Family Stone















I am thankful I married someone who loves to do little projects with me. Last Christmas we received a stone to decorate. I have been keeping it for a project to do when we got our first home :) We are now finally settled and decided to do this as a project as a family. It came out really cute!! We can't wait to put it in our front yard!

Christmas Cards!!!

I love this time of year! The colors, smells, music, cozyness, and CHRISTMAS CARDS! Last year we sent out Christmas cards and I sent them out early so they would be delivered by Dec 1st or 2nd. All of my mother in law's friends were so proud that I had remembered to send them out as well as send them out on time. So now, I have big shoes to fill to ensure they get sent on time!


I found this cool deal from my cousin-in-law, Jenn Clegg about receiving 50 free Christmas cards! SCORE! I was happy about the free part but even more elated after I found out the company! Shutterfly has awesome gift ideas which are perfect for the holiday season. I have made photobooks, cards, calenders, and different items you can use to decorate your home using Shutterfly. Shutterfly always have amazing quality items at affordable prices.


Being a stay at home mom, I always make sure to shop sales and bargains and Shutterfly always have things at good prices for a young family like us! They also offer free shipping over $30 and with affordable prices you will get a lot of bang for your buck!

We LOVE LOVE LOVE our house :)

I am taking a little break from studying to update on our family! Well, we did it!! We bought our first house! We are very excited and just love it. It hasn't hit us how this beautiful house is ours. It has been so nice for Ty to have a backyard it is definately worth it to see his smile on his face. I am so proud of my husband for working as much overtime and allowing me to be a money nazi. Tyler and I both had this goal of buying a house and we sacrificed extra trips and fancy items to achieve it. :)


We also will be getting sealed next week as a family. We are so excited because we are so excited to have a eternal family! Tyler and I have been working on our relationship to always ensure we are speaking to each other in a respectful manner, putting each other first, and making lots of love ;-) haha


Anyways, back to studying :)
