We ended up leaving Clayton home because he has been sick and throwing up, and had just gone down for a nap. Morgan stayed and hung out with him. The girls had a great time carving pumpkins. I helped Gabriella carve a "Hello Kitty Witch" and Kate was determined to draw her own Jack-O-Lantern face on her pumpkin. Kate loved scooping out the "guts" of the pumpkin with her hands, while Gabriella refused to touch any of it, and when I made her she couldn't hide the look of disgust on her face. It was fun to all get together and celebrate the season. We're always happy to have family close by. It makes me happy that the girls love to be with each other so much. It reminds me of growing up with my cousins and how much I loved having them close by. <br />

We left after Matt's softball games on Thursday which put us at his parents house around 3 am. The girls slept great in the car, but I can't say the same for Clayton. He was still a trooper though.<br />
<br />
Matt's Mom and I got busy the next morning buying patterns and fabric for the kids Halloween costumes. We tried to keep it simple, but it's never quite as simple as we think it's going to be. We got busy that afternoon cutting patterns out and sewing. I was determined to do more of it myself this year, and did until Karen checked over my sewing and had to re-do everything I had already done. It only took us 1 1/2 days of sewing and they were all done. It's always fun going and being able to get projects like that finished. I'm grateful I have such a skilled Mother-in-law who is willing to help me!<br />
<br />
Matt and his Dad had their own fun taking the girls to multiple stores with them. They ended up buying a remote controlled helicopter that you can attach a camera to, that will fly up to 600 ft up in the sky, and will link up to 6 satellites, landing itself where you tell it to. It was pretty amazing.<br />
<br />
The girls had a great time running around and playing at Grandma and Grandpa's "beautiful" house. They kept telling me how "beautiful" their house is, and how they wish they could have a house just like it. They swam in the hot tub, and really cold pool as well. Clayton mostly wondered around looking for me, and playing with the bucket of cars.<br />
<br />
It was a really fun weekend, and we're so grateful to have Grandparents close enough we can go and spend long weekends with them.<br />

Last weekend I flew to Omaha to take pictures of my Brother's new baby
twins. I can not even begin to describe the cuteness of these two. I
don't know what it is, but the fact that there are two of them just
makes them 10x as cute. I felt so lucky to be able to go and to get to
spend the time with Brad and his family, along with my Mom and Sister.
It was a whirlwind of a weekend. We crammed in a lot of shopping,
manicures, pedicures, eating out, making cinnamon rolls, conference, and
a fun little photo shoot into the few days I was there. A special thanks to Matt for making it all possible. And seriously, I still can't get over the cuteness of these babies!</div>

You have been such a joy to have in our family from the moment you were born. There was just always something about you that drew people in. From the time you were a baby, you've always had a twinkle in your eye. You love to imagine and create, and especially be silly. Whenever your sad and the tears are flowing, your quick to crack a joke to lighten the mood. You love to share with others and make them happy. I can't count how many times you've freely given up whatever candy or toy you just received to share with your sister. You don't like to miss out on anything and love to be helpful. Every time I'm in the kitchen and I pull out the mixing bowl or the eggs your little voice chimes in, "I want to help!" You love each and every member of our family, but especially love the times when we are all together as a family. We love you Gabriella. There's not one thing I would change about you. I love that you are strong willed, and determined, and can't pay attention during family home evening or scripture study to save your life. I love that you never want to miss the party, even though that means bedtime usually takes twice as long. I love that it always takes you way longer than it ever should to get in and out of the car, and that while doing so you always find some random thing to stop and look at or play with. I love that you want to be a Preschool teacher when you get bigger, and that you can't wait to be a Mommy because then you get to "do whatever you want" and "wear really high heels that are covered in glitter." I love absolutely everything about you. I'm grateful for the rays of sunlight you bring into our family. Happy 4th Birthday Gabriella. <br />

