The Love of a Two Year Old

So, Richard surprised me last weekend with a spa getaway for the two of us! It was so nice!! I sure love that man!! When Ellary heard that we were leaving for the weekend she broke down in tears and said "Oh, Mommy! Please take me with you! I need to go with you because I Love You!" I picked her up and gave her hugs and kisses. While consoling her I asked "Oh Ellary, is Mommy your best friend?" Her reply was, "No, Sara is!!" You have to love the honesty of a child!!

Ellary and Alana in Utah for a week of Fun,Food, Family and Friends!!

What a great trip Ellary and I had visiting in Utah! There is just never enough time to see everyone and do everything we would like while we are there. We've decided that we need to start staying for 2 weeks instead of 1!! We had so much fun with my sister Shay and her awesome kids. Those kids always make me smile! I hate that we live so far away. Shay and I especially enjoyed our two day BYU Women's Conference! It was an amazing experience to be among the 18,000 women who attended. I can't wait to go back next year!

I Love my Morgan!! Those girls are growing up way too fast! They will always be my baby girls!!
Ellary is proud of her BYU shirt!!
On our way home, we had a stop in Minneapolis. The pilot just loved Ellary and invited her to visit the cockpit and take pictures with him! She was thrilled!!!

What on earth have we been doing lately?

Life is so busy. Our four children are always on the go and keep us constantly running. Sports are a major ingredient in our household. During the spring Jace plays lacrosse and Sara plays softball. Zachary has tried a little bit of everything and is now working on earning his belts in TaeKwonDo! Ellary, for now, is just the all around good sport. She doesn't complain as she gets toted from one event to the other. Sometimes it can get really tricky when we have two games starting at the same time on opposite ends of town and both parents want to be with both children!! Cheering for the kids on the sidelines is one of our greatest enjoyments!!

Jace has become quite the lacrosse player. He just playd in four games on Saturday during a tournament. His team won 3 games and lost one!

Sara with Coach Tina! We were so proud of Sara as she earned the game ball during the first game of the season!!

Aaron David Lee 11/24/77 - 4/9/09

Last month we experienced one of the toughest moments of life. On April 9th we were extremely devastated by the sudden death of our 31 year old brother in law, Aaron Lee. Aaron was married to Richard's sister, Katherine. What a great example he was to all of our family members. He will be terribly missed by so many. We traveled to Indiana and Idaho for Aaron's memorials and had the opportunity to bond together as a family during a most difficult time in life. Our lives are changed forever after our experiences. I am so grateful that I know that Families are Forever! Life is such a precious gift that we should enjoy everyday! Aaron will definitely leave a big hole in the Yeoman family, but we are so grateful that we will all be united together again one day! WE LOVE YOU, Aaron!
