Blissfully Beddy

Well.. seems I've taken a little bit of a blogging break.. only about a 10-month one! I want to get back to doing it regularly so we have this fun record of our life adventures. So our little A was born almost 10 months ago, hence the 10 month break. Obviously our life has changed drastically. The first few months were just crazy; it was hard, the adjustment of having a new baby is huge! With that being said, we adore our little girl, and she brings so much joy and laughter into our lives. I honestly can't believe she'll be 10 months old in 2 days. That is the most rewarding thing- looking at this little person and realizing that we did this; we have helped her grow and develop and be healthy and happy up to this point. It makes it all worth it. It seems like the time has flown by, but at the same time it feels like forever ago when we were waiting for her to arrive. It's kind of hard to imagine our lives before her. Anyway, the past 10 months have been so busy and crazy and fun. We are so grateful and blessed with our lives.

Another reason I wanted to start writing again is that we have some big changes coming up in our lives! We are about to be through with our time in Rexburg! C actually graduated last December, and I am on my last of 3 semester of taking online classes since A was born. I'm almost done!! Only a couple more weeks, and I'll have my Bachelor's! Honestly that's one of the things I'm most proud of, because it hasn't been easy since being a mom. Anyway, so this is our last semester in Rexburg! We have honestly loved it here. BYU-Idaho is an amazing place to be. It's a great atmosphere, not to mention the greatest thing that we gained here- each other! C and I met, dated and got married while we were going to school here. Also A joined us here! So Rexburg, ID will always have a special place in our hearts because of those reasons. With that being said, we are so excited for the next chapter in our lives! C has been accepted to graduate school at the University of Illinois, and we will be moving there this summer! We are so excited; we flew out for a weekend a couple months ago and found a nice apt, and we are ready to go! We are moving out of our current apt in 2 weeks- so soon! Then we are doing vacation with C's family in Utah for a couple weeks, then we are making the drive to Illinois! After we get there we will go spend a week with my family in PA before C's school starts.

We couldn't be happier and more grateful for the many blessings in our life right now! We are grateful for the time we've had here, and we are so excited and grateful for the next adventure! Here are just a few pics of our life!
