Prayers

I am so grateful for the blessing and knowledge I have of my Heavenly Father. I am so grateful to know that I can pray to him anytime and he truly does hear our prayers and watches over us.  The other day, I got up to run at 5:30 in the morning and Trev was up to workout in our home gym.  I was running a little late (since I was running with a friend that morning) and as I was walking out the door Trev said let's say prayer.  I told him I was late and didn't have time and walked out the door.  As I was putting on my shoes in the garage I had a thought...you always have time to pray.  So I walked back inside and we said prayer.  I came home 2 hrs later to hear Trev tell me what happened and instantly become so thankful I took the time to pray.

He said he heard someone ringing the doorbell non stop at 6:15 in the morning which made him mad cause who does that right.  So he goes to the front door which is opening and closing a few times as he is walking to it.  He can hear a ladies voice and Corbin's too.  The lady is telling Corbin to go inside.  Trev opens the door to Corbin still in his pi's being brought back by some lady we have never seen. She told us she found him on the street behind our house.  I am not sure how but luckily he knew what house to come back to.  He said he was looking for me so he came downstairs(which he normally does but he goes into trevs studio and watches him workout), pulled a chair over from the kitchen table and undid the dead bolt and the chain we have on the door and let himself out

It could of been a disaster.  It could of been the worst day of my life....literally..... if someone else had found him, but I know it was because we had just prayed for him to watch over our family and keep them safe.  I know things sometimes seem like coincidences or just luck but I like to look at them as small miracles he blesses us with.   I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father that instead of that day being the worst day of my life it is a day I was able to see his hand in our lives.

Ashley Got married

Little Ashley got married....how am I old enough to have a niece who is married?  I am so happy for her because she got her self a good one.  It was fun all the things we got to do before....

She had a bachelorette party, a bridal shower and went through the temple for the first time


I did her hair for her wedding and I think it turned out good even though it caused me so much stress just thinking about doing it.

The twins outside the temple waiting for Ashley to come out

Fun Fun Fun


More summer randomness...

Jade and Davyn gained a love for salad. I am serious they will eat the lettuce and dip it in the dressing.  I had made me a salad and they insisted on eating most of it and every time after that wanted to eat it when they say me eating one.

Jade....

Davyn...stopping to say cheese while eating salad

Trev hooked up the sprinkler one day to the tramp and the kids had a blast jumping with him in the water.

Corbin fell and hit the door handle which left a nice little mark by his eye.



We had "P" day again.....everything is done with a "P".  We stay in our pj's all day.  We had pancakes and pork(bacon) for breakfast.  We played potato heads and playdoh.  We had pork (hot dogs) and pasta(mac n cheese) for lunch.  It was a fun day.  Trev even showed the kids how to roast their own hot dogs on the kitchen stove.  Now they want to do it every time they eat hot dogs.
