Christmas Break!!!

We had so much fun spending our Christmas break in Colorado. We were there for a little over three weeks. It was really great being in the mountains and playing in the snow with our family. I love Colorado and miss it already. I have tons of pictures of our trip, so these are just the begining.


We were on our way to the mountains to play in the snow.



There wasn't alot of snow were we went but it was enough and everyone had fun.







This is me with my brother Kelly.











Spencer's Christmas present from me this year was a night away. We left the kids with my parents and went to downtown Denver to eat and walk around 16th Street. It was really fun to be back there because that was were Spencer proposed to me.
the next day we slept in and went to Boulder and to a movie. It was a nice little get away.

Snow Day in Baton Rouge

















I know when you see these pictures alot of you are thinking "no big deal there's snow on the ground" well it sure suprised us when we woke up on Thursday. It doen't happen that often in Baton Rouge so we were really excited but really cold. Baton Rouge is not prepared for weather like this so we lost our power for a good chunk of the day but it was fun trying to stay warm and playing in the snow for a couple of min. at a time. We also made hot chocolate and ate popcorn (Eriks Favorite). It was a really good day.

I feel so blessed to be a mother. I am so grateful for Erik and Laney in my life. They brighten up my day. It makes me happy to watch them play and grow. I love their laughs and smiles. I feel so thankful that I get to spend my days with such wonderful little beings. They are amazing and I love them soooo much.

Axel

My sister had another baby in September and this is him. He is such a cute little man. I can't wait to meet him and hold him. Even though Axel is 6 weeks younger than Laney they are about the same size. They are both chuncky and I love it.

Perfect Day!

I loved everything about this day the cake, the people that came to celebrate with us, the dancing, the flowers, everything. I am really grateful for my marriage to the coolest guy ever. We had so much fun that day and everyday since. I am so glad that I married Spencer. He rocks my world. I knew that he was wonderful and amazing right away when I met him but he just gets better and better everyday. He is exciting to me.


This dress was very luck. I had only a day to find the perfect dress and this one was exactly what I wanted. I love love love my wedding dress.


So I know this event happened over 3 years ago but I have been thinking alot about my life from this day on and how grateful I am for choosing to marry such an amazing guy. I feel really blessed in my life. Spencer is such a wonderful husband we have a blast hanging out together. He is an amazing father. Erik and Laney adore him. He works really hard for us and I am really glad that he is doing what he loves to do.
