Quarter of the way!





Dallin hit his 6 month mark and life is good! He is seriously the best missionary and loves it so so much and is so happy! The past 6 months have flown by but gone slowly at the same time. I finally feel like i'm getting closer to seeing him again. I love receiving his emails and letters and learning about the people he is teaching and watching him grow. For his family "emails" he sends voice messages so I get to hear him actually speak about his week and it is just awesome! I feel so spoiled that I get those voicemails,emails every week, and letters too. He is in Mukah, Malaysia right now and is opening up that little town with his companion. When he first got there they had 20 people at church and now they have 80 including their investigators! How awesome is that? They even have to build a new building because of how much the church has grown there. It is amazing and I don't know how he has the time to teach how many people he is but he is doing awesome and I am so so proud of him. He has helped me strengthen my testimony through the experiences he has shared with me and I am so glad he is where is right now! HAPPY 6 MONTHS!!!

Birthday Boys!

February is an exciting month for me! I'm so happy it is here.. This month my 3 boys all have birthdays 3 days in a row!
Tylers birthday is Today the 12th. Last night for his birthday my sister an I went over to his house and brought him some treats.. I told him I made them just for him but they were really made a few days ago and he knew I was lying haha. Anyways we brought him a birthday hat and sang happy birthday. He told us he wanted us to do his laundry for him for his present. Easy enough! When he still lived at home I would fold his laundry literally every day he has more clothes than Sandra and I combined, I know he has missed that. So we did all the laundry and even color coded his clothes hanging up haha. We had a good time. Happy Birthday Ty I love you!

Dallins birthday is tomorrow the 13th! For his birthday he got a package full of goodies from me and lots of letters from my family and a birthday card I also sent him this picture of christ framed that he loves. I loved putting it together and I was so excited for him to get it. He was supposed to get it the weekend before his birthday but made it a week early so he couldn't wait to open it I'm so glad he liked it all! He is doing great and has an exiting day coming up this week. Stay tuned for that post :) Happy Birthday Elder Parker!

Brandons birthday is on the 14th! He's my moms valentines baby. Were going out to dinner tomorrow for him and Tyler to our favorite family place Rositas! I am so excited to eat that delicious food. Brandon is the most kind and respectful 22 year old I think you will ever meet. He always does what is asked of him and doesn it with a great attitude. He is a good example and I love him so much! Happy Birthday Branny boy!

I love all three of these boys and I'm so thankful for them and for what they each do for me!
