decided on this one, it was not the first folder or the 10th picture. I picked it because it makes me happy. Our family in front of the Orlando temple. With James and Bronson joining our family and now we have Brinley and Ashley's new baby boy on the way. I could not be any happier. My blessing that my children will bring me joy is being fulfilled.

This and that

I have been feeling really good. I started on a new medication and I am almost back to normal. I don't get dizzy anymore, the only thing that I have now is the ringing in my ear which can drive me crazy when it is loud. It usually doesn't bother me, only at night when everything is quiet so I turn my fan on really fast and it helps me not hear the "crickets" in my head. I call them crickets because that is what it sounds like. It sure feels great to be back to normal. My doctor, who just happens to live accross the street, told me that for now I can't fly or go in the pool, he doesn't want my ears to get wet. Good thing we were not planning a trip that involved flying this summer. I am really enjoying my low sodium diet. I am getting very creative with my cooking, since everything has to be fresh. I have come up with some pretty good stuff. I have lost like 4 pounds because I am eating so healthy, but I don't want to lose anymore.

We finally got a nice new table for our kitchen nook. We also got a bench to go with it. I think it looks really good. It is an odd shaped nook, so it was specially made, he put marble inserts and it is solid wood.




Today my hair was looking terrible so I wore a ponytail to church which I never do. Everyone was saying that they thought I was Alison. Even Parker said he thought I was Alison. I guess we do look alike.

Ali's birthday party

Yesterday we celebrated Alison's birthday. It is hard to believe that she is 19!!! I still remember her running around with her big fro I mean curls bouncing on her head, too cute.








I love Brinley's look on this picture.




I just love holding her, she smells good!!
