So i had this extreme first blog envisioned... Our life story, from the beginning...our families stories...100's of pictures.... and practically anything else you could think of, then i realised. i have a 4 month old & there ain't no way all that's happening. So I'll sum it all up in the little down time i have :)
I moved to Idaho from the great state of Louisiana when i was 17. I had EVERY intention of hating it & moving home within the first 48 hrs... Needless to say, that was not the case. So here goes:
When i turned 19 i started dating this incredibly genuine, attractive, Idaho farmboy.
He turned my world around. He was different. He was my best friend. The one i vented to about my problems, the one that learned everything there was to know about me, the good & the bad, & still loved me through it. The beginning was tough, not the typical scene from a movie where things just fall into place & everything is perfect. We had to work at it & hard. We are 2 different people, from 2 VERY different cultures, & 2 VERY different upbringings, but all in all, were just 2 country folks with the same goals, interests, & unconditional love. But after those best 2 [life-changing] years of dating came to a close, we started a new beginning.
7-30-10 Mr. & Mrs. Smith. Sealed for time & all eternity
in the Idaho Falls LDS Temple.
That was the BEST day of my life! That was until....... 5/21/11 When our son Rydin joined our little family! Ya, we didn't waste ANY time :) When you're ready, you're ready.
The day that pregnancy test said(+) i fell so much more in love with Quinn. SERIOUSLY. You think you know the extent of love at marriage, but then you have a baby & realise that it just gets stronger together. I love seeing my husband in him every time i look at him. There's nothing better than knowing that the Lord trusted us to teach him, & be his examples. And let me tell ya.. He is the happiest, most relaxed baby EVER. & i may be just a little biased.. but dang he is one goodlookin little guy (: These last couple of years have been AMAZING if i do say so myself!
