Daniel and I met and started dating in July of 2005. After a good year, we were married Aug 5, 2006. We lived in the Love Shack Trailer in Egin, ID. Though a bit far from town, we enjoyed ourselves and gained great friendships. In April 2008, we moved a few miles to Hibbard, near Rexburg. In September Baby Addyson entered our family; truly blessing our lives, hearts, and home.

Tennessee Trip

Daniel, Addy, and I took a week off and flew to Nashville. With the economy going the way it is, we have been worried about the construction life; so we thought maybe we could become country singers in Nashville instead. Okay, not really. We went to visit my brother, Blake's family. Addyson did very well on the plane. I think she was she was going through a growth spurt, because she slept most of the whole trip that week. Here she is on her first plane ride. We all look especially well at 5:30 AM!



Addyson was delighted to meet Blake...


Loved being held by Aunt Chantelle...


And absolutely loved playing with cousins Maya and Desire'e.

We had a wonderful week of hanging out and seeing the Nashville sites. Here are some photos from the trip.

Venturing around the Grand Ole Opry Hotel


The Jack Daniels Distillery




Addyson even picked out her future first car!


We also went to a Joseph Smith Commemoration concert put on by the Nashville Tribute Band (of Dan Truman from Diamond Rio, a song writer, Jason Deere; Due West comprised of Matt Lopez, Brad Hull, and Tim Gates) Dan and Brad are both in Blake's ward. So after the concert we all went to cold stones for a treat...but Due West actually gave the cold stone workers a treat by singing some songs for them and then sticking it the event on their website.

We were sad to say goodbye. We love you guys and appreciate everything! Until next time...
