First Crush!

This little cutie, (who always likes to be close up to the lense) has a crush on a girl, who also happens to have a crush on him. One day Riley ran up to me and said "I love Ava". I thought it was so adorable and couldn't get any cuter until Yesterday. Ava came over to play and in her hand was a gift for Riley. Stephanie, (Ava's mom) told me how she had to write down Ava's words correctly and recite them back to Ava for approval.  She did admit to leaving out the fifty million I love you's. I still need to catch a photo of these two little lovebirds together before they find out about cooties. I was told she painstakingly cut out each paper and decorated them just for Riley as well. I'm definitely putting this in his keepsake box!  Have fun clicking on the picture and reading what she said.

7 Years!

It's our 7 year anniversary! All I can say is the Honeymoon phase came and went with Our First child, but we still have love. Our thoughts about being all knowing parents left when we had our second child, but we love them both unceasingly. The little pet peeves we have for each other tend to get on our nerves, but with each day we learn to tolerate and accept them. Marriage is certainly no picnic, but so incredibly worth the challenges, struggles, and hardships. In the happy moments I am reminded of why I chose to be with Brandon. He is my best friend, my secret holder and sweetest guy I have ever known. It's his kind heart that I love the most about him. I'm happy he is mine and glad that I can have him for all Eternity. There is always joy in the Journey and here is to many more years we get to conquer with each other. So enough of my cheese! Happy Anniversary Bo!
