Moab Madness 2017!


We made it to MOAB!!!!! Our annual Moab Madness trip is one of the highlights of the year for me. My family has been going to Moab since I was about ten years old. There were only a handful of times where I wasn't able to make it, that's over twenty years of trips to Moab. I LOVE IT!!!  I love having the opportunity to show others my love for Moab, starting with Matt when we first went 11 years ago, and now with my own kids. They now look forward to it every year, it is the BEST!!!


I took the photo on the left in 2012, and the photo on the right this year (2017). It is pretty crazy the difference five years can make. Love my cute family!


This year, on Friday, we decided to go to Hole N' The Rock and the kids loved it!


Shortly after we decided to hike Wilson's Arch (which we hiked as a family two years ago). The kids were a little nervous of the height, but we made it to the top!


On Saturday, while Matt studied and the kids hung out with my mom, my brother and hiked Delicate Arch. it has been years since I have hiked this iconic arch and it was just as breathtaking as ever.


Saturday night we had our annual family reunion dinner at my aunt Emily's church. These three girls are the cutest best friend cousins!

The whole gang!


Our trip couldn't be complete without a LOT of swimming! We swam several times each day we were down, it was wonderful! I am so happy Abby is such an avid swimmer, she is learning a lot and doing great. Liam did pretty good, as long as daddy was there to keep him safe.

So thankful for another amazing trip to Moab!

Our Crazy Life! (Photos from January & February)


Hanging out with family! We don't get to see our family from California as much as we like so we are soaking up every second!


his HUGE icicle was hanging off the back of our house. It's bigger than Liam!!! ❄❄❄


Slumber Party Time!


I think these two like each other a little bit. 😉 #bffcousins


Just a couple of the guys.


Our puppy Sky!


What a handsome boy!


I drew this for my boss, who plays the violin, she LOVED it!


Today Liam's preschool class went on a field trip to the dentist...the best part was we visited his dentist. He was pretty excited!


The sky is on fire!


He's been entertaining himself like this for an hour.


My moms cat decided it needed to sit on my lap...I'm not sure how I feel about this. #catsarenotmyfriends #getthisthingoffofme #ughhhhhhhh


Abby reading to Liam has to be the cutest thing ever!


My cute little Thing 1 and Thing 2!


Took us all day but we created these cardboard box "masterpieces" today. Abby is having a Kindy 500, so that's why we made hers, and Liam didn't want to be left out. It was fun being a little creative with our day off.


I love Abby's kindergarten class at Barnett! They do so many fun things like the Kindy 500. The kids loved it!!


My baby girl is loosing teeth like crazy!



This cute boy is a bit obsessed with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, as of late. So cute because I LOVED them too when I was young. So fun to see things come full-circle.

11 years and counting!

It's hard to believe me and this silly boy have been married for 11 years. Despite his silliness (or craziness if we are being honest), I can't imagine my life without him. He makes me feel safe, secure, content, and happy with life. He makes me want to try harder and be better. Love you Matt!


We're on our way to go do something fun for our anniversary and we get stuck in traffic...yay?!


An hour later and we are still stuck in traffic. Stay off the I-15 if you're in south Utah county and heading north.

We finally made it to the Springville Art Museum. They had an amazing highschool student collection, we were very impressed. We don't get to spend time at museums as much as we would like, it was really fun.
