Spring Break- The saga begins

By -

In honor of Spring Break and our 1st anniversary... YES we made it to a year everyone, so stop holding your breath... you look funny blue anyway. But... we decided to journey down to St. George and to warmer weather.



I know, you don't love to look at mileage like I do, but the proof that we traveled the distance is key to a successful road trip.


The empire of Logan and snowy weather struck moments after our car left the Salt Lake Valley. As the sunshine and warmer weather cruised into our view, the 13"+ began to fall on Logan... our home. And the weather we found was great!


We had the coolest FHE with our friends Amanda and Rick and Amanda's family. Thanks Judy! We had homemade Cafe Rio style burritos and then we made SCRIPTURE COOKIES!!! Coolest thing ever! Did you know that all of the ingredients to Oatmeal Raisin cookies are right within the contents of the standard works? Well, you do now!


Next, swimming in the highly chlorinated water of our FABULOUS hotel. We used Hotwire.com and got a STEAL of a deal! The water was fun and we even swam outside! At night!!! In March!!!! I suggest it to anyone who is feeling the downer of eternal winter... it is good for the soul!

She's here!

Hello Family and Friends! If you haven't heard yet, our little baby girl Adalyn was born Tuesday, March 15th at about 2pm. She was born by emergency C-section (they knocked Nicole all the way out because there wasn't time for anything else) and was under a lot of distress. After a wonderful blessing from her Grandpa Hicken and Daddy she was life flighted to McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden. She is still in the NICU there but is making great strides each and every day.  Her mommy and daddy named her Adalyn Julene Anderson-- after her great grandma Anderson (Julene). She has already blessed their lives immensely and she has benefited so much from prayers and fasts of family and friends. She has a long road ahead of her, but she is a fighter! Her grandpa Hicken calls her his little Millie- because she is a miracle baby and in Spanish, miracle is Milagro. She is a miracle and we are so happy to have her.  Love you all!

Delivery Day

By -
Well folks- it's D-Day! After talking some more and discussing with us- our doctors (a team of OBs and Perinatologists) have decided that it is best for baby boy not to have any risks with the placenta and come today. So- He's going to be very early- they will have completed the steroids though, so that is helpful. But we all feel that this is the very best thing for HIM. I'll have a c-section- hopefully regular this time- this afternoon and we will have a baby boy by this evening. He will go straight to the NICU and we'll just see how he does to know more about how long he will be there. Again, thank you all for your comments, prayers, texts, phone calls. We appreciate all of you and your love and support for us! Love you all- remember we are in His hands. And who's better to be in.
