Gratitude Day 1

Today I am grateful that we met our goal!  
We set a goal to pay off the car and truck this year and today we did it!  Jake messaged me from China saying we had been paid and I jumped up and made that last big payment online.  We are so grateful for all the blessings this year has brought us financially.


So I've had this "debt free" picture in my head all year long of the house, the vehicles, and the trailer we bought to move here.  I finally get to take the picture and even though it's a terrible picture I took with my phone and the house still needs to be painted and Brody's truck is in the way it's exactly what I wanted.

We own all of that!


Moving to Texas has been such a blessing for us!
I do not know if this is where we will always be, but for this year, it has been just what we needed.
What a blessing for our family!


Now, I have no illusions of ever getting out of law school student loan debt, so no we aren't actually 100% debt free, but we are blessed!

20 Weeks

Today we had the opportunity to go in for our 20 week ultrasound. We are excited to announce that baby #3 is a healthy BOY! We are excited but have to admit we are a bit nervous. Change is hard and after two girls this is definitely a change. It will be a fun and wonderful experience. I have already thought about little boy ACUs and PT clothes (little army clothes) and what I will decorate the "boy" room in etc. I have always heard boys are "easier" but more rambunctious so I guess we will just have to see. I was excited that during the ultrasound our little boy was crossing his legs at the ankle like both his sisters do! So funny! We will keep y'all posted on names and other developments.

Halloween 2023

 We pulled off our best Halloween!  Possibly ever!  Jake had a vision and it came true beautifully.  He even had the cutest song he sang.  I loved our last Halloween in our Hurst home.  

sometimes life may get you down

but then you remember how wonderful you husband is and it makes it all ok. Jake surprised me by ordering these gorgeous handmade pearl earrings from TINY STORM for me for Christmas and they were waiting for us with all our mail when we arrived back home after vacation. He got down on one knee and presented me with these earrings and it brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful, hardworking, and loving husband who is always there to take care of me and love me when I am having a rough time. Thank you Jacob!
