Our precious Millie

I haven't blogged for quite awhile!! A lot has happened in our little family! :)  We now have a sweet new spirit that has joined us!! Millie was born May 5, 2013 at 4:50 p.m.  She is so SWEET!! She has her mom and dad wrapped around her little finger! :) We love her SO much!  Millie was breech for a while and was born with something called Hip Dysplasia... Which apparently is quite common in First born females that are breech.  However... Nate and I and our families aren't as familiar with it! Millie is one tough little girl though!  She had quite a busy first week of life! She has already seen 3 doctors... one of them being Dr. Stevens at Primary Children's.  They all assure us that she will be fine!  But still it is hard on her Momma!! :) Millie has to wear a harness that helps her hips stay where they need to.  We have to go back to Salt Lake the end of June for a checkup.. We are praying that she will be in the 85% of the cases that the harness fixes.  They say that she will adapt to the harness a lot faster then her parents will!  I never thought this Mom thing could be so hard on the heart!! :) I love that little girl so much!! We are so grateful that she is in our family and she is already SO spoiled!! I just wanted to share  some pictures with everyone of my sweet little baby!

I love to see the Temple!!!

We had the best sacrament meeting on Sunday! The spirit was so strong in the meeting.  Sister Hoopes talked to us about "be still and listen" She told us how todays world is a total rush.  I agree with her completely! She said that even when people go to the temple they are in a hurry with errands to run before and after.  It was so good to be reminded that we need to take the time to do the things that are right.  Take time to say meaningful prayers, take time to read and study our scriptures and words of the prophet, and take the time to go to the house of the Lord and take the time to prepare to go there so we are ready to do the work that needs to be done.  Some little kids sang I love to see the Temple.  It is so amazing that a simple primary song can bring the spirit so strong.  I had tears in my eyes just listening to the words.  I am so grateful that I was able to be married in the Temple and be able to receive the blessings from attending as much as we can. We are so blessed to live so close to a beautiful temple and I do admit that I think we take that for granted sometimes and do need to be better about going more often. I'm glad that we had the opportunity to have that great reminder on Sunday and am going to try to take advantage of being so close to the Temple! 

Terrible Blogger!!!

Wow! Its almost been a year since I last blogged! I am terrible! It has been a fast year and a lot has happened in the last year!  My mom and dad decided to stay home this winter! It has been an AWESOME winter for Idaho! Its been quite warm, and hardly no snow! But to catch you up on the last year, I graduated from Massage Therapy School in December. and have been working for my dad until I am able to find a job. I am actually starting Wednesday at Dr. Mellor's office, he is a chiropractor and I am so excited because that is the direction that I wanted to take my massage career.  Also, we added 2 little girls to the family! Kegan and Whitt had a little girl named Marley.  She is so much fun! Kenz and Andy also had a little girl named Jerzi. She definitely has a good serious face that makes all of us smile!! Her brothers love her so much! Our family doubled in kids this last year! Its so fun to have the little ones around! Also our Sister in law Katie (Justins wife) is pregnant with a little girl! so many babies! Just not any coming our way for awhile!! We love our nieces and nephews! :) We are still living in Teton, we really enjoy it here! The people we rent from had twin boys! We hear them, but it is still the cute little cry! :) Nate is currently laid off, for a little while, he has been helping my dad with whatever he needs. I quite enjoy it cuz I get to see him a lot! ha ha! and to be honest I think my dad will be sad to see him go back to work!! We had a great Holiday Season, its nice to live close to both families so we usually get to see everybody! Also I turned 21!! yahoo! lol, we went to Vegas with my dad to a show 2 days after my birthday and of course got carded! ha ha I had to go get my license and everything! But I was LEGAL!! We are just plugging away and loving life! :) we cant wait for spring so we can start riding and roping outside at my dads! like I said, its been a awesome winter but we still need the frost to leave!! Hopefully I can be better at blogging this year!!

Spring Fever!

Well I think we all have Spring Fever around here!!! Its so close! We are all trying to get things cleaned up before my parents come home in 4 weeks! WOW! some people would say thats along time! But for me and Nate its not that long because we have to find a place to live and get moved out! :) crazy! that was a fast 4 months!  I have been going to school for about a month and am LOVING it! :) its so fun! so if you need a massage call me! lol Nate is still working, and will start again in Idaho Falls, which will be super nice! It will be good to have him around more often!! We are all craving to be able to ride outside and to be able to start doing what we love again... OUTSIDE!!! :) I did go to a barrel race last week, for the first time in six months! Me and Handcock have been kinda hit and miss with both of us being laid off for months at a time, but hopefully we are past all that and it will be up from here! it was fun to just go fast again! but we can not wait to be able to rope and ride and everything in our back arena! Slowly but surely Spring is coming! Well thats all for now! pray for spring!!!!

My cute little TUFF

Well... What a week!! It was my birthday on sunday and then valentines on monday!  To say the least it was a pretty good week!  It even started early! On friday Nate and I went to Hamer where Nate told me we had to pick up a ball for our new truck, well... we pulled in and he says to me, Happy Birthday! We are here to get you a puppy. Of course I thought he was just teasing me!! But he was serious! So I think I got the best Birthday/Valentines Day present ever!!! We named him Tuff. and he is such a good puppy! He is a mini Australian Shepherd and he is a little fir ball! :) We love him, and Nate lets him ride with him on the tractor!! :) I had a wonderful Birthday!! We had some family come over for cake and ice cream! it was fun! I even got REALLY spoiled by family in Soda!! :) We definitely missed my parents but they called and were here in spirit! Then for Valentines day, after work and school, we just kept it simple and we got to go eat with Nate's cousin JR. It was a good evening, now its all over! Back to everyday life! :) Thanks to everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday! and a special thanks to my wonderful husband! :) 

I love my little puppy! 

Loves to give kisses to Nash!

Tired after a long day at play!
