Christmas is on it's way... and believe it or not, I think I'm
ready. I actually even got Christmas Cards out this year.



This time of year has been a lot of fun. Celebrating Holidays
with our little blessing is so cool. I know he doesn't really
understand what's going on... but his Mom and Dad are having
a blast making memories.



Speaking of memories...

Braedyn's first Thanksgiving was a busy one. We made it to
both families celebration. Lucky for us, they were spread out
enough that we could do that. Everything we experience is
a blessing. I am so very thankful for everything in my life.
I'm Thankful for my husband and the life that he has allowed
me to have. I get to stay home and raise Braedyn. He keeps
me smiling day in and day out. I am so very grateful for the
blessings ouf our Heavenly Father in bringing us to this little
town we call home, Randolph Utah. I am so completely
grateful for the house we were able to buy and move into.
In a nut shell... I am thankful for everything that I have...
and for everything yet to come.


Here are a few pictures....

It' all about time... and I have finally found some to start our blog.
So... sit back and enjoy the Little Pieces we can call life.
Recently, I have delved into the world of Digital Scrapbooking.
Below are a few of the first pages that I have created.
I must admit, it's a little addicting. It's mess free and I can
do it while Braedyn sleeps on the sofa next to me. In
the background plays the latest DVR"ed" episode of
Desperate Housewives.


As you can tell we are very proud parents. Our little angel arrived
on July 14th weighing in at 8 pounds, 1 ounce. To say that we
have cherished every minute with him since his birth would be
an understatement to say the least. Is it possible to fall in love
a little more each day?

A couple of weekends ago, our little family traveled to Salt Lake
for our Annual Seasonal visit to Gardener Village. Each year
in October, it miraculously becomes the Witch Village.
Everything we do creates Memories for our mental archives...

This will be a Great Memory.
