4 month catch up!

As time goes on I find it harder and harder to keep up on things (the blog). I thought it was time for a review of our family. Luke continues to stay extra busy with being the bishop, owning his own business, being a full time daddy and husband, and finding time for himself. He continues to work out every morning very early to train for the sprint triathlon in June. He does a great job balancing life and being a great example for all of us. We sure cherish the time we have with him.



I am trying to catch up on the balance of life. Sometimes it work and other days we improvise. I usaually start the day with a morning nudge from Luke to say morning prayers as he gets off to the gym. I roll over and go back to sleep and wait for the alarm to go off. Then I get Max ready for school before the bus comes at 7am. I then wave him off and fall back asleep until Kylee gets up. We wait for Max to come home and then we head to the gym while the kids eat their lunch in the car. After that is nap time and housewife duties calls. I am also training for the spirnt triathon, trying to teach my children more about the gospel each day, and stuggle to help my children with good behavior especially during sacrament meeting. All in all I am grateful for the my Savior who is there for me everyday.



Max loves school and has grown leaps and bounds. He loves to ride the bus. He has a best buddy he is obsessed with and is a good bribe for mom to have him get things done. He loves to talk and carry on conversations. He enjoys all time he can get with daddy. They share waffles every Sat. morning. He loves his primary teacher and talks about her all the time. He also loves to have family night and learn about the stories in the scriptures(we think it is so fun that is loves to learn about the book of mormon). He also enjoys skyping to grandma, grandpa(Meldrum and Layton), and his cousins. He looks for to playing with all his friends and cousins. He has become a social butterfly the last 6 months.



Kylee just turned 2. Wow!!! She is very active and loves dollys!!! She can not get enough of all her pretties!!! She likes to be very involved in whatever is going on. The loves nursury and her nursury leaders. She also loves to be with her daddy. Every morning she wakes up and says"daddy", then "Max," and I have tell her they are both gone. She is talking alot and knows exactly what she wants and will tell you too!!!!!!!

Luke and I had the opportunity to go on the pioneer trek for our stake as Ma and Pa. I spent a month sewing my dress, apron. and bonnet. It was for three days. It was very hard, fun, and adventurous. The last day it was so cold, rainy, and wet they had to cancel the last part. We were very dirty and cold. Thanks to Luke's mom and sister who came and watch our kids! We did go home and meet at the church later for the last part. We had testimonies and got to meet and shake hands with Elder Dallin H. Oaks! What an experience!

After we came home with all our dirty layers!!!

Kylee turned 2.

My children love their Aunt Candice. She is always playing with them. Actually Kylee calls her Aunt Candy!!! Thanks Aunt Candice!
