I am grateful for Mylie

Mylie is honestly one of the smartest children I've ever met!! She is officially my first born :) I remember the day she was born I balled the first time I held her!  I remember a few nights that I would either stay at Sharie's or Sharie would sleep over I remember asking if I could get up with her in the middle of the night and rock her back to sleep.  My external hard drive has crashed and it is about 300$ to fix so I don't have all my old pictures but I probably have hundreds!!

These are just a few of the pictures I've taken over that last few months

I am Grateful for Jesse's Safe Return

This has easily been the highlight of the summer. I have been waiting to see Jesse for the last 2 years and this weekend has been more then I ever thought it would be. To say I loved spending time with the family would be the world's largest understatement! I cannot wait to see everyone again. It was such an amazing time I will always ALWAYS remember!!
Jesse said some hilarious things as he was adjusting to the american way of life... I didn't want to write them all so I will just include my favorite:
Jesse: Guess how much that I-pod would cost?!
Me: How much??
Jesse: 700 GHANA CEDES!!
me: holy cow!! how does that convert to U.S. dollars??
Jesse: uhh... what'd I say?? Honestly my favorite part of this weekend was just hanging out with everyone.. talking, catching up, teasing, laughing, the works.. it was great :)Braden got Jason and Jesse to read him the same air plane magazine and he got Dad to do it twice lol His latest phase is turning on and off all the lights... the only trouble is he's only tall enough to turn them off... It takes him like 10 minutes to stretch and strain and reach until he can get it back on
Saturday was a day for swimming with the fam :) while everyone was in the pool I got the chance to go run some errands with Jess. It was fun just to hang out and listen to some Hip Life Tunes with him!
Looking back at this picture she's frickin prego at that moment... WWWWOOOOWWWW!!!!
Just hanging out with the grandbabies was seriously half the fun this weekend! it's so hilarious to watch their little personalities develop and watch how they interact with eachother!! Of all the grandkids I would have to argue that Mylie's reuniting with Jesse was the Cutest!! She would literally just hug him for minutes at a time!
poor Brynlee took a "face plant" before coming down so she had a few small scabs on her little nosey :(
Still so cute it should be illegal!!
The grand kids all loved having Uncle Jesse home :) Jesse especially won over the hearts of his three little nieces this weekend... Bryn would just love to sit close to him or on his lap for no reason! it was very adorable!
Jesse and Brooklynn Although the goodbyes were tough to say the least it was so great to have everyone home for the weekend. I seriously can NOT wait until christmas to see everyone again!!
Today I'm grateful for Jesse's Safe Return and for a family that is an absolute blast to hang out with!

I am Grateful for Davis

Davis and I have not always gotten along. I used to get way too easily offended by his jokes but now few people can make me laugh harder. Davis is simply a well rounded person, what ever he tries at he's amazing at. He is incredible at math; he can work that cad computer like nobodies business at work! He can throw down a beat sicker then DJ felli fel and it only takes him 30 seconds. He's a great husband and incredible with kids. I can't wait to see how great of a Dad he is... anyways the whole entire point of this post is for me to post there oh so beautiful pictures I got from when we were skyping... When I'm ever having a bad day this always make me laugh... A LOT
Today I'm Grateful for Davis because of his positive, uplifting inluence he is in my life and the great example he is to me!
