who...

i'm a simple girl, really..... sorta.  i live in an old two-story white cottage with black shutters with my dreamy husband Justin, two precious kiddos Asa and Bellamy, one large lovable buffoon of a lab named Blue, and our siamese cat Lady.  Justin and I got married Saturday May 21, 2005 in a small town, in a big church, at the top of a grassy hill.  definitely one of the best decisions i've ever made... that, and deciding to make babies with him.

marriage is no cake walk, but you truly do live and learn and what better way than with your best friend!

in our first 4 years of marriage, we experienced the heartache of losing 3 babies.  two within the first 8 weeks and one, a girl, at 20 weeks to a birth defect known as Turner's Syndrome.  with each loss, i recovered in different ways, but always with the encouragement and promise of my awesome Heavenly Father.  i knew i was to be a mother and i am.
 now, i'm loving on two healthy babies with hopes of a few more.  

i'll never take this role for granted.  such sweet blessings these babes are.

this is me, savorin' every last second!
