The True Meaning of Christmas

Willow Tree Nativity

My Mom & Dad gave us half this set for Christmas this year and then Steve went out and got the rest of the set. I LOVE IT! I can't stop going over and looking at it. I felt the Spirit so strongly as we were setting this up. This nativity set truly shows us the true meaning of Christmas. May we always remember this event!

Most Creative 26th Birthday!!

I thought to write a post about my Birthday...it was quite creative of Steve :)

So I woke up in the morning to find the computer opened and it said "Play me." I pushed Play and he had done a movie of what was going to take place in the day's events (he was @ work)

As he was narrating the video their were pictures that went along with it.

So the video began by telling me that I would find my breakfast in the fridge....in the fridge were cinnamon rolls and then when to drop Peyton off at a neighbors house to be babysat while I go to Red Mountain (where I work) to get a massage...

Redmountain Resort & Spa

Desert Dream Massage

Sweet Deal...since I work there I got 45% off!

The video proceeded to say after I come home from my massage a mystery guest would be showing up at the door...and that it wasn't going to be Ryan Reynolds, Matthew McConaghey or Bradley Cooper :(

and then Flowers were delivered! :)

Then the video said Steve would be getting home @ 2:45 and we'd go eat @ the Pizza Factory (my Fav)

So after Dinner we went to the mall and I bought some jewlery. Then we went home to watch a chick flick and had ice cream cake! (Fav) And had a Pumpkin Spice Frap @ Starbucks (first time...and Yes, Jen...amazing!!)

Awesome Birthday! So creative of Steve! Loved it!!

And here's the video Steve had made, so you can actually watch it for yourself :) lol

Thanks for reading!

A Loss

So I really wasn't planning on telling anyone this. I don't want anyone to think I'm doing this for attention....I debated about it...And thought blogging is such an easy way to express my feelings....I've been too down about it and need girl support....

I had a miscarriage....:(

But I'm not too depressed about it....I barely had found out last Tuesday I was pregnant...and that I was 4 weeks along...and then 3 days later...began bleeding alot....and a lot...and a lot.... went into the doctors...

And waited a couple of days, took a pregnancy test..and it's a negative....

But it could be worse-- I could have experienced having a miscarriage furthur along...and could have found out after announcing it to everyone... it could have sucked way way more....

But at least I know my IUD hormones are FINALLY away from my body and I should be getting pregnant way quick now...hopefully...

Interesting how Peyton came with little effort at all...and know I actually feel like I have to try.....

Hopefully my upcoming Birthday week will be better...

Thanks,
