Happy 8th Anniversary and Lydia's 5 Month Mark

Today was a fun day to celebrate in our family. Lydia reached the 5 month mark and Jason and I celebrated our 8th Anniversary. Since our marriage 8 years ago, we've been through a lot: we both graduated from college--Jason with his Bachelors and Julie with a Master's degree, Jason has worked at 7 different jobs, Julie worked at 3 jobs before Ethan and Lydia, we've lived in 5 places between Utah and Kentucky, and had many times of both heartache and joy. We're very grateful to be members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Keeping the covenants we have made with God brings us both the needed peace, hope, and joy to live in this crazy world. Our story isn't exactly as I'd planned but I'm grateful to be part of it and look forward to the next chapters as they come.

These two beautiful children are our greatest treasure! With much faith, sacrifice, and patience in the Lord's timing, we have been so incredibly blessed to have them in our family. They bring us true joy!
