Recent pictures of Brock, Finally!

Sorry it has been so long since we have posted anything, life gets busy and this is the last thing that I think about. So here are some pictures of Brock. We think he is one of the cutest kids in the world. We are a little bias though.

A little change never hurt

So it's official, we have started another business. We had an opportunity come our way and after lots of prayer and pondering we decided to leave Jones and start all over again. Scary? Yes! We are throwing all we got at this project so hopefully it works out. We teamed up with some neighbors that we have befriended and have jumped in with both feet. You can check out the company if you like www.unitedconsumerservices.com Actually we are not starting from ground zero because we acquired the guts of an existing company out of Vegas. Guts, meaning the insides, all the info we need without the clients. We were not sure if the clients would stay after the acquisition so we chose not to risk more money for a potential disaster. We are very excited, we signed up our first two clients this week which was our goal. Next week we are going for 3 and then 4 until we get to 8 a week. We are also looking for people who would like to open up their own sales office or offer our services themselves from home or an office. We will handle the clients after the sell, all they would have to do is sign the clients up. Oh yeah, I guess I should tell you what the business is. DEBT SETTLEMENT basically we will be negotiating lump sum payments for people who have fallen behind on their credit cards or any unsecured credit line.
We are going to grow this to be the premier debt settlement company in the industry and could use everyones help.
That's our update! Brock is still the cutest kid in the world. Amber, well she is pretty cute herself and as for me....well we all know that story. :)

It has been way to long since I last posted anything and now I don't know where to start. I guess I will start at Thanksgiving.

We spent Thanksgiving in Las Vegas this year with Brad's parents and sister Lori. We had a great time, we went to a show (Mystique by Circue de Solie), we went out to eat alot (which we love doing while we are there), and I finally learned and caught on to the game that Brad and his Parents love to play. Everytime we go there they love to play this game called Acquire and I have never been able to grasp the concept of the game, but this time the light went on and I think I finally have figured it out. I still haven't won yet but at least when I play I don't get so upset that I refuse to play the game again for the rest of the trip. Brad is very proud of me. YAY! We had a great time spending time with his family, we don't get to see them nearly enough.

December was a crazy month. I started back at work full time, which is a bummer but I am very lucky to have such a great job. It was really hard leaving Brock the first week back, but it has gotten easier. We are so lucky to have my Mom watch Brock once a week and then we have a Great babysitter the other 3 days. Tara (babysitter) is in our ward and she is so great with Brock and we feel completely comfortable leaving him with her. Unfortunatly we are probably going to be loosing her the end of February, they will probably be moving and we are going to miss her horribly.

We had a great Christmas. We spent it with my family here in Colorado. It was so fun getting everything decorated for Brock's first Christmas. And he is so cheap to buy for right now because he doesn't care how many gifts he gets. We bought him a cute little outfit and that was it and that was enough. Both Brad's parents and my parents spoiled him enough and he ended up getting more presents then the both of us combined.

Brock ended up catching a cold a couple days before Christmas. I think it was hardest on me because I felt so bad for him, and of course since he is my first I overreacted to the cold and took him to the Hospital one night because my doctor wasn't on call. His cold ended up turning into a double ear infection. I wanted to so bad to be able to take the illness away from him and me be sick instead. unfortunatly that isn't possible and he is better now and hopefully I will do better next time and not overreact.

For New Years we went out with my brother Josh and his wife Ashley. We went to an 80's party that a couple in our ward was having. We had a blast. The best part was getting dressed up. I may have gone overboard on my costume,(I didn't match very well) but I don't care it was fun. It was good to spend time with Josh and Ashley we don't get to see them enough.



All in all it has been a busy but fun last couple of months. We are so thankful to have our families and friends in our lives.

We are so happy to see gas prices falling. We filled up this weekend for under $2 for the first time in forever. I was so excited I had to take a picture. Lets hope they keep falling.

Brock's blessing weekend

We blessed Brock the weekend of Halloween. I know I'm a little behind in my blogging :( We had such a great weekend. We spent Halloween with the Watt family and had such a great time getting all the grandkids together. The next night we went to White Fence Farm with the Fausett family and had so much fun there. We love that place, there is so much to do there for kids, if you haven't been there before we highly recommend it.
Sunday we blessed Brock. We are so happy to have him in our family, and it was such a sweet experience to hear the blessing Brad gave to him. We are so thankful to our Heavenly Father for sending us Brock. And we are so thankful for the knowledge the we have of Eternal Families. I can't imaging going through this lifetime without that knowledge.
We want to thank everyone who came to the blessing and traveled so far to spend this weekend with us. We love you all.
Enjoy the pic of the weekend.

Halloween Fun

We really enjoyed having a baby to dress up for Halloween this year, it sure does make the holiday more enjoyable for us. Brock was so cute in his Dragon costume. We spent the day with family. The day pretty much involved just a lot of picture taking with his cousins Kaitlyn and London, but it was still fun.
