We are Alive :)

 So as you can see we are alive and well, eating cookies and learning how to dunk like a true Robinson. :)


(Good friend Kayce reminded me how to crochet and now I am crocheting Graydin/Alice sized blankets for the families we go and serve in the hospitals .)


Our lives have been busy, but good. We are truly blessed. Let us start from the oldest: Tay is working and working and working some more. He is an amazing provider and just keeps going even when times are tough. What a blessing he is to me and to our family. He is working hard and we are praying for one job by the end of the summer. Keep your fingers crossed friends. He starts his second masters this May in Education, what a guy.

 (We have these amazing neighbors who we LOVE, we made a new tradition that we will be eating smores with chocolate chip cookies instead of graham crackers.)

Second oldest would be me, and I am good. I love being a mama and I love putting my time and energy into Share. Those of you who don't know I help run a non-profit organization here in Southern Utah that goes and helps families at the time of a loss, we also do support group meetings, service meetings, many other things but our latest accomplishment is our 1st annual walk! 

 Our walk was on May 10th and it was fabulous. Above you see Brenda, myself and Kayce, we were getting ready for those who walked to come back so we could hand out balloons. The event was beautiful and wonderful and my heart is full that we were able to accomplish such an amazing thing. So many people need to be thanked and hugged and thanked again. Love you all who participated.

 The third oldest would be Riley Man as of tomorrow he is a senior in high school! Wow do I feel old. He is working a lot and hard and I am proud to say that boy almost has ALL A's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What an accomplishment. I am continually grateful he is here in our family. He might drive me bonkers but I can't imagine him anywhere else. Love you Ry!

 We will skip the youngest to give a little shout out to the newest member of our family Jessica! We are glad to have her. Tyler and Jessica got married in the Manti Temple on March 8th and I couldn't be more happy for them. What a wonderful choice they made to start their eternal family in the temple. I am so proud of my baby brother. He a great man.
 The youngest that you see below is a cute little poop. She is sassy and emotional and funny and energetic and pretty much looks like her dad and I hear she acts like me. :)
She is talking and sassing and dancing and singing and counting and helping and trying to climb and all kinds of thing I never thought she would be able to do. She is my miracle and my sunshine and my joy. I love her she is an amazing little girl.
 We have been doing yard work, gardening, hanging out with our neighbors, preparing for pre-school! cleaning and reading.
 We have even had our share of Pink Eye! Allergies Colds, scrapes and bruises, hurt hearts and sad days, but we keep on keeping on.
And in the end of the day no matter what happens I know that we are blessed. Blessed to have the gospel of Jesus Christ in our lives, blessed to have amazing friends and family, blessed to live in a beautiful place with beautiful people, blessed to have so much. Thank you for being a blessing in our lives. Until next time SMILE and know you are loved.
