The Big Graduation............

Last month Kevin graduated from the University of Wyoming Law School. It was three years of really hard work on his part and I couldn't have been prouder! We had so many family members who joined us for the big day. It made us so happy to have all of our love ones join us to celebrate his accomplishment.There is no way we could have done it without their love and support.
Three years ago we sold our first home in Layton, left a relatively cozy life and moved to Cowboy Country with our three week old son. While there we were introduced to real wind, cold Wyoming winters, and what its like to be poor Grad students. We made some really great friends in Laramie,spent the best summer in Washington D.C., Kevin was named Editor And Chief of Law Review, and we topped it all of with a new addition to the family Eva Grace. All in all Wyoming was really good to us. We are super glad we went to Law School and super glad it is over!



















Moments That Matter Most

Happy Father's Day



" The Sacred title of 'father' is shared with the Almighty. In the Church men are called and released. Did you ever hear of a mortal father being released?
...Fatherhood is not a matter of station or wealth; it is a matter of desire, diligence, and determination to see one's family exalted in the celestial kingdom. If that prize is lost, nothing else matters."

Happy Fathers Day to all the Fathers in my life!

Their sweet when they sleep

Life doesn't get much better when you wake up to this sight in the morning

Or when your two year old request that he sleep with his picture of Jesus next to him and takes a mid-day nap with ease....

I am so grateful I don't have to miss these moments anymore!

A whole bunch of randomness.....



Iam still playing caught up and as I was going through my phone I found a bunch of pictures I needed to put on here. So, here we go....




THE PETTING ZOO
Back in May Porter, Eva, and I went to the Petting Zoo with my preschool class. Porter had so much fun looking at all the animals. He talked about it for days after, Eva was equally excited so excited that she slept through the whole thing.







RANDOMNESS

Porter Loves Cowboys in fact I hear daily the phrase, " I am a real cowboy mommy!"

My attempt at being a photographer to say the least it didn't work out so well

Playing Caught Up.....

I have severely neglected my blog, its time to catch up! A lot has occurred since I last posted. Eva is growing like a week and getting cuter everyday. Kevin graduated from Law School and I couldn't be prouder of him. It was great to watch him achieve something he worked so hard for. After graduation we moved to Aurora, Utah of all places to begin a new chapter in our little families life. Kevin got a Judaical Clerkship for the Sixth Judicial District based out of Richfield. It is a two year clerkship and we are glad to be back in Utah and close to our families. I have pictures for all of these events but we will start way back at Easter.
Easter was alot of fun this year even though we celebrated with just our little family. Porter was really into everything from painting the eggs to waiting for the Easter Bunny. We kept telling him that the Easter Bunny would come and hide the eggs. Well he must have thought that meant we play hide -n- seek with the Easter Bunny because he kept going to the corner and yelling, " I hide from the Easter Bunny Mom!"
