David and I met on a blind date during the summer of 1990. We were married for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake City temple that November. We just celebrated 20 amazing years together. We are parents to 5 of the greatest kids on earth! There is never a dull moment…....ok, occasionally there is one, but not very often.
CJ is our oldest. He is an awesome kid, talented athlete, musician and student. When CJ is around there is never a dull moment. He doesn't act like a teenager very often and we hope it stays that way.
KC is our second oldest. He has a heart a big as anyone I know! He is talented beyond words and has the ability to accomplish anything he sets his mind to. He has been on quite a journey these past few months since his football injury. If there is one thing I know about KC, it is that he will come back stronger than ever. This particular picture is special to me because it was the last time we were together as a family with grandpa Rex. these are some of the last pictures we have of him. It was KC's ordination as a teacher.
The triplets arrived in 2003. Life as we knew it changed forever in that one moment. We can’t imagine life without them now. People always ask, “Are they different?” the answer is absolutely yes! As different as you can be.
Alexis is the oldest of the triplets and that make her our third child. She is full of energy and love. Her glass is always half full and her rain clouds have the prettiest silver lining you’ve ever seen. She loves to sing and dance and is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. Alexis loves school and is a great student.
Kiersten is fourth and the “middle” triplet. She is inventive and creative beyond words. She LOVES to read and you can often find her studying up on a certain topic. WARNING: ask about Egypt at your own risk. She still loves playing dress up and little girl things, but is becoming a young woman faster than I want her to. She has a beautiful clear voice and sings more than she speaks.
Madilynn is our youngest, but only by a few minutes. She is my best helper, and is becoming quite the chef. Madilynn loves to take care of “babies” and is always concerned about others. Often times Madi starts out slow but usually ends up on top. She never gives up or stops trying until it’s the way she wants it to be! She loves animals, real and stuffed, and still loves to cuddle up on my lap. She will always be my baby. 
We added Sugar to the bunch just over a year ago. She IS a member of the family in every way! She loves to sit on David’s lap while he works, and is just as happy to run around and chase the kids (or the birds) in the backyard! We LOVE her! She is half Yorkie half Pomeranian. some say she is a "porkie"! it's a cute name when you are only 6 lbs.
