16 years!!

I have been married to the man I love for 16 years! I can't believe it has been that long!! I truly feel blessed to have created a beautiful family with him. We reminisced about the past 16 years and it made us realize just how far we have come. I love you baby!!

Merry Christmas!

I intended to blog more this month, but instead spent the time having Christmas School with my children and making gifts and just trying to have fun together. I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful family. I hope everyone has a blessed and joyful Christmas!!! :)

Christian is 10!!

He's made it to the double digits!!

A few things about Christian:

He is a super serious kiddo.

He has a LOT of energy!

He has a great smile.

He adores his little brothers, he totally and completely dotes on them and it is so sweet.

He looks up to his big brother.

He will still hold my hand.

He has a very service oriented heart.

We love you so much Christian and look forward to watching you grow into a sweet young man.

Can it be?!

16 years ago I gave birth to my first born. Oh man, where has time gone. I can't believe I have a young man that is 16. I realize his time with us is getting less each year and it makes me sad and happy...sad for me, happy for him to serve a mission, go to school, find a wife. You know all those wonderful things in life! I guess I am just feeling like he is growing up way to fast.

A few things about Austin...
His favorite colors are purple and black.
He still enjoys legos. (which I think is AWESOME!)
He is a great writer.
He is a very thoughtful person and I don't just mean he is kind but that he really

likes to think about things.

He has braces!

He loves to read, esp. the classics

He is seriously a great big brother.

He is also a wonderful son. He is always there to help me out when I need a helping hand. He seems to be able to sense when I am stressed and just jumps in to help lighten my load!

I am so grateful that Heavenly Father blessed my husband and I with such a wonderful son! We love you lots Austin!
