St. George, Ut: spring break

Following in her brother's footsteps :)

For JNAC:

Hey girls, here are the pictures. I love the first one of you all under blooming peach tree! It was great to see all of you! Wish we were there more. Oh, and one for Nicole and her cute prego belly!

Red Rocks + Sunshine = my heart

I just got back from a spring break trip to St. George, Ut where I grew up. It will always feel like home, and always have a piece of my heart. My sisters, mom, and I met up there for a week to spend it together. I miss the red rock and springtime. Everything was in full bloom and beautiful.

Dusk & Sunday.

Two of my favorite things. Not to mention my favorite people I get to spend them with.

xoxo-to my little valentines

You are physically, emotionally, spiritually
and undoubtably pieces of my heart.
Thank you for making me want to be a better person.
Thank you for literally filling up my heart with joy.
I hope I am deserving of the love you fill my life
with every single day.

My mom had this hanging in our home growing up. Sometimes it's hard to put everything aside and slow down, but it's definitely worth it when we do.

"Cleaning and scrubbing
can wait til' tomorrow.

Children grow up,
we learn to our sorrow.

So, quiet down cobwebs,
dust go to sleep.

I'm rocking my baby,
cause babies don't keep."

Ouch!

Is this not just disgusting?? My poor little guy fell (that's an understatement) flew, full speed into a bench at McDonald's play place. He was fine after I stopped trying to ice it! It's finally gone down after almost 2 weeks. It's okay Drake, it's just another piece of my heart breaking off.

Dreaming.

Wish I was somewhere. Anywhere. Like this.

New addition.

Meet my new little niece, Nora. Born today. 9 lbs. 2 oz. My oldest sister Ciara's third baby. Oh I love her. Look at those fat cheeks. Congrats! Love you guys and I can't wait to meet her in person!

Dress-up & Pink

Two of your favorite things. Somedays this is all you want to wear. And you wear it all day long.

Little Gavin

I've never met this family, but I've followed Natalie's blog for a while and I feel I know them. I wanted to spread the word. Her 8 week little boy Gavin is in the PICU and needs our prayers. I know I am praying for him to pull thru and to give his great family the comfort and peace they need!! Go Gavin! To read about it click here.

Lego Christmas Village:

Requested by Brandon. Rightfully so, it took him hours to create and hours to take down. We decided on a new family tradition this year for our Christmas Village. Every year we will add something new and build it together for Christmas. I have a feeling Brandon and Drake will be the leaders of this new found tradition! Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and has a wonderful new year!
