The Rukus Room

The Rukus room has a whole bunch of different blow up slides and playgrounds for kids. Our ward sent me an email saying Tuesdays are a dollar for kids so Patrick and I took Jaxston to check it out. He was really unsure at first but after a few minutes he started loving it! His favorite thing there was the big blue slide. It has a ladder going up one side and the slide on the other. He went up and down at least 20 times haha he loved it!

about our family . . .

Patrick and i were sealed for time and all eternity on march 23 of 2007 in the Salt Lake Temple. We went to California on our honeymoon to DisneyLand and Six Flags. We had so much fun screaming on all of the rides at six flags. I even passed out on the Galiath . . . haha it was kinda funny :) about six months later we found out i was having a baby! I came home from work to tell Patrick and right after i told him there was that little earth quake. . . we thought someone ran into our apartment. haha. Jaxston was born on April 29th of 2008. He was pretty much bald but he was so cute and we were so excited to have him in our lives! On January 1st of 2009 i found out i was pregnant again! We were both shocked. It was not planned and i had a hard time with it. But i figured God must need me to have this child for some good reason so i was ok after a while. Dominic was born on August 21st of 2009. It was a scary delivery. He was in the breech position and had to do a C-section. He had the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck 3 times and had to do CPR on him. Everything was ok and im glad he is here! He had a head full of dark hair and we didn't think he was ours! I wouldn't take him back for the world. Things have been so great, Jaxston loves his little brother. He always wants to give him kisses and pet his hair.
