Thankful for Kansas

We are so thankful for all of the experiences that we had in Kansas. We are glad to be home no doubt about that but just the growth our family expericed was worth the 2 years. We miss Mom and Dad terribly but want them to know that we love them so much and we are so glad that we took the chance and came out to Kansas. We met some amazing people, we grew stronger in the gospel and most of all we learned that being an example to those around you can really make a difference. I am so thankful that we did have the Towners as friends they took us in as part of their big family out there and invited us to things which helped us to get out and get to know others in the community. I am thankful for the Branch out there and for the growth that we experienced there. It was nice to step up and help and serve the Lord in callings that I was not really sure of but they made me stronger. We miss Kevy, Binny and the girls and hope to see them again soon. I miss the amazing thunderstorms (LOL) and I hope that I never get to see one out there again!!!See ya Tipton!!!!

Spring Program & Kindergarten Graduation


I was in charge of the Spring Music Program and it turned out soooo good I was soooo proud of all of my kids!!! The theme was I am proud to be an American!!! I decorated the stage and the kids wore red and white it was wonderful!! Brinlee graduated from Kindergarten and we were so proud of her she looked so cute in her little cap!!! Her class I also was in charge of their music program. We sang some Primary songs which was fun, popcorn popping, springtime songs and a song about summertime. I had such a good time it was alot of work but it was way worth it in the end. I could have never done it if I hadn't had my mom to tend so I am sooooo thankful for her!!!!!

Friends For Always!!!


We have the best of Friends back in Tipton that we miss terribly!!!! We would go to the cafe for dinner, hang out and let the kids play. The kids would have sleepovers and we would stay and visit for hours!!! We miss the Towners SOOOOO much and we hope that they can come visit us soon. In one of the pics you can see how Brays was so excited that Samuel was underneath him in the carseat so sweet!!!!

Trip to the Zoo


Before school got out in Kansas the kids went to the zoo for a fieldtrip. I got to go with them and I am so glad that I did. Now that I am a full-time workin mom I don't know how many fun things I will get to go to!!! We had a good day the weather was perfect and the kids had a great time being with their classmates.

Kevy Graduates


We also got to go to Kevy's graduation before we left Kansas. I was so proud of him!!! Good job Kevy!!!! The girls wanted to sit by themselves, they are so funny!! Binny had a nice dinner after it was over and the kids just played!!! It was nice to be there with Kevy, Binny and the girls we miss them!!!!

Sprinklers in Kansas


Before we left Kansas we had a few really nice days. Braxton and Brin decided to get the sprinkler out. Braysen had never seen anything like this before!!! He loved it!!! He was right up in the sprinkler and got soakin wet!!!!

Family Night


One night for family night we talked about how much each family member loved the other. The kids then decorated crowns that said My Family Loves Me!!! It was way cute!!!
