Clips of Liv

Here are some videos of Liv. She is sure growing up lately and I am loving every minute with her. The video of her in the tub is only like one second long because my battery died, but you can still see how much she loves her baths. The other one is her talking. She has definitely found her voice, and she just jabbers like this all day. She is such a cutie, and you can see that she is a healthy little girl, she is getting so chubby, I LOVE IT!

Kindergarten and a New Calling

Ryker started kindergarten! He absolutely loves his teacher, and he wakes up every morning so excited to go to school....I hope that his enthusiasm lasts a while:) I can't believe he has started kindergarten, but the fact that he loves it makes it a little easier on mom for sure:)


We have also had a very unexpected turn of events in our lives. Our ward was split a few weeks ago, and Shawn was called to be the Bishop of our newly created ward. Neither of us had any idea that this was in our future. In fact I remember a few months ago saying how excited I was that Shawn finished his schooling so that our lives wouldn't be as busy.........boy was I wrong!:) I must say though that we have both had some really neat experiences since he received this call, and we feel really blessed and supported by the ward members.

Elder Williams is Home!!!!

My youngest brother Bracken came home from his mission in Ecuador this past weekend. It was so good to see him again. He was such a great missionary and he is such a great example to all of us.

Walking off the plane at the airport

reunited with mom and dad.

Such a handsome kid!


I think he grew a couple of inches:)


we all just sat around him and listened to his amazing mission stories.

Bridger was born the day he went into the MTC, he met Bridger at the hospital for a few minutes before he left for his mission. Bridger loves his uncle Bracken!

Cardston!!!!!

We were able to take a trip to Canada this summer, we had such a fun trip! The weather was perfect, and it was so fun to see everyone up there again.


We went to a lake and the boys loved playing in the sand



Jana and Randy let us come boating with them....so much FUN!!!





Liv enjoyed the shade under a big umbrella, she did so good!


We also went canoeing at emerald bay in Waterton, this picture doesn't do the beauty justice. Such a pretty area.



The boys loved the canoes

Bridger steering the boat:)


We were finally able to meet our nephew Mason, he is almost 1 and such a cutie. He is sporting a sunscreen mo-hawk in this picture:)

We also went to the Cardston pool, Ryker was so brave, and loved jumping off the diving board

Liv with her cousins Cassidy and Jaxon

Ryker loved playing with his cousin Makenna


I love this picture of Liv with her papa. She was smiling at him and being cute, so he couldn't resist picking her up and holding her.

Ryker learned how to ride a bike with no training wheels while we were in Cardston as well. His cousin Jaxon spent so much time teaching him how to do it. Jaxon is such a great cousin, and such a good teacher.

Bridger is 2!!

We celebrated Bridger's 2nd Birthday while we were in Cardston. He was spoiled with presents and cake and ice-cream, And he has sure been living up to his age lately as well:). He is such a fun little guy with the cutest most irresistible smile, and such a fun lively personality. We love you Bridger and the joy you have brought into our lives!

8 Years of pure bliss!!!

Cheers! to the best 8 years of my life, and the best decision I ever made!

Fathers and Sons Campout

The boys went on a ward camp out with their dad and had a blast. Here are some pictures of the fun that they had.

They love sleeping in a tent, can't you just feel the excitement!


I wasn't planning on letting Bridger go on the camp out because Shawn needed to help with the cooking and I was afraid he would wander off. When we were packing everything up, Bridger put on his shoes, and a baseball cap and was ready to go camping. We couldn't resist that, so I decided to let him go. I was glad I did because they both had the time of their lives with their dad, and made some wonderful memories.
