Mountain biking Day 9

Brian took the boys mountain biking. It was 3.5 miles and I am told they did awesome. They are such little studs!

Miss Charli Rose Day 8

My baby sister, Stacy, had her first baby. She is the 5th cutest baby I have ever seen. :) Seriously though, she is perfect and I enjoyed snuggling her. Being an aunt rocks!

School is back on! Day 7

I loved having a winter break. I was quite dreading my boys going back to school. Waking up early in our cold dark house is difficult for all of us. Plus, I enjoyed having them around. It's more work to get them ready and take them to school than it is to keep them home, I discovered. BUT, they enjoyed their first day and are thrilled to be back at school.

day 6

I love when we bless our babies. These days are so special to me and my heart overflows with love for my family. I am so grateful for my eternal family. I know that being a mother to these angels is exactly what my Heavenly Father wants me to do and had planned for me all along. I know it may sound corny but my dreams have truly came true. I am grateful to be apart of the Gospel. I KNOW it is true and I love raising my kids to learn it and know it as well. I know my Savior has felt my pain and my sorrows and because of his sacrifice, I can overcome anything through him. He lives! He absolutely knows me and loves me. These are the simple truths I am so grateful to know. I look forward to my new future with my husband and kids. I am beyond grateful for each member of my family. I am truly blessed.

Day 5

My sweet boys cannot get enough of this little angel. Seeing their love for her makes my heart happy. They especially love taking pictures with her.

Day 4

Almond flour! One of my other resolutions was to stay on my Paleo lifestyle. This is a gluten, dairy, and sugar free lifestyle. It really is best for me and my health. I go through a decent amount of almond flour which I bought in bulk for way cheap. With it, I make this joyous almond flour bread (among other things). It is, in my opinion, the healthiest way to live and I love it!

Day 3

Cousin day! We have sure missed Jerry and Evlyn coming over. Glad we got to spend the day with them!
