Hazelyn's Blessing Day

Last week I was very emotional as I was preparing for Hazelyn's blessing day.  I called a good friend who is an amazing photographer and asked for her help taking pictures of Hazelyn.  These pictures are so meaningful because Hazelyn is wearing my blessing dress.  I love how these pictures turned out, Hazelyn you are a gorgeous baby!

Sunday was another amazing day for our family, we have been blessed to have so many great experiences the past few months.  Garrett gave Hazelyn a very special blessing, he is such a sweet Dad, our kids are so lucky to have him.  

4 Generations!

Hazelyn Marjean is named after these two amazing ladies, both her Great Grandma's.  She is one lucky girl to have them as examples and we are proud to name our baby after them!

I love my sweet little girl with all my heart.  It is so fun to have a girl.  She is a perfect baby and fits right in our family.  I couldn't imagine my life without her.

I love my siblings dearly and love that they support us in all that we do.  I would not be the person I am today with out them.  I look forward to every time we are all together.  I love you all!

 Hazey is growing so big, already.  She is not even one month old in this picture and is holding her head up very well.

 Garr and the babes on his 29th birthday!

 Harper my #1 helper!  He helps change Hazey's diaper by getting out a wipe for me and is always excited about it.

 Our big strong girl!

 Harper loves to paint.  Once he has made all the colors mixed together he likes to make hand prints.  So fun to me to watch his creativity. 

 I love this little girl.  She looked so cute to go to a family party!

Hazey's eyes get bigger and more blue everyday.  I've loved watching her eyelashes grow, they are already super long!

Who's Who?

I was having Deja vu as I was looking through some pictures of my Babes.  At times Hazey looks exactly like Harper, other times she looks more like me or even her own self.  Thought these were fun to compare.  These babies are definitely related!  Can you tell who is who?

Trampoline Fun

We are really enjoying the beautiful weather the past few weeks. It's fun for Harper to have his Trampoline set back up.

This face makes me laugh every time I look at it! He is such a brave kid, but has such a tender heart. Playing rough with Dad never gets old. Sometimes we forget he is only 2!

Oops - a bit to much Dad

Needing a little love after that face plant!
Then back to the fun

WINNER!

I couldn't resist posting these pictures! I promised I wouldn't put them on Facebook!
Saturday was the Elder's Quorum Shotgun Shootout.
It ended up in a three-way tie with Garrett being the WINNER!
I was shocked when He came home with this fabulous jacket as his prize!
He gets to keep it until next years shootout :)
So proud of you Garr and so glad you had fun with the guys in our ward.

Easter Party on St. Patty's Day!

My Grandma's Easter party is one of my favorite traditions! This year it just happened to be on St. Patrick's Day.

Love this picture of Harper, his cheeks have slimmed down over the months but this makes them look chunky again.

Bustin' a Dance Move! He loves to dance and rock out to music.
Gotta love his tongue sticking out!

So excited about playing "Mother May I" with Grandma Great & Aunt Tenli.

Loading up on his favorite treat - Fruit snacks!

Resting after a fun party, this little boy loves his Daddy!

Thanks to the BEST Grandma out there for keeping this tradition alive! I look forward to this party every year and love to live through Harper and be part of the Money Egg Hunt.

Temple Sealing

Our precious little family just after the most amazing experience of our life. Hazelyn's sweet little spirit was felt very strong, she was calm which is not usual this far along in my pregnancy. I love knowing another piece of heaven will be joining our family soon. She will be a great reminder of why we made the changes we did to be an Eternal Family.
Harper was an absolute Angel. The past week we've been talking to him about going to the temple on our special day and what he should except once we are there. He asked everyday if it was time to go to the Bountiful Temple! He was so sweet in the sealing room, precious moments that will never be forgotten.
Perfect best describes this day!

Me & my best friend Larah.
We have been friends since we were 6 years old. She has been a great example to me and I love having her and her family in my life.

So lucky to have each of these wonderful people in our life, their love and support is endless. My older sister Bri, was at the temple before us, waiting there to give me a hug. A moment I'll never forget.

Best In laws one could ask for. I truly married into an amazing family and love each of them dearly. Each one of them are an example to us.

We have had many great days together as a family, this day tops the list! We now have an Eternity of great days ahead of us!

A HUGE thanks to everyone who came to show their love for us on this very special day, whether you were inside the temple or out, we love and appreciate each of you and the time you took to be with us. Also, thank you to those who weren't able to be with us but had us in your sincere thoughts. We have been surrounded by wonderful people cheering us on through this journey, we couldn't have done it without all of you. We have felt your love and prayers throughout the months, a feeling that is hard to describe, it is one that has to be felt from the heart.
