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!

MOMS club Easter Party

This year we hosted the Annual Easter Egg Hunt for our MOMs Club and had a ton of fun! Justin said, "oh you should volunteer to host this" so I did and then he was completely shocked at the large turn out we had! Ellie loved having everyone over and playing hostess for all of her MOMs club friends!

Looking for those eggs!

We were so glad to get to have all of our friends over for some fun! 
Until next year!!

Family Night at Krispy Kreme!

We heard that Krispy Kreme does a special event for families and we had to check it out! Unfortunately we were the only ones there and they were less than enthused to put on Family night just for us.....

However -- we had taken Ellie and so Justin made sure that she got the experience!


Donut that Ellie made







She had a blast and was none the wiser that things didn't pan out according to plan.

Don't mess with the girl or you will mess with dada......

Build-a-Flower-Bunny

We took Ellie to build - a - bear for the first time to make herself a stuffed animal. She had been previously to help make stuffed animals to donate to the Ronald McDonald House.  She had seen a little girl with a bunny that she just HAD to have and we found it here --- we we brought her in to get the bunny for an early Easter surprise.
