2009 is finally here and 2008 is finally behind us!!! Wow, that was a rough year, but what a blessing to come out on the other end better people, at the very least we learned more this year than we ever “hoped” to (whether it was learned the hard way or not, what a blessing). I am so grateful to have such an amazingly sweet, loving, attentive, caring, attractive and (almost, most of the time) sensitive husband. Blah, blah, blah…I know, I know, but everyone who knows me knows how in love I am with you Troy and now I love you more than ever Babe! And 3 of the best kids ever created, I am so lucky to have a front row seat in your lives…what a show-drama, comedy, plenty of action, a little horror and the best kind of love story! And thank you to all of our family and friends that planted reminders in our heads to keep our chins up and face every challenge head on. Thank you for your kindness and understanding, but thank you especially for your patience and love, we love you all so much more than we can express.

So I’m having a bit of a hard time keeping up with my blog (obviously), so in true New Year’s resolution style I am going to strive to do better! A few other resolutions include:

Going to the temple at least once a month
Daily scripture study
Better eating habits
Toning this body!
Doing more of the things that remind me of….me.
Getting on top of this whole preparedness thing, seriously.
Journaling, bloging, scrap booking, etc…
Taking it easy on the carbonated drinks
Watching a little less of that darn “boob-tube”

Just to name a few!! Here’s to actually completing on or two this year!

It’s been a while since I posted anything so here is a little bit to “snack” on until next time…

April had just had surgery on her foot so she decide to follow our trick-or-treaters in style. She just needed her big poofy dress and sash for "Mrs. Orem"!



All the kids were pooped after hauling their candy from house to house so they settled in to watch a movie at April's house.
