Really?

Well... tomorrow marks the first day of the new school year! I am just not ready to be back at work and away from my sweet baby boy. I sure do love that little rascal. I am so thankful for Mark and that he is able to be home with Beck the majority of the time. He is such an amazing dad and I feel so lucky to be his wife! '

I am also very grateful for the cutest friend Sherrie who is going to watch Beck for us some mornings when Mark is at school. Although, it is so hard to be away from him, I know we are being blessed and I am so thankful for that. The Lord truly is aware of us and loves us!

Four Years of Wedded Bliss!

Happy Anniversary to us! It has been four amazing years... and I am so excited for eternity! We decided we needed a break from life and it was AWESOME! We spent two nights in Salt Lake City at the Anniversary Inn and enjoyed every second of it! This is what we woke up to every morning...
Breakfast in Bed :)

Four years ago today we were married in this beautiful place!

We took a tour of the Conference Center and it was so neat! Here we are on the roof!




Couldn't resist a yummy salad and famous Lion House Roll... What a wonderful getaway! I am so thankful for this amazing man! Mark - thank you for making me the happiest girl on the planet! I love you more than words can say!

Down on the Farm

I am so grateful that I was raised on a farm. I learned so much about life, common sense, hard work, and other things that I won't mention. I love sharing this part of me with Beckam and watching his excitement in seeing the animals. I love that Mark is supportive of my farm girl-ness and has said that maybe we will have a few animals of our own someday :)
Hangin out in the pig shed...

He loved the pigs... and is pretty good and making the snorting sound
This picture is priceless... I love this man. He is such an example to me! I feel so grateful that Beck gets to have such a special relationship with his grandpa... he sure LOVES him!

Lazy Daze of Summer!

He figured out how cool the hose is and LOVES it!


On the run... he keeps us on our toes. He is always on the go!




This is a perfect illustration of what has filled our summer afternoons. While Mark has been busy doing homework for his 17 credits of summer school. (Yuck! He is my hero :) Beck has been playing in the kiddie pool, while I keep an eye on him and on my new favorite book - "The Hunger Games." I love it... can't get enough of it!

Our Budding Book Worm!

Oh how I love this sight! Beck has decided he LOVES reading as of late and it makes me so happy to walk in the other room and see him reading his books. I hope he will continue this love of reading his whole life. What a champ :)
I love his classic eyes closed, "what are you doing Mom," shot... he is the cutest!
