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!

The Cheetahs!

Ellie's first soccer game of her career was today and we were, of course, running late!
The mouth guard we purchased for her did not end up working out and we had to buy another one here which added another stressor on top of it all. 

After finally pulling it together we met her coaches - Coach Mo and Coach Travis.
She got her soccer jersey (#9)
She met her teammates and they decided on a name
The Cheetahs



Wee were concerned that she would not end up going out on the field because she has had some issues with separating from us. We thought soccer might be a good option because she could see us there and she was with a bunch of other kids just running around. 

It was an absolute winner. She LOVED it!
She went out there on her own without hesitation or any tears. 

Way to go Ellie-bo!
