Joy

This year has brought a lot of new beginnings. I'm thrilled that one of these new starts is getting to go back to school after nearly 12 years. And I'm not just getting to go to any school, I've started a program through BYU Idaho, which if you haven't heard, is pretty much the best university there is on this planet! Everything has the gospel at it's core and it's crazy how organized and perfect it is. With that being said, I have already learned so much about life and myself six weeks in. Mostly, I've been working a lot of my perception of all that is around me, and trying desperately to cling to the gospel in everything I do. 

Yesterday, Nate was mowing, I was sitting. I watched. The girls played, together. It was magical. I feel so blessed. In all that is negative in our world, it's good to be able to feel positive about the simple joys we get to enjoy daily.

Four of Five!

Look who has joined the club! There seems to be a trend occurring in the Campbell household. 

Winnie: "When's my turn?"

Five!

Clearly I am a little behind on the whole blogging front.  Our sweet, optimistic Piper turned five back in June. We had a cake made from 40 donuts! She loved it! I think this year we may have found her birthday treat.

This picture was taken the morning of her birthday, pretty much the excitement she gives us daily. I love that about her! 

And if you were wondering, those vibrant bracelets she has on are still hanging around on her wrists.  She is awesome like that!

Our Baby

After a long break of non blogging, I decided last night that I would definitely take some pictures of Winnie and load them up so the grandparents could see how much she has changed....and how much she likes to play with all things iPhone, iPad etc. 

After we dropped the girls off at school, Winnie and I bundled up and headed to the square on our bike.  It was cold. She was/is adorable! After nearly two years of anticipation, her hair is making a grand debut, although she still won't have anything to do with bows. She is much too cool for that I suppose. 

She is the baby of three and you would definitely know it by her strong personality. We love this girl!

Flashback Friday!!

Nearly two years has gone by since this was taken. Look how tender Charly and Piper are admiring Winnie! Makes my heart smile.
