June 13th...one year.

Last year, on June 13th, my mom passed away from Cancer...mulitple Myloma...I can not believe that it truely has been one whole year. I have a strange feeling inside while thinking about this. I miss her alot, and everyday I wish I could still call her, see her, be her support when she needed it most. Going through that last year at such a young age was one of the hardest trials I have ever been through. losing your mom at the age of 26 is a terrible thing, I can't image being any younger. It makes me sad that she will not get to my children as they grow older, and that Lilee and Kella will not know her. I remember I had just found out that I was pregnant with Kella one week before she died. I was thinking to myself...how I am possibly going to take care of my mom and be sick and pregnant on the couch puking...I was terrified, my mom needed a lot of assistance and it was a really hard thing to have to go through. My mom was living with us at the time, and I am soo very grateful for the time I had with her. I will cherish those last couple of months FOREVER. I miss my mom everyday, but I know I will see her again.. I actually am going to be doing her Temple Work next Saturday, and extremely excited to be doing that for her. I can't wait! Im sure the spirit will be sooo strong. I have not been to the temple in a long time, and am looking forward to the experience I am about to embark on. I know my mom has been despartely waiting. Anyways- I just wanted to remember her for a minute on blogger, and like I always say, I can not believe how fast time truely does fly. It's scarey.

My two beauties...

I {HEART} these little girls.

school....

This first block of summer is almost over, and Im soo excited...although the next blocks starts right away! Im glad that I got one block done and it's not new anymore. Just life and something I need to get use too! I do love going to school tho, it gives me sort of....my own identity. No one knows my husband and kids, and it just kind of lets me be me...if that makes sence. Not that I don't like being connected to my family, but I like being me also! we will see how the rest of the summer goes, I have only had math this block, and it's been SOOO super busy. Trying to learn a Math book in 6 weeks is NUTS!

Nothin new.

Here's a couple pics I took with my cell phone, nothing new lately going on, I started school again, so that has kept us pretty busy! Anyways- these girls are cute, so here's a couple pics.

Chubby Babies make me happy....

Love them.

Not too much happening lately...

we came to vernal a couple days ago, and lilee has been playing outside nonstop with the nice weather. I traced her with chalk and when I came back later that day she had drawn hair, a dress, braclets and a face on it, and she said "Im pretty, huh mom!" It was sooo cute! Here is some more of our sidewalk art, and a quilt I quilted while I was here too. Then here's just a cute little shot of Kella Bug...

Today was Kella's blessing day...Preston did such a great job! Im so grateful to have him in our lives, he's such a great dad! Anyways- Kella looked so cute in her dress, and I love this one with the bonnet. She didn't wear the bonnet, but it looks cute in the picture! LOVE HER. so glad she's part of this little family.
