---Grass---


Brandon was out weeding the flower bed (more like digging up grass) and we went out for a minute.
Brays loved the grass and kept laying her head down in it! :)
I can't wait for summer till the grass is green and it is warm enough we can stay out and play!

HOLD ON!!



We have noticed that Braylie has started "HOLDING ON" for the ride when we are in the car! :)

She is so funny!!

Sharing my Day with someone special!

We attended my sweet, loving Grandma's funeral on my 28th birthday!!

I am honored to have been able to share my day with an amazing lady who I will FOREVER look up to!

-little Brays at the viewing.. she is so hyper ALL THE TIME!
and my cousin's cute little girls..

At the mortuary, they had a life size statue of an old lady passing through the veil and coming out as a beautiful young woman greeting Christ!
I LOVED IT!
It completely put my mind at peace knowing that Grandma is happy!
The funeral was excellent.
I learned some things about Grandma that I didn't know.
It is hard to lose someone, but I can't imagine not having the knowledge of the gospel and knowing that we will be reunited one day!
All the grandkids sang "A child's prayer". It was so hard to sing and we were so in and out and squeaky (from crying). On top of that.. none of us are singers. I am sure that we sounded excellent, but I know that Grandma thought it was beautiful and that is all that matters!

We traveled home and stopped in HOREM (as Brandon calls it---a.k.a OREM) with the family and ate dinner at the Brick Oven. Earlier we did a little birthday shopping and got some fun new things for my house... Thanks family!!
Just so everyone knows...
I am SO aware that I am in desperate need of losing 40 pounds!!
Brandon got me the dang cutest shoes!


He assured me there was more coming...the next day when we got home from the burial services in Idaho..there was a huge package on my door from Target. It was this cute chair:

I love it!
He did such a good job!
I am impressed!
LOVE YOU HONEY!!

The next day.. we traveled to Blackfoot for Grandma's burial services.


love you grandma forever and always!!

I am not sure how much the little peanut weighs, but she is still wearing 3-6 mo clothes and I get told a lot that she is little!

We have been so busy that I have been awful at taking pictures... that is so excuse!

LoVe YoU gRaNdMa!!




My amazing Grandma Bergeson passed away this week.
She has been fighting a very agressive breast cancer.
Despite this trial and pain she was in, she was able to keep her sense of humor and stay positive.
She is and always will be an excellent example to me.
She has left an excellent legacy for her family.
I can only hope to one day be as wonderful as her and have so much love to share!
She touched so many lives and was loved by so many!
She had such a strong testimony and loved the gospel so much.
I loved hearing her tell stories.
We were able to go spend some time with her and say our goodbyes.
She sang hymns and other songs with us and she had a little message for us all.
What a sweet and wonderful lady she was!
It hurt to see her in so much pain and so grateful that she no longer has to fight and feel that awful pain.
I have so many memories of Grandma.
It makes me smile to think about them.
It makes me so sad that little Braylie will never get to know Grandma on this earth and be able to sit down and listen to her stories.
I do know that she will get to one day!
Grandma will definitely be missed by everyone that knew her, but it is extremely comforting knowing where she is and that we will get to be with her again one day!
I know that she is SO super happy being reunited with her parents and sisters and other loved ones!
WE LOVE YOU GRANDMA!!
