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!

Swim lessons

We enrolled Ellie in her second summer of swim lessons however given her reluctance to be away from me we had to forgo Kay's All-Swim in favor of a the Jewish Community Center (JCC) because they would let me still get in the water with her. I was somewhat disappointed with the lessons however Ellie had a blast in the water and seemed to enjoy her teacher (Sarah).
Patiently awaiting our class to begin:

Another day of lounging by the pool before lessons:

Our big girl getting ready to head in the water!


I, unfortunately, did not get any action shots since I was swimming with her....Hopefully next year she is willing to continue on with some private lessons so she can become a stronger swimmer!! She has the love for the water down-pat and now we need some real swimming to happen!!
