About Me

Welcome to our blog!! This is a blog about our life, mostly from Jennifer's perspective. We were married in July 2007 at the Wynn Resort in Las Vegas and then sealed together for eternity in the Albuquerque New Mexico Temple in June 2009. We welcomed Ms. Ellie Sophia into our lives on February 9, 2010 and she is absolutely the light of our lives. Then we added Silas Ian on January 4, 2013 and his smile just brightens our days. We live in Rio Rancho, New Mexico where Justin works as a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and I pursue my PhD in Nursing while being a stay at home mom! Life is so chaotic but we really couldn't ask for a more perfect life!

5 years and still blessed

This year marks mine and Justin's 5 year wedding anniversary and our 10th year of being "together" - and it seems like time has flown by!

We have been truly blessed in all aspects of our life and are so happy that we have walked side by side through this journey together. We have finished school together, experienced jobs together, built a family together, built a home together -- built a life together. We have worked incredibly hard to create a life for our little family that we could only dream of --- together.

I seriously could not ask for a better partner in life than Justin - we complement one another's strengths and weakeness rather well! I am so proud of the man, husband and father that he is and how he has always pushed himself to be the best he can be.


These lyrics (Mindy Gledhill - Anchor) are a perfect way to express how I feel:

When all the world is spinning around
Like a red balloon way up in the clouds
And my feet will not stay on the ground
You anchor me back down

I am nearly world renowned
As a restless soul who always skips town
But I look for you to come around
And anchor me back down

There are those who think that I am strange
They would box me up and tell me to change
But you hold me close and softly say
That you wouldnt have me any other way

When people pin me as a clown
You behave as though I am wearing a crown
When I am lost I feel so very found
When you anchor me back down

When all the world is spinning around
Like a red balloon way up in the clouds
And my feet will not stay on the ground
You anchor me back down




Here's to eternity with you.....
