Our Family

We are the Kemp family. We have been married for 6 1/2 years. We have 4 children ranging from 5 and under. Though we know we went fast, we always wanted 4 children, and they've been blessings in their own ways. We hope to help them make their way through life and help them become good, reliable, charitable, hopeful, happy people, and to be healthy psyically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. We also hope to instill the meaning of honesty, faith, worth, knowlegde wisdom, and integrity.

My Sweet Man!

This is my sweet, dear, and sexy hubby. He is my dark knight in shining armour. He has dark mysterious eyes, with gorgeous eyelashes that I'm always threatening to take in the middle of the night and glue them to my eyes, dark shiny careless hair, and what a smile! Though at the time I didn't want to admit it, because I thought it was too soon, I knew I was meant to be with him. He treats me like a lady, and he spoils me. He cooks and bakes (awesomly), cleans, takes care of the cars and lawn, changes diapers and helps bath and cloth the children, is a good provider, and a wonderful support, even when the times get tough.

If there is one thing that he is really good at, it is his passion for cars and stereo systems. Almost every month someone is asking his help to install a system. His passion for cars are more into the imports and into the upgrades, sometimes he likes a little too much as far as power and therefore I lovingly refer him as "Tim the Toolman".

He has a very broad range of other interests. He loves other mechanical things, such as manly tools. He lately has been really interested in how computers work and putting them together. He's also interested in the medical field, specifically radiology (he says that's because he's had so many x-rays through his life). And as I had stated earlier he's a great chef. He loves to just cook and bake, and would love to have his own restraunt, though he's not too fond of the clean up. In fact he's made most of the goodies we've given out for Christmas to our family and friends while I've been studying and doing my finals.

I want the best for this man. I love him dearly. I know his potential and I want him to reach what he is searching for. I also want for him to take time to enjoy the journey. To relish in those struggles that will make him stronger. I want him to know everyday how much in love with him I am. I want him to know how much he's really worth and that to us, as many others, he's worth the world.

Ok so this is me. Well, I like to hang with family and friends. I love to be able to be fortunate enough to have my family without any difficulty. I love to be able to stay at home and raise my children and help them learn and understand the world around them. I love their hugs, kisses, and messages of inspiration to get through the day. I love to learn. I love to figure out people, as well with myself. I love to figure how the body and the mind work. Why things work out the way they do and why we act the way we do. That is why I want to go into a double degree in medicine as well as Psychology.

I love the gospel. I love that it is so inspiring. I love that I have something to look forward to and be grateful for always. I love to meet new awesome people. I love good food, good music, a good movie, good company, a good laugh, a good book, and even a good nap sometimes.

My goal is to create my legacy, and I understand that this is an ongoing struggle. I understand that life isn't a destination but a continual journey. I'm glad I have a good husband, children, family and friends to share it with and to hold onto during this journey

I just hope that as struggles go on that I won't be too hardened. That we will be able to keep in mind the important things. That human connections will continue to be stronger. And that we will all be able to endure to the end, with the help of each other.

Princess Faithy

This is our oldest Princess. I feel bad that we didn't get enough photos of her on our outing that day, but that doesn't mean I don't have enough. She's soooo photogeneic. As you can see she loves the camera, and the camera loves her. She has this awesome personality, she loves to be mommy, she's willing to help take on just about any mommy duty we will allow her, or that we aske she do (even if she thinks she can send the boys to their rooms). She is such a girly girl! Not quite like her mom who was raised with 3 brothers and needed to be that roughin' tom boy. She loves to dance, sing, play barbies, house, mommy, doctor, and craft cards, letters, and jewelry for her friends.

She also loves to help mommy with chores. Cooking, baking, making beds, putting laundry into the washer, picking up, sweeping, mopping, and she can even use the vaccumm.

I love her personality. She loves to help people. She always wants to see others happy. She has a smile that can't keep you mad or gloomy. Those bright blue eyes, the button nose, the full lips, and baby cheeks, and those girly moves. But don't let that fool you, she still can give quite a fit when she doesn't get her way.

Little Conductor Zander

My Little man who never seems to be satisfied. He's always asking questions, and though some answers may satisfy him they never are interesting enough. He has quite the imagination and will come up with some pretty awesome explinations of his own. He loves to help out. He's eager to grab a wet wash cloth and help mom wipe off the table, cabinet, floor.... well just about anything if you let him, he can get pretty carried away. He also loves Trains, we live not too far from a Track and he loves when we are stopped so that he can talk about all the different cars.

Zander has got big golden brown eyes. He's always so busy that when the camera snaps a picture, he's not always still looking at the camera, but keeps in mind his smile. He has his daddy's dark thick hair and dark eyelashes. He's such a skinny little thing that sometimes I wonder if he's getting enough to eat, or if he just burns it off so fast.

