Hot Air Balloon Ride

We thought it would be a fun date to go on a hot air balloon ride together. It was absolutely amazing and so peaceful way up high in the sky.

Irish Balloonists' Prayer:

The winds have welcomed you with softness.
The sun has blessed you with his warm hands.
You have flown so high and so well that
God has joined us together in laughter and set us
gently back into the loving arms of Mother Earth.









Nerf Guns

Marley and Miles enjoy playing Nerf guns after school with friends in the neighborhood. One child has the Nerf gun and must hit a friend and then they are it. There are usually 6-7 kids running around outside together. Here is a pic of Miles and Matix running away from some of the girls. It is so fun to have so many kids in our neighborhood!

Valentine's Day

For Valentine's Day each year we have a special family breakfast together. We light heart candles and make heart pancakes with sprinkles along with other yummy foods. This year puppy, Lilly Ann, Sophie, and Maci ate with us too. Valentine's Day is one of my favorite holidays!:)




Payson

We enjoyed a little weekend trip to Payson with Brad's family in January. There was an amazing park that we spent a lot of time at with the kids. Brad and I were able to sneak away for a little hike in the mountains while Mars and Miles enjoyed playing card games and having their own room to hang out and watch Sponge Bob in with Taylor and Brooklynn. It's always fun to get away to the mountains!
