Happy Birthday - Mom & Judd!

This post is a month long over due, I have had the pictures uploaded for quite sometime, I just never got around to writing about it!
We spent a warm sunny afternoon up the canyon back in September, celebrating 2 special birthdays! It was a short and sweet getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and packing! Although we weren't quite complete...we missed you and your family Ging!
I just want to tell my mom and brother how much we all love and adore them. You both are amazing individuals! We all appreciate everything you do for us.




Jauncee and Lily!






Can I say, how much I miss the weather there!

My Little Rock Star!

Jauncee is my little music diva! She loves to sing and shake that little bum! It fascinates me to watch her…she definitely has all the moves. She can hear a song once and she knows most every word. Songs she shouldn’t even know, somehow she does! I love this little girl!

Ch-ch-changes!

Well summer has come and gone and fall is quickly approaching! I love the fall; it is by far my most favorite season. Along with the change of season come a lot of changes for me and my little family! Sometimes change isn’t something I look forward to, but this time around it is a “change” we all are going to embrace. There’s so much happening for me and it’s all such a wonderful whirlwind of positive energy! I can actually “feel” it, like a big rainstorm gathering in my soul after months of drought! As I have spent the past few weeks boxing up all of our belongings I have felt a chain of emotions some great, some reminiscent, some frustrating and some all together overwhelming! I can’t believe how much STUFF we have accumulated over the past 6 ½ years that we have lived in our little house. I didn’t even think we had that much room for odds and ends, but apparently we did! At the end of every day I know without a doubt that this is what we are suppose to be doing, it’s the perfect time for us to move on. Life has so much more to offer than what is here. And what is there…is a life long journey waiting! I’m not going to lie: I’m terrified. I’m scared out of my mind. I’ll be 7 hours away from my security blanket—a town whose streets I’ve memorized, but can’t go anywhere in. An almost work day away from friends, my family, and the place I have called home. At the same time I am ecstatic about all of the new opportunities the future holds, not just for me but for the 4 of us. With all the craziness of packing and planning it feels (to me!) like my TiLT is kind of low on details. It is not, however, low on love! In fact! I have been feeling the L-O-V-E even more than usual, it just keeps getting better and better, which is really quite wonderful & I have definitely done my share of wandering around with stars in my head! So for the past two weeks my accomplishments would be:
Progress, ‘cause it’s nice to feel like things are moving forward, innit?
...& synchronicity, because it’s doubly-nice to feel like things are working out exactly as they should. (They always are, but it’s fab to get a reminder. It’s like being tucked into bed by the universe.)
Maybe you couldn’t call them accomplishments but in my mind they are 2 huge feats!

……………………………………So with anticipation, eagerness and optimism I am head-over-heels for this change!
