Our Story...

We live in small town Franklin, Idaho and absolutely love it!! Tim and I have been married for 11 years and we have three crazy, busy boys; Nicholas (Nic) is 9, Tyler (Ty) is 6, and Joshua (Josh) is 4 and a precious little girl (Alexys) who just turned 1. Tim works for the U.S. Postal Service as a Supervisor. I am a State Licensed Daycare Provider and Preschool Teacher. I love my job (most of the time) and I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have to be home with my kids. I don't have time for scrapbooking and so this is as close as it gets to preserving my family's journey through life.


Family...Ours is Forever.

Meet Alexys Marie Denton

She's finally here!! Our precious little one came into this world on Monday, October 12th at 2:25 PM. After only 6 hours of labor her daddy and I were so excited to see that yes, there was a baby girl that would be part of our family. She weighed in at 6 lbs 6 oz and is 18 inches long. She has dark hair all over her little head that is about an inch long and she has the most beautiful olive skin and perfect little features. Needless to say, we are extremely proud parents and are so excited for the adventures that a little girl will bring.
The boys didn't get to go to the Hospital due to new restrictions because of all the illnesses that are happening right now so they got to see her for the first time on Tuesday. They were so excited to hold her....especially Nic who proudly told his dad the night before that he would die for Alexys....(sigh) Josh could hardly wait to hug her and kiss her and Ty was all smiles when he finally got to hold his new baby sister.
I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father that he has blessed Tim and I with 4 healthy, beautiful children. And for a wonderful husband that has been a such a great daddy. I am so blessed!! I have a wonderful family, great friends and a Ward family who I sometimes would wonder if they were more excited for the arrival of Alexys than we were. Thanks to everyone for your kindness, love and prayers. Here are the first pics that we have of our new addition.
