to the lives of others

cannot keep it

from themselves."

Sweet Hailey


Brooke was and is such a sweet girl. She is precious in every way and after having such a sweet little princess as her, I wasn't sure it could happen again. But alas, it has.
Hailey is such a Joy!



She is happy and playful.
She is patient and sweet.
She's so huggable and cute.
I just LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this sweet baby girl!
We've had 8 months together and I'm looking forward to many, many more.

My lovely kids...

I just have to say, I love these precious kids...

My first born and my baby girl standing together.
Cute dirty toesies from running on the paths.

Austin is growing into such a handsome young man!
This is a very common sight around our house, Cameron making Hailey laugh... actually Cameron makes all of us laugh!
I don't think two sisters have ever loved each other so much.
These girls are crazy about each other!
I'm so blessed to be the mommy of these beautiful kids!
Thanks to my friend Wendy for helping me preserve
some memories with the great pictures!

Let's go fly a kite...




I'm a little behind on blogging some favorite memories, but this was such a fun day, I wanted to make sure I kept a record of it. Hailey was less than a month old here and it was one of our first family outings with her. We enjoyed a beautiful day at the park flying kites. The kids each had one of their own and there was enough wind to keep them all fliyng high until we'd had our fill. Cameron enjoyed lots of scooter riding in between the kite flying, Daddy had fun helping the kids get the kites going, and Hailey slept peacefully out in the fresh air.

After our kite flying fun we enjoyed a walk around the park trail. We made some fun stops along the way at the stream to look at minnows and in the tunnel to hear our echos. It was a great day together. I sure love these guys.

Easter


Here are our beautiful babes on Easter Sunday. We couldn't be happier with our "matching set."

Austin and Brooke did a great job singing a duet in sacrament meeting. They both have beautiful voices and it was a pleasure to see them share it with the ward. :-) I enjoyed being a part of the choir. I love Easter music and it's been filling my mind ever since.

Easter is my favorite holiday, not because of bunnies and eggs, but because our Savior Lives! He lives and because He lives, we can live again too. This is such a joyous occasion and wonderful reason to celebrate. This Easter the resurrection was especially meaningful after such tragic loss recently. How grateful I am that death is not the end and that we can live again with our families and our Savior.
