Its high time for a new post!

So I think its maybe been a lifetime since I have posted anything. Yep, I believe it has. What a shame! I decided that I am going to take this Thanksgiving Break to update our blog. We were headed to Wyoming and now plans have changed.....and our blog is HATING life and wishing for an update :)

So you may be wondering what is new with us?? Well for starters we moved to Helper about a month ago. We LOVE, l-o-v-e, LoVe, it here! The views are beautiful from our kitchen and living room and its SO much nicer than Smellington {Wellington} Savannah is now obsessed with us living by Balance Rock as well. Its quite funny.

Olivia will be 1 on Dec 3rd and I am quite amazed by where the time went in that year?! I mean, really, where does time go? While I thought I would be so sad about losing my baby girl, she is turning into such an amazing little girl already. She loves, loves, loves her mama too so maybe that is helping to aid in the transition! We are done having babies so that is where the worry came in! She has vampire teeth {eat your heart out Twilight fans...} gives five, claps and says mama, dada, nana and HI! Its SO dang cute! So to celebrate her big day we are having a Cookies & Milk Bash for her! I am stoked! We may have to throw some popsicles into her celebration, they have quickly become her new favorite and its so fun to watch her pant when she gets excited over seeing the box.....or even seeing the freezer door opening. Funny girl!

Ella is 2 and has an attitude at times. Most of the time she is sweet, very helpful and compliant. Then there are the days where she woke up on the WRONG side of the bed and well any of you with kids know how the rest of the story goes....other than that thought. She is amazingly smart as well. Quiet about it too. She can count to ten already and says some incredible sentences, etc. She is also very gifted physically.



Savannah is 4 and starts Kindergarten next fall. This will be a hard but great day in our house. I am sad to see her walk down that road already but so HAPPY for her to make friends. She is incredibly social and craves it. She is most definitely my child! I love to socialize and chat, as we all know. ha ha. She says the craziest things and grasps things that sometimes I just dont think a child of her age should. But she is just so mature!

Anyway I guess I dont have much else exciting to write about at 1 am. Tomorrow, during normal waking hours I may find this more amusing and be able to think of the things we have been up to around here besides the obvious {our kids} ha ha.

For those of you leaving town tomorrow, Happy Thanksgiving. May you take a deep breath and reflect upon all the beautiful blessings in your life. Making sure to take the time to say thank you and "I love you" to those that need to hear it most. I am surely blessed in this life of mine and cant help but feel so grateful everyday for the gifts God has placed before me. My life can puzzle me at times and leave me feeling nervous and unsure of my future, however as long as I am able to have faith and love my family and myself and those around me, even those in need that I do not know, I shall be okay. Its one of yet another blessing placed in my life. :)

Happy Thanksgiving! Much Love!
