This week has been a hard week! My cousin Billy died on July 9th. These past few days as our family has gathered I look around and thank the lord that we have family to love and hold on to during this hard time. Life is so short and we often forget to tell the ones we love that we love them. I think about growing up and how much we loved to get together with the cousins running around being kids. I loved those days and I know Billy did as well.

Billy, I know you are in a better place, free from pain. I love you and will always remember you.

As Annie posted on her facebook page

“Love is stronger than death even though it can't stop death from happening, but no matter how hard death tries it can't separate people from love. It can't take away our memories either. In the end, life is stronger than death.” -Unknown

Olivia Michelle was finally born April 12, 2010. I say finally because it felt like I had been waiting for her for so long. What an amazing experience it was to be there the day you were born. My love for you is so strong, probably because we share the same name :0

I LOVE YOU OMR

Were Back!

Ben and I have officially moved back to Utah. Washington was a wonderful place to live, but Utah is where our hearts have always been. I am so grateful Ben works for a company that cares about our quality of life and happiness. We are now looking for a house and hope to be settled soon.
