Long time no Blog!!

So as Ben blogged, we decided to go the Washington for a week or two to spend time with my mom and brothers. We had a great time. The boys did great traveling all the way there. I get alittle bit nervous about stopping just anywhere, and so we only stopped in major towns that had a target or Wal-mart. We took our time getting there, and were very glad that we went. We went to JD's football game and realized that I had not packed very well, I had not taken a coat for Boston or myself, and it was POURING!!! But luckily it was not very cold. We ended up buying coats the next day because it raining the whole time we were there. We met up with Jordan and JD for lunch the next day and then headed to Jess and Kelly's. Jess is such a great uncle. He wrestled and jumped on the beds with Boston and Jae, ( which is not allowed at my house) The little boys had so much fun. Then we got the news that Duncan had passed away and decided that we would cut of trip short to be with the family. We went back to Jed and Sunny's to spend a few more days before heading home. We had a great time. Boston rode the 4 wheeler, and was so brave, he started "jumping" the curb. Jed and the kids all spent alot of time in the "Man Cave". My boys are so lucky to have such great uncles. We just had such a great time while we were there. Ill post pictures soon

We got home in time for the funeral, and were glad that we could be with family at such an important time. Family really is the most important thing at a time like that. We love the Oaks family and feel so lucky to be apart of such a great family. As sad as it is to loose someone we love, what a great time to be grateful for the Plan of Salvation. To know that we will all be together again, and not just while on this earth. It also makes me what to really share the Gospel with those in my family that no longer active. I love my family, and want us all to be together for Eternity.

We have been spending the rest of our time getting things back into order. Laundry done and talking myself back into running again. If anyone wants to come and run and work out t the gym with me, let me know. I need the encouragement. Well we are glad that we are home, and will keep blogging .