How is that even possible? My days somehow feel shorter. I have an hour here or there to get things done, and most of the time those slots are filled with errands to run, people to visit, or trips to the gym. I think all in all Kate and I have both adjusted to our new routines, and it's starting to grow on me. I spend at least once a week or more in Kate's classroom helping the teacher. It's fun to be in there and see the environment she spends much of her day, and how she interacts with the other kids. She is doing really great and I can't believe how much she has learned already. Today when I was in there the school was doing a morning assembly which started with the Pledge of Allegiance, then a moment of silence, followed by all 872 students singing the Star Spangled Banner. It was amazing and beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. I'm grateful to have her in a school that values patriotism, and teaches the children to value their country and freedoms as well. <br />
<br />
Gabriella continues to love preschool. She loves Miss Carrie, loves playing with her friends, and loves learning. She misses her sister when she is at school, but lucky for Gabriella we have a great next door neighbor the same age who is always up for playing.<br />
<br />
It seems like Clayton has grown a lot the last few months yet also not changed that much at all. He doesn't say many words, but will say "ish" for "Fish" he "moos" when you ask him what a cow says, and "neighs" when you as him what the horse says. He can walk but still mostly crawls. He still loves to go anywhere in the car. The moment I grab my keys and shoes, he's yelling at me to pick him up and take him with me. He loves any and all balls, along with toy cars, trains, and airplanes. He started giving dirty looks a few weeks ago, and anytime you tell him "no" he drops his head and glares at you with one of those looks. It's usually quickly followed by a smile. He loves to hide behind furniture (something Gabriella taught him) and be chased. He is still a super happy baby, for which I am always grateful.<br />
<br />
I've finally been getting back into "project" mode. I started on a few things around the house and my list just keeps getting longer and longer. I think I'm going to have to invest in a miter saw soon, because cutting wood with my little hand saw is getting old. I'm getting anxious for cooler temperatures, and ironically it was only a high of 95 today and it felt quite pleasant in the shade...All in all life is good and I have a lot to be grateful for.<br />

He booked a campsite and for 6 months he talked about it every. single. day. Finally Labor Day weekend rolled around and the trip was finally here. We had invited Matt's parents to join us for the trip, and they arrived late Thursday night in Phoenix. We decided to leave Clayton with Aunt Jenny for the weekend, I struggled with the decision but in the end it seemed like he would be much happier playing at her house than being stuck on a boat. Kate went to school for a 1/2 day Friday and once she was home we took off to New Mexico. Matt's parents decided to rent a Motor home for the weekend which ended up being the best idea ever. We made it to our campsites late Friday night, set up came in the dark and admired the amount of stars in the sky. The next 3 days we spent fishing. Saturday the fishing was fantastic. We all, well almost all of us, caught fish. Kate counted every fish reeled in on her fishing pole as "her" fish, and also claims she caught the biggest one.<br />
<br />
The weather was beautiful, warm and sunny during the days and nice and
cool at night. There were a few rainstorms that blew through, which was
fun, and made us grateful to have the Motor home around. I always love going camping, and being outdoors. There's just something about it that is good for the soul. I'm grateful my parents took the time and energy to take me camping and backpacking as a child. I hope my kids learn to have the same love for the outdoors that I do. I'm also grateful for my sweet husband who planned
the whole thing, and for my wonderful in-laws who were able to come and spend the time with us.<br />

I just happened to see what was happening and asked her to please not do it again, but being a young child she decided against my council and did it again anyways. I walked into the room in time to see her dragging him happily across the entire family room carpet. Clayton wasn't crying but he also wasn't enjoying the game. I quickly picked him up, and he seemed fine but I noticed a large red mark across his forehead. Later that night that large red mark across his entire forehead turned into major rug burn. He developed a huge scab across his whole forehead. His sister felt pretty bad, not knowing that would happen to him. It never bothered Clayton much but we sure did get a lot of comments from people about it.<br />

These pictures don't do it justice, they were taken the next morning when the scab was still just starting to form. It got much darker and thicker. <br /><br />Gabriellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13383144454028423729noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7231913010646370144.post-7472695736618738512013-08-20T10:43:00.001-06:002013-08-20T10:44:37.820-06:00SedonaI'd been wanting to explore Sedona for some time, and we finally did this past Saturday. We arrived up there around 10:30am, and headed out on a hike right away. We went to Red Rock Crossing, I guess a famous place along Oak Creek, where you can see the Cathedral rock formation in the background. It was beautiful. Immediately Morgan caught fish on the creek, the girls saw frogs, we found a baby toad and all held it, and also found some cool big bugs. We headed out on our hike but it was super hot. I tried my best to cool the girls off by dipping their hats in the creek. We took frequent water breaks on our hike, and just when everyone had about had it we decided to take a break and cool off in the creek. We all took our shoes and socks off and got in. I think Clayton enjoyed it the most. Matt and I tried to catch some crawdad's, but we were both a little intimidated by their pinchers. We finished the hike, then went to get some lunch.<br />
<br />
We drove through the rest of Sedona which was super crowded. I've never seen so many people swimming in a river, or walking around a town. It was crazy! I'm not a huge fan of overcrowded places so instead of hanging out there the rest of the day we drove up to Flagstaff to fish. We went to a lake called Ashurst, and when we got there the storm clouds had rolled in. We went from 100 degree weather in Sedona to the 60's and rain in Flagstaff. It was a welcome change. After fishing for a few hours we headed home. It was a fun day and I always love getting out and doing stuff with the family.<br />

