This is home.

Home is where your story begins, and I believe our story has truly started here. We have come to a point in our relationship, in our lives as a couple and as a family, when I think we have all realized this is home. I have come leaps and bounds from where I was just a year ago, and it's so rewarding. I have people I can call my friend, I have places to go, things to do, and it's liberating. I see friendships growing not only for myself, but for my children, and for that, I am proud.

Home is where the heart is, and each night, I rest my heart here. I can go to sleep each night knowing I have done all I can to provide the best I can for my family, to make them as happy, healthy, and safe as a mother can. We have come a long way as a couple, starting out in a tiny apartment we could barely afford, to now owning our own home and having 2 beautiful children who love us unconditionally. I believe we have not just grown as individuals, but as a whole.

There's no place like home. Try as I might, I will never forget the smells of the fresh leaves, the taste of the lake breeze, or the sounds of children giggling while the are picking apples and sneaking a big bite, but these are only memories. Michigan, you will be missed.

Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Laila's Birthday Party!

Laila's birthday party was a total success! We had so many friends to celebrate with, plenty of food and cake, and lovely gifts! I couldn't have asked for a better turnout, and I want to thank everyone! Laila loves all of her presents, there isn't one she hasn't played with yet!

Moving here and making new friends has been a struggle for me, therefor, friends are absent for my children. I feel so great now knowing I have friends I can count on, and Laila feels like she has true "best friends" she can play with, celebrate with, and grow with.




Thank you everyone who came along! We really enjoyed ourselves, and hope you all did too!

All our love!
