Jill's House

Took the kids out to Jill's and of course Braily was dying to ride the horse. I was videoing Braily on the horse when it started running back to his stoll and I got a little worried and stopped the video to help. She said,"mom, what are you doing?! Keep videoing!" I'm pretty sure she is going to be asking for a horse before a car.

Duck Hunt

Shane took Grandpa Brink to his parents cabin this weekend to go duck hunting. They had fun and Shane even took a few pictures!

Baby Boy

Looks like we are having a little baby BOY! Super excited to have another boy! Braily was a little sad about the idea of a boy at first but she will love him so much when he comes.

Raking Leaves

Braily and Avery wanted to rake the leaves for me. I was not going to argue that. When they were done raking they ran in and asked if they could jump in the pile now. I looked at them like they were crazy and said,"Why the heck did you rake the leaves if you were not planning on jumping in them?!" They were so excited and ran outside!

Trace Bently Tanner

Spider Man's

Is it bad to use your children for free food? Nope! Jack in the box was giving away a free sandwich if you came dressed as Spider-Man, so we pulled those costumes out and made the kids dress up! Kids loved it, but I think it's time Kash passes his costume down to a cousin. It's way to small and he seems to think it fits perfect.

I Love Moments Like This!

Last night Braily came into our room because she had a bad dream. I was very tired from Kash coming in earlier that I didn't welcome her very well....well not at all... I just kept sleeping. I heard her come over by me and then go to the other side of the bed and lay closer to Shane. I thought this was weird because she always lays right by me. A few minutes later she woke me up and asked me if I would say a prayer with her because she had a bad dream. We said prayers and I laid back down. I could hear her singing her primary songs when she said, " Mom. I have this really warm feeling inside, is that the Holy Ghost?" I told her, "yes that is the Holy Ghost." I could not help but be thankful that a little six year old can recognize the Holy Ghost and be comforted in times when they may feel alone and afraid through the gospel.

The next morning Shane asked her why she came in to lay next to him instead of mom and she said, " I knew that you had the gospel." We both looked at each other and realized she meant to say the priesthood, When she said, "I mean you have the priesthood". Moments like this I would not trade for anything! I am so thankful to have the priesthood in my home and know that my children notice it and are comforted by this as well.