It was a really hot day, but the water was perfect! We saw wild donkey's, swam in the lake, and Morgan and I wake boarded which I haven't done forever. It was really fun and refreshing to be in the water. The kids were great on the boat, as they always are. The moment we put Clayton's life jacket on him he didn't move. I don't know what was going on with him but he did not move a muscle the whole time we were on the boat. He did fall asleep, but the second he woke up he just sat perfectly still enjoying being there. <br />

It was her first friend party and she was exceptionally excited for it. After talking with Kate about her birthday this year, she opted to not receive presents from Matt and I and instead have ponies at her Birthday Party.<br />
<br />
Gabriella and I made all the decorations, which ended up taking twice as long as it should have, thanks to my little helper :) We had about 13 kids there, and it turned out super cute. The ponies were a big hit, with their manes and tails painted pink and purple and unicorn horns on their heads. All the kids got at least 3 different turns to ride. After an hour of pony rides we played some games, opened presents, and had cake. The party was really fun and I'm glad Kate enjoyed all of it. <br />

Gabriella was so excited to finally be the one to get to go after watching her sister get dropped off for 2 years. I walked her in, talked to the teacher, then tried to say goodbye, but Gabriella was too busy playing to pay me any notice. She was smiling when I dropped her off and smiling when I picked her up. I think she is really going to love going there this year.<br />

The same week Kate started Kindergarten. Matt and I chose to have her to full day with Kindergarten in the morning and Enrichment in the afternoon. Both her teachers are young, but really fun and cute. The first morning our whole family went. We walked with Kate to the playground, where the kids play until it's time to line up. Then we stood by her in line. She was a little timid but was trying hard to be brave. She immediately started talking to a little girl in front of her in line, and telling her all about how her Dad tried to be brave his first day of Kindergarten but actually turned away from his mom and went into the school crying. Both the girls were laughing, and Matt and I thought she must be alright if she's telling stories like that already. I chose not to walk her to the classroom, so we waved goodbye and that was it. <br />
<br />
When I picked her up it was fun hearing little bits and pieces from her
day. She came home telling me about how her friend Maya kissed a
boy...but then she had to break up with him because it was disgusting.
She told me all her preschool friends find each other on the play ground
and chase Parker. She's had a few mornings of dragging her feet to go,
but mostly she's been great. She wakes up super early so she will
still have time to watch at least 1 cartoon before school. I already
can't believe how much she has learned. She came home this week talking
about the 7 continents, longitude, latitude, the equator, and prmie
meridian. I think it's going to be a great school year.<br />

Matt met us in Rawlins, and the next day we drove up to the Cabins. It had been way too long since I'd been there. I think the last time we went was when I was pregnant with Gabriella. I was so excited to be back up in the Mountains at one of my favorite places in the world. The trip was amazing! The girls had so much fun playing with their cousins, I hardly saw them at all. Clayton really loved the dirt, and didn't mind crawling around all over in it. We did a ton of fun stuff, but I think my favorite part is just being out in Heavenly Father's creations, away from the distractions we have at home. Here's a list of some of the highlights of the trip:<br />
<br />
*Kate set a trap and caught a chipmunk all by herself<br />
*Went on walks with my mom, sister, and multiple children.<br />
*Hiked around the lake with Kate and Makenna. (It took us a loooong time to make it)<br />
*We went out to the desert to shoot off guns and hunt for arrowheads. I found an arrowhead, which was pretty awesome.<br />
*Eating ice cream at Farson<br />
*The kids caught horny toads, which is actually a lizard.<br />
*Saw a Mom Moose and her baby<br />
*Dutch oven dinners.<br />
*Went
on a long and very adventurous 4-wheeler ride with Matt (the 4wheeler
kept breaking down, we hitch hiked back to camp, luckily a nice teenager
offered me a ride, so I climbed on the back of his racing dirt bike and
rode 13 miles back to camp! We were grateful for his help.)<br />
*Morgan
and my cousins were charged by a Grizzly Bear, running full speed at
them, while they were backpacking up high. They jumped up and yelled
and the bear ran away. After talking to a bear expert in the area, he
believed the bear had picked one of them out to attack and had been
stalking them. Apparently that's how grizzlies hunt deer. Crazy right!<br />
*Caught lots and lots of trout which we ate for breakfast.<br />
*Kate spotted a snake on a hike and I caught it for her (but I won't post any pictures of that)<br />
*Clayton LOVED playing in the dirt. He would just take handfuls and throw it, all day long. That kid was born to be dirty.<br />
*Took the kids swimming in the lake, which was freezing but they loved it.<br />
*The Durrant Family Reunion, and the great games we played, thanks LaRae! <br />

