Jared & Audra's Sealing Day

My very dear, life-long friend, Audra, and her husband, Jared, along with their beautiful baby, Savyon, were sealed for time and eternity in the Mt. Timpanogos temple on Saturday the 18th. I was so thankful that Ryan and I were able to be with them to share in this most sacred and special occasion. It was a beautiful sealing and I felt so privileged to be there. What a beautiful family they are!



This shot is my favorite! What sweet parents and what a darling baby boy!

Me & Audge - I am so happy for you Audge! Thanks for letting us share in your joy! I love you so much!

'Tis the Season!

It's hard to believe it's already Christmas time again! The kids couldn't be more excited! We've had fun kicking off the Season with a few of our favorite traditions...
Jubilee of Trees

Pierce & Madi look forward to visiting Santa all year! Pierson asked for a Star Wars ship and Madi has changed her mind several times, but I think that night she had settled on asking for a baby doll.

Christmas lights at the Temple


We loved meeting up with Grandma for the Christmas lighting at the Temple, we all surely missed Grandpa though! We were excited that Uncle Mark could come down with his fiance Lisa. Although we enjoyed the lights, Pierce and Madi had much more fun playing in all the leaves. Afterward we warmed up at Grandma's with dinner and yummy hot chocolate.

Roadrunners!

Pierce played his 3rd year of "Kicks" soccer this year, and loved it! It was a great season, and especially fun for him this year with Bishop Brooks as his coach. He thought this was SO cool, and I loved how he referred to him as "Coach Bishop". He loved being on Joey's team this year...

...almost as much as Madi loved playing with Tommy at all the practices and games. What, can I say, she adores her little buddy!

Excited for their trophies after the last game of the season!

The Roadrunners with Coach

I also had a lot of fun this season- cheering for the boys, trying to keep Madi and Tommy supplied with treats and chatting with Julianne(who was a much needed listening ear for me, with all that took place over the season!) Ryan helped out with coaching at the games and managed not to pull a "Kenny Rollins", on a few coaches who were less than sportsman like. I had to be proud of him for that. Pierson also really improved in skills this year and it was rewarding to see the progress he'd made by the end of the season. It was a great season, thanks to Bishop and Julianne for all they did! Go Roadrunners!
