September Happenings



September has been a good month. It brought the realization that I'm not going back to work this year which was pretty neat. It was nice to be at home and play with my girls instead of going back to work. We have kept pretty busy this month. Erick took a quick trip to Vegas with Stephan to the Mr. Olympia convention. It was a nice break for him and I enjoyed a day of shopping with my mom and sister. We had our primary program today and it was really nice to see the kids singing their little hearts out. I really liked seeing our hard work pay off. We have been having fun with the cousins being in town and are so excited they decided to move to Yucaipa. Its pretty close! All in all life is good. Here are some pictures to highlight the month. They will probably be on top because this website likes to do that now.

Sophie's Blessing

We were very blessed to be able to bless Sophie yesterday. It is amazing how much peace and joy I felt as Erick gave her her name and a blessing. As I was listening I realized that it is my job as a parent to make sure the promises given are fulfilled. What a big responsibility it is to be a parent. The more I am a parent the more joy I feel in the journey and the important role of being a mother. Heavenly Father loves us and will guide us through the Holy Ghost, Scriptures and especially praying for guidance. I am so grateful that I have all those available to me to help me as a parent. It truly is the most important job I will ever hold. Here are some pictures for you to enjoy of our little family. My little bit of "Heaven on Earth."
