Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. It's 2017!


We spent Christmas in Colorado with the Bucks and Phillips! 



















Christmas Eve dinner at The Broadmoor 



Dylan, Lexie, and Tate joined us for New Years. 











It was pretty tough not going home for Christmas but we had a great time with family and friends.  2016 will always hold some wonderful, challenging, and surprising memories. We are looking forward to the new year and what God has in-store for us in 2017. 

For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders. And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 
Isaiah 9:6

Let The Summer Begin (almost)

We decided we needed to get out of the valley for a few days {with summer quickly approaching and tempts reaching the 90's}, so we packed up and went to Payson for the weekend. I highly recommend going to see the Natural Bridge, pictures do not do it justice.  And I'm pretty dang impressed with Andy for hiking all day with this baby pack. It is seriously not as easy as it looks. I've got to start training...  Raja clearly had the time of her life. {per usual} We are so excited that little man is big enough to ride in the baby pack! And I'm excited Andy is able to haul the baby pack.  Raja is just excited about dirt and water {mud}.  Happy Monday, everyone. Thanks for reading :) 

Arizona Baby Shower, Easter and Family

Hello everyone! I hope y'all had a wonderful Easter weekend. Our Easter was pretty busy but it was so special in so many ways. First of all my sweet Arizona mother, Catherine (who has taken me in as her own), hosted a baby shower for Baby Buck. He was shown great love from friends we've made out here in the desert. I cannot wait for him to meet all the loving people awaiting his arrival (only 15 more weeks to wait, by the way!). On that note he has some pretty amazing family that are anxiously awaiting to meet him, as well- my mother, Andy's mother, my grandparents (Mammy and Grandaddy) and my cousin all made the long journey out for the shower and for Easter. We are so thankful they were able to come!  We all had so much fun at the shower!  The nursery theme is woodland creatures.  Catherine and Gary We played some pretty entertaining games, which I will spare you the pictures from. Also, we al...

Christmas Out West

"And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life."  1 John 5:11-12  We thoroughly enjoyed each other over Christmas time.  Raja enjoyed opening her and almost everyone else's presents.  The desert heat will burn her paws in the summer so...  boots for Christmas. She's thrilled.  Shrimp and grits for Christmas dinner.  Raja sporting a buff...  {I hate the humans and their things-Raja}  One of the best ways for me to experience the presence of God is through His creation.  "You are beautiful beyond description  Too marvelous for words Too wonderful of comprehension  Like nothing ever seen or heard Who can grasp your infinite wisdom Who can fathom the depth of your love You are beautiful beyond description Majesty enthroned above I sta...
