Missing in Action

I know it's been a long while since my last post. I can assure you that our lives have gotten way hectic now that school has started. I will try to post some pics and update everyone sometime this week so please check back! Hugs and Kisses....the Hess Family.

What a Blessing

On Feb. 1st, Kent was able to give Evan his newborn blessing. You could tell Kent was nervous, but the blessing he gave was wonderful. Evan didn't make a peep...he slept the whole time. His Nana had his cute little blessing outfit made for him. Since he's such a chunk, he barely fit it on his blessing day. I thought for sure it was going to rip trying to get it on him. Once on him though, he was such a handsome little guy. He is truly a blessing to our family and we all love him...especially his big sister Gracie.

Playing Catch Up!!

Wow, it seems that times flies by too quickly to even wonder where the time even went! Since our last posting we've celebrated Ava's 4th birthday and Gracie's 2nd birthday, dressed up for Halloween, celebrated the birth of our new baby Evan, enjoyed the wonderful food at Thanksgiving, celebrated the birth of our Savior during this past Christmas season, and watched Katelin enjoy her first sleepover for her 9th birthday party. So where does time go? The only reasoning I can come up with is that of making new memories and remembering the old.

Every day that goes by we encounter something new, different, exciting...anything, that has a lasting effect on every single one of us. It's up to us to decide how we want to use our time. This year Kent and I along with our children made some individual and family goals, which we believe will help our family become closer to each other and to the Lord. We are so thankful for families and are grateful to all of you who love and support us.
