Millee Elizabeth Samuelson

I've tried to write a post about my Angel niece, Millee Elizabeth, who died June 11, 2013. My sister delivered her still born. Words cannot describe all that took place during that week. There was heartache, tears, blessings and sacred experiences happen. Jana was able to write down her and her families experience of what took place. If you feel so, you can read about it here

I have never seen my sister stronger than she was when she had to bury her baby girl. She was strong, courageous and more importantly faithful. She never questioned, Why Me. She was never mad at God. She looks at Millee as her perfect blessing.  And Millee is. I can say, my sister is my true hero.

I wanted to share a few pictures of the week of Millee's graveside.
My mom was able to fly in from NC and be there. It was so great to have my mom there. She was such a great support to all of us, especially to Jana. And it was nice for the grandkids to have their Grandma around for a few days.

This man is our OB. He has delivered all our our children. He is honestly the best doctor in the world. I am extra grateful that he was the one who was able to be there to deliver Millee. He took such great care of Jana and Jake.

Here are the pictures for the rest of the week.

We loved being with all the cousins and Grandma.

Winston had only met my mom once before, and he was only 7 weeks old. I loved that my mom knows my Winn just a little more now :)

 I love her and miss her. XO

 my little fishy

 saying goodbyes are never fun :(

But at least we will be seeing her and Grandpa soon! :)

Playing with Friends

We were so sad to leave our neighborhood when we moved.

We stayed up extra late

laughed extra hard

enjoyed outside

and had too much fun playing before we moved away.

We miss our neighbors and our friends every day

Lehi Days

The week before we moved, James ran Ragnar with his brothers - which left me home with the boys packing. When I was sick of packing we tried to find may things to keep us busy. 

Luckily for us it was Lehi Days. That Saturday I took the boys to the Lehi Parade. It was so fun and so hot. We lasted for about an hour but we lost to the heat. 

 My niece was Little Miss Lehi.

It was so fun watching her in the Parade!

 oh to try to get a pictures :)

and then we went and picked up Daddy!
