Our little Sunshine




What can we say about this little girl we have. She can be such a good baby one minute and a COMPLETE HOLY TERROR the next. She has been pulling herself up to just about anything that is stationary. She loves mac and cheese, tearing up her sisters tower (made of mega blocks), the dolphin swing, her binki, her daddy and well...just about everything else.

What a sight!







We had heard that Show Low lake was running over the spillway. Well, I couldn't think of a time I had ever seen this. So, we ventured on back there and this is what we found. The water was not only running over the spillway but it was GUSHING. It was a spectacular sight to see all this moisture. Heavenly Father definetly blessed the mountain with rain and snow this winter. How grateful I was to see such a sight as this.

The Latest




The bruising was all the way to my ankle. Can't wait to see what it looks like when my cast comes off. I bet its pretty hairy!!! YUCK! Taking my razor with me for that appt.

I wore this brace for the first week after surgery. Then I got my lovely cast put on which I will post pics later of.

February 11th I went under the knife to have knee surgery. I had prepared myself for this (so I thought) but nothing would ever prepare me for what I have gone through the past few weeks. I have had problems with my left knee cap now for a couple of years. Finally, I got it fixed. I now am the rightful owner of 2 screws in the bone located right below my knee. I am also the owner of a shiny purple walking cast for 6 weeks. (However, I am almost close to the half way mark) Its been a trial for sure. But thankfully, I once again have an amazing husband who has picked up the pieces for our family. I have had casts before. Numerous casts actually. But none of them have ever been this difficult to deal with. I think having to chase 2 girls is the difference! I am now on the uphill to recovery. Start physical therapy within the next couple of weeks and will continue with therapy probably until the middle of the summer. I have a big thank you to everyone. Your calls, your texts, your drinks, your friendship and my mom and dad letting me and girls crash at their house for a few days have truly meant alot to me. I couldn't have gotten this far with out you all. Hope you enjoy these lovely pics!!!

Elder Ammon Branson Finch




Nic's little brother has left for his mission. Sorry I am late getting this updated but I wanted everyone to know how proud Nic and I are to have two little brothers serving missions. Elder Finch is serving in the Guayquil Ecuador Mission speaking spanish. He reported to the MTC on January 27th and is set to leave there on March 29th. He is doing fabulous. Loving the missionary life and we know he is going to make an incredible missionary.














This was Mom, Dad and Elder Finch backing out of our driveway the day they headed to Utah.

Give Me That

Brooklee decided to play a little game with her sister. She would take Brins binki out of her mouth and stick it in hers. Turns out Brinley can hold her own because she would LEAP forward and grab it out of her sisters mouth and place it right back where it belonged. Brinley loves her binki. (I know bad habit to break and we will cross that road when we get to it!)

Private No More!!

Sorry everyone that I went private in a blink of an eye. I have mixed emotions about going back to letting anyone view. However, I have a feeling to go back the way it was originally. Sorry for any inconviences this might have caused but now we are back and ready to hit the blogging world running.
