Baptism Pics!

Here are just a few pics of Libbie in her Baptism dress...

Libbie's Special Day!

Well today was Libbie Sue's special day! My little girl got baptized! It was such a great day for her and it turned out really nice and a big thanks to everyone who helped and came to show your support and love. She was baptized and confirmed by Trent and it was so neat to watch him be able to share that with our first little girl. I know it sounds really cliche' but I swear it seams so recent that we were this scared little young couple in Georgia welcoming her into our lives and now she's getting so big and grown up on us. We love you so much Libbie Sue or as we call her "Beaner" and we're so proud of you for getting yourself ready and being so excited to be a member of the church. All she wanted this year for her birthday was her own set of scriptures with her name on them. What a big girl thing to ask for and what a sweet little spirit she has about her. I hope you'll always remember this day and how many people love you and want you to be happy in your life. We love you with every bit of our hearts and souls and we're so thankful that you came into our lives. Love, forever, Mom & Dad xoxo.

Blah, Blah, Blog!

Okay, it has been such a very long, busy time since I updated this blog last so here goes a novel, with pics to come soon!
First of all, HaPpY bIrThDaY CORBIN! Yep, our little man dude turned 6 on April 18th! He is so awesome and such a blast to have as our son! He so makes life more interesting and logical!! He is very set in his ways and everything he does has to make sense but not to normal people, just in his little 6 yr-old brain! We love you Buddo-Rooskie!
Easter was also a blast! We had my favorite, a marathon of family egg hunts and parties for the weekend with mixtures of good and bad weather. I love that my girls love their not-so-frilly Easter dresses since mommy doesn't do frills, & I love that Corbin loves to dress like a little GQ & doesn't mind as long as he can change when he's done! So anyways, Happy (late) Easter everyone!
And last, but certainly not least, Trent and I celebrated our 10th (yes 10th) anniversary on May 1st! How did we spend it you ask??? He was in Atlanta & I spent the weekend with the kids at my mom & dad's house! Oh ya, we sooooo know how to live it up! We did go to Park City the weekend before so a big thanks to G-ma & G-pa Miles for keeping the kids for us for the weekend! It's kind of funny how you build something like a 10th anniversary up in your head thinking you should do some huge thing, but I think if there's anything that the last 10 years and the last year especially have taught us it's that the real big deal is that we've lasted 10 years and we've definitely had our ups and downs, but the fact that we're still together & have 3 awesome kids to show for it is way better than anything else I could ask for. So to sum it all up now that I'm rambling on, Happy 10th anniversary Honey! I love you so much & can't wait for the next 10 & the 10 after that clear through eternity!
I will post some cool pics from this spring when I get a minute to catch my breath, so be patient!! :)

Congratulations Shawn & Melissa!!!

Wow, so I know I haven't blogged in such a long time, but I have very exciting news! Trent's youngesst brother Shawn just got engaged!! He just got home from his mission in Taiwan on March 3rd and as is the tradition for all these Miles boys, he found his one and only and why wait when ya know it's right!! The engagement is official now and we couldn't be happier for the two of them. What a cute couple and we're so excited to have another girl around here! We love you Shawn & Melissa! (or as they will forever be jokingly known by Trent & I... S&M!!)

WooHoo Wendover!

We had the funnest night last night! Trent called me yesterday from work and told me he had gotten his parents to watch our kids and that he had tickets for us to go see Frank Caliendo in Wendover. For those of you who don't know who he is, he has that show on TBS 'Frank TV' and he does the Fox Sunday NFL Pregame show. He does all the cool celebrity impersonations and he is hilarious! So we went to dinner and drove out there for the show and we had such a great time. Just thought I'd brag on Trent a bit, so thanks for the fun night honey! Love ya! :)

My Resolutions.....

So for a while now I've been thinking about the "New Year" and all the stupid resolutions that people make (and brake) and I really wanted to try and come up with something that I could and would stick with. I thought about putting an actual number to my ever-lasting weight loss goals, but I don't want to set myself up to fail or set the bar too low, so that's no good. I thought of saying that I wouldn't miss one week of church all year, but let's be realistic, I'm probably gonna skip a few, so that one's shot. So what I finally came up with is probably the simplest, common little goal, but it's one that I can't say that I always follow, and that is my very favorite quote from President Hinckley: "Try a little harder to be a little better." I know that sounds way corny coming from me because I'm not serious alot of the time, but I am really going to try and take this to heart this year and see where it takes me! Anyways, Happy New Year! (just a tad late with that, but who cares!!)

It's Time...

Okay, I've been thinking about taking this thing private for a while now, and my sister Tracie just told me a freaky story about who could potentially be checking out these things, so that pushed me over the edge. I will leave it public for about a week or so, so let me know if you'd like to stay on my reading list and I'll be sure to add you! Thanks, and safe & happy blogging!! :)
