Valentines Love

February was full of lots of love with these cute girls in our life!
Making sugar cookies with Grandma Susie and Grandma Joan
                                           Of course, Brynnley enjoyed the frosting the most!


I was called to teach the CTR 7 class in primary and Jeff was called to teach Sunday School.

New Year Fun 2017


We celebrated the new year by making lots of noise with pots and pans and horns.

Aubrie (4) loves pulling her little sis (1) around on the sled!

Brynnley loves to play with her new Princess castle from Christmas

Brynnley and her blankie that goes everywhere with her


We were able to spend a day at the Ice Castles in Midway. The girls loved crawling in/out of all the little caves and going down the slides.









Brynnley went in for her ear tube surgery in the beginning of January. This was a tough decision to make, but after having so many infections, we knew it was time. She did great and had no complications! The doctor said she didn't even cry during the procedure! Her surgery was done by Dr. Meads ENT.
My hair is finally getting long enough to do it straight....I am getting tired of having it curly all the  time.

2016...What a Year!


2016 started with many hopes for the future...my health returning after chemo, my hair returning, celebrating finishing cancer treatment in Disneyland, Brynnley turning "1" and many other fun times.

Valentines and Easter cuties!

Brynnley's first Easter Egg hunt and the first time in public without a wig!

We celebrated getting through cancer treatment with my family at my favorite place, Disneyland in March!

Aubrie played her first season of t-ball in April

Brynnley turned "1" year old June 12th!  I made it to my 30th birthday!

We decided to get a trailer to spend time making family memories. Our first trip was in June to Lake Powell.

Unexpectedly, my Cancer decided to return and was found in August. I faced months of surgeries and recovery and trying to balance being a mom, enjoying time with my family and children making memories, and trying to work all while battling my cancer recurrence.

Fun in the sun

Aubrie turned 4 this year and requested a Rapunzel party. She was given a kitten, Oakley this year.

We had some accidents this year as well....Brynnley cut her eyebrow on the corner of a table and a few weeks later, Aubrie broke her arm at a birthday party.

We didn't let our health challenges slow us down and enjoyed Cornbellys, picking pumpkins, and trick or treating.

Shannon and Joe were married November 11th

The girls had a fun Christmas season visiting Santa and opening gifts.
