Spotlight: Jeanette & Paul

I have been anxiously waiting for Paul & Jeanette’s adoption profile to be approved so that I could spotlight them….and it finally is!

Click HERE to see their full profile.

I cannot say enough about this family. They are loved by so many friends and extended family, because they are just so awesome!

Paul has actually been my boss since moving to Utah. It has been great working for him…which to me says a lot! He is very positive and strives to make work fun for all of us.

I have gotten to spend time in their home on a few occasions and it has always been a fun time. Jeanette is a fabulous homemaker and such a great mom to her kids. I love hearing from Paul about all the funny events that go on in their household. Paul couldn’t be more proud of his “hot” wife and cute kids! (Paul frequently says “my wife is so freakin’ hot its unbelievable”)

Their two daughters are so adorable! Both are adopted. They have to be some of the most well-adjusted, happiest little girls I’ve ever met. They love their mom and dad and seem to have so much fun, everyday. They are best friends and it is so cute to see how Courtney adores her older sister, Marquessa.

I really admire Paul and Jeanette’s relationship. They are definitely the type of couple that ‘was made for each other.’ They are best friends and both hilarious.

They are very close with their extended families and spend lots of time with grandparents and cousins. A big, fun Mormon family.

They are excited to add to their family with another adoption and I am excited for them as well! Visit their profile for more details.

Babies :)

Hello everyone!

I just want to tell you all about my support for March of Dimes!

The money raised for March for Babies will help:
- support all-important research offering preventions and solutions for babies born too soon or with birth defects
- educate women on things they can do to increase their chances of having a healthy baby
- provide comfort and information to families with a newborn in intensive care
- push for newborn screening and health insurance for all pregnant women and children

Our company (Farmers Insurance) is a huge supporter of these events & so I get to be involved! We are having a Walk for the babies on April 30th in Provo Canyon, so if anyone can, please come!

If you are financially able to, please click on my link & donate...even $5 is great!
If you do it through my link, then Farmers will double (match) the donation!

MY PERSONAL LINK

Ever since E was born & I spent so much time in the NICU with all the teeny tiny babies, I have such a love for them! They are so precious & fighting for their lives everyday. So sweet. I loved seeing the mommies come in each day to nurse their babies and bottle feed them. Its so heart breaking to watch when they really don't know if the baby will make it. I basically cried watching them everyday...plus my emotions were all out of whack, so I pretty much didnt stop crying that whole week. Haha...well, donate if you can, or come do the walk with me! :)


Love Love.
