 Madison, I'm thankful for your desire to choose the right and be baptized and confirmed a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints. I know that your Father in Heaven knows and loves you very much. I hope you always remember this special day and that you continue to choose the right and be a loving example to those around you. You are such a sweet girl and I'm so blessed to have you for a daughter. I love you!!

 It was so nice to share this special day with family and friends.

Happy Thanksgiving!

My parents and Michele came to visit our family for Thanksgiving and Madison's baptism. They left early Wednesday morning in the snow and got here safely that night. It was nice spending quality time laughing and playing games together.

 Lexie helped Nana make her yummy rolls!

I made this cake for Michele's birthday.

I missed Michele's birthday so while she was here I wanted to through a little birthday party for her. I made her a cake and gave her a willow tree figure of two sister together called Heart and Soul. I love my sister Michele with my whole heart and soul and I really enjoyed having her here with me.

We played several games of Sequence together.

Madison got her first set of scriptures from her Grandma Skabelund.

We love you Michele!

We have SNOW!!

 We woke up this morning to snow. The kids were so excited to go out and play in it. It's not a lot of snow and it will probably all melt by the end of the day, but the kids were really happy to see it.

Hedrick Voices Group

 Lexie tried out for voices and made it. She had to sing Butterfly Fly Away by Miley Cyrus acapella in front of her choir class. She was really nervous but she did it good and made the team.

Goodbye Buster

We said goodbye to our sweet Buster today. It was very hard seeing him go, but he is going to a great home where he is going to be very loved. The sweet family that adopted Buster use to have a chihuahua and they took him everywhere with them. They said that they were finally ready to get a new dog, they saw our ad on craigslist and everything just fell into place. Buster is going to be one spoiled, happy little dog. We love you Buster!

Bryson's Birthday

Happy 4Th Birthday Bryson!

I can't believe how fast my little boy is growing! Here are four things I really love about Bryson;
1. He really loves his mom! The first words to come out of his mouth when he wakes up ever morning are "Mom...I love you."
2. He always notices the beauty around him. He loves sunsets, the night sky, trees, and flowers. He loves pointing them out to us.
3. He has a funny sense of humor, he keeps us laughing.
4. Bryson is a very loving and happy boy.
We are so very blessed to have him in our lives. Happy birthday Bryson! We love you!
