Daddy and Emma

BEFORE YOU WATCH THIS SCROLL DOWN AND PRESS PAUSE ON THE MUSIC PLAYER.

I know this is a little late but it is too cute not to share. Emma had so much fun with Tim while we were up in Utah.

Tim came to California

While I was up in Utah Tim decided to take the time off so we could spend it together then we found out that my Mom and Dad were coming down for my nieces blessing so he ended up coming with them. We had decided not to let the boys know he was coming, we wanted to surprise them. So everyone arrived at the house at about 1:00am Friday morning, of coarse I waited up for them. Tim went in and looked at the boys, I know he wanted to wake them up but he didn't. The next morning Tim went out and sat on the couch while I went and woke up the boys for our morning scripture study. Ammon came out first and saw Tim, he had the biggest smile on his face. Next was Brigham, I was holding him and he was definitely surprised. Then we waited and waited and waited and finally after about 2 or 3 minutes of Teancum going to the bathroom and a few other things, he finally emerged out into the living room. He started talking to me then looked up and saw that his dad was sitting on the couch and gave him a giant hug. It was so fun to surprise them with their Dad. We all wish he could have just stayed a little (a lot) longer. On Saturday we had Tim's Family and a few friends up for a BBQ. I think he really enjoyed being able to see everyone and spend some quality time relaxing.

Going to Utah on a Plane

Emma and I went up to Utah on a plane. We were able to spend 6 days up there. Let me tell you I really needed to be able to spend some quality time with Tim all by myself. We were able to do a lot of things together and figure out what we need to do for this time in our lives. We went to the Salt Lake Temple. It was a beautiful day and a much needed trip to the temple.

We took Emma to the park. She loved the swing and Tim had a lot of fun playing with her. When we first got there Emma was asleep so we walked around hoping she would wake up. By the time we got back to the swings she was wide awake and just wanted to stay on the swing.

Out of the mouth of Ammon

Ok so I picked up Ammon from school today, as soon as we started driving away from the school he starts asking me questions. It went something like this.

Ammon: Hey mom,

Mom: What?

Ammon: Why did Jesus make Bad Guys?

Mom: Well he didn't make bad guys, They were born and when they grew up they made bad choices and became bad guys.

Ammon: Well they should have followed Jesus.

Mom: I know

Ammon: I think that if there are grown ups that follow Satan, and Kids that follow Jesus the grown ups need to watch the kids so they can follow Jesus too.

Mom: That's a great Idea.

Ammon: Do you know why I say I love Jesus in my prayers?

Mom: Why?

Ammon: Because I always want to follow him and do whats right. Grown ups should always watch the kids if they follow Jesus so they can be good too.

Mom: I agree!

Ammon amazes me all the time. He has such a wonderful spirit and such a loving heart. He wants everyone to do and be GOOD all the time.
