I'M SO GLAD SHE IS WHO SHE IS....

One of the many things I admire about Dana is that she loves herself!

Thank Goodness for Sisters!!

I love you Maddi.  Thanks for being our daughter.  You bring a lot of joy into our family!!  You love singing, (Oprah) is common in your music choice.  You love dancing, performing for others, music, and you are becoming a great violinist and piano player.  You love creating and playing games.  Your imagination is fantastic and you are a great helper around the house and watching your brother and sister.  You are a great reader, you love teaching, ( especially at FHE) talking in church, and sharing your testimony. You have so many great qualities!  Don't ever forget how much I love you Dad loves you, Danny, Libby, and family and friends love you. You will always be my sunshine girl!  Hope you have a great Birthday and a wonderful year!

Love Mom

Lots of bike riding!

Summer full of fun and lots of outdoor activities.  Love it!

I can't believe it is the middle of July already.   Time marches on with great strides.... We went to Lagoon yesterday the kids for the first time.  They loved it and we were there all day... It is so fun too see them light up with delight.  It makes it soo fun as parents!!  We went with the Pearts and Carnahans.  The kids today are already asking when we can go back.  I think Logan and I have a bunch of adrenaline junkies on are hands : )
