Kauai, Hawaii

 We had such a wonderful time in Hawaii. This was a 

vacation to celebrate James turning 40 and Lucy turning 7.

 We stayed at the beautiful Mariott Kauai Lagoons.

  

On Lucy's 7th Birthday we kayaked up the river

and hiked to Secret Falls Waterfall. 

 We had a great time. We are so grateful for Lucy.

She is such a light and brings so much peace to our family.

Fun and special Birthday.

At night we went to a Luau Show

and out for ice cream.

 So beautiful.  

 For James' 40th Birthday he wanted to ride his bike to the

top of Wimea Canyon. It was so steep,

and he did awesome one it.

We met him at the top.

In the afternoon we went to Poipu' Beach and

out for dinner at Kiokei's.

James is a great father and husband.

Fun celebrating this handsome guy.

Cute Birthday Buddies.

 Other highlights from our trip,

ukulele lessons and The NaPoli Coast. 

Gorgeous. The most beautiful hike EVER! 

We LOVED Kauai! What a fantastic trip

and fun memories made.

Happy 7th Birthday Lucy

 Our baby is 7 years old!

 Lucy Grace has a Hawaian Luau with her friends

before our big trip to Hawaii. 

 We gave everyone lei's to wear to her party.

 We learned how to hula dance, had dinner, 

played games and had 

hawaiian ice. 

Fun night with fun friends.

 We love you Lucy! We are so glad you are apart

of  our family!

Young Women's & Stake Conference Choir

 I am sp excited for my new calling and to be in

Young Women's with my girls.  Dream

come true.

 Abby & Kate have been going to choir practice every Sunday night.

They performed in Stake Conference with our Stake Youth Choir.

They sand, "How Firm a Foundation" and "Come Come Ye Saints."

 I am so proud of them! They sounded so great.

We had New Beginnings.

The theme was "There's No Place Like Home."

Fun night and great reminders of our eternal goals.

Thanksgiving in Arizona

 We had so much fun in Arizona with

The Schwitzer's.

Erika is such an amazing person.

I loved getting to spend so much time with her.

 Our families get along so great.

 We had amazing weather and got

to go on a fun bike ride. 

Day 2 Torrey Pines

San Diego - Day 1

We have been looking forward to our San Diego trip for a long time.

We decided to leave a day early and drive part way to Las Vegas.

It was so hot in Las Vegas.  115 Degrees!

 I always wrap up snacks & presents for the girls on road trips.

This is a tradition everyone loves.

I love getting matching clothes for our girls.  They are getting

old for this tradition but I still got the youngest 3 matching pajamas.

 Love this family of mine!

Day 4 - Park City

  Cutest cousins spending time together. So hard to pack
up and say goodbye.

 We started the morning with an awesome bike ride with

James, Abby and myself.  I love all the trails in Park City.

We loved staying in this beautiful home!

Thanks Dad & Mom for the fun tradition!
