scott shares his birthday with luke's wife
and larkie's husband is from gilbert... next to chandler
very fun!
Nathan is absolutely adorable in that picture! Where did you get such an adorable suit! He looks so handsome! I love the pictures of you in the younger years too! I can't believe Scott breaking into the church every night. Don't you go to H*** for stuff like that? J/K!!!
Scott sounds like a man with one strong testimony! The story about the church, missions, his family, etc., is awesome. Doesn't really go with someone who would break into a church though!!! SCOTT! What were you thinking??
And look at that blonde hair Christine!!! I now know where Nathan gets his adorable smile from:)
What's your secret for getting a baby to sleep at 8 weeks??? That's great!
You have some of the cutest little boys!
Thanks for FINALLY doing this tag:)
So fun to learn more stuff about your family!
Christi, You left out that you are AWESOME!!! Thanks for sharing all of your info. I don't know if you remember we share a birthday. You were born on my 21st. I love that you put in your picture from when I knew you. I am sitting here crying after seeing it and pics of you growing up. YOU ARE A PHENOMENAL WOMAN! If you have trouble with TMJ and Carpal Tunnel check with massage. I know the school I went to they taught both of those. Carpal Tunnel can be real or it can be a pinced nerve there are simple tests like holding your hands in front of your body and locking them by gently closing your thumbs and middle fingers for one minute. If you can do that you might just need special massage therapy sessions for carpal tunnel. Love you honey! Kim
I was just reading the blogs of others. Churches are not supposed to be locked. They are only locked because there are people who would vandalize and worse if they weree open. As long as he didn't vandalize anything Scott should be fine. Kim
Wow - I never knew that about Scott! What a great guy! That pose with Nathan is adorbale. Total GQ. And hooray for Caden's teeth!
I loved seeing the picture of when you were young! It's fun to see your blog.
Hey I found you through the grapevine that is the blog world. What a cute family you have! Hope all is going well with you.

I am a very old friend of Scott's. We were best friends in Jr. High. I have been trying to track him down for a few years to say hello. I found this blog at random.
Please have him send me an email. My name is Brent Taylor and my email is: brentrtaylor@gmail.com

First, I LOVE reading your blog. This tag was cool! I loved learning so much about you and your family.
Love you :)
Caden is so adorable!!! I love his blue eyes!
Ok, I just read through all the recipes you submitted from the Twilight party and I was laughing out loud!! You are SO funny Christine! I love the "go take a shower now" part on the chicken recipe. SO very funny! Thanks for submitting those. Can't wait to try them out myself now:) And I'm with you and Prego brand, can't beat it!
