I know

I know I am the worst about updates on my blog but hopefully I will get a little better in the next couple of months. If I don't update my blog perhaps I will have Braeden do it for me since Travis walked in on him doing this today...


I may have to help him a little bit with spelling but if I don't I am sure you will be able to figure out what he is trying to say. Well that is all for me for now. Be on the lookout for a few Easter pics and school pics soon. I can't promise how soon though.

It's Snowing

We finally got some snow this month! Our first snow arrived about two weeks ago and left about two inches for Braeden to play in.
Braeden was soooo excited about the snow falling. He has been asking to build a snowman almost every day since last winter. Luckily the snow we got was awesome snowman snow. Braeden and Travis had a great time playing in the snow building snowmen and throwing snowballs at each other. Here they are hard at work.
Now for the finished product...
Shortly after Little Snowman was finished the boys had a snowball fight. This is by far my favorite picture of the fight.
Once we got back over to the other house the boys built yet another little snowman.
It didn't take long for the snow to melt from the first "winter storm." This time we finally got a decent amount of snow. Doesn't it look like Braeden is super excited about the snow?
Travis went out and cleared some of the sidewalk to show just how much snow we got.
Since we didn't have anything else to do Travis thought it would be fun to take Braeden out sledding for the first time.
I opted to stay at the bottom of the hill for a little bit and take pictures while Travis and Braeden had a ball sledding together down Wright Bros. Hill.
Here is a picture of Travis chillin' before hiking back to the top of the hill.
Braeden took a little rest on the stump in the middle of the field.
Travis finally snatched the camera away from me and forced me up the hill to sled a little bit. While Braeden and I hiked to the top of the hill Travis snapped this picture that I LOVE.
Once I made it to the top of the hill I did have a good time sledding with Braeden. Can you tell he is on the sled with me?
My little man decided after going down with both Travis and myself that he was ready to go down all by himself. Travis took him about halfway up the hill and sent him on his way. Braeden was not the least bit scared as you can see from this picture.
Here he is once he got to the bottom of the hill.
"I wanna do it again!"
After about an hour and a half of sledding we were all pretty tired and ready to go. We all had an excellent time playing in the snow however I won't be too sad once all the snow is gone.

It Happened!!!!


That's right the day we have all been waiting for...Travis popped the question! I know it is terribly exciting and I totally wasn't expecting it to happen right now. I was thinking that he was going to get me a bag for the Nikon but boy was I wrong. The wonderful kind of wrong. :) Last night when we were getting presents together under the tree Travis ran upstairs to get things for my stocking. When he came back down I was sitting on the couch chilling and he told me to come and check out the ornament he just got. I walked over to the tree and this is what I saw...

I was totally surprised! He then got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Of course I said yes to him. Here are some pictures of the ring for all those of my family who are dying to see it but are too far away for me to visit. I am sooo excited to now be moving into a new chapter of our relationship with an absolutely wonderful man.

Jingle Bells



Braeden was supposed to have a Christmas concert last night with his daycare however he contracted conjunctivitis. Since we weren't able to get any cute video of a bunch of kids singing Jingle Bells we had to settle for Braeden singing in the living room. I hope you enjoy his little ditty.
