I'm a Esme! I found out through TwilightersAnonymous.com. Which Twilight Female Are You? Take the quiz and find out!

You are thoughtful and care very deeply for your family. A loving home is of great
importance to you and you always try to make people feel welcome. Although you have a great capacity to love, you also have a great capacity to hurt, so at times you can be
sensitive. You're firm when you need to be, but people trust your judgment and
appreciate the kind way you always handle things.

Loving. . .

There are many things that i am loving currently in my life. Being married, being a part of a giving and receiving relationship, being a daughter, not only of my earthy parents that love my unconditionally, but also of my Heavenly Father and Mother, who I can feel their love for me constantly. I am loving being a sister and working a building relationships with my siblings. I am loving the blessing of the gospel and the calling I hold in the Church and what a great blessing it is to learn from those around me.

But I think I am loving, well I don't want to say most because being a wife is great also but okay most, is being a mother. there is no other gift in this immortal exsistence that can even compare. Watching him learn something as simple as the motions to the Circle Time Song is so incredibly rewarding. The other day he hugged me on our way to the car from Wally World, and i thought this could not get better. I have a hard time understanding why people would freely choose to not accept this gift in this life. To refuse it like it is a chore. Hmm a chore to have an opportunity to have such a great influence, to teach, to love, to nurture, and in turn miss out on that hug that cannot be any more genuine. I am so glad that I have the knowledge to fully understand the value that we have as mothers and the value that it will have in this life and for the eternities. I love Parks and the rest of my eternal children, even though I don't know them, I love them!

What we have been up to . . .





Vernan's Baby Blessing





We went to Fallon to spend some great time with Jeramy's family. It was so fun, we haven't been all together for a long time. We met Jeramy's brother Ian's little boy who was born in November. Cutler is so adorable! Jeramy's sister Millie blessed her baby. We had family pictures and a baby blessing all together.


Brookynn loved Parks.









Grandpa with all of his Grandkids.



Four generations of Whitakers.





Pumpkin Patch



We took a trip with some friends to a pumpkin patch in Fallon, Lattin Farms, yesterday.We made the one hour drive and it was worth it! We got a private hay ride, picked our pumpkins from the vine and got yummy cinnamon rolls. The kids loved all the cute pumpkins and the nice dry dirt they tried eating and putting in their hair! Parks thought that every thing was a 'ball'! It was a great way to celebate fall!








Parks wanted this one and was convinced he could lift it!



Oh and we went to Scheel's when my grandma was here.


Well the access to the store is terrible but it was a pretty cool store!



Parks even got a tatoo!
