Pictures and Memories

Image
By
I was going through pictures on my external hard drive and found so many from over the past few years that made me smile/laugh/cry! It was so fun to go through the pictures and see how much my family has changed and grown over the last few years. I love pictures and the memories that come flooding back as you look through them

I sometimes am given a hard time that I take too many pictures but its days like today that I'm grateful I do so I can go back and look through them all!  :) 

Here are some favorites that I found...

Holding my niece Ava for the first time back in 2010. I remember being so excited because I was sick when she was first born and so I had to wait a few days before I could hold her. 

Summer of 2009 before Kevin left on his mission. I visited him and his family in California for Spring Break and we spent a few days in San Diego. 

First semester at BYU-Idaho, best friend Kallie and I won the best couple costume at our ward party! :) ....for obvious reasons!

After Kevin's mission sometime...I just love how tiny little Jacob is!

Kevin and Whitney sometime in 2012 I think...

Waiting with all my favorite girls for the David Archuleta concert. Kallie and I sat in line for practically the whole day!

Around Fall of 2011 I think..at the Easter Idaho State Fair. Pretty sure Jacob only wanted to sit on my lap so he could drink my lemonade...haha.

The day my sister got her bachelors degree from BYU-Idaho. Love that girl!

My mom and all my sisters came with Kevin and I while we took our engagements so naturally we had to take a girl picture before we left. :) Love all these amazing women in my life!

All three of these cute kiddos turn 5 this year! How have I been an Aunt that long!? They are growing up WAY too fast!!

Summer of 2012 while we were living in Missouri. We went to movies all the time. It was such a fun summer as newlyweds! :)

Also while we were living in Missouri. We took a trip to Nauvoo for a long weekend and had to take a picture standing by the Mississippi River!

2010....2011...maybe...pretty sure it was sometime one of those years...anyways. Love this girl.

Love this crazy brother of mine!

and last but certainly not least....
Oh how dull my life would be without this lovely lady! Love you Chels!

I have been blessed with the best family and friends and some pretty fantastic experiences. I'm excited to have babies someday and be able to show them all these pictures of how crazy and blessed their mother is/was. 

Have a fabulous weekend!


Until next time...

Holly :)

Third Time's the Charm..Maybe...

By
Last week as I sat down to go through some emails I remembered this old blog and got sucked into reading through past posts. I smiled, cried and laughed as I read through my memories over the last 4 years. :) It was crazy to read through and think about how much has changed over the years and how much Kevin and I have experienced together in the 6 years we've been married. My last post was from March of last year after a visit to Iowa. I could kick myself for not keeping up with this blog because last year was packed full of some of the greatest and hardest experiences of my life. Highlights from over the past 18 months: -We had a graduation party in Idaho for Kevin April 2017 and he officially graduated the following July! It felt so good for him to finally be done. He worked SO HARD and overcame some major obstacles and set backs.  -After Kevin walked in April we did a big trip to Utah and Iowa with Shawnii after watching her graduate with her Masters in Communication Disor...

Mid-Week Happenings/Ramblings

By
This week has gone by sooo slow. I woke up this morning thinking it was Thursday. Rude. Anyways...Here's some random happenings/ramblings from the past week or so... Kevin is anti anything Christmas before Thanksgiving...I'm the complete opposite. We've compromised. I can listen to Christmas music but cant hang any decorations (my pinecone and snowflake garlands don't count) until the Monday before Thanksgiving. I can live with those stipulations.  We made a goal with our friend G to not eat out at all this week (we may or may not have an addiction to midnight runs to McDonalds). We've survived so far.  Last night we finally watched the movie, "The Fault in Our Stars". Holy hannah. Ugly face cry the whole time people. It was so sad but so worth it, minus the random f-bomb.  I attempted to make homemade french fries for dinner this week...oh deary...Lets just say I wont be using that particular recipe again...or attempting to make fries again a...

Sum of September

By
My goodness its already October! September was a fabulous, crazy, busy, wonderful month. First up a visit to Idaho... A ll my siblings surprised my parents the second weekend of Sept as an early birthday present for my mom's 60th birthday! We were missing Kevin and Arianna's husband and kids but the rest of us were able to go. My parents were so shocked and my mom cried and cried she was so happy to see us all. It was the best present we've ever given her. :)  It was a laid back weekend just spending time together. We went to a Gentri concert Saturday night,  church Sunday, my mom loves having people to sit with so we made sure to visit on a weekend so we could all sit with her, Danny and Melissa's family left Sunday after dinner, Monday we had a little day of shopping and relaxing at home, and then Tuesday Shawnii, Arianna and I all headed home.  GETTING TO DRIVE LARRY HOME FROM CHURCH!!!  The day after I got back from Idaho I st...
