Megan and Ryan's Wedding - Congratulations

The Grand America with Daddy

The kids where lucky enough to stay at the Grand America with their Daddy while I was out of town on a woman's retreat. They had so much fun, I only got a few pictures of them in the hotel room when I dropped them off. Joe took them swimming, to the spa (my sister Megan is a massage therapist and runs the spa), swimming, out to dinner at California Pizza Kitchen and The Princess and the Frog. Needless to say they had a BLAST!!! Joe you are the BEST, you put me to shame. When you are out of town all I do is put them to bed early, boring. It's a good thing their Daddy if so FUN!!! Love you

Discovery Land Gateway-Christian's Field Trip

Cabin Fever

The Grover's planed a fun, family get away after the holidays for our Christmas present. It was great to get away and relax. The kids had a blast hanging with their cousins for 3 days straight. We played lots of games, watched movies, opened more presents, went out to dinner and of course sledding. It was a blast. Thanks Mom and Dad Grover We loved it!!

Christmas Eve/Day

Christmas was crazy but fun. We first had Christmas Eve with the Grover side, then the Murphey side, it was lots of fun and great food. I had a blast being Santa's little helper this year more then ever. Being settled in our new home was lots of fun. We decided 3 Christmas in one day was just too much, so we celebrated our Christmas on the 26th which made it a lot more enjoyable and we where able to spread the cheer for a few more days. Christmas morning was spent with the Grover's and we had a lovely breakfast, opened presents and the kids played. Later we went down to Highland to spend the remainder of the day with my family. It was a wonderfully crazy Christmas Day and we were so glad we waited to do ours the next day. We have our Christmas Eve at home, the kids set out Christmas cookies for Santa and carrots for the reindeer, put on their new PJ's and headed to bed. Meanwhile Joe and I started to set up presents and stuff stockings. Luckily I had already wrapped everything, so it went pretty fast and we where off to bed. I was great being able to relax and take our time Christmas morning. It was a wonderful Christmas. Merry Christmas. We love you all

Gingerbread House with Nana!!!

Murphey's Temple Square Tradition

We love to see the lights at Temple Square and feel of the Spirit there. It was cold and we got separated from one another and it was super crowded but it is always a lot of fun and well worth it. Thanks for a fun night on the town family. We love you!

Annual Miner Christmas Party

The Annual Miner Christmas Party starts with a delicious spread of ham, potatoes, salad, rolls, and of course jello. Following is the talent show, Mercedes would have entertained us for the whole night if we let her. Christian shared some of his Karate moves and performed Universal Order, he did awesome. We sang songs and caught up with one another while having dessert. It is so fun to see the little cousins play with one another. We are so blessed to be apart of such a wonderful family, that is so close. Thanks to my mom and dad for all their hard work, preparing for a wonderful evening with family.

Happy 7 Year Anniversary- Johnsom Mill Bed and Breakfast

Joe and I spent a wonderful weekend at the Johnson Mill Bed and Breakfast in Midway. It was gorgeous, with lots of snow. We had a delicious dinner at the Bear Dance Cafe and loved the hot breakfast at the B&B. It was short and sweet but enough. The kids had a blast with my family, and we are so appreciative to them for watching them. Happy Anniversary Joe I love you. Thanks for a amazing weekend.
