Other things may change us, but we start and end with the family.
Nate and Britni
"A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, and always with the same person." - Mignon McLaughlin
Tucker Nathan Watkins
Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~Elizabeth Stone

A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.

Tucker's Life Lessons
Sparklers should not get close to our faces
Locking Mom outside is not a good idea
Hand Sanitizer Tastes Nasty
Eating a mouthful of pepper does not feel good, and may or may not make you vomit
Dr. Pepper should not be put in the pepper grinder
Marjorie Pay Hinckley
"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with grass stains on my shoes from mowing Sister Schenk's lawn. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbor's children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helpingto weed someone's garden.I want to be there with the children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived."
Our Shared Passion....
Thomas S. Monson
"Life's journey is not traveled on a freeway devoid of obstacles, pitfalls, and snares. Rather, it is a pathway marked by forks and turnings. Decisions as constantly before us. To make them wisely, courage is needed: the courage to say "NO", the courage to say"YES". Decisions do not determine destiny. The call for courage comes constantly to each of us. It has ever been so, and so it shall EVER be."
Halloween 2011
Hold on, man. We don't go anywhere with "scary," "spooky," "haunted," or "forbidden" in the title. ~From Scooby-Doo
Our Little bug
"Little hands and little feet, Little toothless grins so sweet, Little eyes that shine so bright,Little arms to hug you tight - Everythings little except your joy when you have a new baby boy."
