The Wedding

“This day I will marry my friend, the one I laugh with, live for, dream with, love”Matt and JetteThe Wedding party with the Bride and Groom!

For three years I have watched two of our best friends grow more and more in love. I have wondered as many when they would decide to be married. Well that day was yesterday!! Matt and Bridgette are in my opinion true soul mates. I have never met two people who are so much a like and enjoy so many of the same things. I on the other hand married my opposite in most things. It has been said that opposites attract, but I know now that love comes to all in its own way and in its own time. With both Matt and
Jette being such out doors people who love to be in the wilderness it is no wonder that their perfect setting for their wedding would be on a beach in the middle of no where. I always thought that getting married on the beach would be such a wonderful setting for a wedding, now I know first hand that it is. My family and friends had the wonderful opportunity to attend a beach wedding up at Red Fish Lake. I never knew that such a beautiful area was so close to Twin, but then again I don't get out much. It was a small ceremony with only about 30 people, but it was perfect, and fit the two of them perfectly.What a Beautiful Bride you are.

I am so happy for both Matt and
Jette and hope that they will truly appreciate the blessings of being married to their best friend and to the one they have grown to love so very much. There is nothing better then marrying the one you love and being able to grow old with them. Marriage is hard, and takes a lot of work, but as most of us know, it is defiantly worth it at the end or each day.
So Happy Together

We were
grateful to be able to watch them take their vows and become one with each other. It always makes me think about my own marriage and the love I have for Michael. Not only how lucky I am to have him in my life and how wonderful it is to finally be truly happy, but also how blessed my life has been since he came into my life. Not to mention that know it is not only us, we have made a family and added a beautiful little girl to the world. To have Mike and Izabella with me at this wedding made me even more grateful for the family I have and the love that we all share.

Izabella
is such a happy baby and even on a long hot day like this one she continues smiling. The wedding was a 3 pm and it was very hot, but Bella did so well. Even late into the afternoon when we prepared and ate a wonderful family dinner on the beach she was happy to be there and to be adored by all of our friends. I can't believe how blessed Mike and I are to have such a sweet little girl in our lives to keep us smiling.
Everyone loves Izabella...she's just to cute!

I am so happy for Matt and Bridgette Wilson and with them all the best in love and life. Just remember, A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.

The Twin Falls Temple

I love to see the temple. I'm going there someday, to feel the Holy Spirit, to listen and to pray.For the temple is a house of God, a place of love and beauty.I'll prepare myself while I am young; This is my sacred duty.I love to see the temple. I'll go inside someday. I'll cov'nant with my Father; I'll promise to obey.
For the temple is a holy place where we are sealed together.As a child of God, I've learned this truth;A family is forever.When we are children in primary, we sing this song hundreds of times. We know what we are singing, but I don't know if we truly realize the true meaning of all the wonderful promises in this beautiful song. When we are older and we have the privilege of finally entering in to the House of our Father, and to make those covenants the spirit that we feel is beyond any that I could have ever imagined as a child. We are so blessed to have a beautiful Temple here in Twin Falls. It truely adds a new type of beauty to this city. I love being able to drive by and look upon the House of the Lord and I am anxiouse to enter in to receive more blessing form our Heavenly Father.

My New Friend!!

When we went to Washington a couple of months ago, Izabella's cousin Addy had the cutest little toy frog. He was bright green and sang lots of fun songs. Bella loved playing with it. Then a couple of weeks ago my sister Kira found one why she was out shopping. She just knew that Bella would love it, so she got it for her.

This is Izabella's new best friend.She loves her singing froggy!!But still not as much as when daddy comes home!

So Independent

Izabella is really growing up to be a very independent little girl.


She hasn't quite figured out how to use a sippy cup yet, but she won't hesitate to help herself to daddy's glass.

Bottom's up!!


Playing outside tonight!!

We have been going outside the last couple of nights and playing in the grass.
This is Bella's new toy!!Izabella loves playing out side. And she loves playing with her daddy.

My Blanky

This is the new Blanky that Aunt Ceil sent Izabella a couple weeks ago. I can't believe how beautiful it is. Izabella loves playing with the bows on the corner and is very interested in the two different layers around the edge. Thank you Aunt Ceil...We love you!!!

My New Trick

It is so much fun when babies learn new tricks. They are so happy and feel so accomplished. We have been working very hard on getting Izabella to sit up on her own.





Every time we set her down she would topple over to one side or the other. Then I started using her bobby to help balance her. But some how she always ended up rolling over it to lay on her tummy.











She is so independent that now she knows she has one more things that she can do with out mommy's help. As long a Echo leaves her alone she is more than content to sit and play with all of her toys all day long.











Not to mention when watching her Baby Einstein's. If that doesn't make her happy she will simply topple over and roll across the room. I'm going to be in trouble when she starts crawling.
Sitting up is know one of Izabella's favorite things to do!!!


Smile my beautiful big girl!!
