Loving married life! Hawaii (Oahu) was wonderful! We drove around the island and saw everything! Horseback ridding through the Dole Plantation, Snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, Went to the Polynesian Cultural Center. Visited many beaches including the Waikiki Aquarium, Hiked into Diamond Head and even spent some time in our hotel room burnt to a crisp.. Good times!
We got home July 4th and had a letter waiting for us from Own A Allred. Long drawn out story but we were not going to be married legally because we didn't want my sister wife to feel like she was any less important then the first wife was. Owen told us we needed to get it done legally so.. Legally we were married on July 5th 1994.
Not long after we were married We found out we were expecting our first child. Corey was born April 29th 1995 at 12:02 A.M. in our apartment in West Jordan. Morning sickness was awful! I got sick every day till he was born. I even got sick while I was in labor. I was so happy to be a mother but at the same time I was dealing with PPD (Postpartum Depression) I had no Idea it was normal and was not about to talk to anyone about the thoughts I was having.

Corey!
Not long after Corey's birth, I was sitting at the Kitchen Table, in our New home in Riverton, eating breakfast when I had this wave of nausea hit me. I thought for a second it was the flu coming on then thought. "I know this feeling!" I went right over to my midwifes home and we took a Pregnancy test. It was positive. Corey was 6 Months old and I was 3 months pregnant!! I cried for 3 days. I was not ready for another baby! It took some time to accept the pregnancy and by the time Cerena was born I was ready to be a mother of 2 children really close in age. Again, PPD set in. It was harder this time and took much longer to let up! (2 years)

Cerena!
Those 2 were the best of friends as they grew up!
We are living in the house that Brian built in Riverton with his mother and brothers, Jeremy and Jacob living in the basement and Sister Hannah in a bedroom upstairs. Life isn't without it'stress but I try, again to lay low and hope family life stays good. For the most part, it does.
Then.... Brians Sister and Brother-in-law start to Study!!
