No Time

We have been so busy this month. Jeff has been busy with the new job and training and planning. He is also in the Young Mens Presidency, sooooo..... that takes a lot of time. He was out of town, gone camping, busy busy busy. I am trying to keep up with two kids. With any free time I have been working on bows. The bows are a lot of fun and I am excited that people like them.

Sadie and Evan are getting so big. They play really well. Evan is a great big brother. He shares with Sadie pretty good. He know that he has to get Sadie a new toy before he takes whatever she has away. My patients is gone by the end of the week, but really they are both great kids. I love them to pieces.

I am so happy that summer is almost over! This family loves the fall. Fall is the best time of year. We always laugh and say we need to live in Colorado. We love to wear jackets and sweaters. I love fall fashion. So yeah! No more heat, lets get the sweaters out! Plus everyone is so much happier when we can be outside and it not be so hot.

Moving Day

Sad day for the Decker's. The Chalker's moved! My brother Jon and his wife Carly have lived in Lake Elsinore for six years. We have been out here by them for the past year and a half. I have always been really close to Jon and after we got married we have been even closer it seems. Our families just get along and we do everything with them. Evan's best friend is little Mathew. And now there gone. I really didn't think it would happen, it is very sure real. I didn't think it would effect me as much as it did when we drove away after the house was packed and Carly was packed ready to go in the car. It really hit me and it is hard to see them all go. We will see them still BUT it is not the same. So we are all sad to see them go. Carly is like a sister, she and I have really become close. I could always count on Carly! My brother married above himself. She really is a great mom and wife and a really good friend. We love them and I really hope that this move is a fresh start for them and that it will be a good move! We love you guys.

Carly's Baby Shower

Carly is having her 3rd kid and all three will be in diapers. So.... we threw her a Diaper Shower. We had everyone just bring a package of diapers for there gift. She end up with a lot of diapers. Woohoo! It was a really nice night. Carly deserves the world, I hope it was a nice night for her.

Family Pictures

For our anniversary all I wanted was to take a good family picture. We have some friends in the ward, the Price family and we knew that they took great pictures. They really are great and a good price too. They really did a fantastic job. I highly recommend them.

Five Years Down..... Eternity to Go

Last weekend we celebrated the five year mark. It is funny to think back to when we were teenagers, dating one boy for a year was a big deal. But now that we have been married for five years, it does not seem like that long. When you look at the big picture, it is nothing.



Looking back on the last five years is kind of fun. We realised that we have come a long way, and have been blessed. So here is my list of the top five things that we have been able to do.


1. We have two of the most wonderful kids. I love both of them so much. It is so hard and so rewarding being a parent. I would do anything for those two. They have taught me so much. They are perfect!

2. We have been able to travel. We have been to: Kauai, London, Paris, Chile, Costa Rica, Mexico, Chicago, and of course Utah. That has been really fun to be able to travel the world like that. We have been very blessed.

3. Changed jobs. Jeff started out working for a life insurance company. Then he moved over to Honeyville where he worked for his old mission pres. And now he is able to have to coolest job ever, working as a seminary coordinator and teaching institute. Each job has been great. Looking back we can see that each job change has been so good for our family.

4. We are home owners. We started out in a really really small studio apartment in Tustin. Form there we bought a condo in Tustin. And now we own a beautiful new home in Menifee. We feel so grateful that we have the spirit to guide us. I do not know how you can feel sure about a move with out the reassurance from the spirit.

5. We have had some really good times and really hard times. But.... we have grown up a lot. We are always being tested and growing. We have built a life together and have grown up together. I do not know where we will be in another five years, but the last five have been a fun ride.
