Thanks Elyse!!



Well I will have to thank Elyse for getting me to set this blog up! It is a great way to keep in touch with our family that is so far away!

Well, I don't even know where to begin lol. Jeff and I have been married now on July 30th for 3 years and together for 5! Feels like so much longer. In the last 3 years we have had a handsome little boy named Mason, who is such a sweet heart. He is such a blessing to Jeff and I. He looks identical to Jeff but I think is leaning more towards my personality, thank goodness! Jk He is now 3 1/2 and is in Pre-School two days a week and is really loving it! He is growing up so fast I can hardly believe he is going to be 4. Jeff got a job with PG&E and has been there for a little over a year, he is really enjoying it. I remember one his first days at work when they were training him, he came home and pulled up all of these awful pictures showing what hap pends to people when they get electrocuted. Well, needless to say I wanted him to look for a new job that night!! But, with a lot of jobs there poses risks I guess. We built our first house in July of 2006! We love our house but are looking forward to moving when and if the market ever turns around. We, are just on too busy of a road for the kids. Witch brings me to Feb 1st 2008! The day we had our precious little princess MaKenna! She is such a great baby, we have had such great luck with our kids. Mason is in love with is sister as she is with him. She just lights up when he comes running in the room. She is growing so fast, I am really trying to enjoy her just in case she is my last one :(. She has picked up the nick name Mackee Bear! From Papa. She seems to really love it. Mason is constantly reminding papa that, that is not her name her name is Baby sister or akenna!!lol He can't say her name right quite yet! She is rolling all around, laughing and blowing raspberries (that's her newest thing). It makes me sad that our family is spread throughout the U.S. I wish that I could watch my brothers and sisters children grow up and be a part of there lives, just as I wish that they could be a part of our children's. But we make the best of our situation and see each other when we can. My mother in law and sister in law were able to be here with Jeff, Mason and I for the welcoming of Ms. MaKenna and what a blessing it was to have them here. My mother in law is such an amazing women. We are so thankful that she was here to share in the joy (I know Jeff was ecstatic). We love her very much and can't tell her enough what she means to us. Well that is all for now! I will blog again soon. We are anxiously await the safe arrival of Dad who is still in Kawait and also the arrival of Mom and Mariss on Friday!