Though he was the last to hit his milestone as far as mobility compared to his siblings, he certainly did hit his vocal milestones earlier then them. He's always full of conversation, contemplation, and curiosity. I think that he'll definately be the one giving me a run for my money when it comes to taking things apart, figuring how they work, then trying to put them back together.

Little man Carter

Such a beautiful little boy. His smile brightens my day. He loves to help his mommy do chores like putting clothes into the washer, pull out the dry clothes, help fill and put away dishes from the dishwasher, sweep the floors, vaccuum and put away toys and throw away garbage.
He definately has an imagination. He carries the name of his mommy's brother Spencer, and he lives up to that name. He has the looks, the imagination, the responsibility, and the need for attention like his uncle.

Those gorgeous eyes! Along with the dirty face. He's not afraid to get messy and live to the fullest.

I love my little man.

Our little Tinkerbelle, Millie

Our little baby. She's definately spoiled. She looks so much like her daddy and brother Zander and daddy's glad he got another princess to be a daddy's girl, though for the while she still prefers mom
Love to spend time with her. It's hard to think the others are grown out of their baby stage and now wanting to run off to do their own thing. Knowing that she's our last just really wants to make you hold on to the new innocence. Hopefully when times come to let her do a little more by herself, we will know enough to allow it and not hold onto her quite so tight.

The Millie grin. It's just so full of life, and carefree. There's no buts to this smile, just pure enjoyment. She likes the attention. It's funny to see her in public and she's always staring at others, like she wants their attention and smiling at them to see their reaction.

It's amazing at the miracle of life and the enjoyments it can bring.

She still needs to grow into the coat a little more. Makes her look like she's playing dress up already. She doesn't mind so much as long as for the most part we pull out her hands so she can use them.

Our Babies

We just decided one day to get out as a family, enjoy the outdoors and take some pictures. I really wanted to do this with the fall colors, so rich, so vibrant. The kids enjoyed themselves thouroughly and didn't want to leave.

It's so fun to watch them grow, and realize that before your eyes they are getting bigger, stronger, and developing their personalities, yet are so blind to it until you look back at the earlier days with them.

Love this picture, it shows their personalities. Faith is such the mommy, yet she loves the attention and loves to pose. Zander is so much into doing his own thing, he's so matter-of-factual kinda boy who loves conversing. Carters just wanting attention and is finally wanting to talk, such a big helper. Then there's little princess Amelia "Millie" by nickname who is just wanting to grow up too fast, has been crawling since just over 5 months, and is wanting to walk already. She wont allow us just to enjoy her being a baby, she's too busy catching up to her siblings.

Trunk or Treat at Weber State's Davis Campus

I love to celebrate Halloween as many times as possible. I don't like that you look forward to an event only to spend one day (usually so busy it's tiring) celebrating it. So we did a few things for Halloween, we went to the Weber State's Davis Campus, then to the ward Trunk or Treat, to my dad's ward Trunk or treat, then on Halloween we just enjoyed going around the families (making our rounds). This is Faith in her elegant witch cosutme.

We took the kids accompanied by my mom and her kids to the Trunk or Treat at Weber State's Davis Campus. This is open to the public like just about everything else. They first had a trunk or treat where those who wanted to decorated their trunks would be provided with candy. After wards They had a Cupcake walk (the one you see my little sister, Kieran standing in her cute fairy costume with purple hair)

They then had a cookie decorating room, and a Monster Bash room where the kids could party to monster music and alot of balloons. Zander is dressed as an English Police officer (Bobby).

Gaven's relaxing with the kids while my mother and I help the others with the cake walk and the decorating. Here our Little Tink is dressed as a cute chubby chicken, and our little man is sporting Tigger wear.

After wards they showed the movie WALL-E with popcorn, capri suns, and other goodies. We didn't stay for very long. The boys are still too small to sit for an entire movie without getting bored, no matter how good the movie is. We went to our ward's chili cook off and more trunk or treating. We lost the camera for a while, so didn't get many pics, maybe on Halloween we'll get more.

Black Island Pumpkin Patch

The kids are sooo excited to pick their pumpkins. This pic looks a little off balance color wise, because it was sooo bright you couldn't differentiate between their faces and the background. Nonetheless, you can see their beautiful excited grins.

We visited Black Island Farm's Pumpkin Patch last Thursday. We had a blast. These pictures actually uploaded backwards from the order I had put them in. This is the kids showing off the pumpkins we picked, while they wait for me to get the car to load them.

This is the family all together, thank you Corn Cop. We had a blast.

There is way more pumpkins then what you see behind me, we're only in the front of one section. It's great that you get a selection, but oh... the options. It was a little too much for Zander to pick his pumpkin.

This is us with our little Tink posing for a pick while on the hayless hay ride.
