Schools out!!!

Brance and Morgan are done with School for the summer! They had a program last night. They did a great job singing!

This was there teacher Mrs. Munns! We loved her. This is her last year, I'm so sad. I was hoping she would teach all my kids!

Brance is my tender heart! He was sad to see the school year end. He loves to see his friends and do the monkey bars at school. He will be in kindergarten next year... Crazy!!! He has grown up so fast.

Now, Morgan loves school, but could care less that it is over! She only went one day this year and did a great job. She knew all the songs at the program and has learned a lot!

These two are so cute together. They get along most of the time. (of course they have there moments.) It was fun for them to go to the same preschool. They had different class times but they sang the same songs and learned the same stuff! I hope when they get older and are only a grade apart, they can be good friends!

Pre-School Field Trip!

Today Brance and Morgan's pre-school had a field trip at the Peak in Brigham city. They were so excited.

They loved running on the bouncy floor and tramp.

They have a huge play land just like in Mac Donald's. They had a blast!

This was a huge twister balloon. They had so much fun jumping on it with there friends.

The whole way home they kept asking me when they can go back. They had so much fun.

Madalyn Bell

We had a sad week at our house. My little sister Terra's Baby Madalyn passed away last Tuesday April 28 09. She was born Nov 12 08 she was a little over 5 months old. She was a sweet little thing. When ever you were around her you could very a spacial spirit.

She had seizures since birth and the doctors could never find a reason for them. She come home from the hospital at the first of January. Terra was told she would probably die with in a week and she made this far. That was such a blessing. Terra is such a good mom. Madalyn needed lots of extra attention since she was on oxygen and a feeding tube. My parents have also helped so much. They are all so special for the things they did for Maddie. Madalyn was so blessed to be living with Grandma and Grandpa.

She looked so beautiful. She looked like a baby doll. This was at the viewing Friday morning. Just sitting here looking at her makes me cry. When Terra called and asked if I wanted to go watch her dress Madalyn I was so nervous. I didn't know if I could handle it. I was so happy that I went. It was so neat to be there with her. Terra just held the whole time. I don't know if I could ever do that. It really was special to me. Madalyn's spirit was so close. I'll never forget it.

Terra is so strong. She has amazed me though all of this. Right here she is talking to Brance about Maddie. I was shaking so bad, and crying so hard. My kids were so sweet, they all wanted to keep looking at there baby cousin and they even held her hand. So, so sweet!

Brother Rudd the mortician told all the little kids about how her sprite went back to Heavenly Father. That was by far the hardest thing for me to watch. Terra holding her baby for the last time and all the kids right at her feet. She has always been like a second mom to all of them. I love Terra so much. I hate that she has to go through all of this. Here I go again... crying just thinking about her.

Of course I didn't charge my camera battery so I didn't get any more shots. After the family prayer there was a grave side service. It was wonderful and the weather was so nice.
I am so thankful that our Heavenly Father has made it possible that we can all be together again someday. Maddie is by far in a better place than any of us. My brother Kyle spoke at the service and gave a quote about how, babies that come to the earth and get a body and die are choice spirits that were not meant to live in this world of scary bad things. (it was something like that) I totally agree. I hate to see what my kids are going to have to go though and see. She was so sweet. Like I said she always had a spacial spirit about her.

We love you Maddie and will miss you everyday!
