Thanksgiving for Kiddies
It was fun to spend this Thanksgiving with April's family and with all our cute little kiddies. They were a handful and very fun. What did we used to do with full day after day off on holidays? I'd be lost without the regular diaper schedule, and I'd be bored if I was merely tasked with dishing food out onto my own plate. And there just wouldn't be as much to be thankful for!
A Legacy Not to Forget

We're all Mormons
Dallin: Mommy, I'm a Mormon.
Mom: I'm a Mormon too.
Dallin: And daddy's a Mormon.
From Gen to Gen
What we have loved, others will love, and we will teach them how.
Appointed as a Father
"Exaltation is a family matter." - Elder Nelson

A Ladle!
April is so good at expressing love and kindness!
Roll Over, Mackenzie
My baby's all grown up and rollin' over.
Happy 4th!
We had a great time with family during the 4th of July. Plenty of meats and firecrackers to go around! Thanks fam! Happy birthday, land of my nativity!
Cabin in the Park
We had another great time at Island Park this year with a nice family reunion with all my siblings and their families. It was mui fanstastico! The fam was great, the weather first rate, and we ate everything but steak. But there were plenty of good licorice candies to go around instead. Thanks, fam!
Treat Your Mother Right
M is for the moan, and the miserable groan
from the pain that she felt when I was born
O is for the oven with it’s burnin’ heat
where she stood makin’ sure I had something to eat
T is for the time that she stayed up at night
and took my temperature when I wasn’t feelin’ right
H is for the hard earned money she spent
to keep clothes on my back and try to pay da’ rent
E is every wrinkle I put on her face
and every worry that I caused when I stayed out late
The last letter R is that she taught me respect
and for the room up in heaven that I know she’ll get
Squarely Spring
At Temple Square, it feels like Spring. It was fun chasing Dallin around the temple grounds and carting Mackenzie around. We're all excited for Spring, and we're thankful that we can live so close to the temple!
Let us Conference!
We all had a good time listening to the prophets, getting the counsel that we needed, and discovering we could probably use a lot more! It was fun to spend the time with April's family. Thanks, Craig and Elaine, for having us over!
