Bradley's Baptism Day

Bradley was so excited to be baptised.  He is such a big guy!  He was baptized by his dad in Tremonton surrounded by tons of family!  We are so proud of you Brad!

Cruise 2011

Para-sailing.... I think I was more scared to to this than anything else.  But, it actually ended up being really amazing and peaceful from all the way up in the air!

Shawn was excited to go para-sailing too, but when we got done - it wasn't intense enough for him!  He is such a braveheart!  He absolutely loved the canopy adventure though - ziplining through the trees and repelling...

This was taken after para-sailing in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

I am sooo glad they had a Dr. Pepper for me when we got done with the canopy adventure - it was exhausting!

I realized after we got this picture taken - it was the only picture of us together on our entire cruise!  Funny!

Sealing Day 2011

Our temple sealing day was the most amazing day!  The spirit that was in the temple was so strong.  When Shawn asked me to marry him over a year earlier I was so hard headed when it came to being married in the temple.  That is the ONLY way to do it!  But, we received counsel from our Stake President saying it could take many months and even up to a year or more to get cancellations and sealing clearances.  I was heart broken.  Above all, I needed to be an example to my kids that getting married in the temple is the only way to do it.  After much prayer, Shawn and I knew that we needed to get married and sealed after clearance came.  The blessing in this was that I was so mentally and spiritually prepared for our sealing day, because I had looked forward to it for so long.  We were sealed exactly one year from the day that we were married.  I cried the entire time that the sealer was talking to us, because more than anything I was so excited to be this mans eternal companion.  He is truely my knight in shining armor, my soul mate, and best friend!

Brandon's Baptism

Brandon's baptism day was such a special day for the family.  Shawn was so proud of Brandon and excited to baptise his little boy!

Halloween 2011

Halloween 2011 was just with Brooke and Brandon.  She is too cute to be a vampire!

Halloween 2011

I haven't gotten this dressed up for Halloween since I was a little kid!  Shawn and I had fun going to the Daybreak Halloween party.
