Thanks Kim for tagging me. It has been fun to look back and reflect on what we've done, where we've been and what we want to do. Eric and I have had our ups and downs and we are very greatful for every experience we have had.
20 years ago
I was about to turn 12 years old and living in the Mesquite area. That's all I can offer.
10 years ago
I was serving a mission for my church at this time 10years ago. I had been in Guatemala for only a few months by now just loving everything that surrounded me. I loved the people, the culture, the language, the food(we won't discuss this one-I gained a lot of weight) and most importantly sharing my testimony of my Savior and the Book of Mormon.
5 years ago
I have been married for a little over two years to my best friend, Eric. We bought our first home in Mckinney. We bought our Chrysler Towne&Country (we still have it-paid off and runs great). We also started our family with the birth of Mackenna.
3 years ago
We sold our home and moved to Rexburg Idaho so that Eric could finish his degree in Accounting. It took exactly a year to do. YIPEE!
1 year ago
We were living in Plano in a two bedroom/two bathroom apartment. We just welcomed our third baby into our family, Pierson Joseph.
So far this year
We moved from our little apartment in Plano to our new home in Mckinney. We've sent our oldest baby off to public schools and our second baby to preschool. I'm able to volunteer at Kenna's school. I'm working with the youth again in my ward.
Yesterday
Eric's parents were able to come out to visit. While the girls went to a friends birthday party Eric and I went to the cheesecake factory for appetizers with Pierce. Then we had another couple over to play a card game. Stayed up way too late again.
Today
Went to church. Had an extra meeting. Spent a very casual day with my husband and kids. Spoke with one of my best friends from high school by phone.
Tomorrow
Sending my husband off to his first day at his new job. He's no longer in public accounting-NO MORE TRAVELING!!!!! He starts with a company here in McKinney-NO MORE LONG COMMUTES-LESS GAS!!! I might take the kids to a play group. I really need to go shopping for some clothes but I hate shopping for myself.
In the next month
Trade off with another Mom so I can volunteer in Kenna's classroom. Hopefully help my best friend pack up her apartment and move to McKinney(you're in my prayers Aubrianne). Celebrate my Charly's fourth birthday. We can't forget about Halloween!!
In the next year...
Continue to work toward our goals.
In the next 5-10 years...
I really would like a pool in our backyard. To have been on our first trip away from the kids(for our 10yr anniv.-that's actually in three years).

This is so great! Thanks for responding. You two have had quite the adventures so far. I forgot about some of them. Congrats to Eric on his new job and good luck. Way to go mom for raising 3 amazing kids and making motherhood look appealing ;) I'm so excited your family loves swimming. I RSVP for your first pool party and the youth are lucky to have you again. I still have great girls camp memories with you. Oh back in the day! What fun times...
