Three years ago today...

Three years ago today, I made the best decision a girl could make. I said "YES!" Adam proposed in Nicaragua and it was such an amazing experience. My parents were already in Nicaragua for the holidays at the same time, Adam and I had a 3 day trip planned to Park City, Utah to see Julie...so I thought. With the help of our parents, Jenna, Kelly Karen, Jocelyn, and my principal, Adam planned a week long vacation to Nicaragua. When we got to LAX, with our bags filled with snow gear, he handed me our plane tickets with the destination to Managua, Nicaragua! I was overwhelmed with emotions and completely surprised.

When we got there, my parents set us up for 4 days at an all inclusive resort in Montelimar. It was absolutely beautiful! On the third night there Adam wanted to go on a little hike, and took me to the most beautiful cliff over the ocean where he proposed. Adam spent so much time, hard work and thought towards this special day! Thank you babe!

My parents' property in Ticuantepe. It's a beautiful house on a huge lot. We picked pineapples from their backyard.

7 Months

Addi is seven months and boy has she grown so much! In the last month, Addi has learned so many new things. At six months Addi began to...

- sit up and throw her body forward onto all fours, then followed by the rocking back and forth, side to side. So cute.

- wave "bye, bye" with her palm facing her.

-eat more veggies and fruits twice a day.

-allow people to hold her without freaking out. There were a couple weeks where she would not let anyone hold her. Glad that was just a little phase.

-and play with her toys. It's adorable watching her play with dolls and her play phone.

A Christmas to Remember

Every Christmas we spend Christmas Eve with my side of the family and Christmas day with Adam's family. It works out perfect for us. This year we decided to spend Christmas with Julie and Brandon up in Springville, Utah. Julie is 35 weeks pregnant and looks amazing! We had a good time playing games every night and enjoying each others' company. It was such a memorable trip!

Addi's first Christmas with family was so much fun. She had a blast pulling out tissue paper and tearing up wrapping paper. Grammie & Grampie and Abuelito & Abuelita spoiled our little girl. We had so much joy watching her play with her presents and entertain our family.
