New Portraits








You are not 4 already are you?

Four years ago we didn't think
that our life could get anymore
exciting until....
This beautiful daughter was
given to us. I thought that I
had got a pretty little girl to
dress up all girlie.....
We could not be more WRONG!
Our lives were never the same
it is more and more of an
adventure everyday.....
We never know what is to come next.


We have loved every minute of it!!!
Happy Birthday Princess we love
you so much and look forward
to many more years!

I can't believe he is 5!!

Five years ago our lives changed forever
never to be the same again.
One of the most precious spirits
was born into our family.
His birth was quite an experience
and it has not slowed down since

He just turned 5 today and I can't
believe it, time has gone by so fast.



Happy Birthday my stripling warrior!
You will never know just how much
you have blessed our lives.

Easter

"I Love the Easter Bunny
he left me all these eggs but I don't
have enough hands..."



Zeb's first Easter but I think
he had the most knowledge
about what Easter is really for.

Asher and Eden's Birthday Party

Asher and Eden's Birthday cake
This is probably the last year we will get
away with having their party together.
Mommy and Daddy got them a scooter
Asher, Rachel, and Zeb gave her a
helmet and pads.
Eden, Rachel, and Zeb gave him
a helmet and pads too a coincidence,
probably not.
Grammie and Grammpie gave them
a DVD and a new dresser.
Grandpa John gave them a dart gun
and darts.
Ashlee Rick and Brody gave them
a hopper I think it was for old times sake...
and their favorite, Fruit Snacks!
Amber gave them a soccer ball,

Do you think that their tastes will
be different someday?




Rachel

Rachel Marie Hewes came to us on the 30th day of January 2009. She made her arrival at 6:16 am. She wieghed 6 pounds 13 onces, and was 19 1/2 inches long.

Big Brother

Big Brother

Worlds best big brother

Asher LOVES being a big brother (to Rachel). He loves to help out, holding, feeding, kissing, and even changing diapers.

Big Sister

Big Sister

One of the worlds big sisters

And then there was Eden... I think she is a little jealous about not being the baby anymore. Eden likes to help out too, poking in the eye, hitting on the head, and shaking her sister. Plus I think that she just doesn't grasp the concept of gentle.

And now there are THREE

We do love our little ones no matter what. You do have to admit we make cute kids.

Third Time Dad

Third Time Dad

Long night

Being a dad has taught me more than any other experience that I have had, and I have had a few. The joy that is felt when you feel instant love. When a child is born you love them so quick you think "is it even possible to love so much so fast".

Mommy and Rachel

How could this not be worth it?

It was a very long night and the longest birth of all three of my children, but the result was a beautiful baby girl sent to us from our Heavenly Father. I didn't think that I could love anyone else but when I first saw this little girl I knew that I loved her and that the Lord loved me for trusting me with her.

"Behold your little ones...."

"Behold your little ones...."
"...he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.... And he spake unto the multitude, and said unto them: Behold your little ones."

"You are to be the ROYAL ARMY of the Lord in the last days."

"You are to be the ROYAL ARMY of the Lord in the last days."
"You are 'YOUTH OF THE NOBLE BIRTHRIGHT"
Asher had a big day on Sunday at church. He had his first day as a Sunbeam. It was also the first time that we have ever had a hard time getting him to go to Primary. Finally what got him to go was that his dad told him that they get to sing alot more songs in the big primary than in nursery. He is defenately his mother's son.

"These I will make my rulers..."

"These I will make my rulers..."
Eden also had a big day at church on Sunday, she is now in Senior nusery. Granted she spent most of the time in class with her mom. I think that the change in teachers was hard on her but who knows what runs through that little girl's head. She is defenately her father's daughter!

Trip to California

For Christmas this year our family went to California for ten days.
