I decided that a family blog would be a good idea since we live so far away from family and close friends. I hope to keep all of you updated on what our family is doing since our move to Utah.

As most of you know, on August 25th 2006, Joel and I welcomed Lily to our family and life has been full of joy and sleepless nights ever since. She is an amazing little girl and makes us laugh daily. She's going on 10 months old, but thinks she's a grown up and is already trying to walk by herself. Her favorite thing is blowing raspberries during the middle of sacrament meeting. Maybe she'll grow into a more dainty demeanor eventually. As parents, we can only hope. We're having lots of fun and we look forward to sharing Lily's growth and our family's experiences with you.
