Precious

Just a little update on Precious. We learned that her birthday is January 31, 2004. That means she will be turning 5 years old in January. It also means that we will have twins.....at least for a few months of the year. Ashlynn's birthday is in June. So from January to June we will have twins. One from Haiti and one from Ghana. I always thought having twins would be fun.

Christmas Pajamas

For the last 3 Christmas Eves, I have given our family pajamas. I love it!!! The boys for some reason don't share my excitement. I have posted pictures, it's fun to see how much we change in a years time.

For Time And All Eternity

Words can't express what an amazing day yesterday was.
We had the awesome opportunity of having Ashlynn sealed to our family in the Rexburg Temple. And that is only half of the great news. Lindsey, Mitch & Brynlee also became an Eternal Family.
Bart & I were so blessed to have all of our children together for Ashlynn's sealing.
After the sealing, we were invited to stand in front of the mirrors. The sealer told us we aren't allowed to take pictures in the Temple, but we could take mental pictures. It was a beautiful picture to see our family standing in the Temple together, on our way to becoming an Eternal Family. That is a moment I will never forget. Ashlynn looked so beautiful dressed in her little white dress. She is such a sweet little girl.
We couldn't be more pleased with Mitch and Lindsey. They have came along way in a years time. When Brynlee stood at the alter, she was so precious. She stood so still and was very content through the whole thing. I'm sure she was wondering what was going on though. What a little angel.
All in all it was a great day! We are so blessed.
I can't wait until little miss Precious comes home, so we can do it all over.
