Horseshoe Bend...

Danilynn had so much fun visiting her aunts and grandparents. She and Jenna spent a lot of time wondering around the yard. Dani loved to be outside. It was a bit cold but she still enjoyed walking around out there.
Joie spent a lot of time on the floor will Dani. Dani started to scoot around while we were up in Idaho.

Oh, Jenna! She has been through a lot in the past year and a half. She is currently going to Boise State and is doing really good in school.

Happy Girl!!! Dani loved to play with everyone. She is Such a Joyful Baby!! My mom kept saying that she acts like a little person already. She has her mind made up about what she wants and she goes for it.

Here is my Beautiful Mommy. Isn't she Gorgeous? I love her. She is such an amazing mom. Thank You Mom for all that you did, are doing and will do in the future for my family.

We Love You!!!

Danilynn's First Plane Ride!!!

Dani and I were lucky enough to go and spend a week in Horseshoe Bend, Idaho with my parents. We flew from Phoenix to Las Vegas where we stayed on the plane and the headed to Boise. Grandpa and Grandma Walker were there to meet us. We were so EXCITED to get off the plane. Dani did a really good job flying. I had her out of her car seat most of the time, except for when she was sleeping. She was the entertainer of the whole plane. The all loved her.

Cousin Cameron Barber...

This is Danilynn's cousin Cameron Jason Barber. He is so much fun!!!

We went to say goodbye to Cameron and his parents Cami and Jason before we left Utah. We had to play in the grass while we had the chance.

The "Farewell"/Blessing...

Jordan was nice enough to share his special day with us. He did a marvelous job on his talk about miracles. Jeremy gave Danilynn a very beautiful blessing full of wonderful promises.

It was Our Anniversary. It was so great to be in the garden where we had our Reception. We had a lot of great memories to talk about while we were there.

I love this picture!!

Snoozing with Grandpa Walker after such a busy day!!!

Jenna, her hair is really growing good. Good job Jen!!!

Elder Jordan Hale Walker off to the Chili Santiago West Mission.

JoAnna Kaye, Senior in High School. So Beautiful!!!

Bathing with Nate...

The first thing that I have to say is...how in the world is my child more tan than Erika's? We may live in Arizona, but this summer it was way too hot to go outside so Dani's natural skin tone is darker than Nates. She really didn't get it from me.

They had so much fun in the bath together.
OH, so very cute!!!
Hi, Grandma Walker!!!!

Staying at Jon and Britt's...

Whitney is so adorable. She crawled into Dani's carseat and just hung out there for a little while.

We had so much fun with our family. We stayed in Jon and Brittany's brand new home. It is so beautiful. And we all fit. Jerrod and Erika's Family stayed there too.
Grandma Hale even came and spent some quality time with us and the grandkids. It is so good to see her. She looks so good. WE LOVE GRANDMA HALE!!!!

Nate was excited to see her too!!!

Justin's Soccor Game...

We were lucky enough to be able to see Justing play Soccor. We were excited to see Anna play too, but her game was canceled because of the Rain. Justin was so fun to watch. His neighbor Garrison is on the same team and they are so cute. Garrisons mom, Heather, and Erika are the coaches and they do a terrific job.
Justin wasn't so much a fan of playing in the game as he was practicing before the game. But it was still fun to see him play. We have our own little athlete on our hands.

Playing with Nater...

We drove all night to get to Utah. It was the best way we figured for Dani to do the best traveling. She slept most of the way. But once we got there she had so much fun playing with her cousins. Nate and her would laugh at each other while Nathan would slowing get closer and closer to her. She couldn't get away so she would just laugh. They had a lot of fun.

Nathan is such a cute kid. I hope that one day we can all be closer together so that Dani can enjoy all of her adorable cousins.

TWO TOO TUCKERED!!!

Danilynn loves her Daddy!!! I will catch them snuggling and falling asleep just about anywhere.

Danilynn's Blessing Dress

So Jeremy and I went shopping to find our little one her very own blessing dress. We found one at JC Penny for just $10.
It is so perfect and beautiful. She is an absolute GEM!!!

She even pulled up her dress so you could see her piggies!!!

I Love My Jerm!!!

I woke up this morning to find this in the fridge to greet me. Last night I went to be before Jerm got home from work so he had to pick up something to eat for dinner. Jerm is not a big soda drinker, but I am!!! With his combo dinner he ordered me a Diet Coke and put it in the fridge for me so I could enjoy it the next day. No Diet Coke has ever tasted so good!!! I love my hubby!!!

Still Going Strong On a New Carrot...

Fun Day...

I love this picture. I think that she looks so happy!!! The high chair continues and Dani mastered it pretty quickly.
So Many Toys, So Little Time!!!

Dani has been a bit fussy lately so Nana gave her something to naw on. Dani chewed on this carrot for almost an hour.

She Loved IT!!!

Trying on My Blessing Dress...

Originally, Jeremy and I decided that we wanted to have Dani blessed in my blessing dress. It would have worked had our lives not changed so much. We had planned on blessing her in July, but Jeremy got a new job working for Petsmart and he couldn't get the time off to travel to Utah to bless Dani when we planned. So... we had to wait until September. This was my blessing dress and in some of the pictures I think that she actually looks like me. It is two weeks before the blessing and I can't do up the top button on this dress.

She was trying to sit up, but look at those cute legs and pigs.

This is the one where I think that she looks like me. I wish I could download my picture when I was her age to compare. But she is beautiful.

Happy Birthday to ME!!!!

I so love my hunny!!!! He means the world to me! and isn't he the most hansome man ever??!!! I sure do think so. WE went to Cracker Barrel for my Birthday Dinner. I alway get the French Toast. It has the bestest syrup in the whole world. It is pure maple and so ultra yummy. Every one needs to try it atleast once.

Aren't we a happy couple? We think so!!!

This was Dani's first experience in a high chair. She was so cute in it. She didn't want to sit in her carseat. She was so fun to watch!!!

The Tender Moments of Being a Mom...

I had fed and rocked Dani and she had fallen asleep already in my arms. As I was bending over her crib to lay her down she opened up her pretty blue eyes and smiled at me. Then she closed them and went back to sleep. My heart broke and I was so touched by the tenderness that I felt. She is such an amazing little spirit. I am so blessed to be her mother. She has broght so much happiness and joy into my life.

I found this quote today...

It is not a slight thing when they,

who are so fresh from God,

Love Us.

I could not be more happy than I am with both my daughter and my sweet husband.
I will love you both 'til the day after forever.
