The big 5!

Little Sammy turned 5!

I can not believe that it's been 5 years since I held that little blue bundle in my arms and kissed his little hands and cheeks. I can not believe that tomorrow it will be 5 years from the day that I gave my son the best life he could have had. I placed him in the arms of his forever family. I did the Lords will and I have never regretted that choice.

Sam is turning into the smartest little cuddle bug. He is still soooo little! He is still in his car seat because he only weighs 32 lbs!! Can even imagine how teeny he is!?! I love him so much!

Hadleigh and I went to his birthday party Friday night... which was his real birthday. Alex always makes the best food. I wish I liked to cook and could cook like her. She is an amazing woman. I could only hope to be like her one day. We had yummy soups and breads. Then we had a football cake and Farr's Playdough ice cream.

He is really into Star Wars right now so I got him some gun from the first set that came out. I didn't know the character but Pono did so he said it was a good present. I like Star Wars but I'm not one to attend ComicCon. That is more of a thing that my brothers would do.

Here are some pictures I took with my phone. Our camera was dead. Dang it!

Time flys when you're a mommy and busy!

I can't believe how very fast this month is going! First we had General Conference and that was amazing. I had a little break down Friday night so the spiritual uplifting was especially for me. I can't even tell you which was the best talk because they all were! We went over to my parents for a day of grazing and hearing the Prophets speak. It was so fun to have all 3 of my kiddies with me cuddling.

Then we had a busy week of babysitting, overtime, school and we managed to get a date in there. Jordon is so great with working lots of overtime for us. He is such a hard worker and I know that he gets that from his amazing father. I did get to go to Idaho Falls with Venus and Hadleigh. It was fun to spend time with my mother-in-law. I am lucky to be close to her. Sometimes I am even closer with her than with my own mother.

This past week Jordon worked 5 nights in a row.... which is a lot! Imagine your husband working from 6:45 pm to 9:30 am 5 nights in a row. It was crazy!! I missed him a lot and so did Hadleigh. She would ask for her Dada all day and when he would get up she just wanted to climb all over him and cuddle him and Jordon did a pretty good job with it.

We went down to Utah to go to a business conference for Jordon's other job. He is doing a thing called ACN and it is really a great opportunity for us. We stayed at Skyler and Natalie's Friday night and it was super fun! We went to Zupas for dinner and then rented a scary movie. The movie was scary but ended horrible! EVERYONE... I mean everyone died!! Well, they were killed but still. Horrible, horrible ending. Saturday was filled with ACN training and we ended our trip with some Tsunami Sushi!!! Yum yum!

Yesterday I taught my Young Women's class. It was a hard lesson but the girls did great participating. I struggle with getting up so early to go to church but when I think about the girls and my baby and my eternal glory it makes it a lot easier. Now I just have to figure out how to get this 2 day headache to go away!

Have a boo-tiful week!!
