Blankets

With the help of my amazing neighbor, I am learning how to sew. I went out and purchased a sewing machine about a month ago and I have been none stop sewing. Maridyn has taught me how to make rag quilts which are super easy and fun. It is a nice way for me to stay busy while Alex is at school and studying.
This was my first ever blanket. I made it for one of the girls that I babysit. Blue is her favorite color so I found this really comfy blue material and It was the worse I had blue material from one end of my house to the other. I learned my lesson really fast that I will never use this material again.



Next was a blanket for my niece Kiara (AKA Kiwi) She loves Lime green and Hannah Montana. But then again what 6 almost 7 year old does not love Hannah. They recently re-did her room in Lime green and Hot pink so for her birthday I thought this would be a fun little surpise!!!

6 months of pure joy

Thank you McKenlee for the best six months of our lives!!!:)
It is crazy to think that six months ago today I was lying in a hospital bed recovering from delivery. Little did we know how much our lives where going to change since then. We have had many smiles, laughs, tears, screaming sleepless nights, throw ups, and dirty diapers, but having McKenlee in our lives is worth it all. We love her so much and can't wait to see what new thing she does next. She is such a blessing and has brought such a beautiful spirit into our home. We love you McKenlee.

Valentine's Day 2010

I am so blessed to have such a wonderful little family. This Valentine’s Day was totally different than in years past. For the last 5 years I have shared this day with the one I love but this year I was able to share it with the 2 that I love. We are so lucky to have this little angel in our lives we love her so very much, she is the best thing that has happened to us. She is the best Valentine that anyone could give me. I love you McKenlee and I look forward to each day I get to learn from you, Alex thank you so much for all you do and for our beautiful little daughter:)

Utah Trip in Review

McKenlee and I went on yet another trip to Utah. We got such a great deal on flights we could not pass it up. We always have a great time with family. McKenlee always gets spoiled, and uncle Justin always gives her stuff that she should not be having at home. Notice the blue tongue that would be uncle justin's doing. he thinks that he is so funny:)

She's going to be a Junk food Junky thanks to uncle Justin and Grandpa.


Once again McKenlee with something she probably should not have!!!

My sister is starting a new photography business so while she was taking a few pictures I also pulled out my camera and got a few pictures. I thought these were to cute.
