Swimming at the bubble!

She loved going down the slide and stunting with Daddy and swimming in her floaty! She loves to swim ad blow bubbles in the water! Here are a few pics of the family night!

Valentines and Lady A!

For Valentines this year I definitely got spoiled! Tim and I went with our friends Rich and Tonya to the Lady Antebellum concert at the ESA! We were in the Allstar suite which was facing directly toward the stage! It was by far the best concert I have ever been to! They are such nice, humble, down to earth people who also perform very well live! Needless to say, we had a BLAST! I sure love my hubby for making me the happiest woman alive! He treats me do well and we have an amazing relationship! Love you Timmy!

Smiles and fun with cousins!

Here are a few pictures of Makelle with her cousins!
She loved playing on the rocking chair with Ben. He was laughing so hard. It was hilarious to watch them together!
Parker visits our house 2 times a week, and we love playing with him! I need to post the video that happened after this picture. They we dancing it up! Love my baby doll!!!

Growing up way too fast!!!

Here are a few pictures of Makelle! She is getting way too big way too fast!!! I am loving every minute being a mom and getting to enjoy the joys that motherhood brings! Makelle is crawling now and getting into everything! She is now determined to walk and we are thinking that I will come sooner than planned!

Holiday Festivities

Some holiday festivities!

Can't Sleep!

I don't know what my deal is tonight it is 2 a.m. and I can't sleep!
We had some awesome friends of ours come over tonight Matt and Mallory Johns! They are the best! We had such a good time with dinner from Mo Betta's Steak House with some "Scookie" dessert! Delish! We are so blessed to have such great friends!

I just want to talk about Makelle... I am so lucky to be her mommy! She has my heart and I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this little girl! I don't remember if I have talked about this already on my blog but I thought I would share it again anyways. I thought that I had experienced the greatest Love in the world when I married Tim... that love GREW a million times for Tim when Makelle was born... not to mention that we had created the most beatiful little girl who stole our hearts from the second she was conceived and born! She is the most precious little angel and we Love her so much! It's such a different kind of love that is so undescribable... that I was not able to understand until Makelle was born. I can't believe she is already 5 months old! AHHH! Where has the time gone?!? She is growing up so fast and I just want time to freeze so I can take it all in!

I am so so proud of my husband for working so hard to provide for our amazing little family! He is such a hard worker and Makelle and I are truely blessed to have a man so strong, amazing, loving, caring, believing, worthy of his Priesthood callings, spiritual, hard working (so I am able to stay home), who does so many great things in our lives.

I LOVE BEING A MOTHER!!! It is the greatest calling here on earth and I am so blessed to be trusted by our Lord to take care of one of His little ones and hopefully more someday! I can't wait for Conference this weekend and love this Gospel and love my Family!

Sundance - Sound of Music

The whole Merrill Family took a drive down to Provo for some delicious dinner for Dad's birthday at Brick Oven! We then went up Provo Canyon to Sundance where Sound of Music the play was playing! It was such a gorgeous day and a perfect night for the whole thing! It did get a little chilly but we packed a ton of blankets up! Tim asked me why I was bringing so many blankets and he was super glad that we took so many once the sun went down! Makelle did so good up there and had a fabulous time outdoors! She loves it! She fell asleep up there and slept the whole way home too! Here are a few pics of our fun adventure!!!

San Diego with the Goalens!

We had the amazing opportunity to go over to San Diego with the entire Goalen Family! We had such a fun time with everyone! This amazing house that we rented out had a huge yard - patio - pool - lemon trees and much more! The house was amazingly huge and it was just so fun! We had our first annual Goalen Olympics, lots of swimming adventures, a day at the beach, some went to the zoo, and Tim and I had the wonderful opportunity to go and do a session at the San Diego temple! It is so gorgeous inside and out! We had tons of fun and hope to be able to visit again soon!

Makelle's first time in the pool!
