The Final Step..

Kyle will be having back surgery on November 5th, this has been a long time coming and we're very anxious for it. Not holding our breath for it to be the big "fix", but we are truly hoping it is. He's got a 50/50 chance of this working and taking away some pain.

They will do the surgery at 7:30 am and he will be in the hospital for two days. The surgery will be to remove his herniated disc (which continues to get worse) and fuse his back, this is all happening in his middle back and is extremely rare. Kyle is a one in a million case, too bad we can't have that kind of luck with the lottery!

Just please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as the 5th approaches and for a speedy recovery. He will only be off work for about a week, crazy to me that that's all the time he needs but also thankful for that!

Bathroom Makeover!!

I LOVE it, such a pain in my butt to do, but it was so worth it :)

My "Little Star"

Bella Jean is 4!!!

Happy birthday to the little princess I am so honored to call my daughter. Isabella Jean Griffin has brought more joy to my life than I ever could have imagined.


She has grown into quite the little lady, her sentences are fully understandable, along with her silly songs :) She is now doing tap and ballet and LOVES it. She definitely has her mothers' temper and stubborn attitude, but her sweet smile and goofiness are our own undoing. It's so unfair to have so much cuteness squeezed into one little body and have that to use against her parents ;)


No more horrible skin issues, she is up to 29 pounds and thriving. Preschool is going so well for her, I can't believe how smart she is some days.


We are so blessed and I've never known love like Bella has shown me. I feel I can get through anything in life, and believe me I've been tested like I never would have believed in the past six months. As long as I can see her smiling face, feel her tight little hugs and sweet little kisses, I can get through anything :)
