An AMAZING weekend!

Last night Hillary Weeks (A very popular LDS musician) came to town and did a private concert for Whitni Reese's family and close friends. It was certainly AMAZING! She is so funny and personable. There was a really small group in the Old Relief Society house in Washington, UT. She spent two hours talking and singing and playing some of her songs.

(Kandice Cluff, Jill Cluff, Whitni Reese, Kate Bair, and Hillary Weeks)
We laughed, we cried, and a few of us had the opportunity to share thoughts and feelings and our testimonies. It really was a fantastic night. I'm so glad she took the time to come. Whitni told of her experience of having a blessing from Elder Jeffrey R. Holland. It was definitely a night I will NEVER forget!
Me and the girls also spent some time at Grumpa and Grandma's house and in the hot tub. It was perfect since it has been cold and rainy since we got here! I also took advantage of the babysitter (my parents) and went to Massage Envy and cashed in on an hour massage that Ben gave me. It was just what I needed. It has really been a relaxing and spiritually uplifting couple of days!

President's Day Weekend

Well, it snowed and snowed in Fredonia! Serena and her family came down but I didn't get any good pictures to share. We had a great time and mostly stayed inside out of the cold weather and played a few rounds of some intense Rook.

Here are the Three Musketeers, Emma, McKayla, and Holdyn.
Here is our dog that I currently can't stand. I know she is just a puppy, but for crying out loud! She was doing pretty good when Ben was around and working with her, but I don't spend any time playing with her and she has loads of energy that she takes out on everything around....oh how I miss Bella! I keep hoping little Daisy will grow out of this puppy stage FAST!

Grumpa's birthday Party

My dad is lucky enough to have his birthday on Valentine's Day....just ask him how lucky he is :)

Anywho, here are a few pictures of a couple of "valentine couples" I snapped at the birthday party!
Cute mom and dad.

Since Ben is gone :( I didn't have my Valentine with me this year.

Daddy goes to Houston Texas!

Here is one last snuggle with daddy before he took off on the two day drive to Houston, TX! He's been gone two weeks and we've got 5 more to go! We love you and miss you Daddy!!!!

"Together" Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Utah/Idaho Chapter

Here is a video from the CF foundation, watch for a picture of Holdyn helping Kimber with her treatment. I just got this in an email from the CFF and watched it for the first time with the girlio's. They were both so excited to see the other kids that have vests, and doing their treatments. They'd shout out, "His vest is blue!" They were so excited to see that other kids have to go through the same thing that little Kimber does....oh PS, I bawled my eyes out!
