Thankful Thanksgiving - Day 6

Sunday 11/6/11

DAY 6

I'm so Thankful to be in the Nursery with Braxton! I was called to the Nursery when Braxton was 15 months old but they told me I could bring him with me. Since then we have had 2 hours every Sunday together to play and learn and sing. It has been so fun to watch him learn to interact with friends, follow directions, clean up, sing fun songs and eat snacks! He is growing up so big and seeing him in nursery every week and comparing him to what he was like when we first started going blows me away! My baby is getting so big.

I Love my calling but there are some Sundays when I forget how grateful I really am to be in there. Yes, some Sundays are harder than others. I've wondered how Braxton would do if I ever got released and he had to be in there "alone." Well, today Brax was sick so he stayed home with dad and I had to go to Nursery all by myself. It was so sad! The whole time I was thinking about him and what he would be doing at each moment. I kept thinking myself "get all the time you want with that ball while Braxton isn't here!" Yes, Brax is a major ball hog, even in nursery! Having one Sunday without him in there made me truly grateful that I get to be in there with him! Love you buddy~

Our Love Story....

Nate and I met back in 2004 when I asked him to my shcool's Halloween Dance and I guess I impressed him a little more than I thought I would. We went through a lot during our dating years but we were somehow always able to get through everything and knew we always would. Nate Proposed to me on November 17, 2007 at the Roof Restraunt and I was shocked. Definately not expecting it that night. We were sealed for time and all eternity almost 4 months later on March 13, 2008. We couldn't have picked a better day. We were one of only 8 other couples there that day so we had a lot of time and I got treated like a princess! Everone was so nice! It rained quite a bit during our pictures and reception and it was pretty cold outside but I was told that rain on your wedding day is good luck! That was the best day of our lives up to this point!

I realized just after our first anniversary that people weren't kidding when they said the first year is the hardest! It definitley wasn't easy but we learned so much about each other and ourselves that it was also a great year! We got our first house in October 2008 and Nate surprised me with our first little one, Chloee a golden lab, on Christmas Day 2008. We had a lot happen our first year of marriage and knew that the years to come would bring more happenings.

We just celebrated our second anniversary. Who would have thought that our second year of marriage would have brought what it did! We were blessed with our first child, a healthy beautiful baby boy, on February 26, 2010. The day he was born was the second best day of our lives! He has already brought so much joy to our lives in the little time that we have had him.
