I am a wife to my wonderful husband Edward (Eddie, as you all know him), and a very lucky mom to cuties Logan, Gavin, and Ethan, and now a sweet baby girl, Lauryn. Our lives have been full of "All Things Boy". But now a little more pink and frill has been added to the mix, and I am so excited. It has been very fun having a little girl in our house, and the boys don't seem to mind. They are in LOVE with their new sister...we shall see if that love stays as she begins to crawl and get into their things! I still work as an RN in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, still love to scrappbook (now mostly digitally) and I can now call myself a runner after the couple of years and several races that I have had the opportunity to be a part of. Although it is hard and sometimes not so fun, I really do love running. That probably does not make any sense, but if you are a runner too, it is easy to understand! I recently have started back to the sport since Lauryn arrived, and of course my main focus these days is taking care of a family of 5 now. But I hope you enjoying catching a glimpse of the everyday fun we have around here, or in some days the chaos!!!
Much Love and Laughter,
Tracy

Our Sedona Hike
It has been one of Eddie's and my favorite things to do every fall season...drive to Sedona, AZ to see the Fall leaves changing. It is one of the prettiest times of the year, especially this area of Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon. There are only a few short weeks to "catch" the leaves changing their color before they fall off the their branches and sometimes it is hard to visit in the perfect window of time. We wanted to share our love with the kids this year and take them hiking on a family-friendly trail. The West Fork trail is perfect for all levels and ages and we just love it! The boys especially had so much fun. Logan's highlight was crossing the streams through the rocks and "slipping" into the water, getting his shoes and part of his pants wet...perfect place for boys to get all that energy out. And Ethan finally got to "hike" at the end of the trail when we were almost done. If we had let him out of the hiker any sooner, we would have taken three days to hike the 2 miles that we did. We are going to try and make this a family tradition every year. Here's to the next fall!!!
