unstoppable

This song unstoppable is almost like a soundtrack to my life. I made some wrong turns in life, but with the love from my heavenly father I turned it around and now have such an amazing life. I'm so grateful to have such a wonderful husband and daughter. My love for them and my Heavenly Father is unstoppable.

Here are some pictures of my greatest blessing in life. Makayla is growing up so fast and she is learning so much. I love her!

Jamaica!

okay so get ready for a serious amount of pictures! We had such an amazing time in Jamaica! It was way too short of a trip, but we were sure happy to come home and see Makayla. We stayed in an all inclusive resort, so we got EVERYTHING and anything we wanted whenever we wanted it. No wallet, it was so great. We had a virgin strawberry daiquiri, pina colada, and the BEST fruit punch in the world at all times.


Here's us at the swim up bar with our awesome drinks! Life could not be better!


eating at the Italian restaurant, and the best part, no wallet no tip. All tips and taxes were included in our trip. =)


When we first arrived to the airport there were these cool guys playing Jamaican music. It really got our vacation on the roll






they upgraded our room to a beach front ocean view. It was pretty nice waking up to the crystal clear ocean




This is the view from our balcony

I actually got Robert to dance with me!

We'd race down the waterslides, but I'd always get stuck. I think I was too light for the water to pull me as fast as Robert. It was funny!




There was a minature golf course so we played a little.
I could get used to this sunset everyday! I'm so sad we're not at the beach anymore

We hung out on this cute bungalow watching the sunset almost every night it was perfect

mommy dearest....

Dearest Mom,

I am so glad that I chose you to be my mother before coming to earth. Being my mom was not an easy job especially in my teenage years and I look up to you so much for having the patience you had to raise 5 kids. Thank you for not giving up on me when all hope was lost . You've been my rock since having Makayla. I'm so glad I have a mom to call anytime I have questions about how to soothe my cranky baby. Thank you for letting me cry to you when I was in desperate need of assurance that I was doing all I could do to be a good mom myself. I will never forget the time I was in walmart sobbing because my newborn would not sleep, eat or stop crying and you came out a few days later just because you knew I needed you here. I love you so much, words just cant express it.
I am so happy to have 2 wonderful parents who have been together for many many years. I couldn't imagine what life would be like if my parents were divorced and am so grateful to have you both stay strong through all the trials and tribulations that came throughout the years

Makayla has such an amazing grandma. She loves you so much, she has always felt so comfortable when you were holding her. I'm so excited to have you come watch her while we go on our trip so you and her can build a stronger relationship. I love you so much mom! Thank you for everything you do for me and my family. Your seriously amazing and it may sound cliche, but I really couldn't have asked for a better mom. Happy Mothers Day!!!!
