I love Sundays!!!

What another wonderful Sunday!! Sundays are my favorite day of the week. It is the only day that Jason is off. Yesterday we had Stake Conference which was amazing. President Eyring spoke and Elder Hales. It was a broadcast. Before we moved out here Elder Hales came to our stake conference and spoke to us. He used the same story in both talks so I think we really needed to get what he has been telling us. They spoke a lot about being prepared and being happy with what we have. It was an excellent meeting.

After church we went site seeing with the Weeks family. Troy, Brock's dad, was out here for business so he took us around to see a bunch of stuff. We went to Plymouth to see the Mayflower and Plymouth rock (I am not going to lie- I thought Plymouth rock was a huge rock- so it was kinda funny to see the real thing not as big as I imagined) It was really neat to see all the history there. We went to Plymouth Plantation also, which was very neat.

We then drove out to see the Kennedy compound where JFK was born. The house was beautiful and the beach had some amazing sea shells. We had a wonderful trip with good company and many good laughs!! enjoy the picturesJFK's House

Shopping in the big city with the girls

On Saturday a bunch of us girls went into the big city of Boston. Driving here is ciaos so it is nice that the T station(the subway) is only about a mile from our house. We had about 7 strollers and a lot of flights of stairs to pack them up. It was way crazy but way fun!

(Shawna, Famous random guy, Katie, Macie, Me)
K- I don't know who this dude is- he was walking by and told us that he was in movies before so he is used to having his picture taken- I am not sure what movies but if I ever find out this picture is probably worth a lot LOL!!
This street performer was pretty cool he climbed a ladder that wasn't leaning against anything, when he got to the top he jumped onto his unicycle and started to juggle.

What a wonderful mother's day in Rhode Island

For Mother's day we went to church- our bishop let us out early (truly inspired) which was a great present!! We went home, relaxed for a little bit had a yummy lunch, and then we went to Rhode Island to see some mansions on the beach- this was one thing I for sure wanted to see while we are living out here so it was a perfect choice for mothers day. We went with a bunch of our friends: the Bells, the Weeks, and the Lines. We had so much fun. It is so great to be able to see so much!! When we got home Jase made me a super yummy dinner and we watched a chick flick- it was a wonderful day!!
I just love this goofy guy- he cracks me up!!!








We climbed out to this rock in the ocean- it was a little difficult in flip flops but a good adventure!! We had to climb along the side of a rock on a tiny ledge- but we made it and the ocean was wonderful!!!

Jason makes every picture look good- love you hun :)





Katie and I decided that this roof looks like Indian Corn very unique!



We drove over this bridge a few times- it was supposed to be over it and back but ended up being over it a few extra times and paying the toll a couple more times than needed- roads out here are crazy and confusing but it made for some good laughs!!

Our friends the Lines




We love our MOMS!!!!!

Happy Mothers day to my wonderful mom and mother in law!! We are so grateful to have such amazing women in our lives. Mom your my best friend and I love you so much! I'm so grateful for Lisa as well- you have made me feel so welcomed and loved!! WE love you both so much and sorry we weren't with you on your day but we were thinking of you and love you tons!!!
