Lucky #13

 I love teenagers and now I have one of my very own. 

I had work training on her birthday so she almost had to celebrate on her own too!  She is so much like her dad and just goes with the flow even making her own cake!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY has 13 letters so that worked out. 

She is very excited to start back into music lessons and have a cell phone.  Every teenager wants to go to the movies few of them would choose Meet the Mormons but Dad will take her and a few friends later this week.  Happy Birthday Baby girl!                   

Love your Face, forever

I was not going to miss this event for the world!  Brant had a business trip in CA he was able to change his flight to fly to Salt Lake I just had to get there to pick him up and then up to Logan for Susan & Jason’s Sealing!  I was a little nervous about making the road trip with just me and 3 kids but they did very well, Rianne is a very fun traveling companion.  She kept me entertained with movie quotes made up bingo boards and getting Bennett to make all his faces here are a few.

Going back to Logan reminded us of the good ol’ days.  We got engaged here (15 years ago this month) Logan was the first I went through.  We spent our first 2 years of marriage in Logan.  The trip down memory lane was great, we had to take a few trips to find our engagement spot too, Logan has grown and we are old. 

We even got to catch up with old friends who are back in Logan and they were nice enough watched the kids while we went through with Susan. 

I was so grateful to be there with her and loved that they both couldn’t stop smiling, Susan had the glow.  I really feel like their love story is proof in the power of LOVE!    

It was quick but great to see everyone and share in the joy of the day!

Then we rushed back to attend Tyler’s Homecoming.  Heath said it felt like he was gone FOREVER.  He did a great job we are so glad to have him back and for his example for Heath.   

Now I am SO swollen and I hurt but it was worth it, love that families are forever but the pain isn’t.
