My New Nephew Is Coming!!

The Pledge of Allegiance

Connor loves to say the Pledge of Allegiance. He has been able to say it for awhile, and I am finally getting it on video! Sometimes I am such a slacker. I really need to get all the cute little things he does on camera, because he grows so fast. I love this little boy so much!

Coast Trip

Connor and I were able to go on an awesome coast trip with my parents and little sister Hailey. We had so much fun. The last time Connor was at the beach was when he was only 2 months old...so for him, this was the first time that he can remember. He loved it!! I was so glad we could take a break from all the stress and relax together! Here are some pictures of our adventure.

Trust Must Be Earned

My dad used to always say the quote; "To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved." I have really found that to be true in recent happenings. I think most of us trust people so quickly because we believe people deserve trust, but I have learned otherwise. It is hard for me to come to this realization. I want to trust people and give them the benifit of the doubt, but not everyone is trustworthy and honest. I found that to be true with a man I know who is a member of the church (another state...no one who reads this blog knows him) and was a former employer. I trusted him to be honest with me because of our shared religion. I assumed that meant he would do what was right...but I was wrong. I guess I am just venting...again, because I have been caught off guard. I never wanted to have to make people earn my trust, but I guess that is how it will be from now on. Happy happy Joy Joy.

Happy 4th Anniversary Lindsay!

I just wanted to write a post to let Lindsay know how much I love her and appreciate all that she does for me and our family. Thank you for being a good motivation in my life and doing things to show that you care. Connor is lucky to have you as his mom and Colby will be too. I can't believe that it has been 4 years already. I guess time flies when you are having fun. Maybe one of these days the house will be done and I can stop making so many messes to have to clean up. Some days I think what it would be like to still be single and get to do anything I want to. I see that there is a time and place in life for that, but I am glad that I have someone to share life's experiences with. It would be pretty boring without you around. I love you so much! Happy Anniversary!
