Appreciate each day and moment!

For the superbowl this year we went to my sister Wendy's house they just finished their basement. When I went upstairs to check on the kids I found them dancing with each other! It was so cute.

A couple of weeks ago my mom called and had taken my Dad to the hospital. He was having chest pain. They admitted him to ICU and monitored him overnight. We packed up and went to Logan to make sure everything was ok. He is doing much better now - thank goodness! My dad has had quite a few health problems for about 10 years. It scared me to think about losing him. I look up to my dad so much. He is such a great dad and Grandpa I can't wait until they move down to Salt Lake this fall and we can spend alot more time with him and my mom. It really made me think - none of us know how much time we have! I have tried to think of that everyday. There are lots of days that I am frustrated with this or that or Dave or the kids and I have been TRYING to be better at appreciating each day and moment. Live with no regrets!

I peeked in on your blog and saw what a cute family you have. They are certainly growing. We miss you in the ward.

Good post Steph. I am glad your dad is okay - things like that always put life into perspective. Lets plan dinner soon and game night. I am in need of some good laughs!
