Showered with Love!

Wow, I cannot believe how spoiled this baby is. My sweet sisters, friends from the ward, and young women all did a baby shower for us. It was so much fun just to even get together with everyone! Thank you so much for the awesome gifts. This baby will be very warm and not to mention styling with all her accessories! Love to all my amazing friends and family!

A plead for prayers!

My sweetest Uncle Jeff was diagnosed with Leukemia just recently and has took turns for the worst. I just wanted to list my appreciation for him and ask everyone to keep him and his family in your prayers.

A few things I love about my Uncle Jeff
  • waking up early game day Saturday mornings with Uncle Jeff already there, ready for the game. Singing "rise and shout the cougars are out!"
  • going to the games with Dad and Uncle Jeff . My favorite was to sit between them, although it seemed that the games did get more tense sometimes. You could feed of the excitement!
  • watching Dad and Uncle Jeff eat popcorn. This was an event all by itself at the game.
  • ice cream after the game at the creamery. Uncle Jeff enjoyed every bite always of his ice cream. ( that's how you enjoy a bowl of ice cream)
  • he always is genuinely interested about everyone.
  • always has a great story to tell.
  • The best is the long tight hugs that sometimes you don't think you can breath. But as soon as he lets go, you want another hug.
  • His extreme patience for a teenager. We droved to Blanding with my drivers permit and Uncle Jeff and Dad visited and watched patiently as the six hour trip quickly turned into nine. I drove probably 45 mph with semi's passing me the whole way!
  • HIs yummy fudge recipie, and how he told me in detail over them phone how to make it (it probably still didn't turn out because I made it though)

I love you Uncle Jeff! With lot 's of loves and hugs.

The Move!

Okay, life is crazy. What more can I say. We finally decided we could move. We got into the new house the weekend after Christmas and are still waiting for everything to be finalized. Half of our house is still at the other house. Which includes much of what I need to have a baby. Which of course she'll be here soon. Even with all the craziness we are constantly reminded of how blessed we are. When one door closed another one has opened just in the nick of time. Thanks to all my family and our amazing neighbors, we are settled for now. Jake now is asking, "sister is coming now?" We had him set up for the timeline. Christmas, new house, sister. A lot of big things for a three year old, and he is so excited! I will post pictures of the move later, our computer is down for now.
