How would you define masculinity? Is a man masculine when he opens a door for his wife? Is he still masuline when he opens a door for another man? Here is a picture of our back yard today. Cameron, Mason, and some friends jumping on the trampoline. Then one of them started to cry so Aaron stopped what he was doing and went over to give comfort to them and dried their tears. Is that masuline?



I believe 95% of the population has a misconception of what it is to be masculine. I believe my husband shows the same kind of masculinity that Christ did. Aaron blows me away at how awsome of a man he is. I hope to post more pictures of Aaron. To brag about him a little and how incredible he is.

There are a lot more pictures out there. I hope to round them up and post more soon. We have all fallen in love with our new member of the family. Taylor wants to hold him all the time. Which is not Taylor's personality. I am so glad he has taken to him so fast and so much. Cameron wants to be close to him and stroke his head, but not hold. Cameron also has told me that Emmett is going to grow up to be just like him. Mason has become the BIG brother and tells me all the time that he is big and Baby is small. Mason hasn't gotten the name down yet so he calls him Baby. Before we came up with the name Emmett, Cameron named him Skippy John Jones at school during sharing time the week before. So when Grandpa starting asking for a name for their new brother Cameron and Taylor called him Skip.

Everything is going good with us. Thanks to a wonderful husband that really takes good care of us all and the house at the same time. We hope to see you all this summer. Join us any weekend, we will be out camping somewhere. Love, The Hulls a family of 6 now

First we ate snow, but then soon came the sun and Easter weekend.
This is Jozie and Mason just a week or so ago.

Then we ate eggs.
We had a lot of fun this Easter weekend.

Wow thanks!

Wow, thanks!!! I was glad to here from all of you on that last post. I am so glad to have great women doing great things giving me great examples, in my life. YOU ALL ROCK !
Because I am so tired,because I'm prego, I wanted a easy solution to how to do it all. What I learned was to stop doing it all. I was trying to feel accomplished and fulfilled by getting the kitchen clean or getting all the laundry done. I WAS SO WRONG. I am loving life and loving my boys so much more now that my house is messy. So when you come to visit and my house is trashed know that it's because I have been out running, playing, biking, and laughing with my boys and LOVING it.

Thank you again for telling me that you understand and have been there. You also said to pray, take a moment, fight, procrastinate, sing, talk, cry, nap, remember, find a friend, read, and hold on. Noboby said to stop and give up. All of you are wonderful examples of what I want I want to be so thank you for being that example. I am always watching you and learning!!!

What do you do???

For the few that check in on our world I have a question for you. First of all sorry I don't post very often. I really don't have much going on lately. ANYWAY. My question is...

What do you do when you are having a bad day and you can't throw in the towel and quit. Your day is hard and you wish you could run far far away or even just get up and leave, BUT YOU CAN'T. WHAT DO YOU DO? ! ? ! ?

Basketball

Thanks to my good friend Penny.  We have pictures of basketball.  I am the coach for the 2nd graders and Aaron is the coach for the kindergartners.   Another good friend Jackie watches Mason for us on the sidelines.  He gets to play with her son James and loves it.  All four of us on the court have a fun time each Saturday playing basketball.  

Happy Birthday Bella Mack

Happy 1st Birthday

Something to share

So I am reading To Draw Closer To God by Henry B Eyring and just read a great thought I want to share. "Prophet Joseph Smith assures me and you that once we receive a simple truth, there is something simple to do to qualify for more truth: we have to live what we learn, with enough humility to obey and enough faith to work at it."

Wow cool right? I live most of what I have been taught but not all. So I can not expect to receive answers to my questions if I don't DO what he has already taught me!!!
