I love this girl's style

She has a sign on her wall that she made that says; "Why fit in when you were born to stand out?" :-) Love it. 

Clouds

These are the clouds that I saw on my way to the ISU ASL Immersion Weekend. They were amazing!  

Welcome Autumn

We love fall time! 

Sweet Ava

Happy Birthday to my sweet girl Ava. She is one of the most friendly, thoughtful, creative, fun, beautiful, smart, sunshiny people I know and I feel so blessed to be her Mama.

A Great Day

Ava got baptized today and everything went so well. It was a busy but awesome day. I'm so proud of my girl. 

Sister visits!

In the past month I've got to have visits from two of my sisters! I love my family so much!

Smith Winter Olympics 2014

My mom is an amazing babysitter. She had the kids; do a relay to carry the torch through the house, then they made their countries flags and mascots and finally the games began. They will be doing all the different events as she keeps babysitting them over the next few weeks (I have a morning class at ISU). And honestly their other grandma comes up with super fun projects for them too when she tends them. We sure are blessed. Now we'll need to be sure to watch the real Olympics with the kids!

It's Been Awhile...

Expect to be hearing more from me soon.
