A LOT has been going on, first of all some kind of bug has hit our family. And it is slowly making it's way to each of us. Although I have to admit my little guys and I had it EASY compared to what the rest of my family has been feeling. Hopefully it will leave our presence soon. on a happier note...
Today was a
GREAT DAY! Not only is my family altogether {meaning all 7 kids, all of our spouses and all the nieces and nephews, which hasn't happened in a
LONG TIME we actually had a family photo shoot yesterday that went really well} My baby brother Mark gave his mission report today it was so great to see the excitement in his voice as he spoke to the congregation about his missionary experiences and how we all need to be ready and willing to serve. if you knew my brother a few years ago you would not have recognized who he was today on the stand. yes he looks the same physically but his faith and spirit is so STRONG.
Do I dare say that he made me want to do more, to build my own spirituality? YES he did! and I am so proud!
Our family was also all together for the blessing of my sister's twin girls Hailey and Kyra. {plus my Hubby finally got to taste Sergio's Carne Asada, yes we had it twice in one week. but hey it's that good!
let's see some other happenings: Ryszard had his first taste of Chik-fil-a on Friday and has wanted to go there for every meal since {crazy boy} Ryszard was also finally able to meet my brother in law Travis, and I for one am just a little scared at how alike they are. but in a good way. {We were all laughing pretty hard tonight.}
One of my BESTEST friends in the whole world
Amy, took our family pictures on Saturday which with 13 kids, 8 of which are under age 3 was no easy feat. We are all really anxious to see the results. But here are a few my Mom was able to capture:
And a few of my cute boys:
Our little Family:
Brock has been having a lot of fun with his cousins, and I am loving every moment. Nicholas is getting a little more brave everyday. Brock has been talking more and more and more. He is too fun! I can't wait to see what this week will be like.
