Families Are Forever


Today we went to the Logan Temple and were sealed as a family. Taylor was proxy for Dad. It was a nice day and family and neighbors came to support us. Afterwards, we had a potato bar at the house. Carrie watched the kids while we were at the temple. It doesn't seem real that it has been a year since Dad died. I am thankful for the gospel that bonds families together forever.

Mess and Redemption

Aleeya cannot be left unsupervised! I guess that showering is not allowed for moms.
Serena started cleaning it up without anyone asking her. She is my only child that naturally sees a mess and starts helping.

Great Harvest Bread Fieldtrip

All of the preschool children participated in a fun field trip about bread making, apparently only Serena (of the Dearden children) posed for the picture.

Valentine's Day Crafts





Tara Bitters and her children joined us for dinner on Valentine's Day (both of our husbands were gone). Tara brought wooden hearts for the children to paint.

Valentine's Day Party

Friends from preschool and the neighborhood gathered together for a Valentine's Day Party! We had a potluck lunch and the children decorated bags to collect their cards and treats. Jamie prepared fun games and we had a great time.
