Our Story

We got married May 19, 2006 in the Mount Timpanogos LDS Temple in Utah. We live in Omaha, NE and we have 4 amazing kids, Berkley, Nixon, Miles, and Cyrus. Our children bring us so much joy and we absolutely love being a family of 6!

Day 19 of Gratitude!

I am grateful for love! It's so great to love and be loved in return! 7 years ago I went on my first date with the love of my life and now we have been happily married for 6.5 years and I love him more and more all of the time!

I wish that everybody I encountered could love me and that I could make them feel loved...imagine how great that would be!

Day 18 of Gratitude!

Another late one! Oops! I am thankful for my vision and the ability to watch my children learn and grow!

I got to watch Berkley share one of her favorite things in the world (Smarties) with a friend of hers from nursery while we were at stake conference...so precious! It melted my heart like crazy!

I also got to see an opportunity for Aaron to help our neighbors yesterday and I can't imagine how much harder their job would have been for them without him there! I am so thankful to have good vision to see all of these wonderful things!

P.S. I also got to watch Nixon army crawl his way around the living room! He's such a little mover! Especially for a 4.5 month old! Crazy kid! :) Gosh! I love my family!

Day 17 of Gratitude!

Way late, I know! I'm grateful for weekends! After a long week alone with the kids, it is always great to have Aaron home with us on Saturday and Sunday!

We had a great weekend too, including nearly finishing our Christmas shopping (yay!) and checking out the new outlets in Lehi! I wish the weekend could last forever!

Day 16 of Gratitude!

I am thankful for giveaways! It always brightens my day when I win something! The other day I received an email informing me that I had won tickets to Twilight from ksl's Facebook page and I was so excited! We got to go to it tonight and enjoy free drinks and popcorn...it was awesome! Thanks, ksl! It was a great date night!

Day 15 of Gratitude!

I'm thankful for visiting teaching! It's such a neat program that the church has set up for us to get to know each other better and to help us to be there for others.

It's such a blessing and a privilege to have visiting teachers and to be visiting teachers. I'm aiming to be a better visiting teacher and to help the sisters I visit in any and every way that I can!

Day 14 of Gratitude!

This is way late but better late than never...right?! :)

I'm grateful for sleep! Sleep is so energizing and desperately needed when you are a mother of two kids under two.

My kids are pretty good sleepers too thankfully! Berkley usually sleeps for 11 hours straight at night then takes a 3-4 hour nap during the day...wonderful!

Nixon sleeps 8-10 hours straight each night (which is fantastic because he has only been in his own bed in his own room for two weeks now) and usually takes two 3 hour naps during the day!

I definitely can't complain about their sleep habits! Right now (at 9 am) they are both asleep still which is amazing and I love it!

I'm also thankful to have a nice, warm bed to sleep in! In addition to that, I'm grateful for Aaron being so sweet and making his half of the bed before he went to work today...love him to death! :)

Day 13 of Gratitude!

I am grateful for relief society and the way that the church is organized. It was wonderful to get out of the house tonight, even if only for an hour, and get to spend time with other sisters in the ward making things for the Festival of Trees! It was the perfect break for me and now I'm so excited for the Festival of Trees and I hope we actually make it this year!
