I Love This Man!!!

I feel so lucky and blessed to be married to my

best friend- Today is our 13th Anniversary,

and even though we have had a lot of ups and downs-

I wouldn't change a thing!!

And here's where we are 13 years later....

3 of the greatest kids ever, some amazing memories

and a home filled with more love than

could ever be imagined!!

Happy Anniversary Boo!!

I love you more than the mostest!!!

Ireland's 5th Grade Graduation!!

Ireland graduated from elementary on June 2nd-

she is now a big time middle schooler-

she is very ready for the change,

I, on the other hand, am not sure that I'm ready ;)

It was a really nice ceremony- each student

did a power point page for themselves that

listed what their favorite memory of school was,

who inspired them, what college they want to go to

and what they want to be when they grow up-

Ireland's favorite memory was Sky Ranch Camp,

she said her parents are her inspiration (so sweet),

she wants to attend the University of Texas...

(sorry to all of my Utah and BYU fans)-

and she wants to be an architect.

All of her teachers, principals and counselor

told me that Ireland will succeed at

whatever she does in life.

We are so proud of her!!

In celebration for her graduation,

we let her pick where to go for dinner-

she chose Kobe, a Japanese restaurant.

It was a great way to end a great night.

Congratulations Ireland!!

We love you!!
