New Baby Madeline

Merril's sister, Megan, had another baby and the family is so excited! Everybody wants to love the new baby cousin because we haven't had one for a little while. Her name is Madeline Eleanor Campbell. Mark thinks we need to have another baby but I told him, “Sorry bud, you're out of luck.” 

Madeline was blessed here in St. George so it made it easy to attend. She has sweet blonde/red hair. It's so fun to have a new baby around. 😍

Fun Adventures!

Juliet was invited to Vegas for Nicole's 16th birthday party! Her parents have a time share and they had a sleepover and played in Vegas over the weekend! Yay! Juliet still has about 6 months until she turns 16. Sorry kiddo!

Nicole's parents were there too!

Do you see!? Look who is with my girl? Jo Anna and JoLyn were going to be in Southern California and asked if they could drop in on Maxine! Yes! They made sure it was okay with President Platt and I'm so jealous! Jo Anna got a big hug! *I'm crying* 

I'm so glad someone was able to give her a hug for me. My hug is coming up! This is Maxine's companion Sister Wengler. She said they get along great! They help each other. 

Letters from Maxine

I used to love writing to pen pals. Technology has made it obsolete. Since Maxine's been on a mission, I've loved writing and receiving letters again!

She makes them so cute too!

I will miss this when she comes home but can't wait to be able to talk to her when I want.

Sandy the Bearded Dragon

Mikayla loves this animal! She's so happy with Sandy. I think Sandy is very interesting.

Juliet does not like Sandy. 😂😂😂 Whenever Sandy runs to sit next to her, she makes a face and tries to get away. It's great stuff. Lol.

Spotlight on Mikayla

Mikayla has been in LEGO League for 2 years. She stays after school two days a week and helps the team make a Lego robot.  It was time for the big competition and it was hosted by Hurricane High school! Our team didn't win, but they still had a good time. 

And then on the same weekend, Mikayla was asked to speak at stake conference. When I first got a text from the stake president, they said, “We'd like your daughter Mikayla to speak at stake conference.” I responded and said, “Do you mean Juliet, my 15 year old?” 😲 They said, “No we want Mikayla.” She did a great job and didn't seem nervous at all! 

Awesome sauce girly!

Cozy vibes!

I love cozy winter vibes. It's about time to take down the decorations but I still love them too much. And this quilt my Mom made is so lovely, I can't put it away just yet.

We had epiphany. Tons of babies stuffed into the king cake. Sorry. On Epiphany, everyone is a winner at our house. Those who want to seek Jesus, can find him. 💕

Welcome 2023!

Merril and I have a California King size bed and that means that it can fit more people in the morning. This is how we started off the new year! 

Aunt Megan was in town and the families went bowling. This is the only picture I took. 😂 Aunt Megan brought Madeline and everyone was obsessed. She's so little and adorable.
