Where the first copies of the Book of Mormon was printed and published.


Alvin Smiths grave ( Joseph Smiths brother)


The Peter Whitmer Farm


A home where the first Book of Mormon was handed out and where the first meetings were held when the church was first organized. Also where Brigham Young first bore his Testimony. This is not an official church site,we were lucky enough to have a member of the seventy take us on a tour of this home which he had previously owned at one time. He hopes that one day the church will buy this home.

The Hill Cummorah.

My awesome friend Sarah and I . It was so nice of her and her family to invite us along on this once in a lifetime trip!

The Sacred Grove, what else can I say but Spiritual I will never forget that place!

The Palmyra Temple, Beautiful!

Now we are in New York City for the second half of our trip. The Wax Museum where Warren was getting frisky with Jennifer Lopez!

Wicked was my favorite part of the second leg of our trip. I can't wait to see it again!

The Manhattan Temple, very unique but fit right into the City!

We had brunch at the well-known Tavern on the Green in Central Park.

The Empire State Building.

This day we not only saw the Statue of Liberty but we also saw Ellis Island and the site of the Twin Towers.

Here we are on the last day of our trip in our Hotel overlooking time square. It was so great to spend this time with my husband, we will never forget it. Thank you to you all who watched our children we really appreciated it!

Carson's Baptism!

Saturday, June 11th was Carson's Baptism. What a special day it was for him and everyone who was there to share it with us. I am so proud of Carson for choosing to be baptized. What a cute kid he is and full of personality. It was also exciting to have Warren Baptize Carson, he did a great job! After the Baptism we all came back for a luncheon and we put up our blowup water slide for the kids to enjoy. As you can see from the last pictures the girls were beat.

Eysten & Sagan's Wedding

Friday my step-brother Eysten got married . What a fun day for family, we are so excited to have Sagan and Piper in our family. Here are a few cute pics of the day!

A Camping we will go.....

Last weekend we had a family cub scout campout at Willow Park. Carson was welcomed in as the newest scout and he was thrilled. It was a fun evening despite the mosquito's. We ate dinner, awards were given, the kids played and the adults visited. There was a little drama at the beginning of the evening when Warren realized as he was about to set up our tent that the poles to the tent were up at East Fork of the Bear with the Boy Scouts where he was a day earlier. We were lucky enough to borrow two tents from our Cub Master, Bernice. She definitely saved the day. I thought maybe we were going to luck out and head home to our nice cozy beds. Warren was going to have none of that he was already on the phone with his mom asking her to bring us a tent. Everything worked out except for our sweet, sassy baby who kept us up all night. She is the reason why I don't look forward to camping. The next day I took a 4 hr. nap and I'm not a napper. She wears me out!!

CALLED TO SERVE!!

What an exciting day we had on Wednesday. My brother and step-brother both received their mission calls. My brother Skyler in the last picture is going to Tegucigalpa, Honduras Spanish speaking mission. My step-brother Colton in the middle picture is going to Mesa, Arizona. They both go to the M.T.C. on September 16th. We had such an exciting night we met at my mom's at 6:30 to watch my brother open his call and then at 8:30 we drove to Farr West to my dad's to watch my step-brother open his call. We are so impressed with these two young men for setting such a great example for all of us and especially for my two boys. I am such a proud sister today!!

Happy 85th....

Monday June 8th was Grandma White's 85th Birthday! I took the kids to surprise her on her birthday with balloons and cake. She was so excited! We had a good time visiting with her and I realized how long it had been since I took the kids to see her. I need to do better I want my kids to know all their grandparents and have long lasting memories of them. We love Grandma White and of course she showered us with lot's of kisses!

Happy Birthday Baylee!

My baby is two, I seriously want to cry! June 5th was Baylee's second Birthday. She loves Dora the Explorer, so we did Dora cupcakes and Dora Balloons. Baylee got a lot of neat gifts for her Birthday but her favorite of them all was the swing we gave her. She begs everyday all day to go out side and swing on her new swing! The whole time she's swinging she says higher mommy higher. She's still our little runt. I think it's hilarious when I take her to the store everyone says under their breaths look at that little mini girl. She's still of course our sassy, wild, cute little ball of sweetness. I just can't get enough of her!
