Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Growing too fast

Marli is almost 3 months old. The time has gone by so fast! They are little babies for such a short time, I try to soak it in as much as possible. We blessed Marli this month. It was such a special day! I can't believe its already over, time really has gone so fast. She looked darling in her white blessing dress, it was neat to have her wear the same dress that Makena was blessed in and it brought back lots of memories. I am thankful to have such a beautiful, healthy baby girl. Here are some pictures from her special day and of the last few weeks, also of her cute room that we just finished up. She is smiling a lot now, especially when we talk to her and it melts our hearts everytime.





























6 years and counting

In September Shane and I celebrated our 6 year Anniversery! I can't beleive its been 6 years already, its been a wonderful journey so far! To celebrate we took the girls down to Temple Square to walk around the Temple and the Visitors Center. It was a beautiful evening and such a fun night for our little family. There were a few brides out getting pictures around the Temple, they brought back lots of memeories from our special day 6 years ago. It was crazy to look at our two kids and see how far we've come and how much our family has changed in such a short time. Makena loved seeing the Temple and wanted to pose for pictures just like the brides were. I hope we can continue to show Makena and Marli how special the Temple is and what a blessing it is so they will someday go there too!





Boating

A few weeks ago we took advantage of the beautiful fall weather we are having and took the boat out. We took Shane's cousin, Tyler and my dad with us too. Makena rode her ski and helped drive the boat. It was Marli's first time on the boat and she spent the time snuggled in her carseat looking around. She seemed to really enoy the ride and didn't make a peep the whole time. We're happy to have another boat lover in the family. It was a fun night!
