Blessed Years

Fourteen year ago on April 18th, I married my bestfriend and I'm eternally grateful for him everyday!

So I'm stealing the lyrics of Shania Twain from the song,"When you Kiss Me"...everytime I hear this song...it reminds me what I have with Blake.

This could be it, I think I'm in love
It's love this time
It just seems to fit, I think I'm in love
This love is mine

I can see you with me when I'm older
All my lonely night are finally over
You took the weight of the world off my
shoulders (the world just goes away)


Oh, when you kiss me

I know you miss me--
and when you're with me
The world just goes away
The way you hold me
The way you show me that you
adore me--oh, when you kiss me
Oh, yeah

Thank you Blake for being such a wonderful friend, husband and father....thank you for giving me the best years of my life!

My Sister...My Friend!

 Clelia is my baby sister and I'm constantly amazed that she has grown up and to such an intelligent and sweet person...The age difference between her and myself is 15 years but our relationship is one of the closest and I'm blessed to have her as my friend and sister! She came for her Spring Break to spend time with me and my family and I wanted to do some portrait photos of her and also celebrate the landmark of her becoming 21 years old! So here are some of my favorites:

I thank Heavenly Father for having her for my sister...love you Clay!!!

March In Spokane

So March was a fun packed month especially with the visit of my little sister Clelia...we definitely had fun! I'm truly amazed that we have such a close real relationship and I cherish it everyday! I wish the weather was warmer but we made the most of it through her visit.

We played Rock Band.

We played games.

We also got creative and made jewelery...which was a new adventure for both of us.

 One our finished products...It was so much fun!

 We also had a girl's night out and went to the movies and saw "I am number 4", which was surprisingly good and then went out to eat at Sushi.Com.... My sister introduce me to the Crunchy rolls...YUMMY!!!

 So I took the kids out of school early and headed to the park downtown and we had a GRAND TIME!!!

 The Red Wagon is the best slide EVER and the SUN was OUT TOO!!!

 So here are some photos I took in the park of my kids and my sister.( Okay with some help of Ike, Nate and Clay)

 Also in this month...Mya and Nathan did a combine Science project for the Science Fair

 Their project was determining which candles burned faster room temperature or frozen.

This is what I did to celebrating St. Patrick Day... did a four clover in Mya's hair.

So Stay Tune for Portrait Photos I did for my sister while she was here visiting...here's a SNEAK PEAK!
