A Summary Update On Us

So a lot has changed in our family since my last post. I am sorry for not keeping everyone up to date as well as I should have. We don’t have internet right now, unless we put our laptop in a certain spot near an upstairs window to get a signal from someone else.

We live in Mount Vernon, Washington. We got our own house to rent on April 1st, 2009. Braxton is almost 8, Aspyn turned 2 on June 14th, and Nick and I are expecting a little boy November 16th. Nick is working at Ross as their Loss Prevention guy while he goes to college full-time. He has 15 credits this summer (8 week) semester. He is way overwhelmed, but doing well for how much he has going on. He was planning on attending the Parks and Law Enforcement Academy at the college starting in December, but now due to new circumstances he is not certain what he is going to do. We’ll keep you posted. Braxton is currently in St. George for summer with his dad and that is not going so well. Last week Mariah (his dad) was awarded full custody of Braxton until further notice. At this time, I am at a loss to do what I need in order to get him back due to $$$. I need to get to St. George and get an attorney. All of which cost money that we don’t have right now. For those of my family and friends that are prayers… please keep us in your prayers.

On a more positive note, Nick and I are loving church. We both have callings now and I love mine. It has helped me over the past week to focus on something else other than Braxton. Nick is the Secretary for Elders Quorum and I am the Secretary for Young Women’s. Our ward is fantastic and there’re a lot of really great people in it. The young women are great, and really fun to have the opportunity to work with.

Sorry for no pictures. I am currently in the process of uploading them to my computer, so I will get to that soon.
