Marshmellow World

Only in Utah can you wake up to this

You might think I'm crazy but

I like it

I like the budding green

nestled under a blanket of whiteHappy Spring

Spectacular

We had the amazing opportunity to see Wicked, for the first time!

I really don't think there are words

to describe how amazing it was

We spent our Friday night at the men's volleyball game. Dempsey loved
it she was so excited.

ROOTS

Dempsey's Idahoan Roots
She found this potato by herself and has
been carrying it all over the house
sucking on it {dirt and all}
and taking little raw bites she gets this from her father

Although she was born here and lives here,

the potato fields will always be a part of her...

Ants and Things

Some say that Ants are the hardest working of all creatures. They symbolize Diligence, Industry, Community, Remarkable Strength, and Success. An Ant can lift objects 5-10 times it's weight. What an incredible feat! However, this incredible feat is no greater or more awe inspiring than the strength of a mother, wife, and friend. I see a diligence in God, Family, and Love. I see industry in the way she Conceives, Envisions, and Imagines. I see community in her wilingness and desire to Give, Assist, and Uplift. I see remarkable strength in her Marriage, and Will to Live. Success can be found in all aspects of her life. Though they may not be seen at first or perhaps not seen at all by her or others, there are successes that follow her through all. She is the hardest working creature. It is not the Ant, but my Wife.

Let the Good Times Roll

Big News This last week Dempsey Rae took her FIRST steps!
We wondered if her tiny feet would ever be able to hold up that chubby body,
and apparently it can.
She is walking at 9 months!

2nd big news

She got her first toofy {that's what we call it}

She is taking such great care of it

everyday by sucking on it with her KISS toothbrush.

It's a pretty cute little toofy.
