Love ya Gracie Lou!

This week I am going to brag about my adorable niece and how thankful I am for her!
She is thought about often but these last couple of weeks especially because she just turned one! I can't even believe how fast time flies and much she has grown up. It's hard not being closer to family but I think it makes it so much harder when there are little one involved. Ya know what I mean?
These are just a few of my favorite pics of the little princess...





How can you not love that face? And can you believe those beautiful blue eyes?
We love you so much Grace and we are so grateful that you are apart of our family. It's hard to imagine what our family was like without you!
Happy Birthday baby girl!

I am thankful for...

FALL!
I love having 4 seasons and living in Utah for most of my life I have had the opportunity to enjoy all four seasons...but Las Vegas is a bit different.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about the weather (I think the high today was 83 degrees...perfect) but I miss a good ole Utah fall.
This picture is one from last year that my family sent to me and I love it! I miss the leaves changing color, cool crisp mornings, being able to have a garden and the fresh veggies that come with it, the noise of the Pumkinaze across the street...I could go on and on!
I guess absence really does make the heart grow fonder!
