First day of School

 So here is the first day of school. Hannah is a senior and Haleigh is a junior at Rocky Hill High School. It seems weird that this is the last day for Hannah to do a first day of school picture. Next year her first day of school will be at college. Oh man how did that happen. On top of that we only have one more first day of school picture left with Haleigh. Double how did that happen. They are growing up way too fast.

 Here is Hannah's 1st day of preschool and below is Haleigh wishing it was her 1st day of school. She had a hard time waiting a whole year until she could go to school!

I know I have more first day of school pictures but I can't seem to find them. When I find them I will add them. Needless to say we have some cute girls and I really can't believe they are so grown up.

Beautiful Girls

                                    

   How did Bronson and I get so lucky to have such amazing beautiful girls. We are truly blessed.

                                     

Family Time

-->

We have a tradition of playing games as a family and lately we have added another tradition. When the girls have a school break we put together a Lego project. This is the one we put together over Thanksgiving break last year in 2013.

Here is the finished product!

16 Years...where has the time gone!

Someone had a birthday a couple of months back, okay like 6 months back,  and so we took a trip to Disney World. Here you can see Hannah is in heaven with her favorite character Eeyore.  Where has the time gone. It seems like only yesterday Hannah was born. Now she is growing up faster than we would like. We are enjoying the teenage years and she is so much fun to be around but I feel time fleeting by quickly. Two years from now we will be getting ready to deliver her to college and it won't be long after that papers will be sent in for a mission. Then all too soon she will be married. Even though time is moving quickly we are enjoying this amazing girl we have. Her laughter is contagious. She helps out at every turn. We are so proud of this amazing girl we have and can't wait to see what the future holds for her. Okay maybe it can wait a little bit. I wouldn't mind if time slowed down just a bit. I can say that we are savoring this time with our little girl. Happy Birthday Hannah.

Eternal Family

We are an eternal family and I wouldn't change it for the world. Knowing that we will be together forever makes all the difference. We were very fortunate to join in a Youth Temple trip with our ward. As of right now the closest temple is the Boston Temple. That will change as now the Hartford Temple is now under way. Yes, we just had the ground breaking ceremony on Aug. 17, 2013 but we are excited to see the progress of the temple and soon to be able to enjoy the temple in our area. Right now the driving time to the Boston Temple is around 1 hour and 50 minutes depending on traffic. We are only about 25 minutes from the Hartford Temple.

Just For Fun

Some day I will be much better about adding to our blog until then here is a picture from our trip to Disney World in February 2013.

A Little Bit of Christmas

Here is just one little hint of Christmas.  We had a great Christmas this year.  It was a little different because Bronson had to work on Christmas and I don't know if he has ever had to work on Christmas before anytime during our whole marriage.  The nice thing was we made the girls wait to open presents until he came home.  They made it just fine until about 1:30pm and then every half hour they asked when he was going to be home.  I guess the temptation of presents was a little hard.  It was nice to see them excited to open presents.  I guess all the other years they aren't quite awake and so the excitement level is almost nothing.
