When it Rains it Pours

So as if carrying twins for 9 months, and being on bed rest, and then having to deliver two babies wasn't enough - I then 5 weeks later had appendicitis and had to have surgery to get my appendix removed. I worked so hard to not have a C-section and then had to be cut open anyways! Now I just recently found out that I have mono! Trying to care for 4 kids, and 2 of them newborns on top of all this has been a challenge! But I have to say I feel more blessed than ever to have such healthy children and such amazing family and friends! We have been well cared for! So thank you to all who have been there for us these past 4 or so months!! My trials seem trivial in comparison to what others endure. So we have had an outpouring of trials, an outpouring of blessings, and an outpouring of love and support!!

Blessings (plural)

So we blessed MaKelle and Daxton on July 6th and it went beautifully! Blake did an awesome job and all of our family was there. Very memorable! Dax wore the same blessing outfit that Brock and Corbin wore and MaKelle wore my blessing dress which I thought looked pretty dang good for how old it was. (Thanks Mom!) It was a fun but busy day! Here are a few pics of the day!






THE WHOLE FAM



This is what we did when it was all over. It was so cute that Corbin crawled up on Blake and fell asleep!

Big Belly

As I was looking through some pictures to post I came accross the picture of my pregnant belly taken the night before the twins were born and I couldn't believe how big I was. I dont remember being that BIG!

AFTER

4th of July

We had a FUN 4th going to the parade, being lazy, going to Blake's cabin and of course FIREWORKS! We were all so worn out by the end of the day that we almost needed to take a day off just to catch up!

Announcing....

So I finally got around to making an announcement and sending it out. So I thought I would share it with you all!
