Happy Anniversary!!!

Ron and I were married 11 years ago...can't believe how fast time flies! We're glad we celebrated in Mexico last year and not this year :) We had a blast and have NO pictures to show. Our camera broke the day before we left and had to use a disposable camera. We didn't get ONE decent picture! I couldn't believe it. I just figured we'd have to go back and do it all again.
But really, we've accomplished a lot in 11 years- Graduation from BYU, a baby girl, a baby boy, 3 years of PT school in Omaha NE, 9 months of rotations in 3 different areas, moving 9 times, moving to Las Vegas which I hated the first 2 years, another baby boy, a billion roadtrips to Canada (some in complete silence due to my stubborness and anxiety of driving), moving into our first home, and another baby boy in 8 weeks...this will be the true test!
We have truly been blessed our entired married life...there's not one thing to complain about. I married the best husband in the whole world. He spoils me rotten and still treats me like his new bride. He will do anything and everything for me and always puts my needs before his. I don't know what I ever did to deserve him, but I know I would be lost without him. Here's to an infinity more happy years together!!!

My Baby Girl

Madelyn Rae was born 9 years ago! I was the proudest mother on earth the day she was born. I never in a million years knew that I could love someone soooo much. She was absolutely the easiest baby too. I remember thinking how easy motherhood was and didn't understand why other mom's complained. She really was THAT good. (then we had Brad and I understood)

We lived in Provo, UT when she was born. I worked at a little children's boutique called Mom & Me at the time, so we had LOTS of fun playing dress up :) Really, I used to put 3 outfits on her a day! It was so fun!

Fortunately for me, she really doesn't care about what she wears now. She still asks me every morning what I want her to wear. Let's hope that lasts through high school!

She has truly been a blessing in our lives. She loves her family and although wouldn't admit it, LOVES her brothers to death.

I realized the other day that she and I have to stick together and have lots of "girl time" with all these boys in the house. I took her to get her first pedicure last week (i thought she'd hate it) and she LOVED it!!! I got teary sitting there with her, both getting our toes painted, realizing how grown up she is. I don't think I'm ready! I love Maddie sooo much and I'm so glad that she is a part of this family.

BIRTHDAY PARTY IN CALIFORNIA

Thanks for helping Uncle Billy. How old are you?

Maddie loves Monopoly and totally beat us the first time we played! And she was the banker the whole time!
