January

2021 started out normal enough......NOT. 

For now all I have to say about it is that when I watch our Prophet, President Nelson, and other church leaders speak I feel the Spirit & know where to put my trust. In Christ.  

In stark contrast when I hear any news in this world and other "leaders" express their views, even they radiate uncertainty, fear, & despair.  A goal is born for 2021.  Turn OFF the news.  Listen to those who know & speak truth.  

First piece of the most WONDERFUL NEWS EVER this year was this baby Tanner Graham Dahlin being born into our family.  

A new cousin!  Eli and Alayna had my baby boy nephew on 

January 9th & I cannot stop looking at his face! 

Now I just need to SQUEEZE him.  

They're in Idaho😔

Brothers with their babies 😍

 

Sophia's second baby shower was warm, low key & TMI at some points in the night:) Birth stories/most embarrassing stories surrounding having kids were shared for a prize and there were some shockers in there... yikes.  We had warm soup and homemade bread 😋AND massages & we did some henna on the mama-to-be belly:) 

We played up til the end with Tia Sophia! Gnome making partay!!!
