I LOVE my boys

It's been a couple of weeks. Last week I had to go to Independence, MO for the entire week (childless) for some online classes that I am taking toward my Masters degree. It was surprisingly fun to get out and meet my classmates (from all over the U.S.) I also got to learn suturing, casting, other procedures, and learn in-depth assessment techniques (prostate exam is definitely a highlight) j/k. Anyway, It was good to go and learn, but it was GREAT to come back to my WONDERFUL little family of boys.
Here is the back of Graceland University, the school I am attending.

Here are my online/phone friends from Graceland. They are from Guam, Las Vegas, and North Carolina.

My first cast(-:

My wonderful mom watched my 2 boys while I was gone. It was SOOOO nice to not worry about them being loved and cared for. Here she is with her 4 grandchildren! The posterity is growing fast!

Here are my 3 handsome boys. The boys on this chair are the pride and joy of my life.

Tyler LOVES Easton SOOOOO much. He is a little overbearing sometimes but his face lights up when he sees his "little brother". Here is Tyler being a Monkey (this is Easton's Halloween Costume 8 months from now, but Tyler is wearing it in for him/stretching it out).

Tyler's favorite way to get woken up is if I bring Easton in and say that he wanted to see him. Tyler immediately embraces Easton and kisses him all over.

Story time is a little squishier these days...(yes, Tyler STILL loves a bottle prior to sleeping... he's 2 1/2 we brush his teeth though, I swear!)

Easton and Daddy, Quality time.

Love the updated post. I loved the picture of Tyler waking up and the smirk on Eastons face. I'm glad you are learning all the skills of a nurse practitioner. You are a wonder woman. Oh and thank you for taking care of Megzl while we were gone. She loves your family.

Elder Coats!!!!
jeje sorry can't help it!!

So great to hear from you, it actually helped cheer me up after such a sad day.

We moved out here to Utah last year around August, mom and Juan moved here a month before we did.
Mom and Juan live in West Valley, Utah, we live in beside the Holladay area here in Salt Lake City.

My mom and brother are well thank the Lord, they're happy to be here in Utah. Juan loves the area
and is loving his HS.

Thanks so much for your message and commenting on my little one. We had our baby girl on January 19, 2010.
Her name is Sarah Marie. She was born in Maryland... jeje.. she's been traveling a lot! Now she's 13 months,
walking, doing a lot of baby talk and loving life. We're so blessed to have her.

We love living here in Utah, we moved out here for her so that she may grow up with much better surroundings than
Jake and I did. More righteous influence. I love that there's so many members here, our ward is three blocks away :)..

Congratulations to you and your lovely wife on having a new sweet addition to your family.
Such cute boys! Wow, it's amaizing how time flies! The pictures are lovely! So glad to see you happy and doing well.
We're proud of you!

Thanks again for writing, let us know when you will be coming and might have time to visit. No pressure, I know how
busy life can be :)
Just write to this email or call us.

God bless you and your family,
Take care

In one of those pictures I thought Easton looked like your brother Dallon. Very cute. Can't wait to hold the guy. I want to try your smoothies.. going to the store tomorrow.
