YouTube - An Apostle's Easter Thoughts on Christ

I loved this conference talk and I especially love this with the music! Just click the sentence above and enjoy. I feel so blessed with the Savior's love and I'm so grateful for the perfect life He lived for me. I'm so thankful for a wonderful Easter Day, surrounded by my family. We are so blessed! I love the peace and happiness I feel staying close to my Heavenly Father.

Happy Easter!

Mark couldn't resist bringing home these cute colored chicks for the grandkids. They were all so excited and we had so much fun taking pictures of everyone with a chick. Tess was asleep most the time---so when she woke up we couldn't get enough of her.

REAL FAMILIES REAL ANSWERS Mon. Dec. 1st 9:30a.m.

Last week Brooke and her family were on the show Real Families, Real Answers on the BYU Channel. They did such a good job I thought I need to brag a little. In June 2007 a film crew came and spent a few days filming their family. They spent the first day interviewing Brooke and Mike so they could get to know them and their kids. The next few days they followed them around with their cameras as they worked, shopped, rode horses, and played. Brooke said after awhile we got used to the cameras. It seemed like everytime we turned around a camera was right there! They enjoyed the crew and it was a little sad when they flew to their next location. Their segment was Blended Families and it will be on one more time. MON. DEC. 1st 9:30 a.m. Next year it will go out to PBS stations throughout the United States and all over the world. It is a great series with a great message! LOOK OUT KATE & JON PLUS 8!

A party at Disneyland!

Last October Brooke and I went on a girls trip to Disneyland and fell in love! So in love that we bought year passes. We really have gotten our moneys worth! We started taking the kids for their birthdays. Since Cody's birthday is in July we waited until October for nicer weather and combined his and Tatum's trips. We also thought it would be fun to have Rhett & Chase go along!! We flew into Orange County and got some dinner & then headed for the hotel. Thanks Steven for getting us such a great deal on the hotel.

The next morning after breakfast we headed for the happiest place on earth! We planned out our day and we started out with lots of fun in Tomorrowland. The boys are HUGE star wars fans so we spent a lot of time there. Tatum fit in great with all the boys & wasn't scared of anything. I enjoyed every minute of the day & loved all the hugs and kisses from those sweet kids!

happy birthday Tatum!

Trip to D.C & Happy Birthday Mark

We loved the Lincoln Memorial, it's one of the most popular sights!

Mark said he had a great birthday being surrounded by his grandkids!
Look at all those cuties watching Mark celebrate.






This would have been a great picture if the lady and the stroller didn't get in the way! We watched National Treasure last night and told the grandkids the boys sat on those same steps.

Mark loved this trip. He loves history and he wants to go back.

U.S. Capital

Me and my boys!

I loved these houses near Georgetown I took the picture on the trolley we took to see all the sights. I really want to go back to walk around this area.

Mark and I

The weather was so nice we really lucked out!

The plan was to take Mark to a Boston Red Sox's game for his birthday--but the weather was bad and they cancelled the flight so at the last minute we flew to D.C instead. Steven suggested we go here to see their new stadium and watch the Mets play.

We had a great time !
