The family

So I know I say this all the time but I truly believe I have the best family in the world.

Calum gave the most touching talk today in church that my heart seriously wouldn't stop burning.

I was blown away by how comfortable he was up on that podium.

He was a natural!

I just kept thinking about how close we are to him going on a mission.

(he will be amazing by the way)

I was a little worried yesterday when I came upstairs to make breakfast.

I find him and his friend making breakfast for themselves

(an attempt to make breakfast at least)

He put milk in the pot for hot chocolate and the milk ended up like exploding out of it and then he burnt his bagel in the oven (from baking it).

All I could think was, he will need lots of prayers on his mission.

I know its a little ways away, but its still coming up and I can hardly believe that my stinky baby brother is as old as he is.

And now Aiden is passing the sacrament!

Aiden is the sweetest sweetest sweetest kid you will ever meet.

He is so mellow and calm and is just the cutest kid ever.

The other day, I was sitting at the table eating dinner

and my dad calls to the boys to take the trash out and Aiden immediately comes to do it.

And after a minute of waiting for Calum to take out some of the garbage, he says,

"well I guess Calum isn't coming. I will just take both."

LIKE WHAT 12 YEAR OLD DOES THAT?!

He is just so stinkin' easy going and I could just squeeze the life out him because I love him so much.

And then of course there is my little Aislyn bug.

She is a hoot

Such a G 

Seriously she makes me laugh all the time.

I love how little she is, but it makes me so excited for her to be older because I just know we will be the best of friends.

but that can of course wait because I'm not ready for her to get big yet.

She is obsessed with sparkly everything, and pink and lipstick and boys.

Oh my heavens she is so boy crazy my parents are in trouble. 

She makes me laugh so hard all the time and I am so lucky to have her as my sissy.

And then of course there is my Dare-Boy!

He is my other baby brother.

He is just the most polite and grumpy and funny boy you will ever meet!

I love when he comes over in the morning in his PJ's and has hair that is just sticking up all over the place.

One of my favorite things about Dare is he has this lisp that turns all of his "S" sounds to "Th" sounds.

So Aislyn is "Thithy".

 I will cry the day he grows out of it.

He is such a love and I am so grateful that he is apart of my family. :)
