New Years Weekend

We celebrated New Years this year with our dear friends the Papa-Dakis family, Blanchard Family and the Sorden Family. You might ask yourself why there aren't any pictures of Tyler and I.... Well my poor husband had a migraine and went to the ER New Years Eve... Needles to say he had a cocktail of his own.

Better Late then Never

TPC SAWGRASS

In November Tyler and I were fortunate enough to get away together. And why would we choose any other place than TPC Sawgrass. Tyler and I are both Avid golfers. I have often been asked if he was the reason I golfed.... PLEASE I know this may surprise some of you but I DO have a mind of my own and have been golfing before Tyler and I got back together.

This was such an incredible vacation... We golfed, ate, slept (much needed with a 5 month old baby) and were able to enjoy each other. Tyler is my biggest fan in golf ( and really anything) and he's not afraid to show it. He is also my persoanl coach (which for some couples does not work) but for us it does. We played the stadium course twice and the Valley course once. This was a once in a lifetime vacation and one we will never forget.

Going Private

Family and Friends I have chosen to make our blog private.. Please leave your email and i will add it to my list so you are able to view.

Love you all!

My Family

We had family pictures... Here is a sneak peek...

Jennifer Fauset of Fauset photography is absolutly amazing... She is so incredibly talented, fun, patient and out going. This is the second time we have had Jen take our family picures and WE LOVE THEM! Those who know me, know how picky i am when it comes to photography and she exceeds every expectation!

Jen Thank you so much again for the beautiful pictures! We love them all!

Angels among us...

So i thought i couldn't feel any more gratitude for all that i am blessed with. That was until the Festival of trees.... I have never been but our good friends Mindy and Travis participate in this charitable event every year. Mindy donates her time, money and creativeness to decorate and dedicate her tree to someone she loves every year. You might think that it wouldn't be to difficult to decorate and donate a tree... Well that is where you are wrong.... Countless of hours go into preparing a tree for this event. Lights have to be wired to the tree, ornaments glued, and that is only the beginning. Mindy does all of this while juggling the scheduled of their 5 beautiful children. Last year Mindy and Travis dedicated their Silent Night themed tree to Landon's twin brother that was lost during her pregnancy.

Trav and Mindy you both are amazing, thank you for everything you bring into our lives.

Most trees are dedicated to survivors or a deceased loved one and their stories are posted next to the tree. I was drawn (of course) to all of the trees with pictures of small children. I couldn't imaging watching my baby suffer or be incubated with tubes coming from everywhere.. There was a survival story of twin boys who at birth weighed 15 oz. and no larger than a dollar bill. Unfortunately there were more dedicated to ones that have passed on than survivors.

All of the monies raised are donated to Primary Children's. For the past few years my sister and brother in law (Angie and Carson) have bid and purchased many trees. They have spent countless nights at the bedside of their children at Primary for one reason or another. We are so blessed to have them all Healthy!!

I have never cried for the loss and heartache for so many other people in that short period of time than i did last night... Needless to say when we got home i took Nixon out of his crib and snuggled him like crazy.. kissed him till he couldn't stand it any more... I am so grateful to be surrounded by so many loving and giving people.

I am so thankful for the health of my loved ones and friends..

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

My amazing family..

This is my beautiful cousin Madelyn who is 3 months older than i am... Needless to say i haven't missed any meals.

On the way home from bowling Nixon is catching up on some zzzz's

Sweetest Loves for my Momma

Meet my g g (great grandma) yes that's right she doesn't look a day over 25 :)

I have never been so grateful in my life than i am today. I want to start by thanking my Father in Heaven for Tyler. We have both said we would go through everything a million times over if it meant we would end up together. Tyler you are the most incredible husband, Father and best friend. I am ever so grateful for ALL of the time you spend not only with me but with Nixon. I love the way you light up when you get home from work not only to see me but to watch your son light up as well when he sees you. I am so very grateful for our beautiful son Nixon and the blessing he has been in our lives. I am so very grateful for our families and the relationships we have with all of you. I am so grateful for the many friends we are so blessed to have and all that you bring into our lives. i am so grateful my family is healthy. I am grateful for the amazing life Tyler provides for our family especially at a time that is so uncertain for so many. I could go on and on but i will save you the agony...

We spent Thanksgiving morning with my family bowling.. this has been a long time family tradition. we came home for an afternoon nap and headed over to my moms for dinner...

I hope you enjoy the photos.

NACHO LIBRE

I have never been to a wrestling match before but i wouldn't have missed it for the world. Brendan and Jayden were in a tournament in Mapleton so Nixon and I decided to go and support Team Blanchard. Check out these SUPER STARS

We LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PEYTON AND MASON

We know in the beginning it was a long road for you both and we are so thankful to our Heavenly Father for making you both so healthy and strong. You are loved by so many and thank you so very much for being best buddies with Nixon! We are sad we aren't able to be with you tonight but know we are thinking of you!!

We love you!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

We were so luck to have Papa Ken, JJ, Allie, Jace, and Chris in town for Halloween....

One of Many

Ok so i clearly couldn't decide on a costume for Nixon...

Meet my girlfriend Mia

Mia and Nixon had a sleepover a week before Halloween and here are a few photo's.

Who's a Packers Fan???

My cousins are AVID did i mention AVID PACKERS Fans!!! They gave this outfit to me so here's to you PEARSONS!! We love you

My little boy

I never thought i could be so in love with anyone other than Tyler...

Thanksgiving has come early

So here i am a new mom and so excited for Halloween... I was out shopping one day and found the cutest costume... Tyler was not as excited about it! He is so concerned that Nixon will be beat up by the other four month old babies... but last i checked he is in the 95 percentile.

Kisses for Jace

I'm not sure that Jace was kissed enought while he was here...... He is the sweetest little guy, it makes my heart so very sad that they live so far away.

Fam Time

When Allie and Jace were in town we headed up the canyon for a cook out...

Little Tee and his Daddy

GETTING SO BIG

Going to the Zoo with my Cousins

We decided to all go to the zoo before the cousins went back to school....

Pool Day

Pool Time

Last month we were so lucky to have Allie and Jace in town from Houston!! JJ was not able to make it out because of work, but we are so excited to see him in November. I have a slide show of Nixon's first day at the pool with his Nana Chris, Aunt B, Uncle Andrew, Aunt Allie and cousins Jace and Bel. There got to be a time when Jace was so tired that he decided to relax on the cement(definitely my kind of relaxing ; ) ) Allie was able to get plenty of snuggle time in with Nixon!! that is until Jace wanted mommy and was not wanting to share her.
