Here are some pictures from my nephew Bradlee's Birthday party last month. The kids had a lot of fun-- they loved hanging out with their cousins, and the Backyardigan's theme!! Good party Megan!!
Ang you tagged me!! I knew if I just waited long enough.....
This is a picture of aunt Amy holding baby Dyson the day after he was born...her reward for spending the entire day at the hospital with the rest of my family the day before!!
I tag Brooke and Marie....
This is a picture from the Hofheins family halloween party we had a few weeks before Halloween. Dyson, Olivia, and Lawson were all born within a few months of each other. So cute!!
We had Dyson blessed in Sacrament Meeting last Sunday. It was such a special day. Derick did a beautiful job and the spirit was so strong. We had both of our families up, and everybody was able to come except for Derick's brother Chris, who had to work. The day was so nice, and it was really neat that Derick and I were able to bear our testimonies in Sacrament Meeting with both of our families there. It is so important for me for my family to know that I have a testimony of Jesus Christ and His atonement. After Sacrament Meeting we all went back to the house and had lunch. Thanks everybody for helping me with all of the food!! We were a little short on house space because we are still in the middle of remodeling the girls' bedroom, but we all squeezed in! Good thing we love each other! We had 16 children--14 under the age of 6!!! The day went great and I feel so blessed for all of the things Heavenly Father has given me!
One week ago Derick and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary so I thought it would be appropriate to share with you all 7 things that I love most about Derick... bear with me...
His love for....
1. Me. He still loves me. Every day.
2. His kids. This includes loving all things girl- such as Barbie Fairytopia. And he changes more diapers than me.
3. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ.
4. Singing. I fell in love with his voice when I first heard him sing. He still sings to me.
5. Writing. Derick has such a natural ability to write. Especially song-writing. My favorites are the ones inspired by me...go figure.
6. The group Bare Naked Ladies...he keeps me laughing and looking at the fun side of life...even if this band drives me absolutely crazy!
7. Our future. I love his ambition and all the goals he sets for himself. Sometimes hard to keep up with...but inspires me nonetheless...
Okay- thank you all for letting me wax cheesy for a moment... Derick I love you!!
We are finally remodeling our girls bedroom!! Yeah!! We are so excited to get it done! What a blessing! Here are some fun pictures of the work in progress!
Brooklyn started Kindergarten this year! This is her on her first big day! She thinks she is all grown up now, and she didn't even want me to walk her to school...but I made her let me come!!
