Halloween 2011


















My mom put rollers in my hair so I would have ringlets for my Little Bo Peep costume.  Let's just say it was a very VERY long night.  I don't know how I did it EVERY night when I was a kid.  Well I gues I had no choice.  Thanks MOM!
This is Halloween, This is Halloween, Halloween, Halloween, Halloween.  That song has been in my head all day. 

Baby Boy 14 years OLD!



Nicholas turned 14 I CAN"T BELIEVE IT!  It seems like just a few years ago and he was learning how to walk and talk.  He was so spoiled but very cute.  He has grown into a very handsome young man who respects others, loves the Lord and wants the best for his family.  I love you Nicholas.

DiSnEyLaNd 2011

Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Stratton we were able to go to Disneyland for Three Days as a family.  We had so much fun with Grandma, Grandpa, Casey, Heather, Jaida, Caleb, Becham, Amy, Travis, Colton Caitlyn, Kinlee, Kason, and our 7.  Wow it was a hit.  We played and played and played.  My favorite ride has to Splash Mountain, but I also love, It's a Small World, well I guess I loved all of them.  The kids went on all the rides including "The Tour of Terror"  I still can't believe they all went on that ride.  I skipped out and enjoyed waiting for them.  I loved being with the family and enjoying the wonderful world of Disney. I had to giggle throughout the day because it is supposed to be the "Happiest Place on Earth" but everywhere you went kids were crying and parents were yelling.  I loved it.  Are last trip was right after we first got married, the kids were young and got tired.  This year the big kids were able to go off on there own with each other and meet us every three hours.  They LOVED the independence and I have to say it was fun for us to. ;).

6 Year Anniversary


Our Special Day!  10/5/2005


SIX YEAR!  I can't believe it's been 6 years, it just seems like yesterday that we were going on our first date 2 days before our wedding.  After our wedding we were off to Breckenridge Colorado for our Honeymoon then off to Denver for a Denver Bronco's game and University of Utah and Colorado University football games. We had so much fun being together and enjoying the beauty of Breckenridge.  It snowed the first night we were there and it was gorgeous.  The Denver Bronco's game was so so fun, it rained the entire time but being in that huge stadium with some crazy fans and enjoying excitement wow it was awesome.

I have married the most wonderful man in the world and I want to prove it.

Wants to serve.

Loves to serve.

Hard Worker.

He will do anything for anyone.
He NEVER thinks of himself, everyone else is more important.
Never complains.
Can clean a bathroom better than anyone.

I love you Corry!

2011 St. George Marathon

Ok my sister is one of those CRAZY people that decide that running for 4-5 hours is fun and good for them. Although I think this is silly we go to support her in her efforts. I have to admit just seeing the runners as they run thru the 26 mile point I was very emotional for them. Tears were in my eyes not even knowing who they were. I could see their pain and see them fight for every step they make. I'm proud of Emily for her dedication and hard work, and proud of all those others that I know that ran this marathon. Emily made a cute shirt for Gus to wear as a proud son 26.2 he looked so cute!
