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!

Thanksgiving....

This year for Thanksgiving Justin, Ellie and I headed out with Ellie May to Phoenix. We got Ellie tickets to see the Fresh Beat band and so we decided to make a trip out of it. We went to the Christmas light set up at the zoo and, of course, went to the outlet mall!

Ellie was super excited to see the Fresh Beat band however the show was at 7 pm and after a day with no nap she completely crashed. Once we arrived she was ready to leave and had NO interest in the show. Epic Fail?!?!

We stayed at a little resort in Phoenix and had our Thanksgiving feast there....I am sure that my mom thinks we are just the weirdest people in the world for choosing to spend our Thanksgiving this way however she went along with it!


Here we all are after having dinner at Dave & Busters!


No pictures of our feast or of the Fresh Beat (no cameras allowed)......I swear we were there though!

While at the outlet mall Ellie met with Santa. She asked from (1) candy and (2) Christmas cards!





It was a whirlwind trip but it was fun nonetheless....
Thanksgiving has passed and Christmas is in the air!!
