I cannot even wait...just me and my mom are off on a plane. Just the two of us!!

See you guys soon =)

P.S. This was my 100th post!! WHOO HOO!!!

WE DID IT...

Jay and myself and our three precious children were sealed to us in the Salt Lake Temple on December 16, 2009. I can't even tell you how awesome it really was! It was incredible. It has been a long road to get to where we are today, and I am so thankful we made it to the temple! It was the best experience. When we saw our little babies come into that room all dressed in white it was amazing!! I love them so much and what a blessing it is that we can be together FOREVER!!

Jay and I took our endowments out that same day before the sealing...amazing! So, it was a pretty long and overwhelming day for us. Jay's mom watched our kids for us and then she brought them to the temple just before the sealing. She was a life saver. When we woke up that day, Saydey girl said she had a belly ache. Of course! She ended up throwing up twice before Jay and I left, which was heart breaking! Right before they brought her in to be sealed to us she threw up all over her white dress. The temple ladies were so sweet and cleaned her all up for us! I felt so bad that I couldn't be there for her! So, in these pictures, she is so sick, and didn't want to cooperate. Hence the no smile. There isn't any of just her either because she just wanted to be held. I don't blame her though!

Thank you all who were able to make it!! What a great experiece and we are glad we got to share it with some great friends and family!! We really really appreciate it! So here are lots of pictures...

I love you so much baby...thank you for being you and taking me through the temple to be sealed to you as your eternal companion. There is nowhere else I would rather be than right here with you and our precious children. You mean the world to me and I don't know what I would ever do without you!! I LOVE YOU!!!

NeW YeArS DaY!

We were so lame this year on New year's eve! I guess that's what ya get when you have 3 little kids and don't party hardy!! It was pretty chill...actually we ended up going to bed at 10! I know...LAME! I did wake up about 10 minutes before midnight and stayed up to tell my sister who slept over, Happy New Year! She was the only one that stayed up. Then I watched some fireworks out my window and went and got into my bed with my sleeping hubby!!

Jay and I woke up bright and early the next morning and headed up to Strawberry with some neighbors and went snowmobiling!! Oh how I love this so much!! It was awesome...snow was great, clear sky's, just awesome!! Then my neighbor brought up Jaydyn and Saydey and their kids so we could play with them on the snowmobiles. They had a blast! It was so much fun! I am glad they got to come up and enjoy the outdoors!!

Happy New Years!! We hope it's the best year ever, and can't wait to see what 2010 has in store for us!!

ChRiStMaS 2009

Oh how I just love this time of year! I love to get together with family and friends. There is just something about Christmas that makes home that much more home-ier! I love the smells, the lights, the decor, the candles, the food and yummy desserts, the love everybody has for eachother, the snow...then I am done with the snow when Christmas is over, like right now...unless I am snowmobiling. That's different! Anyway, I am getting side tracked...I love how excited my kids are and how I can threaten them that Santa is watching them and they better knock it off!! I used that one way too much. Now Saydey is telling me that Santa is watching me!! Too funny! Santa did make it to the Murphy house, thank goodness! My girls really wanted those bikes!!

First off...Christmas Eve, we didn't do too much! Karston was still sick, so we just stayed in and made cookies for Santa, opened our Christmas Jammies. My mama and brother and sister came over and hung out, mainly helped Jay man wrap his presents that he got for me that day!! Every year he goes shopping on Christmas Eve during the day!! He seems to do great too...I am not complaining. The kids fell asleep pretty early so we got a lot done!!

Christmas morning the kids didn't wake up until about 8, which was nice! They came out to the half eaten cookies they left for Santa. Jaydyn really wanted to leave regular milk and chocolate milk out for Santa to see which one he would like better. He liked the Chocolate milk! Good job Jaydyn!! Santa also left them a letter saying how much he loved the cookies and especially the chocolate milk!

My dad and Faith got to our house right when we woke up...they peaked through the windows and everything was still so neat we just hadn't came out yet. Good timing on their part. They watched us have Christmas morning which was awesome!!

This is what our house looked like Christmas Eve...so nice and neat!

Santa did indeed come! The girls were so excited to see their new bikes! First thing Jaydyn said was that hers had training wheels and she wanted them off! So that's our adventure this summer. Karston was still so sick. He only lasted about a half hour in the morning then he wanted to go back to bed. He wasn't in the mood to open his gifts or anything. He opened maybe two! It was so sad!

The kiddos got a little spoiled this year!

Jay did very good this year as always! I got new sheets and down comforter for our bed, clothes, shoes, a coat, prada sunglasses, and a bunch of other stuff including this...

I love this baby!! I have needed a nice camera for so long, and now I have one! I have another lense coming soon! Now I want to take some photography classes. Anybody want to join??

My dad gave us a GPS for our car...we LOVE it!! Thanks Dad and Faith!!

And for Mr. Jay man...well I got him a gun. An over and under shotgun!! He has wanted one for while now, and boy did I suprise him! It's a beauty. Now he just needs to go shoot the dang thing!! The girls gave him an awesome popcorn machine to put down in his theater room!

Now...here is the aftermath of Christmas morning!!!! WOW!!

Later that day, Jay's mom and sister Vel came down to do their gifts. It's always fun seeing them and Vel's three cute little girls. My Mom, Bert, Bobbi and Ryan also came down that afternoon. It was fun having us all there to hang out! It was nice that our family came to us, since we couldn't go anywhere because Karston was just too sick. Needless to say...this was the third Christmas in a row that we haven't left the house! Next year...WE ARE LEAVING! I like to go and get all ready and leave for awhile. But it has been nice not being everywhere at once on Christmas day!!

We hope everyone had a very MERRY CHRISTMAS! I know we sure did. Now on to the NEW YEAR!!!
