10 YEARS AND COUNTING!

Can you believe we've been married 10 years! The time has really flown by. It seems like just yesterday that Daniel and I were newlyweds and just starting our lives together. And now, 10 wonderful years and 3 kids later, here we are! We have thoroughly enjoyed the journey and look forward to 10 more years and beyond through eternity!
Daniel totally surprised me for our anniversary! First, he took me to Catherine Albertson's Park, where here first told me he loved me and then proposed. We walked to our spot and pulled out this ring! I was so surprised and impressed. Then, he took me to the Melting Pot for a wonderful dinner. I wish I could go back every night! And last, we stayed at the Anniversary Inn in Sleeping Beauty's Castle. It was such a wonderful evening and a nice break away from the kids!

WE ARE READY FOR SUMMER!

We are so ready for summer to begin! After Eli's last day of school, we went with some of his friends to the park to celebrate. We had a lot of fun and even got to get wet! We have many more park days as well as other fun stuff planned for the summer months. It is going to go by too fast!

ELI GRADUATES FROM KINDERGARTEN!

Congratulations to Eli and his graduating kindergarten class of 2009 at Pierce Park Elementary!
Eli is now officially a 1st grader! He had such a successful school year and learned many new things. He loves math and music, and is fascinated with volcanoes. Writing and coloring however, are not his favorite things to do. He takes after his Dad in that department!
We are are so Proud of you Eli!
Pose for the cameras!
Standing so proud!
Nice singing!
We're out of here!
Kaylynn can't wait to be in kindergarten!
Liam wants to graduate too!

"Who can I peg this time?"
"Tag, you're out!"

PICTURES AT THE TEMPLE!

We took the kids up to the temple to let them walk around and take some pictures since it was such a nice day. Eli and Kaylynn were full of questions and can't wait until their 12.