I was stressed about flying with 3 kids, for 2 1/3 hours but the kids were great on the flight. Omaha was so much fun. It was so nice to escape the heat, and enjoy the lake and seeing all my family. The girls loved playing on the beach building sand castles, swimming in the lake, fishing from the dock, going for rides on the boats, going paddle boating, catching toads, picking from the garden, seeing lightning bugs, and the list goes on and on. It was seriously so nice to be there. The toads were a main attraction for them, and from sun up till sun down they were out scouring the yard looking for them. I don't know how anyone can not love toads, they don't bite, they just hop around eating bugs. My parents have so many at their house you have to be careful as the sun sets, they are hoping around all over the place! We imported cousins for the week, just taking turns with all the families. The kids never got bored because there was always someone to play with or some toad to catch.<br />
<br />
The fourth of July my parents always throw a huge party. I love it! I am so grateful for my families patriotism. It seems like the 4th of July isn't that big of deal to some people, but for us it was a big deal. It has always been one of my favorite holidays because my parents always made it special. Now they invite all the extended family to come out and swim, boat, fish, eat, and do fireworks. There is always amazing food and lots of talking and laughter. I'm grateful that my parents have instilled in all of us kids a love for our country and for the 4th of July. I hope I can be there every year to celebrate with them!<br />
<br />
We did a ton of fun stuff in Omaha, but I think my favorite part is just being able to spend the time with my family. My Mom and I organized a few of her closets/rooms, we went swimming at my aunts house, visited my Grandparents, visited my siblings, and did a lot of swimming in the lake. All the kids and I even tubed.<br />
<br />
It was a great stay in Omaha and I am so grateful for my parents for letting us come for so long! Can't wait till next summer.<br />

<br />
In June we headed to California for Matt's little brother's mission farewell. All the family came into town, and it was one giant party for the weekend. Everyone swam, played games, and enjoyed our last few days with Uncle Dan. The girls always love being with their cousins. Dan spoke in church on Sunday, and did a fantastic job.<br />
<br />
Monday we said our goodbyes, and headed home to Phoenix. Dan will be serving in the Lancing, Michigan Mission. I'm so grateful for the young men and women who make the choice to serve missions for our church. They put their life on hold, to go and serve the Lord for 2 years. And in the process they are blessed richly, and come away with stronger testimonies and closer to their Father in heaven they ever knew possible. Dan has so many nieces and nephews that look up to him, and I am grateful for the example he has set for them.

Kate took a Jazz class this year that definitely pushed her out of her element. She was the youngest in the class with girls up to age 10-11. She improved so much from the beginning of the year to the end. She can now do the splits, the pencil, fan kicks, and a lot of other moves that were pretty hard in the beginning.<br />
<br />
Gabriella took a tap/ballet class with other kids her age. She LOVED going every week. Gabriella's teacher was the owner of the studio who also taught Kate last year. Towards the end of the year she came up to me and said she couldn't believe Kate and Gabriella were sisters. She said they are as different night and day. She followed that up by commenting on how I'll have my hands full when Gabriella's a teenager. It was pretty funny. I know exactly what she's talking about. Kate was so attentive in her class, and tried her hardest where Gabriella would easily get bored and just do whatever she wanted. And when the teacher would get after her she could care less. But at least she loved going.<br />
<br />
The girls did great at their recital. Gabriella's dance was the 2nd one, and I'll be honest I was a little nervous. I'd seen her practice and I was certain she only knew about 3 parts of the entire dance. But when the time came she did great. It was so stinking cute. They danced to "Painting The Roses Red." I was so proud of Gabriella, you could really tell she was trying her hardest.<br />
<br />
Kate's dance ended up being second to last, of 56 dances. She did awesome considering how fast and hard their dance was. She was super happy on stage smiling the whole time. It was a long but very fun evening. <br />

