Jared's Mishap

The Saturday after Austin's blessing day, Jared had a bit of a mishap cross country skiing with the scouts. He broke his ankle and since we don't make decisions very quickly around here we didn't go to insta-care until the last possible minute- we got there 5 minutes before it closed on Sunday Night after Jared had hobbled around church and taught his Young Men lesson sitting down. We just thought it was sprained and were very surprised when we heard it was broken. I'm pretty sure Jared's heart was broken along with it! No running for 12 weeks! Thankfully Jared got a walking boot but needless to say it's been a long 11 weeks at our house! Just 1 more week to go! Jared can't wait!

Austin's Blessing

On January 8, 2012 Jared gave Austin his name and blessing. It was a day I will never forget. I always imagined this day but never thought it would actually happen. Jared blessed Austin with a really sweet blessing and Austin didn't make a peep! I'm so grateful to have two sweet guys in my life! We had a really nice brunch at my parents after. I'm sad I didn't get more pictures of all that came. Jared and I both come from really supportive families. I just hope we can live up to even half the parents we both have!
