Easter Egg Hunt

We had a lovely time at our Ward's {Church Group} Easter Egg Hunt.

Cutie Pie wasn't sure about the "hunting" for eggs, but she loved playing with them when Reed put the eggs within her grasp.

Cutie Pie loves to swing!!

Landscaping Before and After

We've hired an amazing landscape designer to do our front and back yards. Dave from EOLC has created the perfect space for us. Here are a few before and after pictures.

Forever Ours!

We **finally** were able to take Cutie Pie to the temple and be sealed to us forever. We were touched by our friends and family that were able to attend this special event with us. My mom made white dresses for the girls. When they brought Sweet Pea and Cutie Pie into the room, they looked like angels. After the ceremony, the sealer asked Sweet Pea to join us by the alter to look at the "forever mirrors". Our family went on forever! We took some pictures afterwards.

A bit of silliness

We also are so grateful to our friends and family who have loved, supported and prayed for us throughout this amazing journey and experience!! THANK YOU!!!!

Gingerbread House

We usually decorate our gingerbread house in the first part of December. It didn't work out that way this year. Grandma Valerie did a GREAT job frosting the house.
