We went to Thatcher on our way home from Carlsbad and we had to stop by and see Uncle Levi's horses!
This isn't the best picture of us but we sure had fun on our first family trip together. This picture is of us in white sands New Mexico. It is really very pretty. Jake wasn't to happy with us because you will notice in the next picture he ate it in the sand. We ended up not staying as long as we would have liked but he really wasn't to fond of the sand after that! : ) I of course had to get a picture before we could wipe it off!


I sure love my little FAMILY!! Life is hard but it's worth plugging through when you are surrounded by the people you love and who love you!!!!

Here are some pictures of our cute boy! Jake is so much fun and has such a great personality!


He loves making funny faces at us! Everyday he has a new one. I have no idea where he gets them from. I hope that's not what I look like everyday and he just is copying me!!!

Happy Birthday Aubrey!!

Today My Sweet Aubrey would have been turning 2 years old! I have mixed emotions as March 7 comes around every year. As I watch Jake grow up and learn new skills and become more and more fun and exciting a piece of me aches for Aubrey to be here. I wish I could see her growing and developing too. Lucky for me I know I will get to see her do the very things Jake is doing! I am very grateful for my eternal family and for the plan our Heavenly Father has for us! I have so many more thoughts and emotions running through my head right now but I will leave those for her journal. I just needed the world to know that she was born to our family and she is just as much apart of us as Jake. Happy Birthday Aubrey!! We love you!

Long overdue post...

So it has been quite a while since we last posted... sorry about that.

Well Kami is taking 3 classes at ASU, babysitting a boy named Max three days a week, taking care of Jake, doing her new calling (Beehive Advisor), and taking care of me! She is a babe! The amazing part is that she does it all with a smile.

Jake is getting so big and so fun! We love the little guy like I never thought possible. He is very healthy and strong too. He is sitting up on his own now which makes things easier and funner! I am also going to school full-time.

I am going to be working as a Supervisor at a Chick-Fil-A on the 20th of this month. I've also been trying to do some videography on the side (just basketball highlight films right now).

Life is good! Hope you all are well!

Dave took these pictures... back in December! We are barely getting them on here, but I had to put them on... he does such a good job!

Here is a link to my highlight film that I created for one of my favorite people in the world.

I'm just going to make a slideshow so.... see you later!

Jake Thatcher

Photos taken by Sarah Pace for us... except a few at the bottom....

This wasn't one of Sarah's... it's just a cute one!

Here's a little note to Sarah for doing the pictures!!!

Look at my two cute boys! They were both very tired after a night of candy and trick-or-treaters!

This is Jake and his cousin Nash. They are 5 weeks apart and going to be the best of friends!

Me and my little Giraffe! He is sooo Cute!

Jake was so tired and really not into Halloween at all but we sure enjoyed dressing him up! Next year will be better!

Jake was blessed October 11 and I am just now getting to the pictures! It was an awesome day for us. We have been anxiously waiting for this day for awhile. We had a lot of family come and support us and Steven gave a beautiful blessing! He looked very handsome in hi outfit!

This is so neat to see all the men that will be and are great examples to Jake! I am so proud that they all hold the priesthood, especially my sweet husband! He is such an amazing father and I am so glad that he chose me! I am so blessed!

Fun @ the Palmers

This is one of the best videos we have of Jake! Kami will stick out her tongue at him and he will copy her. It is really cute.

We love this kid!

Here are a few more pictures of Jake!

Leslie was asked to watch Jake for 10 minutes. He started to make noises so she freaked out and tried to pick him up. She was afraid to break him! So after about 2 minutes of trying, she managed to flop him onto her chest in this position. She was so worried that she just sat like this until help got there! She is so funny! And she'll eventually make a GREAT mom!

He fell asleep like this!

The priests in our ward came over for mutual and they love Jake!

This video is of our dog, Max. He is such a wuss! Every time we start the lawn mower or weed-eater, he runs for his life! Even when he first sees them, he hides. It makes us laugh every time so we thought we'd share!

Jake is so cute when he sleeps. He makes these noises when he breathes. He does it sometimes when he is just tire too! We love this little guy!!!
