WoW where have I been well lets see
we celebrated Grey's 4th bday -I can't believe my baby boy is 4! I'm pretty sure I'm still 19-ish ??
We didn't really get good pics from the day but it was a great day!
We ended up having our sweet sister missionaries join us and we all went out for Chinese food
Then cam back home to have strawberry short-cake and ice cream cones
Grey -you're still my baby, no matter how old you are. Thank you for recognizing that. 
I love love love you!
Then Grandpa, the kids, and I took a little road trip to Texas :)
It was WONDERFUL!
 24hr drive broken up over a few days and the kids were AWESOME!
 We don't even have a dvd player or anything I thought it'd be miserable but it was so much fun!
I was so glad to have my Dad there and spend so much time with him
NO ONE on this whole green earth is better with kids than he is!
He's so patient and amazing! They were so happy to have him! 
I was so happy to have him :)

Late nights and early mornings make cute faced travelers :)

We went through Monticello so we drove the kiddos to the temple
It's such a small pretty temple I haven't been there yet but I plan to go soon!
We saw a lot of other cool things on our drive
2 wild boars, tiny white-tail deer, etc
and a REALLY amazing thing -to me at least :)
If you -like me- were born and raised in mountainous country 
where no building/structure blocks your view of those snow-capped beauties
you DO NOT know what this is! 
As I was driving I saw this orange red dome tent far off in the distance 
yet in a couple seconds I realized....
IT'S THE MOON!! I had to pull over and take a pic 
-which doesn't even come CLOSE to the real deal baby!
The moon raises OFF THE GROUND! It never occurred to me before!
 no mountains = sunrise/sunset/moon-rise OFF THE GROUND!
AMAZING! 
It was beautiful and unusual :)
We had a great time in Texas -2 of my nieces were baptized :') 
unfortunately my camera stayed in the car pretty much the whole time :(
The ride back was great too, my kids are wonderful!

When we came back we celebrated Law's 6th bday!
-again weird I have a 6yr old at 19ish years of age ???
What is with our pic taking? WE SUCK lately!
It was a great day I brought cupcakes to school 
then after we had parent teacher conference which was great Law is such a little smartie ;) 
then we all went to planet play
-or pizza planet if you ask my kids :)
the night was full of pizza, laser tag, go-carts, etc :)
and we came home to pecan pie and vanilla icecream mmmMMMM!

24 hours in the car is a LONG time!I am glad it went so well for you. My older 3 do pretty well on longer trips but Zoey still hates them. There was a lot of information in this post. Glad you guys are doing well!

Our Trip to Texas

My eldest sister Diana moved to Texas last year with her six children who, since I spent time growing up with them, are like my little sisters and brothers! Now my other big sister Maria moved down there too! I love them all and miss them so much! Law and I had a chance to go and visit them for a whole WEEK! It was wonderful, so in this blog I am going to tell you a little bit about what we did, as well as tell you a little about my nieces, nephews and my big sisters! Since Maria was going to be moving down there she and Kennadee came to stay with us so we could all fly down together. I was so excited that someone was coming to see my new house that I went crazy cleaning everything! which didn't last long... I don't know if you can tell but those are tiny baby foot prints on my woodfloor -cute! We arrived in Austin where Diana and Aaron were waiting for us and drove to Hutto, where my two sistas now live! I love that the have water towers EVERYWHERE! We'll start with the k

So we just found out the other day that we're expecting our second child. I don't really know what to say because it doesn't feel like a reality, I'm still trying to grasp the thought that I have one! Anyrate I am due the 6th of March which seems so far away! I am so excited! I am also struggling with tons of feelings of anxiety and some worries, like will Law feel replaced or feel I don't love him as much? Will I love them both equally? etc. etc. Did/Do any of you have worries like this? How do I help Law cope with pregnancy and a new sibling? Any advice?
