Happiness

  Jonah and Taylen visited last week so they could do some wedding prep. It was so great to spend time with them and get to know them better! Also, Rosie played outside a lot and Declan had an orchestra concert. It was a lot of fun!  

                             A week after Jonah proposed to Taylen , Anzul proposed to Elizabeth! They plan to get married in January of 2027 in Gilbert. We are so very excited for them!  Lots of neat things happening for us this upcoming year! Hooray!

  Jonah is engaged! He proposed to Taylen Archibald on the shores on Utah lake on Thursday evening. He was nervous for the few days before hand but it all went really well. Her Parents flew out from Gilbert to be there for the event and take pictures. So glad her Mom could send us pictures right away.  We are super excited for them and for them to start a new life together. We're excited to have Taylen as a daughter in law and are thrilled for this whole new adventure for them! They are getting married in the Gilbert Temple in August. Congrats, you two!! We are all smiles over here!

  Rosie was so excited to celebrate her birthday at school and bring treats. They did a fun song about traveling around the world each year and she showed pictures of when she was a baby. One boy next to me said "she is so cute!" and pretended to faint. haha! At In n Out- we love to go there for birthdays- it's close and mostly dairy free! They made her a super cute birthday hat and several people wished her a happy birthday. She soaked up the love! Rosie requested heart waffles with whip cream and sprinkles. This is before the extra toppings! The beautiful sunrise on her special day. ❤ She also requested mermaid cupcakes for her friend party at the park. So fun! A bit windy but a great turnout and they all had fun! Pinata time! Rosie was adamant about this one! Presents at home that evening- it was a busy day! Yay, crafts!!   Happy Birthday, Rosie girl! We love you! We love how you like to play chase games with your friends at recess. You love to tickle on the bed with D...

  Asher has been in Youngstown, Ohio for three transfers now. It's kind of a ghetto area but he loves working with all different kinds of people and he's had great companions as well. Elder Soares came to his mission and that was a really great experience for Asher. Time is flying by and soon we'll get to have him home! He's doing a great work until then.

  Declan's celebration dinner after he completed at the District Spelling Bee. Declan and the other girl- a 7th grader- competing at district. He did a great job and we are super proud of him!
