Gina and Chris


Honestly I can't find a picture of just me and Chris, How sad!! so this lovely picture of two trees will do for now. Our love for one another grows everyday, and can you believe after knowing each other for 14 years we are still learning a lot about each other. We are so different but so much a like. He completes me in so many ways and grounds my overactive worry machine, and I try to build him up and give him the support he needs. We work really well together and enjoying spending time doing things, like working on our house and yard. We enjoy where we live and the ward we are a part of. Chris is 11yr. old scout leader, the perfect calling for him he loves camping. I am 1st counselor in the Primary, it is a growing learning spiritual experience for me but I love it. Chris works for FMI formally know as PD. He loves most of his job, but the atmosphere is not the best. I am a stay at home mom and his job allows me to do so. I love being here with my kids and having a home and family to take care of. Sometimes its not easy and I complain, something I work at everyday, but the rewards are so grand and the joy I feel when I experience something magical with one of my kids is something I wouldn't change. We are blessed and thriving as a family and thankful for every moment on this earth together to grow, learn, laugh and love.



Emily Joyce 8 yrs old


Emily just turned eight and was Baptised, it was so special. I can't believe my Angel from Heaven is already this old. She is shy and timid, but willing to do anything at least once. she is in our ward choir and loves to sing and she does it so well. She is my biggest sport freak, she absolutely loves soccer and is very good at it. She just started softball this summer, she got some good hits. She is also involved in all the community plays, she has been a turtle, raggedy Ann, a ladybug, and something else I can't remember(that's my memory)... It has helped her come out of her little shell and blossom beautifully. She loves frogs iicckkk, and most animals. She wants to be a veterinarian, or anything to do with science, when she grows up. She loves to read and exceeds in her school work. She is in 3rd grade and has the nicest teacher. She also loves to cook, and is very good. She makes the best pancakes. She is my little helper and does so much for me. We enjoy her goofy personality and every new moment with her and can't wait to see what the future holds for her.



Katelyn Marie 6 yrs old


Katelyn is our spitfire little girl. We call her Nana Jr. (for those who know my mother). She has a live out loud personality and fights for what she wants. She is very opinionated. She and her dad have come-back contests and she usually wins. she is witty and smart. Katelyn is also a sweetheart of a girl, She loves everyone and is willing to compromise to make everyone happy. She wants to do everything and tries real hard, we have to set limits for her... She loves sports, soccer and Coach-pitch. She was a toy rabbit and a Turtle in our community plays. She is in 1st grade and loves her teacher and her friends. She brings a special spirit to our home and we enjoy every adventure that she adds to our lives.



Hunter James Almost 5yrs old


Hunter is 100% boy. He loves John Deere everything. Dad can never find his tools because hunter scatters them everywhere. He has the best imagination and is always creating (or destroying) to find new things to invent or figure out... He is very active and outgoing, but he can still be a mama's boy and cuddle, which I love. He plays scoccer and T-ball. He has been a Sheep and a Duck in 2 community plays. He is not too shy like my girls and we love every minute with this little man. He keeps us going, and says the most beautiful prayers that bring tears to my eyes almost everytime...



Olivia Ann 2yrs. old


Olivia is our little Pricess!! She loves pink, her puppy lily, her princess bed, Actually anything PRINCESS, and her big brother and sisters. She says absolutley everything, she amazes me everyday. She loves to go to nursery and she sings like you wouldn't beleive, her favorite song is I am a Child of God. She brings us all so much joy and we can't imagine life without her.
