January Birthdays

I made this Book of Mormon cake for the January birthdays, for my dad and Dasan. Lucky Dase got two cakes! I chose to do the story of Helaman and the 2000 Stripling Warriors, because it is my dads favorite Book of Mormon story and because we believe that the Stripling warriors are Dasans ancestors, through the Hopi tribe.

I made the men out of Rice Crispy treats so that my dad could eat them since he cant have wheat. This was the first time I tried this and I think it turned out great!


My dad and Dasan loved the cake and I was so happy how it turned out. It was really fun to make, but took many many hours. I dont think I will be making one that complicated for a while.



Pizza Party

Happy Birthday to my handsome Dasy-Dase! You are such a wonderful son. Im so happy you came to our family 10 years ago, and were my first baby. I feel so very blessed to have you as my son. Please always remember that I love you so much!



Dasan loves pizza and wanted pizza for his birthday dinner. So I decided to also give him a pizza cake. It was the funnest cake I have ever made. I love how it turned out!




Mali was trying so hard to blow out the candle, but he just couldn't do it. Poor baby! Everyone pitched in and helped him.

Handsome Cub Scouts!



On January 7th, on Dasans birthday, Dasan got to get his Bear award and Damian got his Bobcat award. I got to paint their faces and received a little pin from both of them. Im so happy that my boys love going to scouts and they work really hard to receive their awards. They are really good boys, and I feel so blessed to have them in my life.

Damian's daddy, Curtis, got to baptize Damian and confirm him a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.



Thanks to our awesome family that came to support Damian on his special day!

Christmas Bentley Party

We had such a fun time at our Big Bentley Christmas party this year. I love my family!!!


My family was asked to do part of the program this year. Shanae put together this awesome little play about Jesus. I especially loved it because my kids did all the speaking parts and they did so good. Dasan was Samual the Lamanite, Damian was Nephi and Alexa was a cute modern day girl.

Also my sisters, my mom, and I were able to do this fun Christmas dance. We danced to Heidi singing "I'll I want for Christmas is you". It was so fun making this dance up and performing it.

My awesome aunt and cousins. We missed you Jenn!


I love my cute Grandma and Grandpa. I love this tradition of Grandpa giving all the kids Grandparent gifts. That is a lot of gifts to hand out! They have over one hundred decendants. Amazing!