I absolutely LOVE their teacher, Miss Nancy, and was really sad after she moved away last year. Luckily she came back this summer just to teach swimming lessons. Last year was a little rough for both the girls but this year they really loved it and improved so much. It wasn't always the most fun for Clayton and I sitting outside in 100 degree weather from 11-1pm, but it was totally worth it. <br />

How is it possible he is one? He finally started crawling right after his Birthday. I've never been so excited to have a baby crawl. He was getting pretty frustrated just watching all the action from the sidelines, which ended up in him crying a large portion of the day unless I was helping him to get exactly where he wanted to go. He's been so happy since he finally figured it out. <br />
<br />
Clayton was a really mellow baby, and continues to be a pretty content little guy. He loves balls and throws everything! You have to be careful sitting too close to him. He also loves to ride in the car and go places. I love going into his room in the mornings when he wakes up and seeing his smiling face looking up at me. When I ask him to give me kisses, he reaches his hands up to my face, grabs a handful of hair and pulls my face towards him to plant a giant open mouthed kiss on me. It cracks me up every time. He started getting teeth around 11 months and currently has his top two and bottom two.<br />
<br />
Clayton has been such a blessing to have in our family. There's just something so sweet about little boys. He fills our home with so much light and joy. We all adore and love him. <br />

The week and weekend had been pretty busy so when Sunday rolled around we we're grateful to have the day to spend as a family at home . Matt picked out his present, a new fishing rod and reel. The girls smothered him with hugs and kisses and Clayton practiced his crawling.<br />
<br />
I'm always grateful that I married someone who is such a wonderful Father. He loves his children and is always happy to spend time with them. I've been blessed in my life to have such great examples of amazing Father's around me. My own Father, my Grandfather, and my Father-in-law. I'm grateful that they raised their families in the gospel and that they honor their priesthood. My own life has been blessed because of the righteous choices they have made, and I know those choices will continue to bless the life of my children and their children. <br />

The last 2 years Kate has done at least one session of Preschool, mostly just to give her something to do. This summer we let Gabriella join in on the fun. She'll be starting Preschool at Miss Carrie's in the fall so I thought it might be a good transition for her to try it out this summer. She was so excited to be going. After their first day together I asked Kate how it went, she said pretty good. She let me know Gabriella was happy and good except she wouldn't clean up at clean up time. That really didn't surprise me considering how hard it is to get her to clean up at home. I guess we'll have a few things to work on before August comes around.<br />

My Grandma sent these adorable dresses for the girls. The girls love them, and it was so thoughtful of her to think of them. I feel so grateful that my girls know and love their Great Grandma and Grandpa. <br />

The sun was just setting, so we swam in the warm water, looked for crawdad's, and played until the sun went down. Once it was dusk we pulled out the fishing poles, found a group of Striper's and caught fish. Kate caught her very first Striper which was really exciting for her. Matt had to help her reel it in because it fought so hard. She was pretty proud of the catch, and even happier when it ended up being the biggest one we caught that night.<br />
<br />
It's always a lot of work doing things like that with little kids, packing all the necessary things for them, and keeping the baby entertained, but it was worth it and everyone had a fun time.<br />

In May over Memorial Day weekend my parents made the trip down to Phoenix. My Dad, Morgan, and Matt headed to Lake Powell fishing while my Mom stayed home with me and the kids and played. It was super fun to have them here. We did a little shopping, tried to teach Clayton to crawl (which you'll see is becoming a theme over the past few months), planted some plants in the backyard, and played with the girls. The fishing trip was really successful for the boys, they each caught over 100 fish. The time went too fast, as it usually does.<br />

My Grandma and Grandpa headed to my cousin Melissa's home to spend a few days with her and her husband, and Jay and Sarah and their boys Aiden and Alex came to our house. <br />
<br />
Jay was one of Matt's mission companions and we always love getting together with them. I love talking to Sarah, and catching up on all the fun things they have been up to. Their little boy Aiden, who isn't so little anymore is about the sweetest kid I've ever met. And it was so fun to get to meet Alex for the first time. The kids had fun playing. We took them to a park, fishing up in Anthem, and swimming. <br />
<br />
We're always grateful for any time we get to spend with them. Hopefully next time we can head up to Colorado to pay them a visit.<br />

