Christmas Fun!

 I was able to get tickets to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Christmas concert on December 12, 2015. The Hortons tried to get tickets without success, so I went to the concert with the three youngest kids.

 Marcus, Kylie, Quincey and I loved seeing the Sesame Street Gang with the choir! Such a great night!

 On December 22, 2014 the Larsens came up to see the lights on Temple Square,

 We rode Trax into the lights and had dinner at the Nauvoo Cafe, great fun!

 Then Kerri suggested we go to one of my favorite places! The Salt Lake City Library, what a perfect adventure!

I ended the day with a picture from the Lecheminant kids with the White Elephants I sent there way! Too funny!!! I am very blessed by amazing brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews that invite me to celebrate life in so many ways!

Quincey Horton's Baptism

 We enjoyed a beautiful day with Quincey at her baptism.

 Quincey and her grandpas,

 and Tanner,

 and Grandma.

 Quincey, and her parents on her special day!

 She also loves her cousins Alaria and Kaitlyn!

So glad to share this special day with her!

Christmas Lights

 Kris and Michelle wanted to go see the lights on temple square for family night. They stopped by and picked me up and then we headed to Salt Lake.

 Kris as always showing his "best" side!

 It was a perfect night for it and it was a lot of fun!

I love when family comes to Salt Lake and plays with me! What a great way to open the Christmas season!

Thanksgiving

 It was a very nice Thanksgiving this year! The Lecheminants invited us to enjoy dinner with them. It was so kind and the food was soooo good! The weather was very nice and the kids enjoyed playing outside!

 In the evening we enjoyed pie with the rest of the family. Kelly and I made several pies and they turned out great!

I am so thankful for the blessing of my amazing family!

Blessings

What an amazing message and reminder. I am so blessed to know my Savior lives and loves me!
