Life Has Settled Down

So this passed month has been kinda crazy! In a good way for the most part! We just returned from Oregon from my Grandpas Fruneral. I was really greatful that we were able to be a part of that and celbrate his life and be with my grandma at that time! We are now back to our day to day lifes keeping busy! Reality hit us that people really do have to work!!! Jk!! Olivia is also greatful to be back home and enjoying spending time with her friend Emmy!! We are just hanging in there and enjoying life!! I am grateful for my family and what great examples they are to me and also grateful for the Gospel in my life and how much peace and comfort it brings into my life and into my home!!

I love Being a Mom!

So I cant believe that it has already been a year since I had Olivia!! She is getting so big, and i love to watch her learn and grow each day! I am so blessed to be able to have such a wonderful husband who works so hard so i can stay home with Olivia! Some days it seems hard and stressful but everyday there are those moments that are precious and so much fun! I was worried at first when i started watching a little girl during the day that it would change the relationship that Livvy and I have, but everyday when Emmy goes down for a nap we get to spend some time and be silly, dance and sing and give Loves! I love being a mom it so much fun and so rewarding!! Olivia brings so much laughter and love in my life!!! She is growing so big and has such a fun loving personality!!! I love It!!!

Olivia's First Birthday

Last sunday was Olivia's Birthday! We had a ton of fun! We first celbrated and opened presents at our house. Then we went to Grandma Pehrsons and had cupcakes that she spread all over her face! Then we went to Grandma Smiths and had a little party with cake and ice cream and presents! Then we got on the airplane to North Carolina when we got to annas house it was all decorated for Olivia! They made cupcakes and we ate some more!!! Livvy had a great time, she now loves cake and presents!!! Here are a few pictures from her 2 day birthday!!!

Fun With Family!

We are finally back from our vacation! It was so much fun, we had a great time, but it is always nice to come back home!! We first went to Oregon to see my grandparents It was really nice to spend some time with them! Then we came home for a day and got to celebrate Livvy's birthday!( I will post more on that later!). We then took off that night to North Carolina to see the Sissons!! It was so much fun to see them, it has been a while! We did so many fun things with them and just hanging out! I loved it! And so did Livvy! She loved being around her cousins and getting all the attention, even though she had to know right were mom was all the time!! We spent a few days with them and then we ventured our way down to South Carolina where Wayne had served his mission! There was a lady that he has kept in contact with, she was one that Wayne taught the discussions to. She is the sweetest lady and we had a lot of fun with Joan! Here are a few pictures of our great adventures! Enjoy

What A Blessing!

Well these last couple of weeks have been quite Crazy! We went up to see my Grandpa who is suffering from cancer! It was a really good visit and i am glad that we got that opportunity to see them. Unfortunantly on the way there on New Years Eve we had an accident and rolled our vehicle. We are so blessed to say that we walked away with only a few bumps and bruises but our car got totaled. IT was the scariest thing that has ever happened and i know that we were watched over and protected upon. We didnt get a picture of the totaled car, we were to in shock and were not quite thinking right!! We are so blessed to have such a great family and friends who have prayed and offered us many things. Thankjs to his moms cousin, he contacted the bishop and we were able to hitch a ride wiht some students traveling back to BYU to go to school. It is so great to have the church wherever you go!!! We were very blessed. We are all doing well with still some stiffness and are chilling in North Carolina with my sister and her cute little family! It has been so crazy but so good!