I love my Grandma and Grandpa and have always had a close relationship with them. I have fond memories as a child going to their home and playing hide-in-go-seek in the dark, a tradition we've carried on in our home, cooking and baking with my Grandma, and having fun cousin sleepovers at their home. The girls loved all the attention they received during that 2 weeks and I enjoyed listening to them tell me different stories about their life. <br />
<br />
My Grandma and Grandpa are converts to the church and their conversion is a really neat story. I had heard it before but it was so neat to hear my Grandma retell the story for Morgan. I probably won't do the story justice but for memory sake I want to write it down.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">My Grandma had recently had a baby (I don't remember which one, but I think it was # 4 or 5). She was trying to lose the baby weight when a friend of her told her to take up smoking and drinking coffee and the weight would fall right off. She tried that but never liked smoking. My Grandpa on the other hand was an avid smoker. He smoked around 2 packs of cigarettes a day. One day they had some Mormon Missionaries stop by their house. My Grandma was kind to them but did not invite them in. The missionaries left a Book of Mormon with them, which my Grandma placed on a shelf in their living room. </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">Over the course of the next year my Grandma began to have a yearning to find a church for their family to attend. She didn't want to go to the church she had grown up in, and was trying out different churches to see what felt right to her. It was around this time the Book of Mormon ended up on a table next to a chair my Grandpa would sit in often and smoke. One day he looked up at Gloria and said "Gloria you see this cigarette? It's the last one I will ever smoke." She laughed at the notion because as long as she had known my Grandpa he had been a smoker, and not just a social smoker, he smoked a lot. She testified to me later that it was the power of the Book of Mormon in their home that began to change their life. Just having the book in their home was changing them, even though they had never picked it up to read it. My Grandpa told me he was just sitting in his chair that day when this overwhelming feeling came over him that he needed to stop smoking. He listened to that feeling and never again smoked. Soon after that experience another set of Missionaries came to their door. This time they let them in. </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">My Grandma and Grandpa took the discussions and knew immediately it was true. They were baptized along with my Dad who was 8 at the time. A few years later they took the long trip to the Salt Lake Temple, which was the closet to Omaha at that time, to be sealed together as a family. My Grandparents have served faithfully in the church ever since. </span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></i>
<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">I feel so grateful for the choices they made and for the blessings that will come for generations and generations because of those choices. </span></i><br />
<br />
It was a sweet and tender time for me to have them here with us. I know they won't be around forever, and I feel so grateful to have my girls know their Great Grandma and Grandpa.<br />

We began the month by moving into our new house. I always seem to forget how much work it is to move, but so exciting at the same time. A week after we moved in my Mom and Dad came to stay with us, along with my brother Lance and his family. We were so excited to have them come down to see us. It's the first time ever that they have come and stayed with us. I felt pretty special they would use their spring break to come down. <br />
<br />
Lance and Tanya drove their trailer down. They slept in the trailer with the baby while the 3 older kids slept in the girls room with them. It was one big slumber party for the week. We went swimming, hiking, to the zoo, shopping, celebrated Olivia's Birthday, scorpion hunting, and played at some parks. My kids loved having their cousins here to play. <br />
<br />
Lance was kind enough to bring down some of his equiptment and build me shelving in some of the closets of the new house, along with hanging cabinets in the laundry room. I felt bad having him work on his vacation but I was so grateful he took the time to do that for me. <br />
<br />
After Lance and Tanya left, my Mom and Dad, and Matt and I decided to go out to dinner to celebrate my Birthday. We went and sat down at the table and about 10 minutes later my Aunt and Uncle (who live in Phoenix) show up with my sister Amber and her little baby Clara! It was such a surprise. Amber had flown in to celebrate my 30th Birthday with me. I was completely shocked! I felt so loved and grateful my sweet sister would come and do that for me. <br />
<br />
My parents flew out the next day and Amber got to play for a few more days with us. We did a lot of shopping, which was super fun, went to church, and played up in Anthem at the park. It was really fun to see her. I'm always wishing we lived by each other. <br />
<br />
March went by really fast, but I was so grateful to have had so much family come and see us. <br />
