One Blessed Year seen through Pictures!!

Here are some memorable pictures from each month this past year! I can't even begin to thank our Lord for this past year. I continue to fall harder for the love of my life each day. I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband. We have so much fun together... we are silly together, we laugh together, we cry together we live each day the Lord has given to us to the fullest!! I LOVE being a wife and I LOVE being a Mommy! Waking up in my best friends arms is the best part of the morning, and I love nothing more than going into Gracelyn's room and seeing the most beautiful face smiling back at me!! So many things bring joy to my heart each and every day. I know the Lord has the PERFECT plan in store for our family and I can't wait to see what new and exciting blessings in disguise he gives us!!


Starting now and working our way back through the year!!

Snow!

All bundled up in PINK of course ;)




Gracelyn has been LOVING the snow up here in Utah!! We took some family photos IN FRONT of it, and only minutes later decided we wanted to be IN it!! Gigi wasn't too sure about sitting in it, but she really enjoyed tasting it :) Daddy wrote her name in the snow and then laid down on the driveway and made a beautiful snow angel!!

Here are some cute pictures of our little snow bunny!!!

Getting a little cold... couldn't get up :(





Her hat was in her eyes... she didn't like that very much!
