So I sit here tonight and reflect on my last few weeks out here in Louisiana and realize HOW truly blessed me and my family are... I wonder at times if I have said Thank You enough to Heavenly Father for blessing us with SO many wonderful things in our lives.... My husband and children are amazing and they bring numerous smiles throughout each day. The quick text I get from my husband during the day reminding me how much he loves me.... Or when my older kids send me a text saying Thank You form helping me Mom... Or when my daughter says the funniest thing and we can't stop laughing for days... Or when my younger boys burst through the front door calling out to me wanting me to hear about their day at school... Or when my two year old just looks at me and smiles...


This post is just my quick note to say how Thankful I am for the blessings Heavenly Father gives each and every one of us... I get up each morning with a smile on my face and I know I am where I am supposed to be... Without His gracious counsel I wonder where I would be... I am SO Thankful for my wonderful parents who raised me in the gospel... I have a testimony that continues to grow daily as I read the scriptures and ask Him to help me understand things... I am SO Thankful we have a Temple SO close by where I can go and ponder... 


I am SO Thankful for all of the many wonderful people I am surrounded by... My friends have been such a blessing to me... Thank you ladies for being AWESOME!!! :)

So... This is my FIRST blog post... EVER... First and foremost, I want to thank my Heavenly Father for the MANY wonderful things he has fulfilled my life with. I have an AWESOME husband, Juan, and 6 yes I said 6 BEAUTIFUL children. Each of our children has their own unique personality and style :) I will eventually show fun pictures of each child and explain some of their traits :)


I am new to all of this so don't laugh at me too much... I find it very hard to write about my family and the things we do so don't be too surprised if this isn't updated quickly... ;)


I have been surrounded by some very wonderful people in my life. I have THE best girlfriends any girl could ask for!! They listen to things my husband thinks I'm crazy about.... Like having more children... And what I think about during the day... Which is rainbows and butterflies... HAHAHA!!! 


Juan and I married almost 10 years ago in July!! We are thinking about renewing our vows when July hits!! Who knows what kind of crazy party we will have... I will have to post fun pictures of the parties we've had out here so far... They usually end in a HUGE cake fight... Lots of frosting EVERYWHERE... 


I have decided that I am going to do separate blog posts  for each place Juan and I have traveled with our family. Living this lifestyle has been full of SO many blessings... I am so GRATEFUL for the things Juans' company, Dome Technology has provided for us!! Many things have happened for our family and many doors have been opened to us...




I will try to update all of our past things so you can see where we have all been...
