Update















I realize it's almost been a year since my last post, and so much has happened! I'll try and summerize with some quick highlights- Daniel started taking the missionary discussions in May of last year, and was baptized on August 7th. It has been such an amazing experience to both grow in the gospel together and we are now we are currently in our temple prep class and will be going through the temple to be sealed the second week of this August. We have grown so much closer and prioritys have become so clear in our lives, and neither of us have ever been happier! My sweet, sweet neice Celia Marie (Kyle and Alissa's little girl) was born on August 10th. She is a doll and such a sweet little happy spirit! I love every minute I get with her!! My sweet grandmother lost her battle with Cancer on October 26th. She is greatly missed but we are grateful for the knowledge of eternal families. Emily turned 4 on Nov. 20th. She is so much fun and is such a sweet little girl that we love having in our house as much as possible! She has made it clear that i'm "kind of" her mom but im really her best friend!! Which I am obviously okay with, we have grown so much closer over the last year and she is such a joy and source of laughter for me and Daniel! Our second child, Moe(our great dane) turned 2 on November 3rd! Heather had another little girl on November 30th who she named Ellie Mae, who is quickly developing a funny personality! She is such a chunk and very tolerant of Abigail and all of her "big sistering". I had a long 5 week break from school over christmas....that is definitely noteworthy. My nieces Annie and Chloe turned 6!!! they are huge and we miss them so much! I turned 22 shortly after that in Febuary. I am now in the Presidency of Young Women's at Church and love the other leaders and being able to teach the youth! I am also the supervisor for visiting teaching in our ward and Daniel is a ward missionary and has a full home teaching plate with 7 families!! Daniels 25th birthday, our 2nd anniversary, my graduation, our sealing, and hopefully a pregnancy :) will be right around the corner and I want to have them documented so I can print out a cute little book with all these milestones in it, So sorry if this seems more like journal entry's as apposed to a public blog for family! So i'll bring on some updating pictures from the last year or so...

Oh my sweet Qbert! How happy I am to hear of all your exciting news! You always told me (back in the day when I was your youth leader...oh I am so old) of your desire to be sealed in the temple...and look at you now! Sharing the gospel with Daniel and now going to the temple! I love you and I am so so so proud of you and the woman you are! I bet you are great in YW the girls must love you to pieces! I wish I could be there for your big day but know I will be there in spirit with a big hug ready and waiting for you when I get back! Congrats!
